Aberdeen students learn valuable life lessons on trip to Ecuador

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca Nineteen Aberdeen Composite School students had the unique opportunity to experience a new culture that will forever change their lives during a trip to Ecuador, June 30 to July 12.

The trip was co-organized

by EF tours (Education First) and Free the Children (FTC) organizations designed to give students an opportunity to learn about culture, practice leadership skills and carry out meaningful service projects in A Free the Children “Adopt a Village” community.

The trip included students from Grade 7 to 12 and chaperones from the local community. The school spent two years fundraising for the trip, which was originally supposed to be Kenya, but was cancelled the day before by FTC because of terrorism fears in the northern part of the country.

The sudden change in schedule meant four of the original 23 students who fundraised for the April trip could not make it, but Ecuador didn’t leave anyone disappointed, said teacher Kel-

Travel was on foot.

They talked to each other, played cards, wrote in each other’s journals. It was very freeing for them to be disconnected from wifi and the Internet because it really allowed them to be present on the trip where we were.”

The purpose of their trip was to help build a local school 9000 feet above sea level in the capital city of Quito in the Andes Mountains. The students helped finish ten layers of a brick wall, build four columns and painted 190 roof tiles.

White said the only time kids complained was when it was time to leave the work site.

“They wanted to An Aberdeen Composite School student helps smooth out concrete to a wall that will soon hold 475 students in Equador work and do more and when they got li White. and value what they have a the opportunity to mix ce “When students go to othlittle bit more,” said White. ment, paint tiles they could er places and see how oth“On the entire trip there see that they were actualer people meet their daily was no wifi, no one had ly contributing to the comneeds they come home very their cell phones to check munity and it was actually thankful for what they have email or text each other. making a difference. It was

very empowering for the kids,” said White.

Students landed and visited Ecuador’s capital city of Quito, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site; the province of Chimborazo; and when they were not helping to build a school they also visited with locals in an attempt to build relationships, which White said was a very rewarding experience.

“They spent half a day learning how an indigenous local women’s group use their sheep as a source of income. The kids got to sheer sheep and spin wool,”said White.

“The kids bought items from her and they went with another lady who walks miles to cut alfalfa for her pig and cow. They also planted potatoes and all together did three full days of service.”

It wasn’t all about learning leadership skills and work. The kids also discovered that language is never a barrier for being social, which they discovered when White, the students and Equadorian workers staged a soccer game and a dance party with local residents.

White said students also had the unique opportunity to witness democracy in action early on in their trip when a protest surrounded the hotel they were staying in.

“We knew prior that there were protests going on and they had all been reported peaceful. There was no danger to being in that area but there were ongoing protests about tax increases and a number of other things,” said White.

“We realized what we had to do was get out and walk with the protest past our hotel. So everyone grabbed a buddy, we locked arms, and we got in.”

On the return home White said students were already excited and planning to fundraise their next service learning trip, which will be to Nicaragua in 2017.

White said the Ecuador trip was a life changing experience.

“I’m a big believer in learning from place and people and I think the kids will remember this more than some slide show or video or lesson I could give them in class. It is invaluable,” said White.

Corman Park approves Christmas Properties development

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca The RM of Corman Park approved a rezoning application by developer Christmas Properties to rezone a parcel of land located at the corner of Highway 219 and Grasswood Road, south of Saskatoon, during a council meeting July 20.

The approval brought an end to a heavily-contested debate between the developer and local land owners who say rezoning the land from DC2 to DC1 would lead to pollution concerns and limit the view of adjacent properties because of commercial buildings.

They also said the development would cause drainage issues and increase traffic in the area.

The debate started in 2011 when the developer first applied to rezone the land, which led to a series of council, planning committee delegations over the next three years from both parties including a public consultation process where the developer was turned down twice.

After the developer filed a statement of claim against the RM of Corman Park in September, 2014 a mediation meeting was set up between both parties to come

up with a solution.

Keith Morton is one of 40 landowners who live adjacent to the proposed Christmas Properties development.

During a public hearing to amend a bylaw to rezone the parcel of land to DC1 at the July 20 council meeting, Morton said residents were left in the dark during the mediation process.

“What I see is a developer getting what he wants at the expense of the residents on this quarter-section,” said Morton.

“Again it brings up the question of what happened during the mediation pro-

cess and who is looking after the interests of residents of Division 2.”

Morton said he asked RM of Corman Park Administrator Adam Tittemore for a transcript of the developer’s statement of claim during the mediation process, but was not given any names of the individuals involved in the claim.

The developer’s reason for rezoning the land from DC2 to DC1 was to allow for more commercial development on as many as six lots.

In the original application the number of allowable uses was modified, said Crosby Hanna and As-

sociates representative for Christmas Properties Jim Walters.

“There are some significant differences in this application. I guess the biggest difference is that we are not looking for a straight DC1.

“Through the zoning contract there are 14 uses like wholesale, trade, auction facility that have been taken out so the actual number of uses that could go in there have gone down from 25 to 9,” said Walters.

Morton said during his statement to council that any decision to approve rezoning goes against a 1967 Saskatchewan Land Titles

Morton also said if this agreement is breached the RM will be responsible for damages.

However, Tittemore said that covenant had an end date of 1977.

Morton said he was disappointed by Corman Park’s decision and said the behaviour of council during the entire process should raise alarm bells for residents of Corman Park.

Dalmeny athlete shines in Canada’s gold medal victory

TERRY PUGH | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

Megan Gurski of Dalmeny is embraced by her mother, Corina, at the Saskatoon airport on Monday, July 27. Gurski won a gold medal as a member of the Canadian national women’s softball team at the Pan Am Games

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca “Fear the Leaf!”

The Canadian national women’s softball team found the perfect motto, and the perfect mix, as they captured a gold medal at the Pan American Games in Toronto last week.

Dalmeny’s Megan Gurski, 21, was one of the players on the all-star squad which beat the United States 4-2 in extra innings on Sunday, July 26 to seal the championship.

“It was an incredible, crazy experience,” said Gurski.

“When we got that last out we were just freaking out, and my voice was completely gone. I still can’t believe it.”

In an interview moments after stepping off the plane at the Saskatoon airport on Monday, July 27, where she was greeted by proud family members, Gurski said the final game was the toughest of the week-long tournament.

“We literally put everything we had out there,” she said. “We went into the game with the attitude that we have nothing to lose. We all stuck together as a team and we just put all our energy into it. We just had the belief that we were going to

do it, and we came out on top.”

The victory was sweeter because it provided some payback for two earlier losses to the Americans in round-robin games. The Canucks lost 7-0 to the Stars and Stripes on Tuesday, July 21, and fell 5-2 to the US on Friday, July 24.

Those were the only defeats for the Canadians, though, as they beat Brazil 6-0; Cuba 5-0; Dominican Republic 9-7; and Puerto Rico 1-0 in the round robin.

The Canadians beat Puerto Rico 7-3 in the semi-final to earn the right to play in the championship game.

The US, meanwhile cruised through the round robin without a loss and were the favourite heading into the gold medal final.

Gurski said the team gelled quickly after a tentative start.

“At the beginning we were kind of shaky, but once we realized that, we said, ‘hey guys, we need to suck it up a little,’ and we started coming together,” said Gurski.

“Our motto was ‘Fear the Leaf!’ We stuck together and stuck to our game plan and pulled it off.”

She said the Canadian team dealt with the pressure one inning at a time.

Megan Gurski with her Pan Am Games gold medal “Our first game against Brazil we came out of the chute and started hammering at them,” she said.

Gurski said the team utilized its strength to best advantage. Kind of like a beaver tackling a big tree. Just keep gnawing and it’ll topple sooner or later.

“We’re not a big home-run hitting team,” she said. “We get base hits, we get our bunts down and we do what we can do. We chip away a little at a time.”

Bethany College board ponders potential for revised program

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Three months after the final classes graduated from Bethany College, supporters of the 88-year-old Bible College in Hepburn are exploring the possibility of offering a modified educational program as early as next year.

Bethany College Board Chair Trevor Rempel of Hepburn said the objective

of any future program is to develop disciples and train leaders.

“Basically, any program would have to accomplish two things,” said Rempel in an interview. “First, it would focus on discipleship training; and second, it would provide a culturally relevant, theologically-based framework that equips young people to become more independent.”

Rempel said students today are looking for “handson experiences” rather than strictly academic instruction, and any new program has to reflect that.

“Young people want to make their religion or theology applicable to the real world,” said Rempel. “So that is going to be a key context for any new program. It has to be grounded in everyday life and have a practi-

cal, hands-on component.”

facility not for sale

Rempel said the future of the college buildings and property has not yet been decided.

“The facility itself is not up for sale,” said Rempel.

“The board has decided that we will not move to liquidate the facility or any of its assets at this point.

“We want to explore all

our options as we develop this potential program, and determine whether it will fly or not,” he said.

Rempel said there is an “underlying hope” that any new program will be able to utilize the existing Bethany College facility.

“But we don’t want the facility to dictate the program,” he added. “We don’t want to tie ourselves in at the expense of providing the

right program to young people. If the program fits, then we will continue to be able to use this fantastic facility.

But if the program doesn’t fit, then we’ll make a decision on the future of the facility at that time.”

As currently envisioned, the new program would be split into two different tracks.

PUBLIC NOTICE

Public notice is hereby given that the Council of the Rural Municipality of Corman Park No. 344 intends to adopt a bylaw under The Planning and Development Act, 2007 to amend Bylaw No. 22/10, known as the Corman Park – Saskatoon Planning District Official Community Plan.

The future of the Bethany College facility in Hepburn has not yet been determined Continued from page 3

Meeting the needs of a changing culture “It’s not a linear two-year program,” he said. “It’s two different one-year programs. You could do one or the other or both in whatever order you want.”

Rempel said one program track “is more community-based learning, which is similar to the type of college Bethany has been, where you do classroom learning, but in various modules. A large portion would be outside the classroom, where you would be learning in different venues or environments. It would be less academic in the sense of fewer assignments and tests and so on.”

The second program would be more of a missiontype program that would be delivered mostly by one or more partners.

“We don’t have the capacity to run these types of missions ourselves, so that’s why we’re looking at potential partnerships to provide our students with hands-on experiences,” he said.

public consultations

tential program that could fill the gap left by the closure of Bethany College past the board of directors,” said Rempel. “They had a very good concept. The board members were very excited by the vision elements that were presented, and endorsed this group to flesh out these ideas.”

After classes ended in April, a working committee consisting of board members and committee members was formed to develop the objectives and iron out the details of the program.

The college board approved a budget that is dependent on outside fundraising.

Key to the fundraising and the success of any future program is public involvement, said Rempel.

“An important part of whether this is going to hit the mark of what is needed next is going to be that we make sure we ground this within the broader constituency,” said Rempel. “We want to talk broadly and openly with potential stu-

dents, their families and the community as a whole.

“Public consultations will be a very important part of meeting the needs of a changing culture.”

He said the program will have a practical focus.

“This is not to say the program would not count toward a certain number of academic credits if students want to continue in postsecondary education,” he said.

Rempel said the board will make a decision on whether to introduce the program in the near future.

“The intent is that by the end of this year, we hope to have this to a point where the board can make a decision on whether this is a program we want to try and make fly next year or not,” he said. “Currently, we don’t know whether this means we’re opening up next fall or whether we will need another year.

“But the intent is to have a really good, well-developed program.”

Rempel said the idea for a modified program was put forward earlier this year by a group of college alumni and other Bethany supporters.

“They ran the idea of a po-

Saskatchewan doctors ratify new contract

A new four year contract has been ratified by Saskatchewan physicians.

The contract agreement covers the period April 1, 2013 to March 31, 2017. Approximately 90 per cent of physicians voted in favour of the agreement.

Over four years, the agreement provides physicians with a total fee increase of 4.9 per cent, along with 3 per cent in one-time lump sum payments.

As a result of the agreement, funding for medical services and programs will increase by approximately $85 million over the four year agreement.

The agreement provides investments in programs to support increased patient access to medical services, best practice and standardized care.

As well, it continues a strong emphasis on rural Saskatchewan and supports overall success in recruiting and retaining physicians in the province.

PUBLIC NOTICE Public notice is hereby given that the Council of the Rural Municipality of Corman Park No. 344 intends to adopt a bylaw under The Planning and Development Act, 2007 to amend Bylaw No. 23/10, known as the Corman Park – Saskatoon Planning District Zoning Bylaw.

Warman’s Garden of Eden

Volunteers create little Garden of Eden for Warman care home residents

Martensville youth leader heads to El Salvador

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A Martensville High School student is one of eight Saskatchewan youth leaders heading to El Salvador for two weeks as part of a first-hand learning experience on international development issues.

Brittany Flegel served as President of the Students Representative Council (SRC) at Martensville High School last year, while she was in Grade 11.

“I’ve always been interested in international issues and human development work,” said Flegel in a phone interview from Regina on Thursday, July 23.

“I’m really excited about this trip because it’s an experience of a lifetime.”

The trip is organized by the Saskatchewan Council for International Cooperation (SCIC) as part of its Global Citizenship Education program, designed to inspire Saskatchewan youth and teachers to think and act as global citizens.

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca You can’t see it from the street, but there’s a little Garden of Eden nestled just behind the Warman Mennonite Special Care Home (WMSCH).

‘Anna’s Garden’ is a focal point for residents and their families, where they can enjoy the spring air, summer sunshine, and fall colours. With its manicured lawn, central gazebo, wheel-chair-accessible walking paths adorned with brightly-coloured flowers and edible fruits and vegetables; the garden has made a huge difference in the quality of life for residents at the home.

It wasn’t always like this, though.

Eight years ago, the small outdoor courtyard was a tangle of overgrown weeds in an otherwise barren patch of dirt.

That’s when Abe and Eva Buhler of Warman stepped in.

The couple rolled up their sleeves and devoted countless hours of labour over the years to create a little piece of paradise. After taking a break last year, Abe, 77, and Eva, 76, are back at work again this summer, tending the garden, cutting the grass and pulling weeds.

But it’s their final tour of duty. They plan on retiring from the job this fall.

“We are getting a little tired,” said Abe. “The weeds here are really ferocious. You have to be on them all the time.

We’d like to take a little time off to do some travelling while we still have our health.”

On Thursday, July 23, the staff and residents of the care home honoured Abe and Eva Buhler’s contributions with a special presentation to the couple at an open house and barbecue in the garden.

“This garden is a direct result of the labour of volunteers,” said WMSCH Administrator Jim Wiebe. “Basically Abe and Eva are the ones who did all the work, and we thank them for all their hard work.”

WMSCH Activities Director Zelma Peters said the garden is a “hidden gem” that has brightened the lives of residents in so many ways.

“God has given you a wonderful gift and you have applied it with love,” said Peters. “Thank you so much.”

Peters said the home is looking for other volunteers to step in and take on the role of caring for the garden, but admitted whoever comes forward will have some pretty big shoes to fill.

The WMSCH hosts a fundraising bake sale every spring to cover the cost of seeds, fertilizer and other inputs for the garden. The funds raised are also used to purchase other amenities such as tables and chairs.

Eva said she and Abe purchase seeds and bedding plants and haul them to the garden in their own vehicle. “I like picking out the plants,” she said. “But we don’t really plan things out ahead of time. We just pick out something that looks good in the greenhouse and then we stick them here and hope for the best. It’s kind of random, really.”

She said she prefers petunias because they’re a hardy plant that can resist both drought and flooding.

Abe said he usually comes to the garden twice a day to weed and water. “We have underground sprinklers but they don’t cover everything,” he said. “You have to do the corners and stuff, and the weeds are always looking at you too.”

Lessons for Alberta from Vancouver’s Translink Tax Referendum

By Paige MacPherson Alberta Director for the Canadian Taxpayers Federation

COMMENTARY

The most important thing about Vancouver’s recent Translink tax referendum was that there was a referendum at all. On this, Alberta Premier Rachel Notley should take note.

The people in the lower mainland of BC recently voted 62 per cent against a 0.5 per cent municipal sales tax hike to fund the regional transit authority’s expansion plan. The tax hike had been proposed by the mayor’s council of the 21 municipalities that make up the Metro Vancouver region.

Before, during and after the vote, some have argued the vote was a waste of time and money. If the result had been an overwhelming yes – showing the public was in lockstep with the local mayors’ plans – one could more reasonably make that point.

The result, however, was a resounding no.

Therein lies the lesson for Premier Notley and other politicians considering giving or gaining new taxing powers. Votes on game-changing new taxes are crucial. Forcing them on city residents might leave you on the wrong end of public opinion.

As Edmonton and Calgary are asking the province for more tax powers, Premier Notley has the moral imperative to respect this.

In BC, Premier Christy Clark necessitated the vote.

Even though she was in favour of the Translink tax, Clark made a commitment that if Vancouver-area mayors wanted to impose a municipal sales tax, they’d better have residents’ consent first.

Mayors, unionists, business groups and environmentalists spent about $6.7 million of mostly taxpayer dollars campaigning for the ‘YES’ side, outspending the ‘NO’ side 150-to-one.

The ‘NO’ side, led by Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) BC Director Jordan Bateman, spent about $40,000 voluntary dollars for their campaign.

Most on the NO side like public transit. In fact, Bateman released a detailed plan during the campaign showing how to expand transit without raising taxes.

For many NO voters, the question was whether they should to give more of their hard-earned money to an irresponsible transit authority that already receives busloads of tax dollars.

Edmonton mayor Don Iveson was vocal about the vote immediately after the results came in. He called the outcome “terribly shortsighted” and said he’s glad our new Alberta government is “unambiguously pro transit investment.” Iveson said it was “silly to put it to referendum in the first place.”

The National Post editorial board, which urged readers to vote yes to the Translink Tax, perfectly summed up the post-vote sour grapes of Mayor Iveson and others: “That some are now inclined to blame the public for their defeat, or to conclude that the failure of the voters to give them the answer they sought proves they should never have been asked, probably helps explain the result. An enormous reservoir of distrust has built up between the political class and the public in this country, in part because of attitudes like this. People can sense when they are being patronized, and they tend not to take it well.”

Like in Vancouver, Calgary and Edmonton have infrastructure goals. The crucial question we could soon face is whether historic new taxes must be imposed to pay for it?

Alberta’s big city mayors have been pushing for city charters for some time. These special agreements between the province and cities could give mayors and council new tax powers.

Calgary city council is currently considering options for how to fund their transit and infrastructure plans, one of which was a sales tax – but they’d need provincial approval. Sound familiar?

In the past, former Alberta premiers have told Alberta mayors to put such new tax powers to the people in a referendum. Curiously, the cities chose not to.

Now, there’s a new sheriff in town and she’s expressed willingness to give cities the ‘tools they need.’ BC’s premier respected the people, and Premier Notley should too. If she wants to dip into our toolboxes, it’s only neighbourly to ask first.

To be clear, Premier Brad Wall thinks as a politician first; one true to his beliefs and also true to the foremost cause of getting elected.

That sometimes means saying and doing things that not only please the masses but please the base. It also often means making highly partisan statements.

And as premier; in fact, now the longest serving premier among the current lot; Wall has not been shy about using the avails of his office to accomplish his political goals.

We saw that in the horrific judgment this spring when Wall’s communication office released unproven allegations involving a health care aide’s employment record after the worker complained about the care of seniors in a Saskatoon nursing home.

Most of the charges post-dated the worker’s trip to the legislature where he registered his complaints.

We even saw it during the recent horrific forest fire situation in the north, where Wall lavished praised on La Ronge Mayor Thomas Sierzycki (who happens to be the Saskatchewan Party candidate in the north) while his government roundly igANGELA HEIDEL

nored the concerns from La Ronge Band Chief Tammy Cook-Searson about the failure to get qualified northerners fighting the fires.

How petty things sometimes become in politics was evident when the government issued a release scolding NDP Opposition leader Cam Broten for supposedly making an unannounced visit to an evacuation centre in Cold Lake, Alberta; the same politicking Wall was doing. Broten had asked permission and was invited.

But let us understand that Wall is hardly the first politician to think and act like a politician.

New NDP leader Rachel Notley; daughter of formerNDP leader Grant Notley; approaches matters no differently.

So the clash between the new NDP Premier from Alberta and the conservativeminded Premier from Saskatchewan might have been an inevitability at their first meeting at the Premiers’

conference in St. John’s, Newfoundland.

Both could have behaved better.

Wall commented before leaving: “Maybe we need to have equalization payments start flowing through the pipeline in order to finally get one approved through central Canada.” From a premier of Saskatchewan; a province that needed Ontario’s support in the equalization formula for most of its history; it was more than a little arrogant and hypocritical.

Nor did it really capture the humility of this province or Brad Wall himself.

That said, Notley did not do herself proud either by suggesting Wall was simply “showboating” or “standing in the corner throwing a tantrum.” (Long gone are the days when an NDP Saskatchewan premier like Allan Blakeney and a Progressive Conservative Alberta premier like Peter Lougheed could go to these meetings demonstrating a united front for the West.)

This is where the problems begin. And notwithstanding that Wall could have represented his province and himself better, he represented his constitu-

ents much better than Notley did. In fact, Wall represented Alberta constituents much better than Notley did.

Remember: this started as a result of a comment by Quebec premier Philippe Couillard that perhaps Alberta needed to get its house in order when it came to oilsands greenhouse gas emissions before Quebec approved an east-west pipeline.

Maybe Wall’s response wasn’t a perfect one, but Couillard’s comment was one that truly required a response of some sort.

Notley’s response that polite conversation; essentially placating Couillard’s cheap shot and appealing to the NDP-left that Thomas Mulcair will be catering to come the Oct. 19 federal vote; was far worse than Wall’s arguably over-the-top reaction.

If it is Notley’s position that Wall shouldn’t be “showboating” or “throwing a tantrum” by dictating environmental issues to Quebec and Ontario, surely Quebec and Ontario shouldn’t be dictating environment concerns to Alberta and the West.

That’s not being political.

That’s simply representing those who have elected you.

NEWS & PHOTO SUBMISSION TIPS

The Clark’s Crossing Gazette welcomes the submission of news stories, photos, letters or any other information that would be of interest to the readers of this newspaper.

NEWS OR SPORTS STORIES

If you or someone you know has been involved in an event you think is newsworthy, please include your name and contact information (either a daytime telephone number and/or email address). Please send the information in a timely manner following the event and remember to include as much pertinent information as possible, including the following:

1. WHO was involved?

2. WHAT was the event?

3. WHEN and WHERE did the event occur?

4. WHY was the event important?

PHOTO GUIDELINES & TIPS

All the information that goes with a news story should also accompany photo(s) as above. Include the names of all the people in each photo and identify from left to right and from back to front.

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.

she’s quickly boning up on the region’s history, culture and language.

“I wish I knew how to speak Spanish,” she said.

“I think it would really help me connect better with the local people. But we have a translator, and I’m sure we’ll all learn a lot

of the language while we’re there.”

“This new program is an opportunity for local youth to connect with the work of Saskatchewan nongovernmental organizations around the world,” said Steffany Salloum, Public Engagement Offi-

cer with SCIC. “While in El Salvador, the youth will meet with staff and volunteers, as well as community members and youth who have benefited from the programs to address HIV/ AIDS awareness, gender equality, and Indigenous rights.”

PUBLIC NOTICE

Public notice is hereby given that the Council of the Rural Municipality of Corman Park No. 344 intends to adopt a bylaw under The Planning and Development Act, 2007 to amend Bylaw No. 9/94, known as the RM of Corman Park Zoning Bylaw.

INTENT a) The proposed Bylaw No. 32/15 will rezone from Agricultural District (AG) to Agricultural Residential 1 District (AR1) the lands described below. Proposed Bylaw No. 32/15 will provide for the creation of a new residential yard site. b) The proposed Bylaw No. 33/15 will rezone from Agricultural District (AG) to Agricultural Residential 1 District (AR1) the lands described below. Proposed Bylaw No. 33/15 will provide for the creation of a new residential yard site. c) The proposed Bylaw No. 34/15 will rezone from Agricultural District (AG) to Commercial District (C), by contract rezoning agreement the lands described below.

NOMINATED BY SCHOOL

The high school students were nominated by their teachers for their demonstrated leadership qualities, earning them the chance to travel to El Salvador.

“I believe strongly in fighting for equality for all people in any situation,” said Flegel. “And I am one to exercise my beliefs when given the chance.”

Flegel was nominated last March as a participant for the program by Miss Bouchard, her French teacher at Martensville High School.

“Each high school can nominate one Grade 11 student,” said Flegel. “And she asked me to apply. I talked to my parents, and they thought it would be cool for me to go, so I wrote an application and I was accepted.”

The selection process included references from teachers and also interviews with the potential participants’ parents.

Flegel’s academic marks, extra-curricular activities at school and her work in the community all contributed to her selection.

Flegel said she was a member of Project Change, the club at Martensville High School devoted to helping charitable causes both locally and globally, while she was in Grade 9 and 10. But last year, with her responsibilities as President of the SRC and her involvement in the school’s drama program, she had to reduce her participation in that club. But she still heartily endorses its activities and goals.

She said she’s looking to apply what she learns in El Salvador in the Canadian context when she returns home.

“The idea is to look at the big picture by focusing on local issues,” said Flegel.

We’re looking at how we can help in El Salvador and apply that in our own country and around the world.”

She said she really didn’t know much about Latin America prior to being selected for this program, but

Saskatoon Tigers win provincial Women’s Senior C softball crown Chetty’s Pretty Boys capture Men’s Senior C championship

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The Saskatoon Tigers cruised to their first provincial Senior Women’s C softball championship on Sunday, July 26 with a 7-4 win over the Saskatoon Mystics.

“We were pretty confident heading into the tournament,” said Tigers head coach Lawrence Beatty.

“But I kind of say that hesitantly, because we didn’t really know what to expect. It was the first time we had entered C provincials.

“And quite frankly, it was all we could handle.”

The Tigers’ last experience in a provincial competition was at the Senior B level two years ago, and it wasn’t pleasant.

“We didn’t do that well,” said Beatty. “But we went into this tournament in pretty good shape, with three solid pitchers and a great catcher, Rebecca Gurski. She caught every game and did a great job for us.

She’s a tough kid.”

Rebecca Gurski’s older sister, Megan, was busy winning a gold medal for Canada as a member of the national women’s softball team at the Pan Am Games in Toronto on Sunday, July 26.

The Saskatoon Mystics had earlier downed the Saskatoon Grizzlies, coached by Roy Bedient of Warman, by a score of 7-2 in the semi-final.

A total of 10 teams competed in the women’s tournament.

MEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP

The Chetty’s Pretty Boys from Ochapowace First Nation near Whitewood won the provincial Senior Men’s C championship the same weekend. The Pretty Boys beat the Pipestone Pirates

by a score of 13-9 in the gold medal final.

The Saskatoon Tigers and Chetty’s Pretty Boys are competing in the western Canadian tournament in Winnipeg in August.

Both the men’s and women’s tournaments were played at the Gordon Howe Park softball complex in Saskatoon.

The Warman Gems and Hanley Merchants were among 16 men’s teams vying for the title.

The Hanley Merchants made it as far as the tournament semi-final before losing 11-3 to the Pipestone Pirates. The Gems lost all three of their round robin games and were eliminated from playoffs.

Beatty, one of the organizers of the joint men’s and women’s tournament, said there were more teams than expected on the men’s side.

“We had 16 teams, which was a lot,” said Beatty. “It was great to see that many teams. The level of competition was really great and I think the fans got their money’s worth.”

The Bulyea Rustlers won the provincial Senior Men’s B title by default this year.

Gurski adds Pan Am gold medal to impressive collection

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Barry Gurski received a couple of pretty special birthday presents from his daughters this week.

While one daughter, Megan, was winning a gold medal as a member of the national women’s softball team at the Pan Am Games in Toronto on Sunday, July 26; another daughter, Rebecca, was capturing a provincial championship as a member of the Saskatoon Tigers softball squad.

The Tigers won the Saskatchewan Senior Women’s C championship with a 7-4 victory over the Saskatoon Mystics on Sunday, July 26 in Saskatoon.

“This pretty much tops it for me,” said Barry Gurski in an interview at the Saskatoon airport on Monday, July 27 while awaiting Megan’s arrival from Toronto. “It’s a big day for our family. I’m very proud of both of them.”

Gurski coached his daughters in softball until they reached bantam age. Megan is an all-star pitcher and all-round positional player, while Rebecca found her niche as a back catcher.

Gurski said Megan showed a natural ability for softball at a very young age.

“We noticed right away when she was younger,”

said Gurski. “My wife, Corina, and I played a lot of ball, and Megan always wanted to be on the field. Right from an early age we always had a glove and a bat for her and she showed that she had some skill there. We just worked with her and encouraged her as she grew up.”

Over the years, Megan played her minor ball in Saskatoon. She won numerous city and provincial championships, as well as two western Canadian titles.

But talent wasn’t the only attribute that accounted for her success.

“She really loves the game,” said Gurski. “That’s the most important thing and that was how she got to where she is today. She just loves playing.”

While earning her mark as a pitcher, Megan is valuable for her team because of her versatility.

“She didn’t pitch much for Team Canada in this tournament,” said Gurski. “But she’s a positional player too.

We made sure she played other positions; and she can hit as well, so that she could be around really good players.”

The Gurski family moved to Dalmeny three years ago.

Gurski said the lack of television coverage of women’s softball was disappoint-

ing, but they were able to keep up on scores and stats on the internet.

The final two games of the tournament were streamed online, but Megan’s parents missed the semi-final against Puerto Rico because they weren’t aware it was being broadcast.

“We did watch the gold medal final against the US, though,” said Gurski. “It was very exciting; a very close game. I was literally on the edge of my seat because it was 0-0 going into

CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE • THURSDAY, JULY 30, 2015

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, “A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the birds are singing ... and the lawn mower is broken."....JAMES DENT It was predicted we would see a hot and dry summer in Saskatchewan and that is exactly what we have seen. The lazy days of summer have begun but not for the City of Warman. Construction season is in full swing, many of the big projects are now under way and others are slated to start soon. With construction comes street closures and detours please be patient as this maintenance and work is necessary.

I want to extend a big thank you to our Fire Department for all their efforts up north, our community is fortunate to have such dedicated individuals that are willing to help our neighbors in need. I also want to acknowledge all of the men and women who have been hard at work helping contain fires as well as providing support to those who have been displaced. The cooperation by so many to help those who have been affected by the fires is amazing.

The very last Remembers Air Show took place July 11-12 at Auto Clearing Motor Speedway. Warman was very well represented as well, with many residents and our Warman Fire Department in attendance. The pictures posted after the event were great and the weather was perfect.

The Warman Canada Day celebrations were a big hit once again!

Many families were in attendance taking in the breakfast, music and events. The day ended with a great outdoor movie and an amazing display of fireworks.

Thank you to all of the individuals from the Recreation

Department who worked tirelessly to ensure our City and its residents had a great Canada Day! Respectfully Submitted by: Mayor Sheryl Spence The Finance and Administration Committee has made strides in developing a 5 Year Capital Plan.

This Capital Plan will provide guidance to the future direction of the City, ensuring that short term wants are not detracting from the future needs of our growing City. The 5 Year Capital Plan will include major infrastructure projects, capital acquisitions for our protective services, additions and improvements to the City’s Parks and Recreation facilities, among other items.

Additionally, the Finance and Administration Committee has been working to develop a Reserve Policy that will work hand in hand with the 5 year Capital Plan. Incorporated into both the Reserve Policy and the 5 Year Capital Plan, are initiatives to fund reserves for future capital projects, along with allocations to replace existing equipment and infrastructure. The development of proper policy and multiyear planning will enable the City of Warman to maintain and improve the financial position of the City and appropriately address the overall current and future initiatives of the City.

months with all interested partners including Warman, Martensville and the R.M. of Corman Park. On June 24, 2015 a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for a joint RCMP detachment facility was signed. The MOU makes it official that the region will be working toward building a new facility. Moving forward, the next steps to seeing this building come to fruition is to have a feasibility study done. To do this Administration from Warman and Martensville are busy determining the terms of reference. The next meeting to discuss the progress is Thursday, September 17, 2015.

In the last month and a half we have had the pleasure of being part of two presentations to citizens of the City of Warman.

Marshall Seed and Kimm Barker, both went above and beyond in protecting fellow community member’s lives and property. This quick response and commitment to helping others is truly amazing. We are so fortunate to live in a community where neighbors help neighbors. Thank you to both individuals for your quick actions!

Respectfully Submitted by: Councilor Trevor Peterson 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.

From all of us on Warman City Council

Respectfully Submitted by: Councilor Kevin Tooley One of the main focuses for the Protective Services Committee has been the planning of a joint municipal RCMP detachment for Warman and Martensville. A series of discussions have occurred over the past

OUTDOOR WATER CONSERVATION REDUCE YOUR USE Saskatchewan residents DOUBLE their water use during the summer months. The major concern with outdoor water use is that the water used RARELY makes it back to the source! We use water to wash cars, clean decks, wash driveways, fill swimming pools, and water lawns and gardens. By changing our attitudes, actions and using some simple technologies, we can dramatically reduce our water consumption during the summer.

TIMERS Timers over watering of lawns is a major source of water waste each year. Over-watering weakens a plant’s root system and drains away nutrients from the soil. An average lawn requires 2.5 cm of water per week (less if it has rained). To know when to water, look at your lawn. If it becomes slightly discoloured, it is time to water.

To determine how long to water, place a 2.5 cm tall container on the lawn. Turn on the sprinklers and keep track of the amount of time it takes to fill the container. This is the amount of time you should water your lawn. TIP: a small salmon or tuna can works great! Install and set a timer to prevent accidental over watering. $ Dollars and Eco sense ¢ Half the water that we use outdoors is lost through runoff and evaporation! That water is lost from our lakes, rivers and aquifers. This increases demand for water and threatens our watersheds as well as our pocketbooks.

Increase in break-ins Chamber of Commerce happy that prompts warning from Workers Comp surplus to be paid back Saskatoon police The Saskatoon Police are again advising the public to ensure that windows and doors are secure to businesses and residences.

Police have seen a 42% increase in break-ins to businesses compared to last year. There were 56 break and enters to residences in May and 81 in June. Investigators have found that in many recent break and en-

15

ters to homes, the suspect gained access through open or insecure windows.

Police wish to advise home and business owners to ensure that doors along with windows are closed, locked and that if there is a security system in place, it is activated. The public is also advised to assist in watching for, and reporting suspicious activity to police.

The approximately 42,000 businesses that received a payment this week as a part of the Workers Compensation Board (WCB) surplus redistribution are very happy to receive the rebate and remain committed to enhancing their work place safety.

“The vast majority of Saskatchewan businesses have a real and sincere focus on their safety practices and as such these cheques are

sort of dividend for that work. Businesses that maintain a positive safety status with the WCB are receiving cheques. Across the province there are $141 million in cheques being deposited and that’s a lot of money back in the hands of business,” said Saskatchewan Chamber CEO Steve McLellan.

The WCB announced a decision on June 22, 2015 to rebate 100 per cent of the in-

vestment funds over their mandated surplus levels.

This move was advocated for by the Saskatchewan Chamber and other business groups and the Chamber applaud the decision of the WCB to act so promptly in releasing the full amounts.

“While companies will receive a wide range of rebate amounts, from $300 to into the millions, we encourage all businesses to direct this

money back into their current and future safety plans.

Making sure staff are well trained and have all the necessary equipment to work safely is job number one for business. These rebates can help fund those expanded efforts,” said McLellan.

The attached backgrounder provides a sector breakdown of the amounts rebated and the number of companies who will receive payments.

Never before in my life have I hoped a head coach is wrong more than I do right now.

Prior to Sunday’s home game against Hamilton, Roughriders coach Corey Chamblin told his team in his pregame speech, “This will determine what type of team you’re gonna be for the rest of the season!”

TSN cameras caught the address and the commentators noted how fiery Chamblin was in his talk.

The club then proceeded to blow a 21-17 lead in the fourth quarter and lose 31-21 for its fifth consecutive defeat to open the 2015 CFL season.

0-5.

Of course to make matters worse, quarterback Kevin Glenn got injured making a tackle on an interception he threw at the end of the third quarter and was unable to finish the game. His status is now in question for this Friday’s game at the divisionleading Edmonton Eskimos.

Initially, the inkling is that this season is a write-off and we haven’t even hit August yet.

Upon my return home after the game, my wife asked, “So are we eliminated from the playoffs?”

And the answer to that question provided the one slim glimmer of hope the team has at this point.

No, they are not eliminated from the playoffs and there are still 13 games to go. In my first season calling games in 1999, when the club finished 3-15, the Riders were miraculously in the playoff picture right down to the final weekend.

But something needs to change with this team imme-

diately. There’s one bullet left in the gun and should they falter at Commonwealth Stadium this upcoming weekend, it would be tough to convince even the most-optimistic of fans – or even the players - that this season can be saved.

Defense cost Saskatchewan the Hamilton game. Just like all of their games so far this year. Chamblin, the club’s defacto defensive coordinator, tweaked their approach and applied considerably more pressure against the Ticats on Sunday than we’ve seen all season. But the result was the same.

“Just like you say, we brought the heat,” Chamblin said after the game. “We got after (Ticats QB Zach Collaros) and did everything we could. That’s football and we couldn’t keep them out of the endzone. The thing we can’t do is quit, no matter what.

This is one of the toughest situations they’ll ever be in but we have to fight another day.”

Amidst all of Chamblin’s postgame quotes, that was the kernel which stuck out to me. “We couldn’t keep them out of the end zone.”

So the time has come for Chamblin to relinquish the duty of calling defensive plays and hand it over to Greg Quick, the man whose business card actually says “Defensive Coordinator”.

The facts are staring the Roughriders right in the face. What they’ve been doing simply isn’t working.

There have been promises all season long but they’ve come up empty each and every week.

It’s come to this.

Receiver Weston Dressler has emerged as the leader of this football club in the absence of injured quarterback

Darian Durant and even he has run out of answers.

“It’s getting harder and harder to talk to you guys,” Dressler told us on CKRM’s postgame radio show. “Coach told us to remember this day.

We’re at the bottom and have nowhere to go but up.”

That part is likely true.

And it was so sad to see most of the 31,683 fans in attendance on Sunday head to the exits with 1:41 remaining.

There was so much hope in their faces all game long, but it is quickly evaporating.

“You never want to see people leaving early when there’s still time on the clock.

It’s tough,” Dressler continued. “If we had the answers we’d be winning games instead of losing them.”

That was the toughest part to digest. The Riders don’t have the answers and if they don’t, who does?

It’s time to try something different, before it’s too late.

The clock has started ticking on Corey Chamblin’s mostly successful time in Saskatchewan and no doubt there will be plenty of calls for his dismissal between now and Friday. But that, assuredly, won’t happen.

“I think, no matter what, through social media the players are gonna read (speculation on his future) and they shouldn’t be worried about my future,” Chamblin said calmly. “They should be worried about theirs. My mindset is the guys in that room. As long as I’m here, that’ll be my focus; to get wins for the guys in that locker room.”

For the last couple of weeks Chamblin has sounded like a dead man walking and it’s clear the team is down to its last out.

But they’re not giving up.

They can’t. Not yet.

“It’s gonna be a heckuva ride when we pull out of this thing,” Dressler concluded.

It has to start Friday night.

Woman seriously injured in Highway 11, Wanuskewin collision

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca One woman was seriously injured in a two-vehicle collision at the intersection of Highway 11 and Wanuskewin Road on Thursday, July 23.

The collision occurred at about 8:00 a.m. during the morning rush hour commute.

Warman RCMP Constable Dean Flaman said a northbound grey Toyota Matrix was attempting to cross Highway 11 when it was tboned by a southwest-bound white Chevrolet Avalanche.

The woman driving the Toyota was rushed to hospital by MD Ambulance paramedics. Warman Fire Rescue responded to the call and extricated the victim from her vehicle.

“The witnesses’ statements were pretty clear that she entered the intersection when it wasn’t safe,” said Flaman. “It’s not an uncommon scenario. It happens quite often.”

Southwest-bound commuter traffic heading into Saskatoon on Highway 11 was backed up for several kilometers while emergen-

RJC classmates reminisce at 65th anniversary reunion

By ISAAC SCHELLENBERG Aberdeen, SK On June 26, a memorable and unique event was held at Bethany Manor in Saskatoon. The occasion was the 65th year class reunion of the 1950 graduation class of Rosthern Junior College (RJC).

This gathering was in large part the brainchild of Jack Driedger. Dozens of emails, phone calls and letters were sent to former classmates as to their opinion of having a 65th class reunion.

The response was overwhelmingly positive. Of the original 48 students in the class, 16 are now deceased, leaving 32 living, all of whom replied. Out of those 32 respondents, 19 attended the event. People came from as far away as Winnipeg, Manitoba and Edmonton, Alberta.

The day was spent reminiscing and catching up with bygone days. There

was lots of visiting.

A delicious buffet lunch was served by a Warman caterer, Helen Peters. The lunch was topped off with a “to die for” angel food cake, strawberries and ice cream.

No class reunion would be complete without a traditional “hay seed.” This unique distinction would have to go to our friend, Mr. George Friesen from Lacombe, Alberta. George retired from farming fifteen years ago. Wanting to have something to do in his spare time, he hired on with the Lacombe Golf Club. This turned out to be a full time job. He was at work from 6 a.m. till 2 p.m., five days a week. I was told in no uncertain terms that Lacombe Golf Club has the very best greens in all of Alberta, due in large part to the experience and devotion of their employees. With that type of a class attitude, don’t be surprised if there is a 70th class reunion.

MARCUS ST R O M A N

100 bushels or bust: Prize offered for record-breaking yield North American canola growers who want to meet that challenge now have an extra incentive — a complete John Deere equipment package if they’re the first to grow 100 bushels per acre on 50 acres of canola.

Canola 100 is the first of a series of Agri-Prize competitions organized by Agri-Trend and sponsored by John Deere and Glacier FarmMedia. The competition is designed to inspire farmers to pursue innovative methods to grow a safe, reliable and environmentally sustainable food supply to better feed the world.

“Farmers have hit 80 and even 90 bushels”, explains Agri-Trend CEO, Robert Saik “so we believe the 100 bushels per acre is an attainable stretch that will involve farmers paying attention to every detail. This is why we are excited about partnering with John Deere

and Glacier FarmMedia to bring this competition to canola growers.”

The contest is open to any non-irrigated farmer growing spring-seeded canola in the canola belt of Canada and the United States. It’s open to any type of genetics and farming technology.

The first farmer to produce a verified average of 100 bushels per acre on 50 acres of contiguously seeded canola will win a prize package of 100 hours each of a John Deere tractor, air seeder, high-clearance sprayer, windrower and combine.

Canola 100 will run for three crops starting in 2016.

If the 100-bushel mark has not been reached by 2018, the highest recorded yield will take the prize.

For official rules (posted September 15th) and details go to www.AGRIPRIZE.com or call 1-877-276-7526.
