Respected community leader laid to rest

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Hundreds of people gathered in Osler on Friday, August 7 to pay their respects to Dick Friesen, a long-time community leader in municipal, provincial and federal politics.

Friesen, who passed away at his home on Friday, July 31 at the age of 84, served as Reeve of the RM of Warman, and also as Reeve and councilor of the RM of Corman Park following the amalgamation of the RMs of Warman, Cory and Park in 1970. His involvement in municipal government spanned more than four decades. Friesen was a Corman Park Council in 1990; served as Reeve from 1991 to 1994; and later as councilor from 1999 to 2007.

Friesen served on the provincial Farm Debt Review Board for nine years and was also heavily involved in provincial and federal politics.

Friesen was also noted for his successful dairy farm operation, his generosity, honesty and integrity.

Dick Friesen and his wife Tena began farming in the Warman area in 1953. Starting with just two cows, they built Marksview Farms into one of the largest registered cattle herds in the province.

Their farm was awarded a Canadian Energy Efficiency award.

Friesen was born October 2, 1930 to area pioneers David and Justina Friesen. The eldest of eleven children, Friesen was a noted athlete in his younger years stblinkmobile.com and took great pleasure in the accomplishments of his children and grandchildren later in life.

But the chord that resonated most with people at the memorial service was the reference to Friesen’s will-

Dick Friesen of Warman, a former Reeve and councilor for the RM of Corman Park, passed away July 31 ingness to help neighbours, friends and acquaintances; whether they were new farmers starting in the dairy business or young people at loose ends looking for stability and guidance.

Many troubled youth were invited to stay for a few months and ended up staying for years, becoming almost part of the family.

Moving tributes to Friesen were given at the memorial service by Art Friesen, Reverend Ron Smeding, and Reverend Bill Kruger. The speakers noted that Dick Friesen “taught by example,” was a hard worker and never stopped learning. He was also a man of solid personal faith who contributed much to his congregation over the years and always helped draw out the best in others.

Dick and Tena’s daughter, Leanne Friesen, touched everyone’s heart with her justblinkmobile.com performance of an original composition, “Fear Not, My Child.” Granddaughter Madaline Besharah performed a moving song and grandson Kasim Besharah read a poem of tribute to his grandfather.

CELEBRATING A CENTURY

Clavet to upgrade sewer, water infrastructure

Dalmeny senior marks 100 years

By HILARY KLASSEN hilarylklassen@gmail.com If you met Esther Boldt, your first thought would probably not be, “centenarian.” In fact, the Dalmeny resident doesn’t look a day over say, 85. But the proof is in all the correspondence she has received to attest to the fact she recently turned 100. A century looks good on her.

Her family recently traveled to celebrate this milestone with Esther, at the Dalmeny Seniors Centre.

“The kids all came. I have four children and they’re all married. One lives in BC, two in Alberta and one in Saskatoon,” she said. “They were all there, and the grandchildren, and my little great grandchildren. I have 11 of them,” she said fondly.

It was her wish to keep the celebration in the family.

Esther grew up in a world without pizza and lasagna. At the party, some of the great grandchildren asked questions like, “what did you eat when you were young?” (not that) and, “did you play with dolls?” Yes she did.

Boldt’s mailbox has been inundated with congratulatory correspondence. Letters from various dignitaries were read at the party.

There were birthday wishes and congratulations from Premier Brad Wall, Cam Broten, leader of the opposition, MP Ralph Goodale, MLA Nancy Heppner, Senator Raynell Andreychuk, Hannah Merchant and Governor General David Johnston. But she seemed most touched by the plaque she received from the town of Dalmeny which hangs proudly in her suite at the Spruce Villa, and which she said was beautiful.

Boldt’s parents emigrated from the United States to Langham in 1914 and Esther was born a year later. There was a big yard for the six siblings to play in. They

owned a Model T car and made occasional trips to Saskatoon. She remembers her Dad taking the family to see an airplane display in Saskatoon when she was about six or seven.

Boldt has one sister left who lives in BC. She acknowledges it is hard when people pass away and you’re left behind.

“Yeah, that’s when you get old,” she chuckles. “All your friends are gone.” She’s the only one left of a group of four that regularly played Scrabble at the home on games night.

She seems as surprised as anyone that she’s reached this milestone. Ten years ago, the family celebrated Boldt’s 90th birthday at her son’s place in Alberta.

“They asked me, ‘Well, are you going to live to be 100’?” Her response was, “I don’t know, whatever the Lord gives me. It’s not for me to say!”

She said she’s always been healthy and only in the last few years has run into a few difficulties. Her knees and hips having been giving her problems so now she uses a walker. Her hearing and eyesight are not what they once were.

“I used to do more handwork, knitting and crocheting, but I haven’t done that the last year or two,” she said. She is thankful for a good memory.

Boldt was married for 32 years, but her husband passed away nearly 40 years ago, and she’s been alone ever since. The couple lived in British Columbia for a time then returned and remained in the area, finally settling in Dalmeny. Because she “travels with God” she feels less alone.

When the family comes to visit they like to play games or head to the park for some good times.

But now, there’s a wheelchair involved.

Esther Boldt of Dalmeny turned 100 years old recently over. I have to move slow. That’s what 100 years does,” she said.

Living in the Dalmeny senior’s home is comfortable for Boldt.

“It’s good to live here. I don’t have to be by myself. I’ve got friends here and we get together

and eat together. That’s good fellowship,” she said.

Esther Boldt is a lovely example of someone who is beautifully brave, facing the fading of the years and demonstrating for us all a gracious way to grow old.

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The installation of new sewer and water lines to service older residential neighbourhoods will make a big difference to the Village of Clavet.

The federal and provincial governments announced a three-way cost-sharing grant to the community for upgrading wastewater and drinking water infrastructure on Friday, July 31. It is one of 26 projects in communities across the province under the New Building Canada Plan’s Small Communities Fund (SCF). The SCF is part of the $10 billion Provincial-Territorial Infrastructure Component of the New Building Canada Fund.

Clavet Administrator Del Cunningham said the sewer and water upgrades have been on the village’s wish list for at least five years. The project funding from the federal and provincial governments means it will now become a reality.

“It’s exciting news for us,” said Cunningham in an interview on Thursday, August 6. “It means that the entire town will now be hooked into the water and sewer lines.”

Cunningham said about onequarter of the community currently relies on septic tanks. Once the new sewer and water lines are connected, those old septic tanks will be decommissioned. She noted that many of the tanks are at least 50 years old.

“There’s a big environmental component to this upgrade,” she said. “It’s a huge improvement in terms of protecting the groundwater because a lot of those old tanks are on the verge of crumbling.”

The area that will receive new water and sewer lines includes Queen Street and properties along 2nd Avenue West.

The other big benefit will be an CONTINUED ON PAGE 13

There’s a lot on the line in this election

By DOUG FIRBY Troy Media Editor-in-Chief and National Affairs Columnist Canada is now into the longest and potentially most vicious

COMMENTARY

federal election in its history.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper visited Governor-General David Johnston on the August long weekend and dissolved Parliament. By legislation, the vote is scheduled to occur Oct. 19. That means voters are looking at 11 weeks of campaign ads, door knocking, all-candidates meetings and leaders’ debates.

There’s a lot on the line with every federal election, but this vote in particular could be a watershed. Here are a few reasons why: The swoon of the Liberal Party. After spending close to a decade in the wilderness, the former “natural governing party” expected that it would be able to regain power as voters tired of the scandal-plagued and seemingly aloof Conservatives. That no longer seems likely. After an initial honeymoon, leader Justin Trudeau has seen his trust and approval levels drop like a burned-out doobie, and the party’s fortunes decline with it. In short, the Liberals bear little resemblance to a party that is ready, and fit, to assume power.

The atrophy of the Conservatives. The governing party had to scratch and crawl its way into power, fighting to overcome suspicions of a “hidden agenda” and a perception of social conservatism. Harper’s calm - arguably bland - demeanour and steady hand helped assuage those concerns to the point that the party was able to climb from a minority into back-to-back majority governments. Now, a number of Conservative stalwarts have announced they are not standing for re-election and Harper appears at times to be wearying of his ringmaster role. The impression is that this government is getting tired.

The surprising rise of the NDP. Thomas Mulcair has never gotten much of a break as successor to the charismatic, and late, Jack Layton. Labelled “Angry Tom”, Mulcair has had to fight the perception that he was just another leftie with a chip on his shoulder. This year, things changed dramatically as the NDP picked up the progressive vote the Liberals were unable to hold onto. The astonishing upset victory of the provincial NDP in Alberta signalled a shift in the country’s zeitgeist - suddenly, inconceivable political change is not only possible but perhaps even destined.

So, we are going into this campaign with the Conservatives as underdogs, in spite of having several strategic advantages. It is the best-funded of the three leading parties, and best prepared to spend to the end. But, as Alberta’s PCs learned, a big budget buys you attention - not necessarily votes.

For example, one might ask why did the Tories decide to burn off such a large budget with attack ads on Trudeau when it appears he’s is no longer the biggest threat? That is a costly miscalculation, although one that can be corrected over a long campaign.

In fact, the NDP have managed to seize the early initiative with Mulcair already in full campaign mode. The Conservatives and Liberals both have some catching up to do.

Although it is profoundly difficult to engage the majority of Canadians in meaningful debate at election time, a long election campaign can be healthy for democracy. This election is already shaping up to be one where we will debate what kind of country the emerging generation of voters wants us to be.

Will we be insular, as we have become under the Conservatives, or return to more outward-looking on the world stage, as we were in the 1960s under Lester Pearson? Will we remain environmental delinquents with no national carbon plan, or will we once again lead by example?

Will we continue our shift to small government that believes laissez-faire economics is the best road to prosperity or reaffirm our commitment to the social programs that have made us an envy of the world?

It’s decision time. Let the debates begin.

Harper’s long summer Admittedly, it’s not quite as crass as the last time Saskatchewan voters saw a summer campaign.

Most of you in rural Saskatchewan will recall that provincial election in 1999; the one that former NDP premier Roy Romanow called in the middle of August for a September 16 vote.

That’s right. A September 16 vote that happened to coincide with the middle of a Saskatchewan harvest. Few political observers viewed this as a mere coincidence.

Knowing that their support in rural Saskatchewan had dramatically dwindled since the 1993 closure of 52 rural hospitals, NDP strategists thought it clever to call a campaign when farmers; the least likely to vote NDP; would be more preoccupied with earning their livelihood for the year.

Adding insult to injury were the pathetic excuses that it was necessary to call a Saskatchewan vote this early because the NDP were ANGELA HEIDEL

concerned about the dangers of elderly voters slipping on the ice as they made their way to the polls.

As it turned out, farmer backlash was such that the NDP were shut out in all but three rural seats.

Moreover, Romanow’s successor Lorne Calvert would call the next two elections for the first week in November, making the NDP’s excuse for a September 16 election so much nonsense.

In fairness to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, federal elections are different and October 19 is a generous post-harvest date for today’s prairie farmer.

And neither farmers nor anyone else could care that much about whether or not politicians choose to campaign in the summer.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

The Clark’s Crossing Gazette welcomes Letters to the Editor regarding topics of interest to our readers. The Gazette reserves the right to edit letters for brevity and clarity. Letters must be accompanied by the author’s name, signature and daytime telephone number for verification purposes (name and daytime telephone number in the case of emailed letters). Letters must be tastefully written and meet the Gazette’s legal standards in order to qualify for publishing.

SUBSCRIPTIONS

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.

But farmers and others care a whole lot about whether or not their hardearned tax dollars are being wasted. And in that regard, Prime Minister Stephen Harper was being less than honest with all voters when he suggested that an 11-week campaign; Canada’s longest campaign in 100 years; does not come with a significantly higher pricetag.

In announcing the start of the campaign earlier this month, Harper suggested it was necessary to officially start the campaign because his opponents were campaigning already.

Moreover, since political parties were just spending their own money anyway, there is really no consequence to this longer campaign, Harper said.

This was utter nonsense.

For starters, no one was campaigning harder than Harper and the Conservatives. Remember all those “he’s just not ready” Justin Trudeau ads than ran be-

fore the writ was dropped?

Worse yet, there was the hundreds of millions in taxpayer-paid-for announcements made by Harper’s government prior to calling the election (although, in fairness, all governments have pulled that trick).

However, what Harper seemed to conveniently forget is that he changed the Election Act so that the maximum $25 million each party can spend in a campaign was increased by nearly $600,000 for each day beyond 37 days.

In the case of an 11-week campaign that works out to an additional $50 million for each party; potentially $100 to $150 million more.

And Harper also seemed to forget that party money is subsidized by taxpayers to the tune of 50- to 60 per cent; depending on the nature of the expense.

It may not be quite as bad as 1999. But it is another case of a leader manipulating the election date to his party’s advantage.

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.

Gardening program teaches kids how to grow, cook their own food

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A volunteer-run gardening program in Warman is helping youngsters learn about the food chain from seed to table.

“Kids in the Garden” began in February at Warman Elementary School (WES), as a way of introducing kids to the concept of working in the community as part of their school curriculum, said Cindy Ramsfield, one of the coordinators of the program along with Brandy Bayda. “The kids began growing tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers in their classroom.”

Arrangements were made with the City of Warman and Warman High School to utilize the heated greenhouse and garden space at the high school, and the plants were transferred first to the greenhouse, and then to the garden. Grade Two students also spent time planting two of six raised garden beds.

“We now have 75 tomato plants growing in the garden, and the kids are looking after them,” said Ramsfield in an interview on Monday, August 10. “The program has two Grade 12

PHOTO SUBMITTED BY CINDY RAMSFIELD

Youngsters are growing their own vegetables and fruit in a garden plot with raised beds at Warman High School. The kids are also learning how to cook and bake their produce and sell a portion of what they make at the Warman Farmers Market students that work with the kids and teach them the basics of gardening. They work in the garden every Thursday.”

On Tuesdays, the kids learn their way around a kitchen using the teaching facility at Warman Middle School.

“I teach a cooking program after school,” said Ramsfiield, a registered

nurse. “So we are able to use that facility in this program as well. The vegetables are starting to come out now, but all through July, we’ve been doing ‘fruit-sharing’ where we have picked cherries, raspberries and saskatoons, and Brandy and I have been using the various fruits to make jams and jellies with the kids.”

Some of the fruit goes to

the participants, while some goes into baked and canned goods produced by the program participants. Baked treats, jams, jellies and syrups are sold at the Warman Farmers Market every second week, and some of the baked goods and vegetables are donated to the Warman Mennonite Special Care Home.

Ramsfield said the biggest

objective of the program is to get the community involved.

“Next year we’re hoping to get community members who have skills in composting and canning and gardening to spend some time with the kids and pass on these skills,” said Ramsfield.

“Even if it’s only for one session. These are really important skills to communi-

cate to the next generation.”

Ramsfield said the money raised through farmers market sales will be donated back to the community, although the vehicle for those funds hasn’t been determined yet.

“The kids are brainstorming about where to donate the funds,” she said.

“They’re coming up with new ideas every week.”

Communities in Bloom boosts quality of life in urban centres

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca There’s more to Communities in Bloom (CIB) than simply counting flowers.

“It’s about enhancing public and private amenities in communities, both large and small, by encouraging residents to take pride in their surroundings, improving quality of life, and promoting environmental sustainability,” said Bonita Lundberg, a CIB volunteer judge from Saskatoon. “It’s all about people and pride, and growing together.”

Lundberg and fellow CIB judges Ollie Marciniuk of Hafford and Barry Swanson of Prince Albert were in

Warman on Thursday, August 6 to tour the city. The CIB judges evaluated the community in a variety of categories ranging from floral displays to environmental action, heritage, urban forestry and conservation.

“We look at a lot of things, including waste management, water treatment, recycling, composting and the bylaws regarding new developments, green spaces and developers’ fees,” said Lundberg. She noted the evaluation is aimed at providing constructive suggestions to the community.

Warman is currently in the “Evaluated Friends” category. The CIB also has

competitive categories for communities which are looking for provincial and national recognition.

Other area communities involved in CIB in either a competitive or non-competitive category include: Osler, Aberdeen, Rosthern, Blaine

Lake, and Viscount.

Warman Community Programs Supervisor Coralie Bueckert said Warman is becoming involved in CIB again after a break of several years. She said the city is encouraging volunteers to form a local Communities

in Bloom committee as a way of helping beautify the city.

“There are a lot of worksin-progress underway here, and we wanted to get an independent evaluation of how our city stacks up,” said Bueckert. “It was nice to hear that we are on the right path, and I think it’s going to help us give us a focus for where we’re going to want to go from here.”

CIB judge Ollie Marciniuk said there is a practical benefit for communities that become involved at some level in Communities in Bloom.

“It enhances the quality of life in the community,” he said. “If everything is nice

and taken care of, it encourages community pride. People are proud of where the live.”

Lundberg said the judges were impressed with many of Warman’s initiatives, including the ongoing community garden and the new volunteer-run “Garden for Kids” program currently in operation at Warman High School.

“That program is amazing,” said Lundberg. “We were very interested in seeing how the kids are learning about growing their own fruits and vegetables and also learning how to prepare the foods in the kitchen.”

CANADA CUP SILVER MEDAL

By WAYNE SHIELS essenceofsask@gmail.com Team Saskatchewan captured a silver medal at the Baseball Canada Cup on Monday, August 10 at Cairns Field in Saskatoon.

It was a bittersweet moment for the Saskatchewan team as they fell 10-1 to defending champion British Columbia in the twilight final game of the week-long tournament.

Team Sask includes the best young baseball players from across the province, including outfielder Carter Dahl of Clavet. The squad’s original goal was to win a medal of any colour, but they set their sights on gold after a come-from-behind 4-3 win over Ontario in the semi-final.

As starting centerfielder, Carter Dahl was pivotal in helping Team Saskatchewan secure its sixth medal and first silver in the 26-year history of the Baseball Canada Cup tournament. Dahl was one of nine returning players that lost a close game to B.C.in the semi-finals before losing to Quebec in the Bronze medal game in the 2014 Canada Cup. Dahl said he wanted to take a leadership role to help the team win a medal, but was quick to point to a total team effort for their success. ”Everyone from the lineup contributed,” said Dahl.

“Top to bottom of the order; and our pitchers were throwing strikes. When putting ball in play our defence was just making plays. They were exciting games and lots of fun to play in.”

One of the most exciting games was the final round robin contest when previously-undefeated Saskatchewan and New Brunswick

met on Sunday afternoon.

Saskatchewan had defeated Manitoba 3-2; Newfoundland Labrador 14-0; Nova Scotia 12-2; and P.E.I. 7-0 to earn their 4-0 record. On the line was a direct berth into the semi-finals.

Dahl had a very strong game, scoring two runs and adding two RBIs as the teams exchanged leads back and forth. Saskatchewan took over for the last time with a two-run inning in the bottom of the 6th on an RBI double from Danny Berg (Saskatoon) and a RBI single from Jordan Malainey (Saskatoon). With the ty-

ing run on third Carson Perkins (Bienfait, SK) then shut out New Brunswick with two strikeouts and a ground-out in the top of the 7th to earn the win.

Saskatchewan topped powerhouse Ontario 4-3 in the semi-final, played Monday morning with another come from behind victory. Down 3-0, Saskatchewan’s comeback began in the top of the 4th when Danny Berg came in to score after he had hit a triple. They then erased the deficit in the top of the 5th thanks to an RBI double from Brody Frerichs (Muenster, SK), who would later

score on a single from Bryce Rueve (Muenster, SK). Carter Dahl also scored one of the runs. After a slow start Carson Perkins shut down the Ontario bats to pitch a complete game, allowing 3 runs on 2 walks and 4 hits while striking out 2. He was aided by some great defensive plays including a great diving catch by outfielder Dryden Kaczmar (Regina) who then completed an inning-ending double play by throwing out the runner at second base.

Major Risk Factors for Coronary Artery Disease part 3 Including Blood Cholesterol levels, Hypertension & Smoking, Pre-diabetes & Diabetes and Overweight & Obesity from our previous issue, below is a continued list of factors that can increase the risk for developing atherosclerosis & coronary artery disease.

Fitn eSS ti

7

PS

(6) Devil Genetics............A family that has a history of heart disease can predispose a person to CAD. People who have a mother, father or siblings that were diagnosed with CAD before they were 55 – 65 are at risk. However, just because CAD runs in a family doesn’t necessarily mean that others in their family will get CAD. Much of this depends upon lifestyle and whether or not that individual has other CAD risk factors. Note, also that if some medicines are taken to treat another risk factor (e.g. high blood pressure) may lessen the genetic influences and slow the progression of CAD.

(7) Stress...........Anxiety and stress can play a role in CAD development. These psychological conditions may trigger arteries to tighten, constricting blood flow and leading to hypertension.

Note Triglyceride levels...............Some research suggests that high levels of triglyceride (or blood fats) may be a risk for CAD.... especially in women.

(9) Age..........It is no surprise that as a person ages the risk for CAD increases. Most people have some sort of plaque buildup in their heart arteries by the time they’re in their 70’s. In women, the risk increases faster after age 55; in men, it increases more quickly after age 45.

(10) Gender..............Some CAD risk factors cause different problems depending on gender. For instance, diabetes raises risk of CAD more in women than in men. Also, pre-clampsia is a risk factor for CAD. Affecting approximately 5 – 8% of all pregnancies, pre-clampsia is a progressive disorder distinquished by high blood pressure and the presence of protein in the urine. Before the age of 55, women have a lower risk of CAD than men of the same age because estrogen appears to provide a protection against the development of CAD. After 55, CAD risk is similar for women and men.

Local athletes compete for Team Sask at Western Canada Games

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Saskatchewan’s female basketball team has an excellent chance of winning a medal at the Western Canada Summer Games in Fort McMurray this week.

The team boasts three area athletes on its roster, including Becka Hryhoriw and Chelsea Misskey of Warman, as well as Kelsey Wiebe of Langham. One of the coaches, Tracey Johnson, is also from Warman.

Hryhoriw and Misskey, both 16 years old, were part of the provincial U15 girls basketball team which won the national championship in 2014. Other veterans of that gold medal-winning team also on Team Sask’s current Western Canada Games team roster include Paige Davies, Emma Johnson and Katriana Philipenko, all of Saskatoon.

The 2015 Western Canadian Summer Games kicked off on Friday, August 7 and run until Sunday, August 16 in the municipality of Wood Buffalo, which includes the City of Fort McMurray, in northeastern Alberta.

A total of 390 Saskatchewan athletes from 70 communities are competing in the games, which includes 18 sports.

Area athletes competing in the events include: *Softball: Breanne Neudorf (Hague), Brandi Cameron (Beardy’s), Marla Laskowski (Warman - coach); *Male soccer: Percy Hoff (Saskatoon coach) * Male volleyball: Drew Harder (Waldheim); *Baseball: Owen Lindberg (Dalmeny); *Canoe/Kayak: Andrew Nilsen (Warman); *Judo: Brenna Bagnell (Warman) Amy Cotton (Warman - coach); *Rowing: Marie Brockman (Saskatoon); *Artistic Gymnastics: Noah Royer (Grasswood), Rya Wiebe (Martensville); *Athletics: Cole Fry (Langham), Nakia Thorpe (Vanscoy).

Team Saskatchewan was given a rousing send-off to the games last week in Regina.

“Our government congratulates all of the Saskatchewan athletes participating in the 2015 Western Canada Summer Games,” Minister of Parks, Culture and Sport Mark Docherty said at the unveiling of the Team Sask roster. “Team Sask has talented athletes whose skill, enthusiasm and commitment to sport are an inspiration to our growing province and we wish them the best of luck in Wood Buffalo.”

The Western Canada Summer Games are Western Canada’s largest amateur multisport event and have a positive impact on Canada’s next generation of national, international and Olympic champions. In Saskatchewan, the likes of Kaylyn Kyle and Kelly Parker, both Western Canada Summer Games alumni, have excelled at the international and Olympic level.

Athletes will be competing in 18 different sports throughout the two phase event.

Team Sask results will be updated daily on the Team Sask web site at www.teamsask. ca and can also be found at https://wcsg2015. gems.pro.

Vanscoy athlete wins gold medal

Nakia Thorpe of Vanscoy won a gold medal in female javelin at the Western Canada Summer Games competition in northeastern Alberta. It was one of 18 medals for Saskatchewan on the first full day of competition on Saturday, August 8.

Andrew Nilsen of Warman won a silver medal with his teammates in the 4-man 1000-meter event. He also won two bronze medals along with teammate Nathan Mortin in the Canoe/Kayak 200 meter and 500 meter two-man event. Nilsen placed fifth in the individual 200, 500 and 5000 meter event.

S’toon Midget Selects competing for national U18 men’s softball crown

By TERESA SHIRLEY teresa.shirley@sasktel.net The Saskatoon AA Selects U18 Men’s softball team headed to Fredericton, New Brunswick on Saturday August 8 to compete in the Canadian Softball National Championship from August 10-16.

The team is made up of athletes from Delisle, Warman, Perdue, Saskatoon and an additional player from Moosomin.

They have been playing league in men’s first division of the Saskatoon Amateur Softball Association of which they are currently sitting in first place.

The players have had tremendous success this season and also won gold at Provincials in Prince Albert in July.

There will be 10 teams in Fredericton from across the country competing for the title. Games can be watched

online from the link on the Softball Canada website under Men’s U18 tab, or follow the team on twitter at @ SaskSelects.

Three athletes from this team have been asked to stay in New Brunswick for an additional week to try out for spots on the Team Canada Junior Men’s Team that will be competing in World’s in Midland, Michigan in July 2016.

The invited players include: Justin Laskwoski of Osler, Evan Morris and James Shirley, both of Delisle.

off to a good start

After day one of the tournament, the Saskatoon Selects are sitting at 2-0.

Their first game saw them beat the Ontario 3 team with a score of 9-8 and after the opening ceremonies last night they beat the Nova Scotia team 2 by a score of 15-2. The Selects played Newfoundland and Nova Scotia team 1 on Tuesday, August 11. Results were unavailable at press time.

Laskowski confident Selects can medal at U18 nationals

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca Justin Laskowski of Osler has one goal this summer: win the U18 Men’s Canadian Fastpitch Championship to be held in Fredericton, New Brunswick from August 10-16.

Laskowski, who possesses versatility at first base, shortstop and on the mound for the Saskatchewan Amateur Softball Association’s Saskatoon AA Selects, has helped his team earn a 12-5 record.

And, after defeating the 2014 Provincial Champion Prince Albert Astros in mid-July, Laskowski said his team’s philosophy heading into the national championship is pretty simple.

“We are looking at it with the expectation that we can win. I think we are one of the favoured teams going into this year’s nationals.

If we don’t medal we will be very disappointed.”

It is the second straight year the Selects have participated in the national championship. Last year, the team finished 5th overall in Gander, NL. Laskowski is one of only four returning players in the Selects lineup this year.

“We have a lot of good bats this year, whereas last year we had a couple of holes in our lineup. This year we are pretty steady throughout with all nine guys,” said Laskowski. “We have four healthy pitchers this year whereas last year we only had two going into nationals.”

Selects head coach Scott Hudson said the variety of talent on the team has al-

lowed him to coach at a higher level, which is why he regards this year’s team as one of the best he has ever coached. Hudson said Laskowski’s versatility, his compete level, work ethic and leadership on the field has made an impact with the first-year players.

“He is a very knowledgeable student of the game.

When he was playing first, he always communicates when the game was on.

If someone is fielding the ball he is guiding them on where to go with the ball.

Sometimes you have to bear down. If you bobble it and there is no play on second, then he is yelling go to first. He is a good leader on helping to instruct the guys.”

All teams will play nine round-robin games in the tournament with the top teams seeded 1-10 before the playoff round.

The top four teams will have two opportunities to make the final and the following four will have one opportunity.

Hudson said this tournament is an opportunity for his team to do something special.

“At the end of the day it is going to boil down to character, heart, desire and commitment to believe in yourself, your team and go out and do what we have done all year.” justblinkmobile.com

Dick Friesen passed away peacefully at home on July 31, 2015 at the age of 84. He was born to David and Justina Friesen on October 2, 1930 and was the eldest of eleven children. He was predeceased by his parents, his daughter Brenda, and his granddaughter Janelle.

Dick is survived by Tena, his loving and devoted wife of 62 years; sons Lyle (Tammy), Larry (Brenda), Lindsay (Linda), Stan (Carma), daughters Candace (Ken Besharah), and Leanne. He is also survived by his grandchildren: Justina (Joe), Jonathan (Amanda), Christy (Zac), Angie (Justin), Jessica, Kaitlyn, Niki, Carson, Ocalla, Kasim, and Madaline, and eight great-grandchildren.

In 1953, Dick and Tena shared a dream to farm. They bought 160 acres of prairie land and began farming with just two cows and grew the family business into one of the largest and finest registered cattle herds in the province. He enjoyed many successful years on the cattle show circuit and his work was his passion. Marksview Farms was also awarded a Canadian Energy Efficiency award for exemplary management and operation of an agricultural establishment.

In his retirement years, he loved to read and enjoyed fellowship and games with friends and neighbours. Golf became a beloved hobby for him in his later years.

Family was his first priority. He loved his wife deeply and was truly devoted to his family. He especially enjoyed watching his children and grandchildren in their sporting activities.

Dick was an active member of a church community throughout his life. He was a man of great faith and had a deep love and devotion for his Lord and Saviour.

He will be dearly missed by his family and all of those who knew him.

TERRY PUGH | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

warman chamber of commerce golf tournament

Stefan Puchnatyj (left) and Ron Geissler share a laugh as they get set to tee off during the second annual Warman Chamber of Commerce (WCC) Golf Tournament on Friday, August 7 at the Legends Golf Course. A total of 32 golfers (shown here heading out to their respective teeoff holes) took part in the event, which featured a shotgun start and awards banquet. WCC President Ernie Quintal said while the chamber’s primary purpose is to advocate on behalf of business, it also provides educational and social opportunities for business people in the region. “Lots of business people are so busy working that they don’t think they have time to network and build relationships with their peers,” said Quintal. “This is one of the events where its a relaxed atmosphere.” The WCC was established a little over two years ago and now has over 100 members.

Memory tree park honours loved ones

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca Trees are often used symbolically to represent life and Vanscoy entrepreneur Mia Hollinger is looking to use that spiritual and healing connection from trees to help people who have survived the death of a loved one or pet.

Hollinger is still in the process of establishing a website for her new company, Treeternity, but she is hoping that people will see the link between planting a memory tree to remember a loved one.

“Trees are very symbolic of human life. When we have a bad year we show it and trees do, too. When we have great years we thrive and trees do as well,” said Hollinger. “My slogan is cel-

ebrate a life, plant a tree.”

Hollinger said by planting a tree, people are celebrating the life and memory of a loved one, which can serve a more beneficial role than visiting a sombre cemetery to remember an individual.

Hollinger’s business is located near Vanscoy on a 7.5 acre parcel of land and will have the capacity to hold 1,700 trees.

Each tree also comes with a plaque, which will be placed at the base where the buyer can inscribe the name of the deceased individual and message. Hollinger, who is a charted accountant by profession, said the concept behind Treeternity has been on her mind for a while. When she first thought about the idea, she bounced it off a few friends

to get their thoughts about it.

“I have received a lot of positive feedback which is good because when you are taking a risk you don’t know,” explained Hollinger.

“This park is really for the people who are surviving somebody. They are the ones who will plant a tree.”

The Treeternity parcel of land also includes a gazebo, pathways, benches, and basically everything a person would expect to see in a park.

Hollinger said she already has 235 trees planted on the perimeter of her property.

She expects to host a grand opening-style barbecue in a couple of weeks to introduce her new business to Vanscoy and the surrounding area.

Clavet upgrading water, sewer lines improvement to the village’s overall water pressure in their municipal system.

“Everyone will benefit because they’ll be able to receive lower insurance rates on their home insurance,” said Cunningham.

“We don’t currently have enough water pressure in the system for that area. So if there was a house fire in that area, the fire hydrants would not be able to produce enough pressure.”

The total cost of the upgrades is estimated to be $1.644 million; with the federal, provincial and municipal governments each chipping in one-third.

“The village will be on the hook for about $548,000,” said Cunningham. She not-

ed that the municipality will contribute funds from general revenues as well as a local improvement fee for homeowners directly affected by the upgrades.

The actual amount of the local improvement fee is not known at this point, she added.

Cunningham said the village submitted its application for the funds last fall.

She said there was a very short window for the application to be filed.

“We only had a couple of weeks to get the application in,” she said. “I was new to this position when the announcement was made that we could apply.

“Fortunately, the engineering study had all been

completed and we basically just had to plug in the numbers and make sure all the details were correct before sending it in.”

The timeline for the project is also unknown at this time, she said, but noted the village council is hoping it gets underway in the near future.

While the upgrades will mean streets will be torn up to accommodate the new lines, Cunningham said most people are likely to take that in stride.

“It’s short term pain for long-term gain,” she said.

“It’s been a big project that we’ve had on the books for a long time, and it’s really good to see things are moving forward.”

Team Sask loaded with talent and heart Saskatchewan head coach Greg Brons said the comeback wins were not unexpected. ”They have a lot of heart,” said Brons. “They don’t give in, they don’t give up. You know we try to shrink the game and let’s win inning by inning. If we had a bad inning let’s go win the next inning. The message was ‘stay with the process’.”

Saskatchewan had earned the right to play in the gold medal game against British

Columbia on Monday evening.

Unfortunately the comeback magic was not there as B.C. won 10-1 with a dominant pitching performance

by Tyler Hoefer (Delta, BC), who only allowed 2 hits by Carter Dahl and Danny Berg (Saskatoon). Dahl was also robbed of a sure extra base hit by a great diving catch in the B.C. outfielder.

In addition to great pitching and defence, their bats were also working. Kobe Mor-

ris (Victoria, B.C.) led the team, hitting 4 for 5, scoring 3 times and adding 2 RBIs. It was the third consecutive championship for B.C in the Canada Cup. Post-game award ceremonies saw Jordan Malainey of Saskatchewan named the Top Hitter of the tournament. He had 3 triples and a .421 batting average in the tournament.

Ontario defeated Québec 10-9 in the extra inning battle for the Bronze medal.

Asset management tool put in place by Town of Dundurn

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca Municipalities across the country may be following the Town of Dundurn’s lead when it comes to knowing every detail about its infrastructure and the people working on it.

The federal government is hoping upgraded municipal websites can be used to ensure better accountability for future infrastructure funding.

The latest Federal Gas Tax Fund Agreement signed with municipal governments across the country outlined the desire for municipalities to make progress towards developing and implementing Asset Management Plans by March 31, 2018.

Jay Teneycke, communications manager with the Ministry of Government Relations said a GTF Asset Management Subcommittee has been established with representatives from federal, provincial and municipal governments.

Teneycke said the subcommittee will determine the appropriate way forward for Saskatchewan municipalities to meet the GTF requirement for asset management.

The Town of Dundurn is one community that is in the process of updating their website to increase levels of service, improve reliability and transparency.

One type of Asset Management Plan (AMP) the town plans to have included into their website is a Capital Infrastructure Management

Prosser said council has had a lot of changes of late with Mark Collis and Scott Senick recently elected as councilors.

“Scott has a lot of experience in the water and sewer industry so we appointed him to our utility boards portfolio. Mark Collis has been a really great fit. The same goes for Annette. She is a successful businessperson and loves people. A lot of people are hoping she runs for mayor.”

At first, Prosser explained, council wasn’t totally sold on the idea of having a system that tracks workers.

The new system will make it easier for public works directors to see what jobs have been completed and what projects are currently in progress.

The most important point of the AMP is accountability, said Prosser.

“I think if the [federal] government is giving municipalities money, they want to make sure towns, cities, and villages are in tune with their infrastructure needs and develop a method to plan for the future.”

progress of infrastructure upgrades by GPS electronic tags, said Prosser.

“If someone wants to know what a worker is doing all day they can view all of the tasks. When they are out in the field and change out a culvert there is a little tag they will place on these culverts,” said Prosser. “The system has a GPS map in it so they can scan the tag and key in the information on the culvert, what it was made up of and the date it was installed as well as the price.”

Prosser said it took 10 months to develop the town’s new website, which hasn’t been updated for a de-

System or (CIMS).

Administrator Eileen Prosser said Dundurn Town Council participated in a national program and received a funding grant of $5,000 from the National Research Council to implement an AMP. The town used the money to contract Lexcom to help build a CIMS system into the town’s new website.

Prosser said SUMA and SARM are also aware of the National Research Council’s pilot project and both plan to promote municipalities to adopt AMPs. Prosser said CIMS will allow the town to make smarter and more efficient decisions when it comes to managing infrastructure.

“After the set up and implementation we will be able to tell where every infrastructure asset is, it’s overall health and whether it needs to be replaced or not,” said Prosser. “If an asset such as a water main, culvert or manhole etc is replaced or a significant betterment is done, all the information regarding the asset such as cost, make model of asset, material type, size, etc. can be uploaded to the CIMS.” Prosser said the system will allow the town to identify trends and make investment decisions based on the information received from maintenance crews and even the infrastructure itself such as video surveillance and sensors.

Ratepayers will also be able to track the progress of public works crews by GPS and also be able to track the

CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE • THURSDAY, AUGUST 13, 2015

Grasswood’s Lucas Johner pens song for Sask Summer Games Lucas Johner of Grasswood is following in his famous father’s footsteps.

Lucas is the son of Brad Johner, a multiple-awardwinning country musician originally from the Estevan area. Brad and his family now live in the hamlet of Grasswood in the RM of Corman Park just south of Saskatoon.

Lucas won the 2016 Saskatchewan Summer Games theme song competition with his Lucas Johner song entitled “Spirit of the Game.”

It’s a nice coincidence for the Johner family because the Saskatchewan Summer Games are slated to take place next summer in Estevan. The family band, Brad Johner and the Johner Boys, are booked to perform at the opening ceremonies.

The award-winning song will net Lucas Johner a cool $1,000 in prize money, but the biggest thrill is likely to be playing the song as hundreds of athletes walk into the stadium during the opening and closing ceremonies.

The songwriting contest was initiated because the last theme song in use at the 2014 Saskatchewan Winter Games reached the end of its licensing period. The 2016 Saskatchewan Games Committee teamed up with SaskMusic to launch a contest for a new song.

Donny Parenteau headlines Delisle firefighters’ concert Saskatchewan country music star Donny Parenteau is set to fire up the crowd at a benefit concert on Sat., Aug. 15.

The concert and dance is aimed at raising funds for the Pike Lake Fire Fighters, a branch of the Delisle Fire Department.

Parenteau, a multiple award-winning singer-songwriter, has helped out the cause in the past, and is back to continue the party.

The concert takes place at the farm of Delisle firefighter Larry Link, located 4 kilometers east of Delisle on secondary highway 766.

“The last time he was here he blew the doors off the hall,” said Link. “We are trying it again this summer and we’ll leave the doors open. Join the fun.”

Limited tickets and camping is available.

All the money raised at the event will go toward purchasing wildland fire fighting equipment.

Tickets are $50 each and are available at the Delisle Co-op, or by calling Delisle Fire Chief Al Dreher at 306493-7777; Pike Lake District Fire Chief Marv Ceslak at 306-242-1410 or firefighter Larry Link at 306-222-9737.
