Student engagement thrives at Great Plains College By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Great Plains College (GPC) believes that a balanced education places equal emphasis on the assimilation of classroom knowledge and skills, and experiential knowledge. In the past year, GPC has rolled out some new initiatives to enhance student engagement. Program coordinator, Robin Bendig, works collaboratively with the Student Association to develop extra-curricular programming. One such initiative was a GPC service day planned in partnership with the city of Warman. The day offered two placement opportunities. One was at the Warman Mennonite Special Care Home and the other was a community clean-up. The city provided maps of all the parks and let GPC know where they could go. The care home provided two opportunities allowing participants to swap half way through. One was
visiting with residents of the home, looking at their photo albums and talking about their life. The other was raking autumn leaves outside the home. “We had over 30 participants go out into the community,” said Bendig. “Representatives from city hall, including Mayor Spence joined us as well.” Bendig would like to see this initiative grow every year, and hopes to eventually have businesses and organizations proposing projects for the college. “We all got together afterwards for pizza and shared our highlight of the day.” Other initiatives have brought First Nations Elders in to share teachings. This month, GPC had elder Darlene Speidel share stories with students for several hours. They’ve also had Bob Badger, U of S Cultural Coordinator, in to share his knowledge The Health and Wellness initiative encourages a holistic lifestyle, which aims to achieve balance in four

areas – mental, physical, spiritual and emotional. It can involve participation in arts like painting and poetry, meditation, yoga, a walking group, sports and games. Spoken word artist Cody Dill came to speak about addressing social justice through art. Holiday celebrations also present opportunities for student engagement, as do professional development opportunities and workshops. Bendig is passionate about student engagement. When she was a student at the University of Saskatchewan, she participated in a form of experiential learning called service learning. “It places equal emphasis on learning components both inside and outside the classroom, and service within the community,” she said. Youth Care Worker students are participating in a service-learning opportunity this week at the Saskatoon Indian and Metis Friendship Centre.

While being uniquely innovative, student engagement opportunities at GPC are attentive to students’ interests and what other post-secondary institutions are doing. With the beginning of each term, Bendig informs students about events the college will be hosting. Participation is optional, but these events represent additional learning opportunities that offer many benefits. Aside from the many student-life opportunities, Great Plains College Warman Campus offers programs ranging from Business and Administrative Assistant, to Adult Basic Education and English Language Training, Youth Care Worker, Early Childhood Educator, Heavy Equipment Operator and Boom Truck programs.

Carbon monoxide poses danger, says fire chief By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A carbon monoxide (CO) detector is credited with preventing injuries to residents of a home in Warman on Friday, January 22. The CO alarm inside a home in Warman’s west end went off about 1:15 p.m., and two Warman Fire Rescue (WFR) units responded to the 911 call. The occupants of the dwelling were evacuated without incident and no one was hurt. When WFR members measured CO levels inside the home, they found elevated levels of the gas in the upper storey. WFR members had responded to a CO alarm call at the same home in December, 2015, but no leak had been detected at that time. Warman Fire Chief Russ Austin said the level of CO gas detected this time was high enough that the home had to be ventilated thoroughly. SaskEnergy was alerted and technicians were dispatched to the scene to identify the source of the leak and fix the problem.
“Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless gas and it basically goes where it wants to,” said Austin in an interview after the incident. “The level of gas in this case was such that the residents would have become very sick if they were breathing that air continuously for about eight hours.” Austin said with newer homes that are well-insulated and have very energy-efficient appliances, adequate ventilation is extremely important to ensure a supply of fresh air into the home is maintained at all times. “There are basically two situations where you can get CO leaks,” said Austin. “The first one is where air intake vents on the outside walls of the house become iced over or blocked somehow. In that case the furnace isn’t able to breathe properly and you get a buildup of CO inside the house.” These blockages typically occur when the outside temperature drops during cold snaps, or when there is excess humidity inside the home. “The second case is if you

Joint-use schools are co-located so that they share a roof and spaces such as gymnasiums, multipurpose rooms, community resource centres, and child care spaces. The Martensville school is being built in the Lake Vista neighbourhood while the Warman school is located in the Traditions neighbourhood.

Hague couple wins $5 million
Darrell and Wendy Penner are starting 2016 as brandnew millionaires. The Hague residents won $5 million on the January 13 Lotto 6/49 draw. “It’s really kind of funny that we won,” said Darrell. “We were talking to friends about there being a Saskatchewan winner after the draw, and I said, ‘I’m pretty sure I got this,’ as a joke!” Imagine the couple’s surprise when they found out it really wasn’t a joke. “I checked the numbers on the Internet while I was at work,” Darrell continued. “I saw that we had matched the numbers, but I didn’t believe it so I just went back to work for a little while.” After confirming the win, Darrell went straight to his wife’s workplace to tell her the good news. “We had a moment in the hallway,” said Wendy. “I kind of lost it. I couldn’t believe it was happening to us. I just started crying happy tears,” she added. “We both did. We just did lots of hugging and had lots of tears.”

Finances must be addressed now Elections are certainly a much better option than the alternative, but they can be a huge inconvenience when it comes to the running of government. This is not to make light of the democratic duty voting-age adults in this province need to partake in come April 4. Nor is to make light of those who are willing to take an active role in this democratic process. We are well aware that we are in the leadup to the spring vote. Both the Saskatchewan Party and the NDP are now running television advertisements that require big dollars. In turn, that requires donations from party supporters. Both parties are close to a full slate of candidates, as are the Green Party. Even the old Progressive Conservative and Liberals also seem intent on making a showing in this election campaign. This will provide voters with ample choice on their ballots. All this requires big-time commitments from not only those running (many of

whom have no realistic hope of winning) but also those who support them. But democracy is always about such commitments to voters having a choice; notwithstanding the high likelihood that Premier Brad Wall’s Sask. Party appears to be headed to a third-term majority. It is this process of choosing who governs us that is the lifeblood of a civil society. That said, it is a process that can and does distract from dealing with pressing issues at hand. Right now, that means dealing with a failing Saskatchewan economy and the need for a spring budget … or some other vehicle to address the problems. And at least until the voters select someone else to deal with matters; again, an unlikelihood, if you believe the polls; it is incumbent on Wall and his Sask. Par-

ty government to deal with such pressing issues before going to the voters. It may be strictly a matter of circumstances that we now have a spring election campaign conflicting with what is normally a March budget presentation. If the Premier had his druthers, the campaign would have been last November. (That was Wall’s first choice for a set election date, until Stephen Harper’s decision for a 72-day campaign that ended in October.) And it just so happened that a fall vote would have been the better, politically speaking, for Wall. Last fall, we weren’t quite so deep in the decline of oil prices now below $30 US a barrel. Some may even argue that it is unfair that Wall should be forced to go to the polls at such an inopportune time. (However, it’s doubtful that they had such concerns the last time Wall went to polls when oil was closer to $100 US a barrel.) But the simple truth of the matter is that Saskatchewan taxpayers need and are owed a plan to address the budget issues.
We are already seeing the Alberta government unveil its initiatives, including a major wage freeze for nonunion public servants. Wall must tell us of his plans, as well. We are already dealing with a budget that is in a deficit situation, a rising public debt and the reality that the last budget borrowed $700 million from the open market for major capital works initiatives. We should be updated and the government should tell us about whatever adjustments it intends. For Wall not to do anything; even if it just a minor correction plan; is not only a disservice to voters, but also to himself. After all, he will just have to turn around and address the issue after the election, anyway. Similarly, other political parties seeking office should be required to address the issue during the campaign. But right now it is Wall who needs to deal with the realities in advance of the vote. He is the one still running government.

RM of Corman Park reverses decision Emergency Response Teams on APAS membership: they’re back in information session set By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Warman is one step closer to establishing a volunteer emergency response team network. An information session to explain the purpose and structure of the Warman Emergency Response Team (WERT) is set for Tuesday, March 15 at 7:00 p.m. at the Legends Centre. Randy Meginbir, Warman’s Emergency Measures Organization (EMO) Coordinator, said the information session will feature a video outlining how similar community-based emergency response teams operate in cities and towns across the United States. There will also be speakers on how the teams are organized, trained and other practical aspects of the teams. There are roughly 2,600 Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT) are active in cities, towns and villages in every state; and all of them operate under the auspices of the US Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Meginbir is hoping to set up a similar team in Warman, and while it will be modeled on CERT and use similar training modules, it won’t have that name because FEMA can only certify teams in the US. “The CERT model was developed out of a situation that happened in Los Angeles in 1985, when a major earthquake occurred,” said Meginbir. “At that time, the scale of the disaster was so huge that the police, firefighters and other emergency responders were so overwhelmed there was no way they could handle everything all at once. “It was mass chaos.” Meginbir said FEMA adopted the system and standardized the training and certification on a national scale. Membership in CERT teams in the US ranges from a high of 16,000 members in LA to as few as a dozen trained volunteers in small towns. “The teams are trained by certified instructors in eight or nine basic areas like first aid, how to use a fire extinguisher, how to shut off natural gas valves to damaged houses, that sort of thing,” said Meginbir. “Let’s say a tornado or plow wind comes through the area and takes out multiple homes in Warman, for example. If you are trained, you could look at a damaged structure and be able to mark it as unsafe so the firefighters and rescue personnel would be aware of that. “We would also need people who are trained in the use of chainsaws, for example, to cut through trees
that are blocking streets in order to allow rescue personnel and vehicles to get through to the area of town that’s hard-hit by the storm.” Meginbir, a Warman resident who is also a professional firefighter with the City of Saskatoon, said the emergency response teams are not intended to replace the police, firefighters or paramedics. “They are there to assist, not replace,” said Meginbir. “Their job would be to step in where they are needed. Each team would get their instructions from the EMO. The volunteers on each team would have a ‘gear bag’ with essential tools and supplies that they would keep at their own home and use only in emergency situations.” Meginbir said volunteers for the emergency response teams should be over 18 years of age. He is hoping to recruit several dozen volunteers and begin the training sessions this spring.
By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca The RM of Corman Park has opted back into the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan (APAS). Previously, at their December 7 meeting, councilors had made the decision to discontinue their APAS membership. A PowerPoint presentation from an APAS delegation at the RM’s January 25 meeting held sway. Bruce Dodds, field representative with APAS, and Ken Rosaasen, ratepayer and APAS representative, presented their take on the benefits of APAS membership. The presentation addressed what makes APAS distinct from SARM. It noted that the membership fee is unchanged since 2003, when it was lowered from 10 cents per acre. Currently the fee is six cents per arable acre. That translates to $22,626.10 for the RM and is one of the reasons they originally chose to opt out. APAS representatives argued that the organization’s ability to lobby, both provincially and federally is a significant factor. “Our lobbies have delivered an average of $2.4 million per RM to farmers and ranchers since 2000,” said Dodds. He cited other exam-
ples when APAS was able to lobby for remedial money in hard times. Reeve Judy Harwood restated her previous objection that there is duplication in what APAS does. “I received no calls from any of the rate-payer farmers. Just the opposite. The farmers I talked to say they are being represented by their own organizations.” But she added, “We want to be very open.” Councilor Trask said she had received a few calls since the RM bowed out of APAS and recommended erring on the side of caution.
Warman Elementary School
Councilor Germs said he believes the voice for agricultural producers in Corman Park needs to be heard. “Agriculture is very important in Corman Park and I believe if agriculture wins, everybody wins. And we need to support that on the policy front not only locally, but provincially, and also federally. To have that voice there at the Canadian Federation of Agriculture, that’s where policy starts and that’s where policy develops,” he said. When it came to the vote, councilors decided to opt back into APAS. The dollar

Sustainability students in the field
By Meagan Hinther
In September 2015, students from the University of Saskatchewan’s School of Environment and Sustainability had the opportunity to work directly with local farmers as part of a field course in the students’ Master of Sustainable Environmental Management program. In the course, students were paired with a local cattle or crop farm and spent several days taking soil, water and vegetation samples to help assess the sustainability of farm operations, all near the important natural habitat of the Redberry Lake Biosphere Reserve. Three of the students, Alexandra Gresiuk, Ashley Shaw and Muzeyi Bagonluri, were paired with Nick Partyka, a farmer with a 3,000-acre cropland operation about 20 kilometers west of Hafford, which is near the biosphere reserve. Redberry Lake is known as a popular tourist destination and is also the nesting grounds for more than 180 species of birds—many endangered or threatened. “Exploring Redberry Lake Biosphere Reserve was a wonderful opportunity, and
I learnt so much during the field course,” said Gresiuk. “I’m from Saskatchewan, so I know how important agriculture is. I also care about the environment, but until this course I didn’t realize that sustainability and farming could coexist.” In late October, the students met with Partyka to present their report, which considered the environmental, economic and social dimensions of sustainability, and talk about their findings. “Nick is doing a really good job. He includes wetland buffers and uses a targeted instead of blanket approach when it comes to fertilizers,” said Gresiuk. “Our report focused on some of the potential consequences we could see coming up in the future like eutrophic wetlands, degraded soils and flooding.” To help prevent this, the students suggested the farm increase existing buffer areas around wetlands to help the natural plant life filter the pesticides, fertilizers and herbicides used on crops. They also stressed the need for cover crops to limit soil erosion and add additional nutrients. “We were looking at not
only the impact the Partyka farm would have to its own lands, but also the impact to the larger biosphere reserve and ecosystem,” said Gresiuk. Partyka was appreciative of the hard work done by the students and is looking forward to going through their recommendations. “There are a lot of good points in the report. We are doing quite a bit of it already and planning to do more, especially to control encroaching and noxious weeds, basically those invasive species,” said Partyka. “Otherwise these weeds take over the land and need more particular herbicides.” “I liked working with the students—they are a very diverse group and I found learning about their local farm practices infor¬mative, like Alex’s experience in BC and Muzeyi’s in Ghana,” added Partyka. For the students’ part, working with the farmers was also a rewarding experience. “You typically don’t have that experience of doing real work for a client while in school. I really liked getting the feedback from Nick. It makes me a better scientist,” said Gresiuk.

The Gordon Oakes Red Bear Student Centre at the University of Saskatchewan’s Saskatoon campus opened its doors on January 4, 2016. A number of opening celebrations, leading up to the university’s Aboriginal Achievement Week (February 8 to 12), are planned in the weeks ahead, including a traditional feast and open house to which the public are invited on Friday, February 5, beginning at noon. “This project has been underway for many years and I’m happy that we are finally ready to open the doors,” said Graeme Joseph, team leader of First Nations, Métis and Inuit student success at the U of S. “To have a safe space to recognize and celebrate the cultures and contributions of First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples is important. The centre will also play an important role in supporting Aboriginal student success.” The centre houses the U of S Aboriginal Students’ Centre (ASC), offices for Aboriginal undergraduate and graduate student leadership, a computer lab, and space for ceremonies, lectures, meetings and studying. “There are so many more opportunities for students in this new building,” said Joseph, who manages the building and staff at the ASC. “We can now expand our existing programming and make our services available to larger numbers of students, both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal. It will truly be an intercultur-
al gathering place that will be central to the university meeting its Aboriginal engagement goals.” Feather Pewapisconias, president of the Indigenous Students’ Council, is pleased that the new centre has dedicated space for Aboriginal student leadership, and says the space will help create a stronger feeling of community. Pewapisconias said that the centre is a “good step for the university in showing the importance and respect for the Indigenous people and culture of this campus.” Echoing Pewapisconias, Candace Wasacase-Lafferty, director of Aboriginal Initiatives at the U of S, sees tremendous potential in the centre. “We know that we’ll be able to hold bigger events in a more culturally appropriate place and we know that we’ll be able to serve a greater number of students than before,” said Wasacase-Lafferty. “But our vision for the centre goes beyond just numbers. We want this place to become a hub of student activity and a place that all people can use. We want this place to
mean something to the students that enter its doors.” The design for the 1,884 square-meter building was envisioned by Douglas Cardinal, a renowned Métis and Blackfoot architect, and is rich with cultural significance. The building’s exterior is composed of the iconic Tyndall stone that adorns many other buildings on campus. The stone wraps around the structure, creating a symbolic blanket to protect the centre. Being close to the earth is important during many Aboriginal cultural ceremonies, and so, dirt taken from the construction site fills a large cement cylinder located in the basement of the building, directly below the gathering area. A large exhaust fan and vent are hidden within the high ceiling, which is decorated as a medicine wheel, using colours chosen by the Oakes family. In the centre of the colourful ceiling is a skylight with a design representative of a star blanket. For more information on the centre and opening ceremonies, visit aboriginal.usask.ca.

Sask Polytech student project published in prestigious car calendar Car enthusiasts across North America will get a glimpse at the restoration work completed by Saskatchewan Polytechnic students when they flip their 2016 BASF calendars to October. They’ll set eyes on a beautifully restored 1955 Mercury M100 antique truck that was just one of many vehicles students in the Auto Body Technician and Automotive Service Technician certificate programs laboured over the last year. “A training institution having their vehicle showcased in the calendar is quite an accomplishment for students who have very little experience in the trade,” says Scott Kucharyshen, program head of the Auto Body Technician program. “It’s not only a first for the program — it’s a first for me and my staff. It’s a very proud moment to showcase the level and quality of training we do for the students.” Auto Body Technician students rust repaired the truck’s cab; dent repaired the roof, doors and hood; and subsequently repaired and refinished the entire truck, inside and out. A new box and front fenders were installed, the tailgate was extensively repaired and the powertrain was refinished. Automotive Service Technician students and apprentices installed the engine and

transmission, connected everything and established it was running properly. Headquartered in Germany, BASF’s products include a range of pigments, resins and additives used in vehicle refinishing. Vehicles refinished with the BASF paint line (such as the 1955 Mercury) can be entered into the competition for publication in the calendar. Entries are judged based on: quality finish on the vehicle, technical difficulty of the finish and the artistry and uniqueness of the finish. The twelve vehicles selected for the 2016 calendar come from all over North America and range from a 1935 Ford Coupe from Nova Scotia to a 1972 Buick Riv-
iera from Ontario. The calendar feature isn’t the only claim to fame for this rare, robin’s egg blue truck. It also placed third in the restored truck category at the 2015 Draggins Rod and Custom Car Show. The Auto Body Technician program is a one-year certificate offered on campus in Saskatoon and Regina. The program provides students with a solid foundation in the knowledge and skills required to work in motor vehicle body repair and refinishing. The Automotive Service Technician program is a one-year certificate offered in Saskatoon and Moose Jaw. Students learn how to diagnose, repair and maintain mechan-
ical and electrical systems in contemporary and classic vehicles. Students and apprentices in the Auto Body Technician and Automotive Service Technician certificate programs work on a variety of vehicles during the academic year. Many of them are late-model vehicles with the latest technologies. Projects like the 1955 Mercury restoration provide them with a well-rounded education. As a result, graduates of both programs are in demand and have a very high employment rate. Kucharyshen says plac-
ing at Draggins and the calendar feature are achievements his students can share with potential employers when they begin ap-
plying for jobs. “It’s about building their confidence and taking them where they didn’t think they could be six months earlier.”

Warman Chamber of Commerce launches awards program
By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The first annual Warman Business Excellence Awards program was officially launched on Wednesday, January 20 by the Warman Chamber of Commerce (WCC). WCC President Elise Hildebrandt unveiled the initiative, aimed at putting the spotlight on area businesses that have achieved exceptional success, at a noon-hour luncheon at the Legends Centre in Warman. The nomination process for the awards officially opens in early February and the awards will be presented on Friday, May 27. There are five award categories, including: Business of the Year; Marketing; Customer Service; New Business: and Community Involvement. The competition is modeled on the Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce ABEX awards and the Saskatoon Chamber of Commerce SABEX awards. Hildebrandt said holding an event to recognize and honour business excellence in the local area has been on the WCC’s bucket list since the organization was founded in 2013. “It’s been part of the Warman Chamber’s strategic plan all along,” said Hildebrandt. “We felt this was the year to launch the awards program because we’re now firmly established and we have the resources and knowledge to make it happen. “The objective is to celebrate our community’s achievements and acknowledge our successes.” Nominations are open to both WCC members and
Elise Hildebrandt non-members, said Hildebrandt. “It is not restricted just to Warman, either,” she added. “We are encouraging businesses in the area, including Osler, Hague, Neuanlage, Dalmeny, Martensville, and other communities to apply either on their own behalf or to nominate a business.” Applications can be submitted online through the WCC’s website (www. warmanchamber.com), beginning in early February. Melanie Boldt of Pine View Farms in Osler was one of three panelists who spoke at the WCC’s kickoff event. She and her husband Kevin have won numerous awards for their operation, including a 2004 ABEX award for marketing. “Being nominated for a business award gives you tremendous credibility and exposure,” said Boldt. “It really helped us when we were starting out. But it also has long-term benefits that we’re still seeing after more than 17 years in business, including helping us build a network and giving us the opportunity to measure our own progress and to learn from others.” Sara Wheelwright of Trusted Saskatoon said winning the 2014 ABEX Award for marketing made a differ-
ence in her company’s bottom line. “We saw our sales increase by 49 per cent,” said Wheelwright. “So it’s given us a much better platform to reach prospective clients.” Mike Yager of Spotlight Sport and Corporate Wear, said his business is expanding to Warman from its home base in Humboldt, partly based on the recognition they’ve achieved through local and provincial awards. “Early on in our business we identified the need to be members of the local chamber of commerce and to also provide leadership in that group,” said Yager. “We also found it very worthwhile and rewarding to participate in the awards competitions. You make connections and you promote your business in a big way.”

Sledding enthusiasts urged to follow bylaws By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Martensville and Warman are among the few Saskatchewan cities that allow snowmobilers to operate their machines within city limits. But there are some basic rules that sledders need to abide by; avoid city parks and major thoroughfares; and stay under 20 kilometers per hour while taking the most direct route out of town. “We’re asking people to follow the guidelines,” said Martensville Bylaw Officer Scott Delahey. “It’s all about common sense and safety. “There are very few cities that allow snowmobiles to actually leave from a residence. We’re really lucky in Martensville and Warman that we’re able to do this. Still, people could lose that privilege if they don’t follow the bylaws.” Warman Bylaw Officer Wade Eberle said the recent snowfalls have brought out the sleds, and with that comes the inevitable complaints about damage to trees and shrubs in city parks, noise and unsafe driving. “I would say that the vast majority of snowmobile owners are responsible and courteous,” said Eberle. “But you always get a few who don’t seem to care. “Just yesterday, for instance, a guy on a sled ripped out all the shrubs
and plants along the boulevard on Centennial Boulevard near the gas station. He just drove right ever everything. Just because it’s covered with snow doesn’t mean it’s not there. That’s an expense that the taxpayers have to cover.” Both cities have bylaws specifically regulating the operation of snowmobiles inside their municipal limits. Warman adopted its bylaw in 2014, and Martensville amended its bylaw in late 2015 to make it more comprehensive by incorporating portions of the provincial Snowmobile Act. Both bylaws have common points, including: * Snowmobiles must be driven in and out of town using the most direct route; * Snowmobiles may not be operated on specified major roadways; * Snowmobiles are prohibited in parks and playgrounds; * The speed limit for snowmobiles inside city limits is 20 kilometers per hour; * The hours of operation of a snowmobile inside city limits is limited (7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. in Martensville; and 8:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. in Warman); * Fines for violations range from $100 for a first offense to higher penalties for repeated offenses. The full text of the bylaws are available on both cities’ websites.
“The biggest thing is to keep the noise and the speed down when you’re driving your sled in and out of town,” said Eberle. “Don’t go ripping around in the parks and streets.” Delahey said the Martensville snowmobile bylaw was amended to include relevant portions of the provincial law regulating snowmobile operation. “It’s aimed at educating people,” said Delahey. “It may be that they aren’t aware these rules are in place to ensure people’s safety.” While individuals holding a valid driver’s license under the provincial Traffic Safety Act are deemed to hold a snowmobile’s operator’s license, provincial legislation states that all snowmobile operators born on or after January 1, 1989, are required to complete an approved snowmobile safety course and obtain their snowmobile safety certificate before operating on public land. The course can be taken online. The Martensville bylaw requires residents to obtain a certificate of registration under the Snowmobile Act, or otherwise provide proof of liability insurance up to $300,000. “It’s important to have insurance in case a snowmobiler damages city property or another resident’s property,” said Delahey.
Snowmobiles are not permitted in Warman parks and playground areas, notes Warman bylaw officer Wade Eberle

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(306-933-2210) if you have suggestions or information for our newsletter.
announced their retirement. I want to extend my sincere thanks on behalf of the community to them for all they have done to help make our community safe.
Hello from Mayor and Council, The winter season is now in full swing. With this season comes frigid temperatures, icy roads, and short hours of daylight. It is important that we all make sure to take care of ourselves during these days. I know for myself it can be difficult to have a desire to head out into the cold but is important that we all keep busy and enjoy this season as best we can. Although we long for the summer season where we can enjoy all that Warman has to offer, it is important to remember there is still lots to do in our community in the winter. Leisure programming has just begun, the many classes offered will be sure to help with the New Year’s resolutions this year. Haven’t signed up for a class? There are drop-in passes available, visit the Legends Centre or call 306-933-2210 for more information. The cross-country ski trails have also been freshly groomed, check out the trail and take advantage of this winter sport. In addition to the leisure programming and ski trails, there are wonderful outdoor rinks, toboggan hills and walking trails. With so much to do in our community, it is important that we all take advantage of these. Staying active in the winter months is so important during these cold conditions, it is also wonderful for the soul. Don’t want to spend all of your time outdoors or in a gym? Why not check out one of the many local competitions and sporting events that the Warman High School puts on. You can also head over to the Warman Community Library. Grab a good book or participate in one of their fantastic programs. There truly is something for everyone this winter season. When you do head out this winter, be sure to keep safe. Icy and winter conditions are prominent this time of year. Make sure to take the extra time to get to work, drive slow and watch for the slippery sections. Respectfully submitted, Mayor Sheryl Spence Protective Services Committee Report After more than 30 years of providing protection to our community as well as others, Staff Sergeant Kevin Weber of the RCMP and Chief Gordon Thompson of the Warman Fire Rescue
Staff Sergeant Weber has provided great leadership to our local detachment the last few years. He oversaw a very busy detachment with a large service area. The City of Warman has received great service from the RCMP under his command, and City Council has felt that our concerns have always been addressed quickly and effectively. All of Warman wishes Sergeant Weber all the best in his retirement. Gord Thompson, recent winner of the Saskatchewan Order of Merit, has been with the Warman Fire Department since 1976. His name is known everywhere in the fire protection circles in the province. He has led the charge in several key innovations in Saskatchewan, including the 310-5000 emergency system in Saskatchewan and the Saskatchewan First Responder Program (which was started in Warman in 1987 first). The Warman Fire Department is the envy of every volunteer department in the country thanks to Chief Thompson.
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
February 8 & 22, 2016 Located at 107 Central St. in the council chambers at City Hall starting at 6:30pm. Doors are located on Fifth Ave. S.
There are no words that describe how thankful we are to have had both of these individuals as leaders in our community. You have provided a service that contributes to the safety and security of our fellow residents. Respectfully submitted, Councilor Trevor Peterson, Protective Services Committee Chair Administration and Finance Committee Report With the arrival of the new calendar year, the Administration and Finance Committee will be busy reviewing the Fiscal 2015 Financial Statements. In conjunction with these Financial Statements, the Committee will carefully review and consider reserve allocations, as guided by the Reserve Policy adopted in 2015. This annual process is important to understanding the current financial state of affairs, while ensuring the future financial stability of the City of Warman. Additionally, the Administration and Finance Committee, early in fiscal 2016, will focus on updating the City of Warman’s 5 Year Capital Plan, extending the current plan into the 2020 fiscal year. This plan ensures that City Council and Staff have a keen eye on the future, helping to ensure the continued growth and success of Warman. Respectfully submitted, Councilor Kevin Tooley, Administration and Finance Committee Chair

battle and went on to play Tisdale the following morning. We were pretty evenly matched and it was a close battle right to the end. Will Kirstein hit the rim and the ball rolled out in an effort to tie the game with 3.5 seconds left on the clock. It was a 61-64 loss. The boys came out on the losing end of a tough game versus LCBI, we were 3 points behind the entire game. The experience of the 7 Grade 12s and 5 Grade 11s from Luther got the better of us. On January 15th and 16th the boys headed up to Meadow Lake to face some strong 4A and 5A teams. Unfortunately, we did not come away with a victory but the determination of our young players and the work ethic of our Grade 11s has made us a force to be reckoned with. This year we are a very young team and are playing some very experienced, strong teams from the city and from the North. This season is far from over and we are just getting started. “Winners are not people who never fail, but people who never quit” ~Kobe Bryant

Winter trailblazers Cross-country ski trails a great way to enjoy the outdoors
By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Chris Beech first strapped a couple of rough wooden planks onto his boots when he was seven years old, and he’s been cross-country skiing ever since. That’s a lot of winters, and a lot of kilometers, under his belt. The Warman resident turns 82 in February, but he’s one of the regulars at the groomed cross-country ski trails at the Legends Golf Course. Since the trails officially opened on Monday, January 18, he’s been out almost daily covering the two kilometer-long loop. “I’ve skied just about every winter since I was a kid,” said Beech in an interview at the side of the trail on Thursday, January 21. “I love it. It’s free, and it’s a great way to get some exercise and fresh air. The appeal for me is just the motion of skiing. It’s so easy on your body, yet you exercise your arms, your legs, your heart and your lungs.” Beech grew up in Chauvin, Alberta, a small community near the Saskatchewan border south of Lloydminster. He said he got hooked on cross-country skiing the first time he tried it, even though his equipment was pretty crude and he really didn’t know what he was doing. But experience was a good teacher. ‘I never had any lessons,” said Beech. “I kissed a few poplar trees and decided, ‘well, there’s got to be a better way.’ I learned as I went along.” Beech said the groomed Warman trails are a nice length for recreational skiers. “I used to go longer distances,” he said. “When we lived in Tofield, Alberta, I’d sometimes ski several miles into the bush and not get back till dark. I could always hear lots of coyotes howling, but I didn’t realize until much later on that there were also a lot of wolves there. I think the wolves must have thought I was their ‘meals on wheels’ and were just waiting for me to come to them.” Beech isn’t the only one who’s keen on cross-country skiing. The kids in Mr. Campbell’s Grade 6 class at Venture Heights School in Martensville also think it’s a great way to spend a winter afternoon. “It’s awesome,” said one student after picking herself up from a tumble in the fresh powder at the bottom of a small hill. “Cold, but awesome.” Venture Heights School purchased 26 sets of cross-country ski outfits for the students’ use three years ago. In addition to class outings, the school also has an active cross-country ski club made up of students and teachers who strap on the equipment after school and on weekends.
Mr. Campbell and his Grade 6 class at Venture Heights School in Martensville try out the trails north of the school on Friday, January 22

Warman junior girls win gold
By CORRIE POMARENSKI Warman High School The Warman High School (WHS) Wolverines Junior A girls basketball team captured the gold medal at a tournament in Lloydminster last weekend. The Wolverines Junior A boys team also had a good tournament in Lloydminster, but lost a heartbreaker in the B side final. The girls played first on Friday evening,, January 22 against Bishop Lloyd Lancers. The girls started out cold and slow but ended up beating this Lloyd team 51-25. That win set up a match against the College Park Cobras (another team from Lloyd who won their first game as well) on Saturday morning, January 23. Once again the girls came out slow but finished strong, edging out the Lloyd team 40-25. This put the Wolverines in the finals against long time rivals North Battleford Comprehensive, who they lost to last year in the finals. The girls were pumped and hungry for redemption. There would be no cold, slow starts in this game. Cara Misskey scored four three-pointers in the first quarter to put the Wolverines ahead 22-11. The girls continued to full

The Warman High School Wolverines Junior A girls basketball team won the gold medal at a tournament in Lloydminster last weekend court press, leaving nothing up to chance and proving that they were a force to be reckoned with from start to finish. They came out on top by a score of 56-38, winning the tournament and the gold medal. What made this win even better was that the entire team were a part of getting to and taking the gold! Coaches Corey Fast and Evan Folden were very happy with how all the girls played this weekend. The girls have another tournament in Dalmeny this weekend and are looking forward to a re-match against Melfort!
JUNIOR BOYS GAMES
The Junior Boys first played John Paul II Crusad-
ers Friday night. The boys played some of their best basketball against this big team and had one heck of a game. Unfortunately they lost by one point, 54-53. That narrow loss put them into the B side of the tournament. Their second game was against the College Park Cobras from Lloyd on Saturday morning. This was another great contest, which saw the boys edge out Lloyd 33-30 in a very close game. The win carried the boys to the B side finals against Holy Rosary (another team from Lloyd). The boys played hard but came up short, losing 5033. Coach Russell Dyck was quite pleased with how the boys played all weekend!

A fond farewell to a great friend Terry Peet honoured at Dalmeny Fury’s last home game of the season
By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Terry Peet was all about hockey and running the rink. For a long time, life at the arena in Dalmeny was orchestrated by him. Last March, Peet passed away suddenly, leaving a sizeable hole at the arena. Before the Fury’s last home game of the season on Friday, the community chose to honour Peet for his dedicated service at the arena and his contributions to the community.
Dalmeny mayor and former police chief, Nick Bakker, knew Peet for many years, and presented a memorial plaque to the family of Terry Peet. “It gives me great pleasure to be able to give to the family the recognition, from the community and on behalf of town council for the wonderful contributions that Terry made to minor hockey and to the arena in Dalmeny,” he said, to applause. Appropriately, this presentation happened on the ice. The Dalmeny Fury and the Prairie Outlaws hockey teams were lined up on either side of the ice facing the crowd inside, staying warm behind the glass. A red carpet was rolled out and the Peet family along with mayor Bakker were welcomed into the rink. “I would like to present this plaque to the family in recognition of the dedication and the achievements and the community service that Terry Peet brought to Dalmeny,” he added, to more applause. The crowd at the Dalmeny arena on January 22 was larger than usual, as community residents who had known Terry for many years, came to honour his memory. The plaque, along with a photo of Peet will find its home in one of the display cabinets in the arena foyer. A narrative detailing Terry’s background and accomplishments will accompany the display. Bakker reflected that when he first came to Dalmeny back in 1982 the town had an old arena. “I think it was the coldest rink in the country. In fact it was The late Terry Peet of Dalmeny so bad, in mid-

Members of the late Terry Peet’s family, along with team captains from the Dalmeny Fury and the Prairie Outlaws, took part in a ceremonial face-off following the memorial plaque presentation on January 22 January it was warmer outside if it was 40 below than if you were in that building.” That’s where he first met Terry. Peet was coaching minor hockey, including his son David whom he coached right from the start. After he finished coaching he retired to run the rink. Peet put in long hours. For tournaments he could easily be there from 6 in the morning to one in the morning. “He did quite a job as rink managers often do. He was a very dedicated man, looking after a lot of things. He would flood the arena and scrape the ice, organize games, fix things, keep the arena clean and sharpen skates,” said Bakker. He was the ‘go-to’ guy at the rink. When it came time to build the current arena, he worked hard. “He was a pretty wonderful guy. He did a heck of a job, and he’ll stay in our memories for an awful long time.” When Peet became ill at one point, he couldn’t work at the Dalmeny arena any longer which was hard on him. But his resilience saw him through. He recovered and worked at the Langham arena for a time. Following the special commemoration, the game
was set to get underway. To kick things off, members of the Peet family joined with the team captains of the Fury and the Outlaws for a ceremonial face-off.
