CRASH NEAR OSLER
A 44-year-old female from Rosthern was transported to hospital with minor injuries following a collision with a semi transport truck at approximately 8:30 p.m. on Wednesday, March 23. According to Warman RCMP, the woman was the lone occupant of a northbound Hyundai SUV that collided with the back of the semi as it attempted to make a right turn off Highway 11 at Township Road 394 at the north side of Osler. The driver of the truck, a 52-year-old male from Wolseley, SK, was not hurt in the crash. Charges are pending and RCMP continue to investigate factors surrounding the collision.

Radisson’s young ‘rock star’ starts his own museum By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Judah Tyreman put a lot of sweat-equity into building his rock collection. He’s become an expert lawn-mower, earning the money to buy more rocks. Recently that collection multiplied many-fold when his friend, Stuart Sesula, gave him his rock collection. Now, the 12-year-old intends to put more sweat equity into building a rock museum, “because of Stuart,” he said. Judah recently launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for The Sesula Mineral & Gem Museum & Rock Shop to be located in Radisson. Stuart passed away last November. “Stuart was quadriplegic and caught double pneumonia,” said Chris Tyreman, Judah’s dad. “The medication didn’t work then and then his kidneys shut down. He really was a great guy and very smart.” Stuart’s wife called to say he didn’t want his collection to vanish. He wanted Judah to have it. “It was stored in a space about the size of our living room,” said Judah. “It was full of boxes and barrels that were full of rocks.” Chris calls Stuart’s substantial collection
“mind-blowing.” Judah found Stuart by shopping for rocks on ebay. When he realized Stuart lived in the area, he bought some pieces from him and a friendship formed. Last summer the Radisson 71 Club asked Judah to put on a rock display show to help kick-off the opening of the newly renovated Goodrich Events Centre in Radisson. A couple of small highway signs brought in visitors from China, Germany and all over Canada. Rock museums are scarce. There’s one in Ontario and one in Cleveland. Judah wants his museum to be hands-on, so kids can handle the rocks. He’s started making replicas of megalodon teeth and trilobites to make these items more affordable for kids. “It’s a secret recipe I created about a month or two ago,” Judah said. He even created a special display stand so when kids order things like this, those items don’t end up sitting in a drawer. Judah gets a lot of help from his Dad, and his sixyear-old sister Avi is also involved. They create polished stone necklaces as well. Chris says one of the main reasons Judah is doing this is to help kids set aside their

Judah’s fascination with rocks began on walks with his Dad along the railroad tracks. When he was 8, his Dad got him a rock tumbler, and he recently got a university grade microscope as a gift. Donations of rare rocks
have come in from several people who’ve heard about the proposed museum. Most recently, Judah reported that Ken from BC has sent a beautiful bismuth crystal for the museum. The Riverbend District Chamber of Commerce gave Jude a full page ad for the museum in their “Best Kept
Secrets” publication. Last week, Tourism Saskatchewan called to see if they could list the museum. Judah has a show coming up at Lawson Heights Mall on April 2. He will have 80 feet of tables displaying plenty of rare finds from around the world. Besides building a collec-

The invasive Zebra Mussel: coming to a waterway near you By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Groups entrusted with water quality in the province have expressed a growing concern that an invasive species of mussels may soon infect our water systems. At the Watershed Advisory Committee annual meeting on March 16, members of the South Saskatchewan River Watershed Stewards (SSRWSI) discussed how to prepare for the arrival of the zebra mussels. Many believe their arriv-
al is inevitable. Watershed Coordinator, Lloyd Saul, said it may only be a matter of time, as fishing and recreational water craft travel through the province. “That’s what the Ministry for the Environment is thinking because we just have so many boats coming through and many of them have not been inspected,” said Saul. He added that the mussels have been detected in Saskatchewan, but their presence is not yet established. SSRWSI chair Ben Buhler
said zebra mussels have been detected on 24 boats or recreational vehicles that went through Saskatchewan. “So obviously they had been in contact either in Ontario or in Lake Winnipeg, which is infected,” said Buhler. “They came through Saskatchewan and stopped at the Alberta border and were caught there.” Each party said they did not enter any Saskatchewan waters, but Buhler says, that’s word of mouth, people selfreporting. He added that the
SSRWSI is currently lobbying the Saskatchewan government to make sure we stop these boats before they come into our province. “Both Alberta and Manitoba have these checks in place, but Saskatchewan does not,” he said. The SSRWSI is currently engaged in an awareness campaign to educate the public about this danger. Saul’s presentation at the meeting at Osler’s Gathering Place stated that the transport of watercraft overland is a major pathway

for aquatic invasive species (AIS) spread and introduction. Once established, both the zebra mussel and its cousin the ‘quagga mussel’ can cost millions in infrastructure damage. Water intake structures can become severely clogged. Recreation potential is also affected and waterfront property values may sink. “If irrigation systems get plugged with zebra mussels that’s loss of economics. SaskPower is concerned about them getting in the
dam systems,” said Saul. These AIS attach themselves to the boat hull, engine, trolling motors, trailer and related equipment. They have no natural predators, so they are free to run rampant and reproduce quickly. The watershed recommends boat owners take precautions and “Clean, Drain and Dry” their boat. “As the general public becomes more aware, they’re on the lookout and they can be part of the solution instead of part of the problem,” said Saul.

Patina Floor & Décor creates beautiful homes, from the floor up Patina Floor & Décor finds it gratifying to help people create beautiful homes. For most people, achieving a beautiful home is not a natural process. “More often than not people really struggle with some of the basic things like pulling together colours and patterns to create a unified design,” says Rhonda Johannson, co-owner of Patina. “If we can be of help to pull that together for our clients, it’s hugely rewarding on a daily basis.” The other part of “we” is Davide Dazzan. Dave and Rhonda are partners in life as well as in business. They shared a vision to create their own business in the community where they live and opened the doors of Patina Floor and Décor in Warman in 2014. Rhonda had been working in a senior government position and Dave was a territory manager for a wholesale flooring company. Patina’s full service approach starts with the floor and moves on up. Besides flooring, product of-
ferings include custom blinds and draperies, wallpaper and décor items, right down to toss cushions. Some customers have a hard time finding that elusive piece of furniture that would perfectly finish their look. Patina helps them select custom furniture, whether it’s for a reno or just to freshen things up. “We’ve gotten into home staging this winter and spring with new home builds for builders or realtors,” said Johannson. They blend their combined experience with assistance from interior designers who are contracted as needed. Patina contracts with locals for such things as seamstresses to create custom drapery and toss cushions. They may have six different flooring installation crews working at a given time. “We do a lot of networking and contracting with local people that work in the community here whenever possible, or other folks from Saskatoon.” Johannson says one of the
things that makes them unique is they carry most major manufacturers. Many flooring stores are limited in the manufacturers they are allowed to carry. “With Dave’s connections and time in the industry, we’ve been able to forge relationships with big players in the flooring industry.” Patina has recently secured the Mercier line of wood products. This includes hardwood flooring that is very customized but at a reasonable price point. “We’re really thrilled! It takes our products and services up to the next level.” They’ve been building their business on some critical core values: offering the best customer service, quality products and integrity. “We really focus on treating our customers how we would like to be treated. This motto guides us daily in our work,” said Johannson. Watch for a sale on blinds, as well as some flooring specials in May.

New ladder truck increases Warman Fire Rescue reach By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A growing city means taller buildings, and that creates challenges for firefighters. But Warman Fire Rescue (WFR) is prepared for larger structure fires now that it’s taken delivery of its latest vehicle, a brand new 2015-model aerial unit with a 109-foot ladder capable of extending up to six storeys. “It’s pretty impressive,” said Warman Fire Chief Russ Austin at the unveiling of the truck on Monday, March 28 in front of the city’s fire hall. “It arrived here last week after being certified and upgraded for use in Canada, and we’ve spent the last little while getting it into service. As of now, it’s ready to go.” The truck was originally a demonstration vehicle manufactured by the HME Fire Truck Chassis Group plant in Grand Rapids, Michigan. For the past two years it’s led a soft life in the showroom. When it arrived in Warman, it had a total of just 80 miles and seven hours on it.
But now it’s about to be used in the real world. “HME has been building fire trucks for about 102 years,” said Austin. “A truck like this, brand new, costs about $1.24 million. We were able to get it for $975,000. And because we made the deal last year, when the Canadian dollar was worth more, it was an even better deal for the city.” The entire truck body is built of stainless steel, It also doubles as a pumper truck, with a 2,000 gallon per minute pump capable of mixing conventional foam and water. The ladder, which can be rotated 360 degrees and has controls in both the truck and at the top of the ladder, can be used in both firefighting and rescue modes. In rescue mode it can reach almost vertically and is capable of lowering a trauma victim on a backboard. It can also tilt downward to an angle of negative 20 degrees to be used in ice rescue situations. WFR has nine firefighters certified in technical rope rescue, and
Warman Fire Rescue’s new aerial unit comes equipped with a 109-foot ladder TERRY PUGH | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE
the truck will carry a full complement of rescue gear in addition to conventional firefighting equipment. It has “stadium lighting” to enable firefighters to work at night as easily as they can during daylight hours. The vehicle has four “outriggers” that extend five feet from the truck body to add stability when the ladder is deployed. Austin said
the unit is designed to be used in urban areas with narrow streets. A firehose capable of sending 1200 gallons per minute of water and foam up to 200 meters can be used from the top of the ladder when in firefighting mode. The new truck replaces the WFR’s 1978-model unit, which was bought second-
hand decades ago. The arrival of the ladder truck marks the “complete revamp” of WFR’s front-line response vehicles, noted Austin. “We now have a 2015 109foot ladder truck; a 2015 automated Compressed Air Foam System (CAFS) pumper truck; a 2015 wildland truck; a 2014 rescue unit; a 2014 utility truck and a

Dog Guides are trained to assist people in six areas: Hearing Ear Dogs (for people who are deaf or hard of hearing); Canine Vision Dog Guides (for people who are blind or visually

The Lions Club began in
Martensville in 1979, and has been a big part of the community ever since, said Serblowski. “The focus is on serving the local community and helping people,” he said. “We’re always looking for new members.” This year marks the club’s second annual sponsorship of the Martensville A&W Valley Street Stock 100 race, slated for
2008 custom pumper truck,” he said. “Basically we’ve turned over our whole front line apparatus in the last two and a half years. “The city has set up reserve funds so that money is set aside every year to eventually replace the vehicles as they age. The anticipated lifespan is 18 years for the big trucks and 15 years for the smaller ones.”
Dog guide to aid local family thanks to Martensville Lions
By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A local family will get a new “leash” on life thanks to the fundraising efforts of the Martensville and District Lions Club (MDLC). The club is sponsoring a specially-trained Dog Guide for the family, according to MDLC President Syl Serblowski. “We’ve been fundraising
to cover this sponsorship for two years,” said Serblowski. “It’s a project that’s very near and dear to our hearts, because these are life-changing dogs that make a huge difference to the quality of life for the people who receive them.” The Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides program assists Canadians with medical or physi-

Negative growth is an election issue Every year over the past nine years, our province has seen a population increase. Indeed, Saskatchewan is growing. A growing province is something to be proud of. However, there are other growing areas that our present provincial government and media are not responding to. May I list areas of growth that are not being addressed? * The number of people using our food banks has continually grown over the past eight years; * There is a growing number of seniors and others on low and fixed incomes that are being affected by our growing cost of living (30% + increase since 2007); * A growing number of seniors are being affected by lack of quality health care and appropriate housing; * Waiting lists in areas of health care from surgery, to emergency care, to mental health continue to grow; * At the same time, layoffs of health care personnel are growing; * School divisions are experiencing growth in student numbers and seeing deficit budget growth as the Ministry of Education cuts educational funding; * The number of First Nations children that are not getting equitable education funding is growing; * A growing number of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in our province are experiencing government funding shortfalls; for example the Saskatoon Mother’s Centre and the Saskatoon and North Battleford Lighthouse programs; * Growing provincial deficit budgeting: at the provincial budgeting level there have been four consecutive deficit budgets with 2017 promising to be the fifth; * The 2016 provincial budget continues to grow, with an initial $700 million of borrowing to design a balanced budget, and now on top of that a further $427 million deficit accumulated throughout this year and the budget year is not over yet; * Our overall provincial debt has grown from a low of $5.9 billion in 2012 to some $13 billion plus in 2016. Is this really the way we want growth in our province to occur? I charge all voters to question carefully all candidates in the present election as to how their party is prepared to address this list of negative growth. Ken Crush Langham, SK

Political party platforms offer little for us One supposes it’s better than the 1980s when Saskatchewan politicians tried to buy us with our own tax dollars. But there wasn’t much in either the Saskatchewan Party or NDP platforms for rural voters…or any voters, for that matter. Both major parties released their platforms at the end of the campaign’s second week. And to suggest both were light in content would be an understatement. The best news for rural voters is the Sask. Party commitment to an extra $70 million for highways spending. The problem is that it might not be as good as it appears. As a portion of $842-million total capital, and maintenance/repair highway spending introduced in last year’s 2015-16 budget, this is a mere eight-per-cent increase. Maybe that’s nothing to sneeze at in today’s world of austerity – in fact, some might see as pretty substantial bone the Sask. Party is throwing to its rural base. But another big problem for rural voters right now

is so much of the Premier Brad Wall’s highways spending is being eaten up by things like $1.9 billion Regina by-pass that mostly benefit urban traffic. As for the roads many rural travel, it remains to be seen how much will be done for them. Sadly, “it remains to be seen” seems a big theme of this campaign. In the case of NDP leader Cam Broten, “it remains to be seen” whether he will seen in rural Saskatchewan. In fairness to the NDP leader, many things his party is proposing in its platform – certainly, the more extensive platform – might benefit both rural and urban people. Promising the lowest-inCanada utilities bundle – the old promise under Lorne Calvert’s NDP government – is clearly something beneficial to all Saskatchewan voters. And Wall’s contention that this will cost $595 million

seems questionable, given that’s about the annual profits made by all the Crown corporations put together. Similarly, who can argue that hiring more nurses, teachers or even social workers is a bad thing? And, certainly, most everyone would agree that it was bad to be wasting money on the government’s Japanese lean health care saving model, the Global Transportation Hub land purchases or Regina bypass. That said, the NDP notion that they are going to pay for things like their utility rate subsidies by cutting Crown corporation management and waste, the number of consultants and the bad investment decisions is pretty suspect. You can’t base your spending decisions by pretending you are saving money by no longer spending on things that aren’t in the budget anymore. And in the case of lean or past questionable spending decisions of the Sask. Party government, this spending is over and done with. Moreover, the NDP’s emphasis on massive savings by ending waste and mis-
management implies that an NDP government would never make bad spending choices. This would be great, but Saskatchewan taxpayers’ experiences with past NDP governments on messes like Spudco and lost money in U.S. investments certainly suggest otherwise. That said, the NDP platform at least touches on a broader selection of issues than Wall and Sask. Party. Credit Wall for challenging the status quo with things like private liquor stores and CT/MRI scans. But breaks on education property taxes for seniors or offering graduates help in buying their first home after you have already offered incentives for them to stay with tax breaks on their education doesn’t really help build Saskatchewan’s economy. What seems even more puzzling, however, is the admission in the Sask. Party platform that it can’t even consider a nest egg us until oil again tops $75 a barrel. This doesn’t offer a whole of lot of hope for voters. There again, neither major party platform is especially inspiring.

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.

Michelle Wendzion is the Green Party candidate for the riding of Saskatoon Stonebridge-Dakota. Michelle is passionate about improving the health care system, and the elimination of ambulance fees. She grew up in Saskatoon and feels the Green Party of Saskatchewan deserves a chance at forming government. The Green Party’s goal is to not only ensure that the planet, the biosphere we live in, survives and thrives but that all citizens and the communities they support have the maximum freedom to grow in exciting and innovative ways. Candidates for the Green Party stand on our principles—Global Green Values shared by Greens around the world. Green Party MPs and MLAs serve in more than 30 parliaments and legislatures, implementing policies that create jobs, foster cooperation and create wealth through transition towards the next clean technology revolution. More and more people want to see politics done differently: rural farmers who wish for governments to be less domineering; urban professionals who worry about the access to education for the next generation; northerners who wish to see real community development that includes them in an honest dialogue. The Green Party of Saskatchewan recognizes these and many other concerns. Our government will lead with integrity, work with local communities and govern together for the prosperity of all.

Bronwyn grew up in Saskatoon and now lives in Stonebridge. Currently, she is a Saskatoon public school board trustee for Ward 7. She’s a former broadcaster for NewsTalk 650 and columnist for the StarPhoenix and Calgary Herald. Previously, she was a senior writer/editor for two UK-based legal publications. She attended McGill University and the U of S (BA ’93; LLB ’96) and speaks French, German and Italian. Of her decision to run for the SaskParty, Bronwyn says, “I believe in common sense and practicality over process—low taxes, responsible spending, strict accountability, and maximum transparency. “The SaskParty under Premier Brad Wall has given the people of this province a cando pride of place in Canada. This is no time to turn back the clock.” The new provincial constituency of Stonebridge-Dakota includes the Saskatoon neighbourhoods of Stonebridge and The Willows, a large portion of Briarwood, as well as the RMs of Blucher, Dundurn, and the southern RMs of Aberdeen and Corman Park. The SaskParty has committed $23 million to the twinning of Highway 16 from Saskatoon to Clavet, $635 million to nine new joint-use schools, including 30 years of maintenance, and invested $1.2 billion in health infrastructure projects, including the Children’s Hospital in Saskatoon. The province now has one of the shortest surgical wait lists in the country, 650 more doctors, and 3,000 more nurses, of every designation, than in 2007.
My name is Steve Jimbo and I am the NDP candidate in Saskatoon-StonebridgeDakota. I received my PhD in Vaccine Development from the University of Saskatchewan and work as a Project Manager and a Post-Doctoral Fellow at the University of Saskatchewan, Vaccine Infectious Disease Organization. I live with my wife, Jania, in the south end of Saskatoon. After a decade of resource boom in our province, families in this constituency and throughout our province should have seen major improvements to the things that matter most, like health care, seniors care, education and roads. But we haven’t enough improvements, because the Sask. Party has wasted far too much of our money on their misplaced priorities. It’s time for a government that is focused on what Saskatchewan families care about, and I know that I can help deliver that. The Sask. Party government has grown increasingly out of touch with what matters most to people in this diverse constituency and I’m convinced that we can’t afford another four years of their misplaced priorities and wasteful spending. Cam Broten’s plan is an exciting one that will deliver positive change in the areas people care the most about. That’s why I’m proud to be on Cam’s team and I’m going to work hard to earn the trust of the people in this constituency.

Kevin was born and raised on a farm near Whitewood, before he moved to Saskatoon. He graduated from Bedford Road Collegiate in 1995. From 1995 to 1997 he was in the Canadian Armed Forces, attached to the 16th Service Battalion Reserve Unit here in Saskatoon, where he was posted to CFD Dundurn. After he left the military he worked in the oil and gas industry for a number of years before moving back to Saskatoon to run a family business in 2003. Some of Kevin’s political priorities include: recruiting qualified health care professionals, reducing medical wait times, eliminating overburdening and complex taxes, improving our education system at all levels, becoming a greener, more efficient province, better roads and infrastructure and a smarter, better run government.

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.
Hello from Mayor and Council, If you watch how nature deals with adversity, continually to renew itself, you can’t help but learn. – Bernie Siegel, MD With spring quickly upon us, it is that time of year where we as a community celebrate our wonderful volunteers. This year’s award ceremony will be held on April 14, 2016 at 5:30 P.M. at the Legends Centre – for tickets please visit the Legends Centre front desk. During this event three awards will be given to deserving members of our community that have made Warman the best place to call home. These awards include the Committee of the Year Award, the Youth Volunteer of the Year Award and the Volunteer of the Year Award. This year’s Committee of the Year Award will be awarded to the Warman Chamber of Commerce. In the short time that the Warman Chamber of Commerce has been in operation they have worked hard to enhance the business community in Warman. This year they will be hosting the inaugural Business Excellent Awards on May 27th, which showcases some of the fantastic businesses in Warman and surrounding area. Events such as these are excellent ways in which they support local businesses and help ensure that businesses thrive in the community. The organizations commitment to our community is second to none and I want to congratulate them on receiving this award! The Youth Volunteer of the Year Award goes to two deserving youth of our community. Brianne Ramsfield and Cody Davis, who were volunteers of the Kids in the Garden Program, will be this year’s recipients. The program, that they contributed countless hours to, is a program that supports Warman’s youth initiative to create a sustainable educational resource for their community. I want to congratulate both of these young individuals on their award and thank them for assisting in a program that benefits not only the participants, but the community as well. The Volunteer of the Year Award will be announced at the Volunteer Award event on April 14th. You don’t want to miss the unveiling of this year’s winner and I encourage everyone to come out and celebrate the volunteers of the community of Warman. I also want to take this time to note that the City of Warman remains committed to ensuring that our community has access to sustainable health services, this includes ensuring our residents have access to physicians.
Wednesday, March 30th to say thank you to those physicians who are here every day, providing essential services to local and surrounding area residents. Make sure next time you visit our local clinic, you also take the time to thank the physicians and staff for all that they do to provide health services to the community. Respectfully submitted, Mayor Sheryl Spence Transportation & Utilities Services Committee Report Thank you to all of the residents that came out to discuss the Transportation Master Plan (TMP) during our open house in January. The TMP will be used to guide the direction of the transportation network for the City of Warman. Council adopted the plan and has passed motions directing administration to design an implementation plan of our initial changes. Our 2016 plans include signal lights at the intersections of 6th Avenue and Central Street, Centennial Boulevard and Central Street, Centennial Boulevard and 4th Street and if budget allows, Centennial Boulevard and Clubhouse Boulevard. After the lights and crossways are in place, Council gave direction to follow the recommendations of the TMP and increase the speed limits on Central and Centennial. There will also be changes to the school zone designations on Central and Centennial to increase of speed limit to 50 kilometers per hour. These changes will allow traffic to move around the City of Warman in more productive way while providing safety for people crossing at these busy intersections. It will include removing 15 stop signs and providing clearly marked crossways with traffic lights.
The Environmental Health Services and Public Health and Welfare Committee would like you to mark your calendars for two important dates, the Spring Clean Up that starts on May 9th and Household Hazardous Waste Day which is on October 22nd – for additional details please review the information pamphlet included in your April utility statements. In addition to the clean up days, this Committee has been part of the Physician and Recruitment and Retention Committee (PRRC) with the Warman Chamber. PRRC is working hard to ensure that we will see some positive results for longterm health care for the community of Warman. Lastly, our Environmental Master Plan contract has been awarded and will begin development this month. This plan will be an excellent resource that will assist the City of Warman and its residents to work towards an environmentally sustainable future. Please visit City Hall for more details or contact Kendall Shram for details: kendalls@warman.ca.

Senior Boys Basketball
The Senior Boys basketball team finished their season at Martin Collegiate in Regina for the Regional Tournament. Our first match up was against a strong, veteran squad from Regina’s Martin Collegiate. After a slow start the boys were able to work out their nerves and start playing the game they knew they could. The strong leadership of Mike Szydlowski, the shooting prowess of Dawson Sinclair, who drained five 3 pointers, and the tough defense from Rookie Reese Trohak helped the boys to at least close the gap. The boys then went on to face the big, veteran team from Notre Dame. The 8 Grade 12s and 2 Grade 11s were just a little tougher on the boards than our boys, but our boys kept matching them point for point. A scoring lull and some foul trouble eventually got the better of us and we ended up losing by 20 points. This young team has come a long way and we will be a force to be reckoned with in the coming years. It has been an honour to work with such committed, hard working, coachable boys. You all improved in so many different ways this season because of your hard work and determination.
Sr. Girls Basketball
The Sr. Girls Basketball season has come to an end at Regionals which were held in Moose Jaw on March 11 and 12. Warman girls played Balgonie in Friday with a win of 74-29.

Wildcats win Bantam A crown
Wildcats win Pee Wee A title
By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The Warman Wildcats won the provincial Bantam A championship in convincing style last weekend. The Wildcats outscored the Swift Current Broncos 13-3 in a two-game, total points series; taking Game One in Warman by a score of 7-2 on Wednesday, March 23; and dominating Game Two 6-1 in Swift Current on Saturday, March 26. The Wildcats advanced to the final series thanks to a 13-0 win over the Unity Lazers, a 9-1 victory over the Martensville Marauders, and a 22-2 spanking of the Lumsden Lions. But despite the lopsided scores in the final championship series, it was no cakewalk, according to Wildcats’ head coach Mark Campbell. In both games,
the Wildcats trailed early on. “The final series was not as easy as the scores might appear,” said Campbell. “In Game One, the Broncos scored the first goal of the game seven minutes into the first period. But as they’ve done all season long, the Wildcats’ worked harder to control the play. Just 57 seconds after the opening goal, the Wildcats tied it up, and the first period ended in a 1-1 tie, with our team holding a slight edge in shots at 12-9.” In the second period, Warman took a 2-1 lead before Swift Current tied it up; but after that it was all Warman. The Wildcats led 5-2 after forty minutes, and added two more in the final frame. Warman outshot Swift Current 41-24. Goal scorers were Dylan Ashe,
Brody Braaten, Adam Power (3), Cole Hardy and Austin Underwood. Warman goaltender Matthew Hennessey turned away 22 of the 24 shots he faced. In Game Two, Swift Current once again drew first blood halfway through the opening period. The Broncos took a 1-0 lead into the dressing room after 20 minutes. But in the second, Warman scored two power play goals and were up 2-1 heading into the final frame. “Most teams would be happy with a six-goal lead in the series and only one more period to play to get the championship,” said Campbell. “But this team of young men still wanted to win the hockey game.

PRAIRIE LINKS GRAND RE-OPENING!
Friday, April 1st 11AM - 8PM
By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The Warman Wildcats clawed their way back from a two-goal deficit to win the provincial Pee Wee A championship on home ice on Thursday, March 24. The Wildcats downed the Swift Current Broncos 6-3 on the strength of a six-goal scoring spree in the second period, stubbornly holding the lead in the final frame to seal the deal. A week earlier the team had battled back to beat Swift Current 3-2 in the opener of the two-game total-points series in the Broncos’ home barn. The win gave the Wildcats their second 2015-16 season championship banner to hang from the rafters. They won the Saskatoon Minor Hockey Association (SMHA) league crown on Friday, March 18 with a 4-1 win
over Martensville. “It feels pretty amazing,” said Wildcats coach Bevin Guenther during the on-ice celebration after the game against Swift Current. “I couldn’t be more proud of these kids. They gave it everything they had when it counted. “At first I didn’t know if we would score any goals. We were down 2-0 after the first period. “And then they came out and scored six goals in the second; four of them in four minutes. I couldn’t believe it. Wow!” Wildcats goaltender Brodie Guenther said he didn’t get discouraged after the team fell behind early. “I knew the guys would pull it off,” he said with a grin. “I was a little nervous in the third period as the clock was counting down,
but I was kind of in the zone and I could see everything coming my way, so I just did what I could to stop the puck.” Wildcats’ forward Carter Borsa gave his team a shot of momentum less than a minute into the second period when he scored his first of two goals on the night. That got the hometown crowd going and the players fed off the energy in the venerable Diamond arena. “I just knew we had to get some goals to win this,” said Borsa. “Everybody worked hard every shift and it paid off.” Sylas Guenther, Ethan Campbell, Keenan Mann, and Chantze Pauls were goal-scorers as well. Mann also contributed an assist and Nick McMorrow chipped in with a pair of helpers as well.

Dustin Bilanski of the Delisle Bruins looks to pass the puck while avoiding pressure from a Gull Lake player during Game Two of the Senior C provincial championship playoff series in Delisle on Friday, March 25
Bruins fall to Greyhounds in provincial Senior C playoffs By MACKENZIE HEINTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca The Delisle Bruins won a key battle, but lost the war against the Gull Lake Greyhounds last weekend. The Bruins fell 6-0 to the Greyhounds on Sunday, March 27 in Gull Lake in the third and deciding game of the provincial Senior C hockey championship series. The Bruins had high hopes heading into the final game after prevailing 4-3 in Game Two on Friday, March 25. That was a key contest because it evened the series at one game apiece. The Bruins lost the
initial game 4-2 to the host Greyhounds in Gull Lake. “It was a big win; a gutsy effort by the team to send it to Game Three,” Bruins’ coach Daryl Souster said in reference to the mid-series win in Delisle. The Greyhounds seemed to control the majority of the first period, and at one point were outshooting the Bruins 8-3. With two and a half minutes remaining, Gull Lake went on the power play and ended up scoring, with the man advantage to take a 1-0 lead. Delisle almost tied the
game in the dying seconds, when Chad Laing tried a wrap around, but Greyhound goaltender Joel Graham robbed him of a goal. Gull Lake led 1-0 going into the second frame. In the opening seconds of the period, the Greyhounds were looking to add to the lead, but Delisle goalie Stephen Norris made a diving save to keep it a one-goal game. Around the halfway point of the period, the Bruins had back-to-back power plays. The first one didn’t CONTINUED ON PAGE 19

Dan Taylor of the Saskatchewan Rush scores a diving goal against Toronto’s Brandon Miller during NLL action at SaskTel Centre on Saturday night. The Rush clinched a playoff spot with back-to-back wins against the Toronto Rock over the weekend. On Friday, March 25 in Toronto, Curtis Knight scored the winning goal in the final minute of the game and the Rush added an empty netter to win 11-9. The two teams squared off again at SaskTel Centre on Saturday, March 26 before a crowd of 13,100. Trailing 8-6 early in the third quarter, the Rush offence came to life with eight goals, while the defence and a 31-save performance by Aaron Bold shut Toronto down, giving the home squad a 13-8 victory. A Saskatchewan Rush Jersey Auction and the sale of limited edition Chris “Captain” Coebeil t-shirts raised funds for the Children’s Hospital Foundation. The Rush are looking to build on their five-game winning streak when they host the Calgary Roughnecks on Saturday, April 2 at SaskTel Centre.
Warman Lions capture league title
The Warman Bantam Lions captured the Saskatoon Bantam B league championship title on Wednesday, March 23 at Kinsmen arena in Saskatoon. It was an all-Warman final, as the Lions defeated the Warman Tigers 6-1. After going undefeated with a 22-win regular season, the playoffs proved to be a totally different challenge.
After a first-round bye and then two playoff wins, the Lions ended up losing to the same Warman Tigers 4-3 and found themselves one loss away from being ousted in the double knock-out playoff format. The Lions faced elimination games three nights in a row and had to eventually beat the Tigers in the A final twice to become city champs.
The team includes: Drake Buechler, Jon Ikert, Cole Denis, Nic Korpan, Brody Irvine, Jace Fischer, Ryland Hinz, Scott Virostek, Warren Harasyn, Easton Bitternose, Mason Virostek, Darian Noln-Ens, Jake Harasyn, Andrew Cook, Kornel Irvine, Tyler Samuels, Carson McClughan, Kaden Cadman, Tristen Denis, Raina Owen, Richard Denis, and head coach Harley McClughan.

Froese earns Rose Bowl at Twin Rivers Music Festival
Jaclyn Froese was presented with the Rose Bowl Senior Piano Musical Distinction Award and a $150 scholarship following the final concert of the annual Twin Rivers Music Festival (TRMF) in Dalmeny on Sunday, March 20. Froese was recommended by the festival adjudicator to represent the TRMF at the provincial finals music festival in three classes. Erica Andres was named the Outstanding Junior Performer and awarded the Victor and Sadie Bergquist Memorial Scholarship of $75. Shauna Langer of Langham was presented with the Centennial of the Arts award for extraordinary impact on the community by TRMF board member Pat Schultz. Langer was given the award because of her efforts last year to keep the Prairie Spirit School Division’s band program in place. Langer began a petition that attracted thousands of signatures and helped convince the PSSD board to retain the program. Schultz said Langer’s efforts are an example of how one person can make a difference. “Instead of just whining about it she went ahead and did something,” said Schultz. “How novel is that? “I want to challenge the parents who are here today. Our children are worth advocating for. They’re worth it. We are preparing them to go to a place where we cannot go; that is the future. If

Suspects in cabin break-ins arrested Members of the Saskatoon Police Service Break and Enter Unit, BECAP, and Property Crime Task Force, executed a search warrant in the 800 block of Avenue I South, on Thursday evening March 24, 2016, with the assistance of the Tactical Support Unit. As a result, a 42-yearold male has been arrested and charged with one count of possession of stolen property under $5,000, and 5 counts of breaking and entering.

The investigation continues. The Saskatoon Police Service Break and Enter Unit would like to thank the public for their assistance in providing infor-
mation, not only on this crime, but on many other crimes they have investi-
gated, and encourage anyone with information on suspicious criminal activ-

Country ‘legends’ set to hit the stage
By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Many of the artists from country music’s golden era are long gone, but their timeless music lives on in the Louisiana Hayride. The live music stage show featuring country legends tribute artists is coming to Warman’s Brian King Centre on Thursday, April 21 as part of a western Canadian tour. The Louisiana Hayride name itself is a nod to the long-running program that originated out of Shreveport, Louisiana on KWKH Radio. Launched on April 3, 1948, the program was modelled on the Grand Ole Opry program out of Nashville and the National Barn Dance out of Chicago. It went off the air in 1960. But in its heyday, the Louisiana Hayride was even more influential than the Grand Ole Opry. It introduced the nation to Hank Williams, Kitty Wells, Elvis Presley, George Jones, Johnny Cash, Johnny Horton, Slim Whitman and countless other hall-of-fame legends. About eight years ago, the husband-wife team of Gil and Lori Risling resurrected the Louisiana Hayride name after obtaining copyright permission from the US owners and breathed new life into it in the form of a live stage show. Lori Risling had earlier penned a theatre production about music legends Patsy Cline and Elvis Presley. That show, “Elvis meets Patsy” wowed audiences in the 1990s. She used that experience to create a new stage show called “The Country Music Story” with her musician-husband Gil and his band. That was also successful, but after a few years it had run its course. Then the couple got the idea of incorporating timeless country hits using tribute artists and a radio show format to gave the audience insight into the singers, the songs and the songwriters. “Country music really speaks to people,” said Gil Risling, who grew up on a farm near Scott, Saskatchewan. “It’s honest and straightforward and people can relate to it.” Lori Risling said the show is amazingly popular with audiences, with many people booking their tickets months in advance when they learn which towns will be hosting shows. The cast recently returned from a week-long cruise ship booking in Florida. “We do two tours in western Canada a year,” said Lori. “One in the spring and one in the fall. This is the first time we’ve been to Warman. We’ve booked large fancy theatres in big cities, but we prefer playing smaller centres because of the warmth and sense of community.”

‘Willie Nelson’
from the very beginning,” she said. “Not only is it the kind of song that sends shivers down your spine but it’s the perfect opportunity to showcase our keyboard player’s skill on the guitar as well. He does this amazing ‘Tex-Mex’ solo.” The musicians that bring the country legends to life include: Gil Risling on electric and acoustic guitar and vocals; Andrea Anderson on vocals; William Brookfield on double keyboard, guitar and vocals; and Mike Melnichuk on stand-up bass, electric guitar and vocals. Lori Risling plays host on the show, introducing the characters, their songs and their life stories as well as filling in the background on the songs themselves. The tribute musicians do amazing interpretations of Hank Williams, Willie Nel-
son, Roy Orbison, Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn, Tammy Wynette, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, Conway Twitty, Faron Young, Red Foley, Burl Ives and Ray Price. And if those names strike a chord with you, this is a show you won’t want to miss. Tickets are $40 and are available at the Warman SuperValu and Martensville SuperValu stores.
