Flaggers may be safer when ministry deploys this device

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca It’s a simple solution, but nobody ever thought of it before. The Ministry of Highways rolled out a new solution to improve safety in highway construction zones at a May 13 press conference. An innovative device to control traffic moving through construction zones is expected to reduce ‘blow by’ incidents that can injure flaggers and cause collisions. “We all know that highway flaggers have a very dangerous job,” said Nancy Heppner, Saskatchewan’s minister responsible for Highways and Infrastructure, citing several incidents of flagger injury and one loss of life. “These incidents are tragic, they are unacceptable and they are preventable,” she said. The ministry has been working with Potzus Construction on an Automated Flagger Assisted Device (AFAD) which operates on a simple stop and go light system. The AFAD is visible to motorists from a great-

HILARY KLASSEN | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

Brennan Wiens of Potzus Construction unveils a new device the company designed to increase safety on highway work zones er distance as they approach a work zone. In the simple system, red means stop and green means go, something motorists are familiar with.

Brennan Wiens, HR and training manager at Potzus Construction said last August their company was one of those that did have a flag-

ger injured. “The motorist bypassed warnings signs, bypassed gates on the road, and rearended a vehicle that was

parked directly in front of a flagger. The flagger was struck, thrown into the ditch, knocked unconscious and since then, he’s never returned to work,” said Wiens. It caused the company to consider how to improve safety. The AFAD was piloted in 2015 and some desirable results were observed. “We noticed almost a complete 180 in the motorists’ response to the AFAD versus a flagger in a construction zone,” said Wiens. Typically they might see a blow-by every hour, where someone would jump the queue, ignore the flagger and drive by. “Upon deploying the AFAD on the road surface, we saw the motorists completely stop blowing by the flagger, they waited in line, no one jumped the line,” he said. Motorists responded to the simple red and green signals. Operated remotely, the device removes flaggers from the actual traffic lane. A cable allows the flagger to be 150 feet away from the device and from dangerous motorists, and able to con-

trol traffic much more safely. As motorists approach, the flagger turns the light to green when it’s time for motorists to go. The AFAD is visible from a few hundred metres away. It’s easy to see and it’s going to save lives out there, Wiens said. Heppner said during the election campaign, her government committed $70 million for immediate fixes on highways and another $2.7 billion of spending over the next four years, that doesn’t include the Regina bypass. “You can expect to see a lot of work zones and we want to get this work done safely.” Wiens said while the AFAD technology seems simple, it hasn’t been done in our province before. Currently Potzus has two AFADs, one for each end of a construction zone. The device can retail for upwards of $20,000, but Potzus was able to build one for a lower cost. “Ideally, as the ministry lets us know, we would be inclined to build many more,” said Wiens.

New public works director follows road to the RM

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Craig Habermehl is trading his highways history for grid roads. As the new Public Works Director for the RM of Corman Park, he’s now tracking gravel instead of paved surfaces. Habermehl started on May 3 and is beginning to get his bearings after two weeks. “I’m getting adjusted, trying to figure out where stuff is, and getting to know a bit of the size of the RM,” he said. There’s still a lot of stuff to cover, he says. “All the roads? I don’t have them memorized yet.” It’s something he chooses to do, so when ratepayers call, he knows where things are. Habermehl came over

from Associated Engineering where he worked with the Ministry of Highways. Prior to that he worked directly for the Ministry for four years. “I’ve been dealing with road building for 10 years now.” Change was a big factor in Habermehl’s decision to follow the road to the RM. He was also looking to be home more. “With general road construction you’ve got to go to where the construction is, so that means hotel stays and living out of a suitcase.” Now his daily work area doesn’t change and he’s home every night. The biggest piece of the new job is dealing with roads. Habermehl’s immediate priority is to get the

roads ship-shape for summer. The RM has 800 miles of gravel roads, plus some blacktop. “With the freeze-thaw and wet weather, it has obviously wreaked havoc on a lot of the RM roads. Now that the road ban is off, we’ll get everything re-graded and graveled where required. That’s my immediate priority, to keep our roadways accessible.” Down the road, Habermehl says he’ll start looking at long-term capital plans. Some roads are going to need serious upgrades. Dealing with waterworks is another big part of his CONTINUED ON PAGE 20

Hague vehicle dealership celebrates new beginning By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Two years after a devastating fire levelled their building and forced them into temporary quarters, management and staff at Valley Ford in Hague celebrated a new beginning on Friday, May 13. The grand opening of Valley Ford’s new facility marked the welcome end of a long and difficult journey, according to Kevin Adams, general manager of the dealership. “It’s a symbolic moment in many ways,” said Adams in an interview prior to the ribbon-cutting ceremony. “It’s important to show that we’re moving on to the next stage. We’re ready to take on a lot more and we’re excited

to see what’s in our future here.” The dealership moved into the new building last November, but held off on the official opening until everything was running smoothly and the weather was more favourable, said Adams. The new building, built under general contractor Zak’s Home Building Centre in Hague, is 30 per cent larger than the old one, said Adams. This allows the dealership more capacity for sales, maintenance and a better customer-service experience. He said the new facility is in a more visible location near Highway 11. Bob Kenny, owner of Valley Ford dealerships in both Hague and North Battleford, said “it’s satisfying and re-

warding” to see the new facility officially christened. “The staff here have worked through some very adverse conditions over the past two years, but with the help and support of the community, we’ve come through this and now we have an excellent facility,” said Kenny. “It really feels like a new beginning; absolutely.” Dozens of residents of Hague and area turned out for the event. Hague Mayor Pat Wagner said the re-opening of the dealership, an economic anchor in the town, is a “huge” event. “When you consider what happened the night of the fire and the aftermath, CONTINUED ON PAGE 19

STARS Lottery helps keep air ambulance service flying By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Life has its share of challenges for Jason Simpson of Ruthilda. But after surviving a horrific crash that left him with internal injuries and a damaged vertebrae, he’s more than willing to take whatever life brings. “The positive to the whole thing is that I’m still here, and I still have kids that are loving me, thinking of me, and never look back at any of the complications,” said Simpson. “Life goes on day by day. “I always think of the guys in the blue suits,” he added. “If it wasn’t for them I wouldn’t have made it.” Simpson is the Shock Trauma Air Rescue Service (STARS) 2016 Very Important Patient (VIP). He spoke from his wheelchair at the launch of the annual STARS Foundation Lottery on Thursday, May 12 in Saskatoon. The foundation is aiming to raise about 2.5 million through lottery proceeds, which will go towards its annual fundraising goal of $10 million. The provincial government matches those funds to provide the non-profit STARS organization with a $20 million annual budget. “I’ve taken that beautiful trip in that red helicopter,” said Simpson. “I wouldn’t recommend it to most everybody, but I’ve had that experience.” Simpson said he was driving through an intersection about seven miles south of his farm when he was tboned on the driver’s side by a one-ton truck hauling a cattle trailer. The impact pushed him partway through his own vehicle’s passenger side window. His vehicle then rolled three times before coming to rest in the ditch. Two grader operators with the RM of Mountain View happened upon the scene of the collision and called 911. The first responders extricated him from the wreckage and called STARS. “STARS came out and gave their assessment,” he said. “They picked up the

Canadians deserve referendum on electoral reform COMMENTARY By Kelly Block, MP Carlton Trail-Eagle Creek

Earlier this week the Minister of Democratic Institutions and the Government House Leader announced the next phase of the Liberal plan to change the way all of us as citizens elect our federal representatives. This phase includes establishing a Special Parliamentary Committee that will travel across Canada throughout the summer to hear Canadians views on the future of our electoral system. The Committee is composed of six Liberal members, three Conservatives members, one NDP member, one Bloc Quebecois member, and one Green party member. However, the Bloc Quebecois and Green Party members will not have a vote in the committee and therefore no say in its recommendations. Once the cross Canada tour is completed the Committee will make recommendations to Cabinet on what they think Canada’s electoral system should be going forward. Cabinet will have the final say on what gets put to a vote in the House of Commons. Since the Liberals have an outright majority on the committee it is hard to believe that any recommendation it makes will differ from the preferred outcome of the Prime Minister, which is a ranked ballot system. There are a number of electoral models to consider, each with its strengths and weaknesses. These include: 1) Proportional Representation: This model leads to the makeup of the House representing exactly the election result, but weakens the relationship between the MP and their constituents while leading to more parties and fractious governing coalitions. 2) Ranked ballot: This model reduces strategic voting and eliminates vote splitting but favours centrist parties over those that propose innovative policy ideas. This system also forces Canadians to choose a party they disagree with as a second choice on their ballot. 3) First past the post: This model leads to stable governing coalitions and the strongest link between an MP and their constituents, but it is quite common that a party can win the majority of the seats in Parliament with less than 40 per cent of the popular vote. Interestingly and most frustrating in the present debate on electoral reform is that the Liberals are refusing to leave the first past the post system on the list of options up for consideration. Furthermore, they continue to state that they have a mandate from Canadians to change the electoral system despite the fact that they were elected with 39.5% of the popular vote and this was one of dozens of campaign issues. As many have pointed out, the Liberals are showing considerable hypocrisy by stating that the first past the post system is broken, yet are using their majority in Parliament that they won, with 39.5 per cent of the vote, in October to change the way we vote. (Liberals won 54 per cent of the seats in Parliament with 39.5 per cent of the popular vote). I would note that the NDP, Greens, and Bloc Quebecois have asked that the makeup of the parliamentary committee on electoral reform be determined by each parties’ share of the popular vote and not by the share of seats in Parliament as is presently the case. To date, the Liberals have refused this request. Most importantly, the Liberals steadfastly refuse to commit to a referendum on electoral reform by making the implausible claim that it isn’t needed because we wouldn’t hear from women, young people, or aboriginals. The fact is a referendum gives every Canadian, without exception, a say in the process. Going forward, the Conservative Party will continue to push to make the Liberals give you a vote on how we as Canadians elect our federal representatives because what was proposed this week will leave the future of our electoral system entirely in the hands of this Prime Minister and his cabinet.

munities. It is all simply part of the lifestyle. That said, this tragedy has, sadly, demonstrated the penchant of others to reveal themselves at their worse. And toning down of rhetoric from all sides would have been greatly appreciated. The worse such rhetoric came from the environmental left; some of who couldn’t even wait for the evacuees to arrive to safety before they were already on social media to announce Fort McMurray residents were somehow getting what they deserved. One such idiotic comment came from a one-time Alberta NDP candidate, Tom Moffatt, who posted on his on Twitter account: “Karmic #climatechange fire burns CDN oilsands city.” For his trouble, he was suspended from this job. Others encouraged: “Burn, tar sands, burn!” Slightly less hostile social media posts suggested: “I hope everyone gets the irony of a massive fire in the heart of big oil country.” Even Green Party leader Elizabeth May told reporters: “Of course, it’s due to

global emissions.” This, of course, is nonsense. Something as unpredictable as a northern forest fire; whose devastation is driven by high winds and bad luck; cannot be directly attributed to climate change. In fact, no credible scientist would dare make such a claim. Admittedly, it wasn’t just crazy left-wingers off their their rockers. There were plenty of rightwingers accusing Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau or Alberta NDP Premier Rachel Notley of being the arsonists. Notley was evidently guilty because; at least according to the nonsense news from Ezra Levant’s The Rebel; her government seemed to have “money for everything else… but not for firefighters.” Other posts were more crude and vicious, blaming the matter on Syrian refugees. But while the Fort McMurray fire brought out the worst in some, it mostly reminded us we are all part of a caring community.

Highway 11, Wanuskewin crash results in minor injuries By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Three travelers involved in a collision at the intersection of Highway 11 and Wanuskewin Road on Thursday, May 12 escaped with minor injuries. At approximately 12:45 p.m., members of the Warman and Martensville RCMP detachments were dispatched to the scene. Saskatoon Fire and EMS attended the scene as well. A northbound Hyundai sedan was attempting to cross Highway 11 when it was struck by a GM pickup truck that was traveling eastbound on Highway 11. The 21-year-old male

pick-up truck driver from Saskatoon was treated on the scene for what were described as minor injuries and released. A 33-year-old female passenger of the sedan from Saskatoon was taken to hospital in Saskatoon with what were described as minor injuries. Another 33-year-old female from Ontario who was driving the sedan was treated on scene for minor injuries. She was charged with one count of proceeding from a stop sign before it was safe to do so. The highway was left open while emergency personnel attended the scene, but cross traffic was blocked be-

The Ministry of Highways is currently proceeding with plans to temporarily close access to Highway 11 from Range Road 3052, to address safety concerns at the hazardous intersection. The closure is expected to take effect in early June.

Venture Heights School students raised money for a water project in Madacascar last week

Martensville students walk for water, support Madagascar girls By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Inspired by Dahlia Salon & Spa’s support of the Aveda Water Aid campaign in Madagascar, Venture Heights School created their own challenge to support the campaign. Martensville students from three grade six classes raised money through sales of iced tea, bottle drives and by dipping into their own personal savings, bringing in a total of $788.35. In class, students were learning about factors that impact quality of life, in a discussion that veered toward water. “Students could not believe that approximately one billion people do not have access to clean water or sanitation,” said

Meagan Mitchell, grade six teacher at Venture Heights. “They did not know that children around the world were missing school because it was their responsibility to gather water from nearby lakes and rivers for their family to use.” Girls in Madagascar walk six kilometres a day to get water, but that water is contaminated. It’s the only option they have. Each girl hauls 40 litres up steep hills and through valleys to bring home water for the day. Girls braving the elements are vulnerable to natural and human predators. Mitchell said when Lindsy from Dahlia presented the school with an opportunity to help a community in Madagascar, they did not

hesitate to jump right in. Once they started researching the water crisis and uncovering facts related to people’s access to water, the comments and questions flooded in. “They could not believe that approximately every 21 seconds a child dies from a water-related illness. The greatest question I was asked was, ‘What can we do to help’.” She said the kids have so much heart. To show their solidarity with girls in Madagascar, the kids walked a six-kilometre route around Martensville on May 11. They took turns carrying their “Walk for Water” banner, and seemed unfazed by unseasonably low temperatures. The three classes

stopped in front of Dahlia Salon for a photo-op. Presented with the opportunity to purchase a well for a community in Madagascar, students couldn’t wait to start organizing their own fundraising events. Brent Campbell’s class raised the most at $335. Meagan Mitchell’s class raised $287.35 and Kristin Heroux’s class raised $166. Dahlia and ‘In and Out Pizza’ provided a pizza lunch for Mr. Campbell’s class since they raised the most in the challenge. “The class roared with excitement when they found out that, with Dahlia Salon, we were able to provide water for life for approximately 300 people,” said Mitchell.

Warman seeks public input on aquatic centre By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The City of Warman is testing the waters on a proposed indoor aquatic centre. A survey asking residents if they would like to see an indoor pool in the community; and if so, how much they’re willing to pay and how long they’re willing to wait for it to be built; was front and centre at the city’s annual open house event on Thursday, May 12 at the Brian King Centre. Staff and volunteers from all branches of the civic administration, including public works, Warman Fire Rescue, Recreation and Community Services, and others were on hand to answer residents’ questions and provide information on services. But one of the focal points for this year’s session was the proposal for a future aquatic facility. The project has been widely discussed in the community and is on Warman City Council’s longrange wish list, but until now, no timeline for an indoor pool has made it to the drawing board stage. It all boils down to money, and how much residents are willing to pay for such a major amenity, said Warman Finance Manager Brett Ferguson in an interview at the open house event. “We know there’s a desire out there for a facility like this because many people have expressed an interest in it,” said Ferguson. “What we’re trying to determine now is whether it is feasible from a taxpayer’s point of view. “The best way to determine that is to ask the people directly.” Ferguson said an indoor aquatic facility is being ex-

plored because Martensville already has an outdoor aquatic facility that is widely used by residents of the region, and it doesn’t make sense to duplicate services. Ferguson said if a $25 million facility similar to the Harry Bailey Aquatic Centre in Saskatoon was built, there are several different scenarios that could help guide city council’s decision. “Council has asked the city administration to run the numbers for several possible scenarios,” said Ferguson. “For example, if we looked at borrowing the money and completely debtfinancing a $25 million facility, then it could be built very quickly. “But you’d be looking at annual debt payments for 20 years or so of just under $2 million each year,” he noted. “On top of that, it’s a rule of thumb that recreational facilities generally do not break even. So it would cost an additional $500,000 annually in operational costs. “So if you went with that scenario, the annual payments would be about $2.5 million over 20 years for a $25 million facility. That translates into annual payments of about $650 per property owner annually based on our current number of taxpayers. “In other words, everyone’s taxes would go up by $650 a year to pay for it if we went that route.” Ferguson said on the other extreme, if the city set aside $200 per taxpayer annually in a designated reserve fund, it would take 34 years for the city to save up enough money to pay for the $25 million facility up front. He said the most likely CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

scenario, in the event council chooses to invest in a facility, is a combination of reserves and debt financing. It all depends on the appetite of residents for the project. A survey to gauge residents’ opinions on the project was distributed at the open house, and an online version of the survey is also being considered. While no decision on the details of the project has been made by council, a long-term reserve fund has been set up by the city in the event it proceeds. “It’s part of the long-term capital budget,” said Ferguson. “The city is setting aside $100,000 annually into the reserve fund. It was initiated last year, and it currently stands at $200,000. So next year it will be at $300,000.” For a $25 million facility, the current reserve is literally a drop in the bucket, agreed Ferguson. “This is really just the beginning of the conversation with residents,” said Fergu-

Fire bans lifted in region Fire bans in several area municipalities have been lifted. Cooler weather and timely rains in recent days have eased the fire hazard, according to officials. The RM of Corman Park, City of Warman, Town of

Dalmeny and the RM of Vanscoy are among those municipalities that lifted the prohibition on open fires. The fire bans were put in place in late April and were lifted on Tuesday, May 10. Dalmeny Fire Rescue

Public Information Officer Joanne Elder said while the fire bans are no longer in place, the public is still avised to use extreme caution and to call in any controlled burns to the provincial fire control centre at 1-866-404-4911.

TERRY PUGH | CLARK”S CROSSING GAZETTE

Residents of Warman were keen to ask questions about the proposed indoor aquatic facility during the city’s annual open house event on Thursday, May 12 son. “If most people feel it’s worthwhile, then there will be more public engagement,

a feasibility study and an open house specifically on this proposal.”

Every time you leave the boundaries of the two major centres, you’re in rural Saskatchewan. “Every time you see that big red helicopter flying overhead, remember it is there to protect people and give them a better chance of a happy conclusion to a very bad day,” he said. Dr. Anne Doig, a member of the STARS board of directors, said the speciallyequipped helicopters bring the intensive care of a wellequipped operating room right into the field to help

people in dire need. “It’s an important concept,” said Doig. “And this is being done through a nonprofit organization. There are no shareholders reaping a benefit from the work of STARS. “This is all being done for the people of this province,” she added. “I encourage everyone to buy a lottery ticket.” The lottery has prizes valued at more than $4 million retail, including a fullyfurnished 3,489 square-foot, two-storey show home in Saskatoon’s Greenbryre neighbourhood.

Warman gears up for rugby showcase By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A junior boys rugby team made up of area high school students is off to a winning start this season. The Springboks have three wins and one loss under their belt after downing Lashburn 22-17 on Thursday, May 12. It was the second meeting between the two clubs, with the Springboks winning 20-0 on May 5 in Saskatoon. The Springboks, made up of Grade 9-12 boys from Warman, Martensville and other area communities, have only one blemish on the season so far. They lost a close contest to their arch-nemesis, the Saskatoon All-Blacks on a wild and rainy evening May 10. “That was a real rumble in the rain,” said Springboks head coach Tyler Eaglesham in an interview on May 11. “It was fast and furious, and our guys played well.” The Springboks are one of two local junior teams competing in the North Saskatchewan Rugby Union (NSRU) league. The other team is the Sirens, made up of Martensville, Warman and area high school girls. The Sirens are a feeder team for the Saskatoon Kirin, a women’s rugby team based in Saskatoon; while the Springboks play under the auspices of the Saskatoon Krems, an adult men’s team. Several Springboks’ graduates have made the jump to the Krems in recent years. It’s the third year for the Springboks, and Eaglesham said the skill level of the players has increased considerably since their first season. “The ‘Rugby IQ’ has definitely gone up,” said Eaglesham. “We have about half a dozen guys who’ve played a few years now with this

team, and who are also involved in the Team Sask Rugby program. “When they’re able to play at that high a level, they start right into the season and make a big impact very quickly.” Eaglesham said the sport is becoming more popular thanks to growing exposure locally, as well as the inclusion of rugby in the next Olympic games. “There’s a trend where sports that were once considered marginal, like rugby and lacrosse, are becoming more mainstream,” said Eaglesham. “I think it’s a great thing. The more different kinds of sports that kids play, the better. They learn a lot of skills in one game they can apply in others.” Eaglesham said rugby is a team sport that has a place for many different types of players, from the big and beefy to the small and nimble. “Everybody plays offense and defense,” said Eaglesham. “It’s a game that’s constantly shifting and the action is very fast. You don’t just play one position or have a single role.” The sport is set to take centre stage later this month during the annual Rugby Day in Warman event slated for Neufeld Field in Warman on Saturday, May 28. The day features family-oriented sideline activities and a full slate of four games during the afternoon, including junior boys, junior girls, adult men’s and adult women’s games. The bonus is a “rugby mini’s” game featuring elementary school children. “We’re changing up the format a bit this year for Rugby Day in Warman,” said Eaglesham. “The marquee events this year are the junior boys and junior girls games instead of the CONTINUED ON PAGE 12

AGING AND THE BRAIN

PART 2

Experts point to 5 types of aging that can help us understand the concept of neuroplasticity:

CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE • THURSDAY, MAY 19, 2016

FITN ESS TI

1. Chronological Age: Is the number of years that we have been living. It cant be changed or trained. The other four varieties of age can be inﬂuenced though.

2. Functional Age: Is the ability of to accomplish daily activities that we need and want to do, based on demographics, and culture. Functional Age training simply helps individuals get better at performing these tasks. 3. Biological Age: Is how we compare with others who share our demographics and chronological age. This can address physiological issues, with goals such as reversing the effects of diabetes or reducing cholesterol or blood sugar levels. 4. Social Age: Is our ability to get along with others of our own age and cultural framework. This type of training involves working in a small group to accomplish task-dependent projects. 5. Psychological Age: Is our ability to use the brains major functions to accomplish that demonstrate independence and self-efﬁcacy. Psychological age training adds neuroplasticity exercises that put various functions and sections of the brain to work. The Two Sides of the Brain When choosing exercises for functional, social, biological or psychological aging, one must consider the major brain functions and the sections of the brain that control them. Left: Controls speech, language, math, analytical skills, memories of names and words, and motor skills of the right side of the body. Right: Controls mostly creative skills (including problem solving), emotions, memories of images like faces, spatial zones and patterns of details, and motor skills of the left side of the body.

Harvest for Kids cultivates future for young people

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Children’s Camps International (CCI) is looking to send a lot of kids in poverty-stricken countries to summer camp this year. And they’re relying on the generosity of donors to make that happen. Over the past dozen years, well over a million impoverished children have benefited from the life-changing experience, which offers them a sense of hope for the future. One of the most successful annual projects CCI has going for it is Harvest For Kids (H4K), a program that allows farmers to donate the proceeds from their crops to the Christian-based charitable organization. In Saskatchewan, H4K raises funds every autumn in several communities, as field crops earmarked for the cause are taken off by local farmers who volunteer their labour and equipment. In 2012, H4K organizers captured the Guiness World Record for the most combines operating simultaneously in the same field. A total of 249 machines were

Volunteers donated the proceeds from a canola crop last fall to Harvest for Kids part of the effort, which took place just north of Dalmeny. The world record still stands. That was the biggest H4K event so far, but it’s actually the ongoing small projects that make up the bulk of the donations which keep CCI operating, said H4K Coordinator Wendell Andres of Dalmeny. “Worldwide, we’re looking to raise about $7 million annually,” said Andres in an interview on Wednesday,

May 11. “Harvest for Kids is one of many ways people can get involved. It’s also the most successful. “Last fall, we took off a crop of canola near Saskatoon that averaged about 60 bushels to the acre. That raised about $70,000 from that 150-acre field alone.” This year, the charity is seeding several area fields to peas, wheat and canola. A core group of about 10 farmers is organizing the whole

operation from seeding to harvest, said Andres. Support for the project is also obtained from agricultural input suppliers. This year, H4K is working in partnership with Redberry Bible Camp to raise funds through the sale of a crop grown on farmland owned by the camp on the east side of Redberry Lake. “It’s a program called ‘Double your numbers’ and the objective is for Redberry Camp to raise enough money

to send 1,000 kids in Mexico to a summer camp in that country,” said Andres, a former director of the Redberry Bible Camp. “Every year, about 1,000 youngsters attend the Redberry camp, and they want to have kids in Mexico get that same kind of experience. “So half of the money raised from the sale of that crop will go to help Redberry ‘double their numbers’. The other half of the funds will go to CCI.

“There will be a big harvest celebration in early October once that project wraps up,” said Andres. With harvest still several months away, H4K organizers are currently putting their efforts into a fundraising event slated for Hepburn on Saturday, June 4. “It’s a pitchfork fondue supper that features deepfried steak, hot dogs, salads and other good stuff,” said Andres. “Admission is by donation.” The supper features live entertainment including two country bands. Back Forty kicks off the show at 5:00 p.m. and BJ and Friends from Waldheim take the stage for the second set, winding up at about 8:30 p.m During the half-time break, an illusionist and a special surprise guest entertainer will be on hand. There’s also plenty of kids’ activities and a nearby playground. Andres said the public is encouraged to attend the family-friendly event. “It will be a lot of fun and it’s for a great cause,” he said.

NICU care of newborns celebrated at ‘Bloom’ By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca When the life of a newborn hangs perilously in the balance, the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) marshals all its resources to save that life. Many people who have benefited from NICU in those critical moments want to give back. They had that opportunity at ‘Bloom: an Evening of Love,’ a gala evening to raise funds for NICU. Now in its fifth year, Bloom was originally founded by those who felt a debt of gratitude to NICU. Amy Novakovski’s newborn son failed to breathe when he was born and sub-

sequently had aspiration problems. He landed in the NICU where he spent four days fighting for his life. ‘Dutch’ as he is known, is four now. “He’s perfect,” said Novakovski. He is a twin, born after his sister who was healthy from the start. Bloom was originally conceived on a smaller scale and with a different name. Due to the response, what started with a steak night to raise a couple thousand dollars expanded into a larger vision. On May 14 over 300 guests attended the sold out event at the Travelodge Hotel. The name changed to

Bloom last year. “We decided to change gears and go a little bit more classic with our event versus the traditional steak night,” said Novakovski, who serves as coevent director alongside Tina Searcy. “We wanted a name that would encompass the event that could mean everything - the motherhood, the babies - so that’s where Bloom came from.” Generosity was in bloom at this Evening of Love, both in monetary and emotional support. Several stories were shared of those who have been helped by

Bloom co-event directors Tina Searcy (left) and Amy Novakovski thanked the Bloom crowd as well as their sponsors for their support.

Clavet youth create national safety video Two students from Clavet Composite School won awards for their entries in a national youth safety video contest earlier this month. Shannen Garibay and Maria Himbeault of Clavet created compelling videos that earned them top honours in a North America Occupational Safety (NAOSH) Week con-

test. The first week of May is recognized as Safety Week. The Clavet students’ videos can be viewed on the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety website, www.ccohs.ca. The week, which featured a series of events across the country, was launched on Monday, May 2 in Ottawa.

The Honourable MaryAnn Mihychuk, Minister of Employment, Workforce Development and Labour addressed CEOs, employees and safety advocates at a forum. NAOSH Week events in Saskatchewan included safety demonstrations, barbecues and a Safety Officers Appreciation Night in Saskatoon.

Many silent auction items were up for bid, from restaurant gift cards, to artwork, pottery and woodwork. A grand prize of a trip to New Orleans was donated by Gateway Travel in Martensville. Tickets for a Westjet flight for two anywhere they travel were raffled at

new role. “We have to test our own water. We get water from the city, Sask water, but we still have to test the water and make sure its safe, I believe it’s three times a week,” he said. May 15 to 21 has been designated Public Works Week in the province of Saskatchewan. The theme “Public Works – Always There” highlights the comprehensive impact public works has on Saskatchewan lifestyles.

We count on public works to provide potable water, collect wastewater, do snow removal, garbage collection, road maintenance and replace infrastructure. Their services are essential. “We all need safe drinking water, whether it’s from a well or hooked into the city system. And we also need roads to get from ‘A’ to ‘B’. So, I think public works is essential,” says Habermehl. Due to recent rainfalls, the roads are in pretty tough condition right now, he says.

“But we have 10 grader zones with a total of 10 graders running right now on a 10 to 14 day rotation, depending on the weather. “We’re going to get to all the roads as quickly and efficiently as we can. So we ask for patience within the community to allow this to happen.” Habermehl looks forward to serving the RM with its various mini-communities, hamlets or small farms, wherever the roads take him.

Health facility visitors gain flexible hours Visitors to health facilities in the province will soon enjoy greater flexibility with visiting hours. Saskatchewan will be the first Canadian province to take a provincial approach to an open family presence policy which will welcome visitors 24 hours a day, seven days a week, based on the patient’s preference. Health Minister Dustin Duncan said the approach recognizes families are important partners in patient

care, and not simply visitors. The patient determines who comprises their family, whether that is relatives or others they are close to. “This is a great example of improving the patient experience, and we support it 100 per cent,” Duncan said. “Loved ones play an essential role in improving patients’ health, and help further our goal of providing high-quality, patient-focused care.” Open family presence is

an internationally recognized best practice that can benefit patients in many ways, including increased co-ordination of care with front-line staff, fewer medication errors, fewer readmissions, and an overall better patient and family experience. “If I had been allowed to be at my mom’s bedside on my own terms, I would not have felt as much anxiety,” patient and family advisor Serese Selanders said. “The

time left with my mom was measured in days. Every hour that we were prevented from seeing her was time we will never get back. Open family presence will change health care by helping everyone recognize that the ‘team’ includes families and loved ones.” All health regions adopted this policy on March 31 and are at various stages of implementation. The experience of patients and families may vary during this time.

A new ‘open family presence’ policy is being implemented by the Ministry of Health
