Martensville-Warman MLA Nancy Heppner Heppner pointed out that Warman actually experienced a 27.22 per cent increase in revenue-sharing funding for the 2017-18 budget year compared to 2016-17. Warman’s 2017-18 revenue-sharing grant from the province is $2,076,640. Last year, in 2016-17, Warman received $1,547,051 in revenuesharing.

The annual gain of $529,589, however, was reduced by $108,413 as part of the government’s adjustment of surcharges by SaskPower and SaskEnergy. That left the city with a net gain of $421,176 in revenuesharing. Martensville’s increase in revenue-sharing was more modest at 2.14 per cent. Its total revenue-sharing grant in 2017-18 is $1,817,531, compared to a total of $1,685,071 in 2016-17. The annual gain of $132,460, however, was reduced by $96,441 as a result of the surcharge adjustment, leaving Martensville with a net gain of $36,019. The provincial government announced on March 31 it is capping GILT reductions to Saskatchewan municipalities at a maximum of 30 per cent of the amount

Province caps GILT reduction The provincial government announced on March 31 that it will cap the grants-in-lieu reduction to municipalities at no more than 30 per cent of the amount the municipality receives in revenue sharing. “As the province moves away from its dependence on resource revenues and addresses a $1.2 billion revenue shortfall, we made the decision to cancel the grants-in-lieu paid to municipalities by SaskPower and SaskEnergy,” Government Relations Minister Donna Harpauer said. “For the vast majority of municipalities, this was equivalent to reducing their revenue sharing by about 15 per cent or less. “However, for a few, the reduction was more than 30 per cent. After discussions with SUMA, we felt that it

was too much of a burden to put on those municipalities, so we are capping the reduction to ensure that no municipality will see a reduction of more than 30 per cent of their revenue sharing amount.” The 30 per cent cap will result in nine municipalities retaining a portion of their grants-in-lieu payments from SaskPower and SaskEnergy. They are Estevan, Humboldt, Melfort, Melville, Moose Jaw, North Battleford, Prince Albert, Weyburn and Yorkton. While these payments by SaskPower and SaskEnergy are referred to as grants-inlieu of taxes, they are actually based on a flat percentage of utility sales within a municipality and are unrelated to the value of property. The $29 million in grants-

in-lieu based on estimated property taxes on provincially-owned assets are still being paid to municipalities by other Crowns and government ministries. SaskPower also collects a municipal surcharge on power bills, which results in another $74 million for municipalities. Municipalities will also receive $257 million in municipal revenue sharing this year, more than double the amount they received in revenue sharing a decade ago. Harpauer said the grantsin-lieu reduction is a oneyear measure as part of the government’s three year plan to return to balance and that the government will be meeting with SUMA and SARM to discuss a complete revamping of the various streams of funding municipalities receive from the province.

the municipality receives in annual revenue-sharing. Government Relations Minister Donna Harpauer said the cap is aimed at easing the burden on many municipalities that rely heavily on GILT payments. Harpauer pointed out that while these payments by SaskPower and SaskEnergy are referred to as grants-in-lieu of taxes, they are actually based on a flat percentage of utility sales within a municipality and are unrelated to the value of property. Harpauer said SaskPower also collects a municipal surcharge on power bills, which results in another $74 million for municipalities. Harpauer said the grantsin-lieu reduction is a “oneyear measure” as part of the government’s threeyear plan to tackle the deficit. She said the government will be meeting with rural and urban municipal organizations to discuss a complete revamping of the various streams of funding municipalities receive from the province.

Martensville, Warman on plus side of revenue sharing, Heppner says The cities of Martensville and Warman received increases in provincial revenue-sharing funds over the last year. Martensville-Warman MLA Nancy Heppner noted that Warman had a net gain of $421,176 in provincial revenue-sharing for the 2017-18 year over the 2016-17 year. Similarly, Martensville had a net gain of $36,019 for 2017-18 over 2016-17. The increases are due to increased population in both cities. The calculations are based on an established formula. Even though both cities experienced reductions in provincial grants-in-lieu of taxation (GILT) funding in the recent provincial budget, they were among the few municipalities to be spared reductions in provincial revenue-sharing funds.

Warman play runner-up at Regional Drama Festival By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca The Warman High School (WHS) kicked off the Friday night line-up for the Region 11 Drama Festival at Walter Murray Collegiate in Saskatoon, playing to a packed auditorium. Their play, “The Park,” won second place out of 10 plays in the competition. First place went to Walter Murray. “The cast and crew were very happy with, and proud of, our finish at Regionals. I think it validates a lot of the hard work and extra time we put in,” said Brett Rowland, co-director of the production along with Tennille Fishley and Roxanne Bitner. WHS also won runner up for “Best Visual Production.” “We pride ourselves in knowing that we want to have a performance that will compete with the best productions there, and this year’s effort did that.” The Park is about a man who is fighting against progress in his society. He tries desperately to hang onto his apartment, which is destined for destruction, but ends up living in a park, until the same unnamed company inevitably decides to ‘renovate’ it as well. While the topic leaned to the serious, the students’ interpretation of it brought in some humour. Jonny MacPherson played the lead

role of the ‘dweller.’ “Our main character tries to seduce a woman with a can of beans,” said Rowland. The audience enjoyed MacPherson’s lighter take on the disgruntled dweller. “The students have a fantastic sense of humour, so sometimes you’ve got to sit back and just watch them go with it,” added Rowland. The dweller keeps a pet cat in a pet-free building. The directors and cast decided to tweak that a bit. Their cat, played by Parker Hildebrandt, is an illegal immigrant who is like a park performer who dresses up like a cat to beg for money. Hildebrandt’s silent slinking to avoid the cat inspector (Amy Remeshylo) offers an entertaining sideline in the play. Students gain valuable experience and a greater appreciation of the arts through being involved in a play like this. “I think they learn a lot of teamwork and they learn some new things about themselves by being challenged to interpret a script, interpret their characters and find new ways of bringing out those character’s energy,” said Rowland. One of the challenges to Regionals this year was to choose a Canadian play. Geoffrey Ursell, a Saskatoon playwright wrote “The Park.” The Festival ran from March 30 to

Although it’s a competition, Rowland says all the actors are supportive of each other. “This is the best audience to perform in front of, and kids get to make some friends from different

schools. It’s a really positive experience.” Adjudication is a valuable part of the experience as well. The adjudicator told the Warman group that since this was an absurdist

play, they should look for ways to speed up the scenes and the scene changes. Ashton Turner won a Certificate of Merit for acting for his role as The Caller, Jonny Macpherson won an

Acting Award of Merit for his role as The Dweller, Emily Zunti won a Spirit of the Festival award and Andrew Booker won a Certificate of Merit for “Sound Endeavour”.

Wheatland Library devastated by funding cuts By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca The Wheatland Regional Library (WRL) is one of many library systems across the province currently reeling as a result of steep funding cuts brought down by the Saskatchewan government. “We’re devastated,” said Kim Hebig, Director of the WRL. “It was completely shocking. We had no warning and it comes at a time when we’ve already spent part of our budget.” The cuts represent approximately 58 per cent of the funding the WRL normally receives from the province. The decision was announced on March 22 when the provincial budget came down. The WRL won’t have exact numbers until sometime in May. “For this year alone, its probably going to be over half a million dollars that we have to make up,” Hebig said. “The cuts are going to affect our central headquarters right out to our branches. We’re going to have to pull services, we’ll be pulling back our book budgets, databases all that kind of stuff.” The WRL called a meeting of its executive board to bring Hebig, who had just returned from a maternity leave, up to speed. The WRL took exception to Don Morgan’s position that the province needs to move from “brick and mortar” libraries and focus on

electronic or alternate media. “They need to understand that [these cuts] affect people and that their belief that nobody uses libraries anymore is misguided. It’s not true.

Safety improvements needed at highway intersection: Osler council By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca While Osler town councillors are glad to see construction work underway on the Highway 11 overpass at the junction with Highway 305, they are also calling for improvements to the existing intersection to make it safer. “There really needs to be an acceleration lane for traffic from Highway 305 turning north onto Highway 11,” said Osler Mayor Abe Quiring. “There also needs to be a dedicated de-

celeration lane for southbound traffic on Highway 11 turning west onto Highway 305.” The concerns were raised during a discussion at the Osler town council meeting on Tuesday, March 28. Currently, Highway 11 northbound-traffic turning west onto Highway 305 has a deceleration, leftturn lane. There is also an acceleration lane for southbound Highway 11 traffic that entered from Highway 305.

Hague Elementary School

PHOTO: PSSD

Rosthern RCMP investigating white powder incident at Hague School By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca On March 17, Rosthern RCMP responded to a report of a suspicious envelope that was delivered to the Hague Elementary School. Sargeant Earl LeBlanc from the RCMP provincial communications branch said the delivery was made after hours. “There was no threat at the time to either students or staff.” The package was seized by the police and the investigation is ongoing. The Hague Elementary School is part of the Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD). Clark’s Crossing Gazette obtained a copy of a note sent home with the students by the school. “At the end of the school day on March 17, 2017 an envelope was received through regular mail at the office of the Hague Elementary School. The envelope was suspicious in nature, containing a white powder, and the RCMP was immediately contacted.” The note went on to state that the RCMP gathered information from two staff members at the school. PSSD is working collaboratively with the RCMP on matters of safety and following their recommendations. LeBlanc could not comment on whether the incident is connected to a rash of white powder deliveries in the city of Saskatoon. If such connections exist, it would be up to the investigating detachment to make them, he said. But the Hague incident is its own investigation. Brenda Erickson with the PSSD said since the incident was at the end of the day, the students were gone and no lockdown was necessary. She added that the division hasn’t heard anything further from the RCMP about the incident. “Once more information is available it will be shared if the RCMP approves it.”

ADVERTISING THAT WON’T BREAK THE BANK... 306.668.0575

For Osler town councillors, it’s a mystery why the same safety measures weren’t built into the intersection for traffic going in the opposite directions. Quiring noted that Highway 11 southbound traffic is forced to move onto the shoulder in order to slow down for the right-hand turn onto Highway 305. “That’s not very safe,” said Quiring. “Particularly in the winter if the shoulder is icy.” Osler councillor Rick Zarowny said an acceleration lane northbound on Highway 11 at that intersection is also badly needed. “If you are waiting to turn left at the median,

it’s difficult to see if the oncoming traffic is occupying both lanes,” said Zarowny. “Plus, you have to accelerate very quickly in what is supposed to be a passing lane. It’s dangerous.” The council has already brought their concerns to the provincial Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure, and further discussions with the Ministry are in the works. Osler town councillor

SAVE

Josh Peters raised the issue at the recent Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association (SUMA) convention in Saskatoon during a session with the Minister of Highways and Infrastructure. Peters pointed out this is not simply a local issue, and that all major highway intersections across the province should have acceleration and deceleration lanes to allow traffic to flow safely.

TIME & MONEY

At the March 28 town council meeting, Osler councillor James O’Neil said while the current interesection may be temporary until the new overpass is built, that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be safe. “Not having those lanes may have saved some money, but if a person is killed there, is it worth someone’s life?” said O’Neil. “It’s amazing that no one has been killed there yet.”

Report from the

Legislature

Nancy Heppner MLA

MARTENSVILLE-WARMAN CONSTITUENCY

By now, we’ve all had time to digest the provincial budget that was tabled two weeks ago. There is no question; this was a difficult budget. The province has a $1.2 billion hole in resource revenue that needs to be filled. We will not shy away from making those difficult decisions; we will not do what the federal government and many other provinces are doing by planning for deficit budgets far into the future without a clue or a care as to who will pay for that ever-increasing debt. Instead, we have a plan to return to balanced budgets in three years. While the PST has been increased and expanded to realize additional revenues, your personal incomes taxes will be reduced and the low income tax credit has increased. Even after the recent tax changes, we are all paying less than we did in 2007. Then, a family of 4 with a combined income of $50,000 paid over $3,000 in taxes (PST/personal income tax); this year, that same family will pay just $716 in provincial taxes. Some services have been trimmed. I would like to address some of the concerns that have been discussed in the media and that I have heard in my office. On the issue of library funding, there is a perception that over half of regional libraries’ total funding is being cut. That is not the case. Libraries are, and always have been, primarily a municipal responsibility. Provincial grants make up just a portion of total library budgets; provincial grants are not intended for local branch day-to-day operations, which are the responsibility of the municipality. The provincial funding focuses instead on things like interlibrary loans, electronic resources, and community net. Municipal governments have the option of increasing funding to their libraries if they deem it necessary (municipal funding for libraries currently varies greatly across the province). It will be important for regional libraries, including Wheatland (which we continue to fund at 22% of their total budget), to find new efficiencies and to explore innovative ways to deliver these important services. In many communities, there is both a local public library and a library within the schools. Warman has set a great example of partnering; the regional library was recently moved to inside the new Middle Years School. It still has the same accessibility to the public community, operates outside of traditional school hours but with less overhead costs. On the issue of municipal revenue sharing, the record of this government is unparalleled. Since 2007, provincial revenue sharing with the City of Martensville has gone up 259% and to the City of Warman by 327%. While there is a reduction this year of the Sask Energy surcharge transferred to municipalities of around $100,000 to both Warman and Martensville, this is less than the increase both cities are receiving from our revenue sharing agreement. Both cities are receiving more money from the province than they did last year. Your government believes in leading by example. While we are seeking a 3.5% reduction in total public employee compensation this budget, as of April 1st, all MLAs and staff will see a roll back of our wages of 3.5%. Commuters on Highways 11 & 12 may have noticed that construction began last week on new overpasses at Warman and Martensville. Residents of these communities who can look forward to completion by 2019. Finishing touches are now being put on four new schools. Joint public-Catholic schools will be open this fall in both Warman and Martensville. Traditions Elementary School and Holy Trinity Catholic School in Warman, and Lake Vista Public School and Holy Mary Catholic School in Martensville will all open their doors in September 2017. This will relieve tremendous pressure on all of the other schools in these two cities. This is a very exciting time for students and teachers alike. I would like to thank all our community leaders and parents who worked with us to make this happen.

A frankly frivolous ‘Fakebook’ rant Lifestyle Files

HILARY KLASSEN When Facebook first blew past MySpace to dominate social media it was all the talk. A movie (The Social Network) was made about it. People piled on in droves. Early on, it seemed to be the new confessional for young people who likely indulged in a little too much self-disclosure. We learned things we didn’t want to know. When their parents showed up in Facebook, a lot of the young ones bailed, opting for other upcoming platforms, like SnapChat or Instagram.

down their posts, with some glaring and amusing exceptions. Personally, I have a likehate relationship with Facebook. Not love-hate. Or maybe it’s a tolerate-hate relationship. For one, people are getting smarter (or is it dumber) on the platform. Their profiles are more carefully managed. Yawn. It’s like a family Christmas card. It’s nice to get but it doesn’t tell you much. It has morphed into Fakebook. Now we are treated to a plethora of safe, sanitized content. We see themes like cooking, humour, self-tests (are you this or that?), family photos, animals and the like. At the end of 2016 there were 1.86 billion monthly active users. One report says there are 1.15 billion mobile daily active users. Clearly there are masses who love it more than I do. Like the ego-wall Facebooker. This person is busi-

NEWS & PHOTO SUBMISSION TIPS

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

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. Set your camera to the highest resolution possible. The more resolution, the better the final outcome of the photo in print. Don’t be shy! Get close to your subject(s). Most photos taken with a builtin zoom lens extended will capture “grainy” images that do not reproduce well. Attempt to get dynamic photos of something happening instead of just a quick snapshot. “Presentation” photos typically don’t work well if there are too many people side-by-side in the frame. If there are up to four people in the photo, have them as close together as possible and, if more than four, have the front row seated and the back row standing. Remember taking a picture facing into the sun or bright light will produce poor quality images.

er than most with social posturing, posting selfies and tidbits of information designed to line up admirers. Or the full-time Facebooker. This person may post every 20 minutes all day long. Regretably, I have to ‘unfollow’ you because I experience scrolling fatigue trying to get past all your material. It’s all good, but my time is finite. What about the sentimental, positivity Facebooker? This person shares sweet sentiments and feel-good inspirational sayings with nice backgrounds. What’s not to love? The teaser facebooker is simply annoying. Here’s a few words and now everybody jump in and ask what they’re referring to. Goodbye. The latest is the Facebook broadcaster. It’s not enough that Facebook has a so-called “News” feed. Now it has live broadcasting features. Don’t get me wrong, I care about you. But only

in rare cases will I look at your live broadcast. Again, it’s the time thing. Do I trust you to have trimmed down the content to only the barest essentials? Is everyone a pro-broadcaster? I err on the side of caution. Perhaps it shouldn’t be surprising that fake news has found the fake platform. Social media is now the easiest way for all kinds of questionable people to find each other. It’s also an advertisers heaven. It is both much more and much less than a social network. Where it is headed is anybody’s guess. Something else will come along. I predict an increase in private groups with greater vetting, that generate underground movements that steal across the global landscape, and break out when the time is right. Or not. Meanwhile, it’s what we do. We amuse ourselves. Who am I to argue with a quarter of the world’s population?

Bylaw enforcement looks at home-based businesses

The Bylaw Enforcement Officer is currently focussing on Home Based Business and Home Occupations. Both are commercial operations carried out on residential properties in Corman Park. They must ensure the character of the district is not disturbed by dust, noise, smoke or smell generated by the use or substantially more traffic and parking than is normal is created. Home Occupations must be conducted entirely within the dwelling unit and cannot have any exterior evidence such as no outside storage or exterior display of goods, materials or equipment; no external advertising; and no use of an accessory building such as a garage. A Home Based Business is the conduct of a business from a residential dwelling unit or an accessory building on the premises. A Home Based Business allows for up to two (2) outside employees not living in the dwelling unit; outside storage or exterior display of goods, materials or equip-

ment and external advertising. If a Home Based Business involves any outdoor storage or display, landscaping, fencing, or other screening is required to buffer the proposed development from adjacent neighbours. Please note the outdoor storage of raw materials and unfinished goods associated with a Home Based Business is prohibited in multi-parcel country residential districts.

RM of Corman Park Police Report Road bans are here

Submitted by Police Chief John Garnet The month of March saw an increase in the number of suspicious vehicle complaints in the RM. This can mean any number of things that include stolen vehicles, people driving around looking for stuff to steal, broken down vehicles or people just out for a drive enjoying the nice weather. If you come across a vehicle that appears to be stopped or abandoned and don’t believe it belongs - give us a call. We can very quickly check to see if it’s stolen or if the owner lives in the area and then take action if required.

What this means is that the total weight allowed of a vehicle is reduced by about 20 per cent so trucks must carry significantly reduced loads. The police have the authority to escort trucks 40 km to scales to have them weighed or in some cases we may weigh them on portable scales. Road bans are put in place by the province to help prevent damage to the road infrastructure while the frost is coming out of the ground and the roads are soft. If you see loaded trucks please give us a call. Haulers can call our public works department if they require an exemption.

Control burns

Many people are thinking of doing control burns now that the snow is gone. Please take care with burning and notify the control burn hotline at 1 866 404 4911 before you start. It’s also time to check with your home insurance to ensure you have adequate firefighting insurance. Volunteer firefighting insurance is an extra on your home policy – don’t be left holding a large bill because you never checked.

TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT

Traffic enforcement has been very busy in March

(we wrote 276 tickets ). We frequently get people asking for breaks and many people think their excuse is valid. Although we understand that you may be in a hurry to pick the kids up from school, on the way to a medical appointment, late for church, late for work or any other “valid” reason we see you as a hazard on the road when you speed or run stop signs. When people hurry they become preoccupied and distracted with their task. Please drive with care.

SGI has designated April as vulnerable road user month. Please keep an eye out for the other users of the roads including motorcycles, pedestrians, cyclists, and anyone else that has the right to use the roadways.

Warman school joins salon in clean water campaign

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca Dahlia Salon was named a top-10 fundraiser for WaterAid in Canada last year, and now they’re keen to raise more money this year for clean water in Madagascar. “We are so excited to launch our Water Aid 2017 Campaign and kick off Earth Month!” said Candace Braaten from Dahlia. “Last year we were able to provide 335 human beings in Madagascar clean water for life.” The Dahlia team and the community raised $8375 toward the project. Girls in Madagascar walk six kilometres every day just to retrieve contaminated water. The girls are vulnerable to attacks from wild animals and even human predators. Many drop out of school because there are no private toilets. Diarrhea caused by dirty water and bad sanitation is the second biggest child killer worldwide. Many children don’t live to see their fifth birthday, Braaten says. Last year, students at the Venture Heights School in Martensville joined Dahlia in raising funds for WaterAid. Grade seven students walked six kilometres in solidarity with girls in Madagascar. “This year, Warman Community Middle School is working with us to raise funds - the entire school of 600-plus students,” said Braaten. “They are thrilled to help others in need. We cannot wait for them to do the six-kilometre walk with us!” Dahlia’s 2017 WaterAid Campaign kicks off Earth Month. “We can never express enough gratitude to our community, all of our guests and friends for last years efforts,” said Braaten. Dahlia hopes for that kind of support for this year’s campaign. As a salon, they are a major consumer of water and they’ve chosen WaterAid as a logical way for them to give back.

KidSport playhouse ready to be raffled off By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The finishing touches on a custom-built two-storey playhouse were completed last week at Warman High School’s industrial arts shop. The playhouse is slated to be put on public display this week. The playhouse will be raffled off to raise funds for the Martensville and Warman KidSport charities. KidSport provides financial assistance to low-income families to help youngsters participate in organized sports in the community. This is the second year for the KidSport playhouse fundraising project, a joint effort involving the Martensville A&W, the Martensville and District Lions Cub, Martensville and Warman KidSport, Clark’s Crossing Gazette and Warman High School. The first playhouse was built during the 20152016 academic year by students at Martensville High School. Last fall, Warman High School Industrial Arts teacher Terry Martin committed to having the playhouse completed by early April. While the original plan intended it to be a project for a select group of students, that didn’t work out due to unforeseen factors. That meant Martin did almost all the work on his

own, with occasional assistance from students during class time for larger jobs like installing the roof rafters. He estimates that over 300 hours of labour went into the project. “It was a lot of work, but it really was worth it,” said Martin in an interview on Wednesday, March 29 as he was busy putting the finishing touches on the building. “I gave my word it was going to get done, so it had to get done. “It feels great that it’s almost finished, but what I’m really happy about is all the kids that are going to benefit from this project because of the money that it will raise for KidSport.” Martensville KidSport Coordinator Angie Reddekopp said the project raised about $10,000 for the charity last year, and she’s hoping this year’s raffle is just as successful. “The community responded really well,” said Reddekopp. “I think part of the appeal is that all the funds raised locally stay right here in our communities, and go to help kids right here at home. We really didn’t know what to expect last year, since it was the first time we tried something like this, but we were really happy with the result.” Reddekopp said the project

has also increased awareness of KidSport and its mandate. As a result, there are more applications for financial assistance coming in every day. “There’s a big need in the communities,” said Reddekopp. “Demand is increasing, so we need to raise more money every year.” The playhouse is wired for electrical lighting and the interior is finished with drywall, flooring and baseboards. The building has 64 square feet of space on the main floor and 98 square feet on the second floor. It also has a four foot by eight foot covered veranda porch at the front. But the most eye-catching feature is the customdesigned, hand-made door built from scratch by Martin. “The raised-panel door is my little personal touch,” said Martin. “I started with rough two-by-ten poplar wood, planed it down and cut it to size, and then used the right router bits for it. It’s a three-bit operation, and they all fit into each other and basically make a jigsaw puzzle.” Donations from local suppliers helped keep the cost of building materials low. The playhouse is built on skids to allow it to be moved. Early next week it will be taken on a flat deck tow truck to a highly-visible location in Warman. After about it a month on display in that community, it will then be moved again to the parking lot in front of the A&W on Centennial Drive, the city’s main business frontage road. Tickets for the KidSport playhouse draw will be available for purchase soon.

HAGUE ARENA UPGRADES DONATION

PHOTO SUBMITTED BY ALICE FUNK

Between periods of a Midget Provincial hockey game, members of The Hague Parks and Recreation Board were asked to step onto the ice for a presentation. Dale Zimmer (centre) of Richardson Pioneer, presented a cheque for $10,000 to Tanya Derksen and Jay Wall, members of the parks board, to be used for arena upgrades. Upon speaking to a member of Richardson’s communications committee, she said,” The donation to the Town of Hague’s Parks and Recreation board was important to us because we see the value that the arena brings to the community. It’s where families come together. We always focus on supporting projects that enhance the quality of life in the communities where our employees and grower customers live and work. Through the Richardson Foundation, Richardson donated over $1.45 million in 2016 to 72 community projects and organizations across Western Canada. That giving continues through 2017.”

Martensville Fire Chief Kurtis Dyck said the Martensville Fire Department responded with two engines and a tanker. The fire, which was called in at about 1:20 p.m., was contained to an outside area. While firefighters had it under control quickly, they spent several hours at the scene dousing hot spots and working to keep the stubborn fire from flaring back up again. Dyck said the fire is believed to have started at a conveyor belt that moves materials from inside a building to the outside of the building.

Construction begins on Warman, Martensville highway overpasses By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Construction work on the $60.6 million Warman Martensville Interchanges Project is underway. Excavation and earth-moving operations began on the Highway 11 overpass near Warman and the Highway 12 overpass at Martensville on Friday, March 21. Both interchanges are being constructed concurrently as a single “design-build” project under the management of Peter Kiewit Infrastructure Co in partnership with the provincial Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure. Other project partners include ISL Engineering and Land Services, Collings Johnston Inc, McElhanney Engineer Services and Clifton Associates Ltd. According to the project website (www.wminterchanges.ca), Kiewit’s focus for April operations include: * topsoil stripping and stockpiling; * structural excavation for the centre bridge pier foundation; * piling at bridge structure; * SaskPower utility relocations; * installation of Martensville Stage 1 Detour signage. The company says temporary traffic management measures will be imple-

mented at the Martensville portion of the project beginning on Wednesday, April 5. At that time, a portion of Range Road 384 between Highway 12 and the western limit of the project will be closed to traffic and a detour put in place. The Kiewet website notes the company’s aim is to “minimize the construction impacts on daily activities in the community. However, as with most infrastructure projects, there will be temporary detours, lane restrictions or other traffic changes. “Any changes to traffic patterns will be clearly indicated with on-site signage.” Information will also be posted regularly on the wminterchanges.ca website. The Highway 11 interchange portion of the project includes: construction of approximately five kilometers of new four-lane divided roadway for Highway 11; construction of a new two-lane overpass for Highway 305 and associated on and off ramps; construction of approximately two kilometers of a new two-lane roadway to connect Highway 305, Range Road 3044, and Ferry Road; safety upgrades to the rail crossing on Highway 305; and safety upgrades to the intersec-

tion of Highway 11 and Ferry Road/Central Street. The Highway 12 portion of the project includes: construction of about four kilometers of new four-lane divided roadway for Highway 12; construction of a new two-lane overpass for Township Road 384 and associated on and off ramps; reconfiguration of the Centennial Drive and Main Street intersection; and construction of a new Highway 12 exit ramp and signalized intersection at Centennial Drive and 4th Street. The interchange project is jointly funded by the provincial and federal governments.

Vipers claim silver at westerns

By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca The Sask Valley Vipers played outstanding in the 2017 Western Canada Bantam AAA Hockey Championship, earning a silver medal in the process. The Vipers entered the tournament as underdogs since they earned a spot being the host team and coach Shaun Priel said they exceeded expectations. “I’m so proud of the kids, I’ve told them many times this is one of the best group of kids I’ve ever worked with and when you get a good group of kids ... it makes it even more enjoyable. You come out of the season with a silver medal from the Western Bantam Championships, it doesn’t happen often for teams in Saskatchewan and for the kids to do that, good on them,” Priel said. Along with a host team, the tournament featured the best Bantam AAA teams from the four western provinces which included the Burnaby Winter Club (BWC), Fort Saskatchewan Rangers, Swift Current Kabos Broncos and Winnipeg Monarchs, as all the games were played at the Legends Centre in Warman on March 30 to April 2. It was a packed arena for the gold medal game on Sunday, April 2 as fans came out to support the host team. However, BWC defeated the Vipers 9-2, leading from start to finish. “They (BWC) came out flying and they were on their toes the whole time and they pushed us hard in the first period,” Priel said. Both teams started the game with tons of energy but after that first goal from BWC, Priel noticed that the Vipers sat back on their heels a little bit and were starting to make some mistakes. “When you start doing that against a good team, it’s tough to keep yourselves in a spot where your able to stay competitive throughout the game. Against a team like this when break downs happen, pucks go into the net and that’s what took place in the first period,” Priel said. After Burnaby scored two early goals in the middle frame, the Vipers started to push back which resulted in a goal scored by Ryan Conlon. But the momentum didn’t last long for Sask Valley and BWC responded with two quick goals and led 7-1 going into the final period. Jaxon Martens netted one for the Vipers in the third period but Burnaby never let up and scored twice throughout the frame to go onto win the championship trophy. BWC attained a spot in the gold medal game by going undefeated in the round-robin round, however, Burnaby was also outshot in every game, which give the perception they were going to play that defensive

I don’t know how many times their names are on that trophy but it’s (on there) quite a few (times).” Even though the game didn’t end the way the Vipers wanted it to, it’s still quite the feat to earn silver at a top calibre tournament like this one. After the medal ceremony. the team celebrated as they played well throughout the tournament. “When you get here (the gold medal game) and you don’t succeed on the scoreboard you go away feeling a little bit disappointed. But I think ultimately ... they’re starting to recognize what they truly accomplished,” Priel said. Priel was impressed with the effort the team played with throughout the tournament as Sask Valley’s other games were very close and the Vipers finished with a 2-1-1 record in the round robin round.

“You’re playing the best teams in western Canada so if you don’t come out and compete hard, you’re’ going to be in tough, and they did (compete hard), they played very well.” The Fort Saskatchewan Rangers and the Swift Current Broncos opened up the round-robin portion of the tournament on Thursday, March 30, as the Rangers defeated the Broncos 5-0. In the next game, BWC defeated Winnipeg 2-0 and the Vipers earned a 5-3 victory over the Rangers in the final game of the day. The round-robin continued on Friday, March 1 as BWC defeated Sask Valley 4-2 in the first game of the day. Winnipeg earned its first win of the tournament by beating Swift Current 5-3 and BWC won 5-2 against Fort Saskatchewan.

Bantam westerns a success By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca Warman and Martensville were the host cites for the 2017 Western Canada Bantam AAA Hockey Championship and overall the event went well, according to the host committee co-chair Mark Campbell. The host team, Sask Valley Vipers performed great throughout the tournament and that was a big factor in the success of the overall tournament as well. “When you have the host team with success it allows more and more people to gain interest, Campbell said. “It just helped our attendance overall because when you have an arena that’s full

for a gold medal game on a Sunday it’s a great showcase. The video cameras area rolling, the TV footage is rolling and you see a full house supporting your host team but also supporting an out of town team, cheering both teams on, it’s a ... great atmosphere.” A driving force of making sure an event like this runs smoothly are the volunteers as Campbell was appreciative with all the hard work they put in to make this four-day event a success. “The volunteers that we had working on this event were dedicated. They put in a lot of hard work in getting things organized.” Campbell said.

He also emphasized the volunteers showed courtesy throughout the tournament, greeting spectators and opening the doors for them as they entered the rink “Just the courtesy of our volunteers shows through in our region that volunteers make a great event.” Campbell said. Also with both cities being hockey communities and are passionate about the sport, Campbell said people were willing to help with making this an enjoyable experience for everyone to enjoy. “I think the fact that we do have a large base of hockey fans and hockey volunteers, they’re willing to put

their own players. And that just shows the hockey family is a great family to be a part of, even when they’re in competition, they’re still family,” Campbell said. Overall Campbell thought the event was enjoyed by everyone who were involved with it. “I thoroughly enjoyed it and as part of the host committee, lots of hours were put in but at the end of the day we hope that the teams enjoyed themselves, we hoped the parents enjoyed themselves along with the coaching staffs,” he said.

“The fact we have a new Days Inn in Warman and a new Canalta in Martensville allowed us to win a bid like this to be able to accommodate the teams,” Campbell said. During the tournament, 10 first year peewee players from of the host cites’ minor hockey associations were honourary captains. There were two youth assigned to each team and throughout the tournament they became a part of the clubs they were assigned to. “They (the five teams) took care of those honourary captains like they were

in the work to showcase their region. And although it’s a hockey tournament it does also showcase our cities and allows everyone to put their best foot forward and pull out the red carpet for visiting provinces to see what we have for services and amenities in our cities,” Campbell said. Not only did this tournament bring enjoyment to hockey enthusiasts it benefitted both the cities of Warman and Martensville economically as there were a considerable amount of people living in the community for four days.

Hague to ice another senior hockey team

By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca After a successful recent meeting, the proposal of starting a new senior hockey team in Hague is now going to happen as they are hoping to join the Twin Rivers Hockey League (TRHL) next season. “We had 36 potential players sign up that are willing to play. We don’t have coaches and managers in place yet, but hopefully that will come,” said Hague resident Lyle Funk. “The application has been sent to Twin Rivers to get into the league and we’re hopeful that they’ll accept us and we’ll start playing next season.” The main reason for starting a new senior team is to give a chance to more of the local players to play at the senior level after they’re finished playing minor hockey. “There are a lot of local boys that are graduated out the midget program ... just recently and some 3 to 5 years ago and they have no where to play, so we’re trying to give them a chance and a place to play,” Funk said. Hague already has a senior hockey team playing in the Fort Carlton League, but the TRHL presents more of an opportunity for the local players to play hockey. Funk also mentioned that there were 60 people overall at the meeting so there is support from the community to get this hockey team started. “I’ve had several people from around town that are not necessarily involved in hockey right now, but have been in the past. And they’ve been very encouraging to me and others trying to get this going and they’re telling us that they they’ll do everything they can to support us,” Funk said. There is no executive board for the team yet, hoever Funk said that’s the next step and it’s going to be quite the process to get this team organized for the fall. “We want to get a committee together to be the board ... and we’ll have five or six people on the board so we can all share the responsibilities and help each other out,” Funk said. Even though there is another senior hockey team in town, Funk said that people are excited to see more local kids playing had he thinks fans will come and watch the games. Funk is hoping that once this team is official and ready to play, he wants it to be around for a long time. “We’re just focusing on getting started and getting a good support base and building this, so that hopefully it’s running in 15 or 20 years ... down the road.

Warman coach leads ringette team to gold

By HILARY KLASSEN hklassen@ccgazette.ca For Melissa Hart, having her ringette team capture gold at the Western Canadian Ringette Championships was “amazing!” Teammembers, Jenna Yanz from Warman and Madison Ryan from Martensville, helped the team clinch the gold at the Winnipeg event, March 22-25. Hart lives in Warman and started playing ringette at around five or six. She’s been coaching for about 16 years (about half of that U19) and has seen the sport grow in both Warman and Martensville in recent years. “It has grown immensely! The two MartensvilleWarman players on U19 Team SK have had to play for a Saskatoon team since they started ringette when they were young. Now, young players (U9) who are interested in playing ringette can play on a Warman team up until they get a little older and more competitive.” Hart says the 17 athletes worked hard, not just this year, but in previous years. She’s been coaching this core group for two to three years. Last year’s experiences provided strong motivation.

PHOTO COURTESY OF MELISSA HART

Warman’s Melissa Hart coached her Saskatoon ringette team to win the Western Canadian Ringette Championships The team won two silver medals in the two Alberta tournaments they entered last year, but then lost in the provincial gold final. “At that point we decided as a team that the 2016/2017 season was going to be different,” Hart said. “We wanted to win Provincials and push for a Westerns gold.” The

current season proved to be more successful than they imagined. “We won gold in both Alberta tournaments (we were the first U19 SK team to ever win gold at the Calgary Esso Golden Ring tournament since it started in 1987), won Provincials in two games of a best of three game series,

and then went undefeated in Westerns to win gold.” The games were competitive, but the team was very focused on their goal, Hart said. Their drive and determination to succeed pushed them to the top. “Madison was also team captain, placed Top-5 in scoring at Westerns, and was one of

only five skaters in the entire U19 age group named to the all-star team at Westerns.” Hart expects experiences like what Yanz and Ryan have had through playing ringette will help grow the sport even further as more people learn about it and see the opportunities.

Bruins fall short in Senior C provincial final By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca The Delisle Bruins fell short in Game 3 of the SHA Senior C provincial final, dropping a 5-2 decision to the Raymore Rockets on Friday, March 31, in Delisle. It was a packed arena as fans came out to cheer on their respective team, and the Rockets earned the early edge in the contest, scoring the game’s first goal in the opening period. Both teams were physical throughout the frame, resulting in numerous of penalties as each team was on the man advantage more

than once. Raymore led 2-0 after 20 minutes despite being outshot 8-5. The Bruins began the middle frame on the power play but couldn’t capitalize, despite spending a lot of time in Rockets’ offensive zone. Shortly after that Delisle power play, Raymore netted one and led 3-0. The Rockets again were in the penalty box and the Bruins generated some momentum. After the Raymore goalie gave up a big rebound, Delisle capitalized and scored, however they trailed 3-1. Throughout the rest of the

period both teams had some penalty troubles but the score remained the same going into the final frame. Delisle again started the period on the power play but came up short and the Raymore defence stepped up big to preserve its lead. The Bruins ended pulling within one goal as a comeback was within reach. However the Rockets scored two more times in the period to go onto win the game. Delisle actually won the first game of this best-ofthree series but Raymore won the final two games to become the Senior C provincial champions.

Golf season is fast approaching By MACKENZIE HIENTZ mackenzie@ccgazette.ca With spring just around the corner that means golf season is about to begin. The driving range at the Legends Golf Club has been in operation since Friday, March 31 and the golf course itself is set to open on Friday, April 14 barring any setbacks. “Generally we start opening the golf course on April 14. We’re hoping to have it open a little bit sooner but I mean obviously that’s weather dependent, but definitely by April 14 we’ll be ready to go,” Legends Golf Club GM and head profes-

sional Craig Prentice said. Since the driving range has been open, Prentice said it‘s been busy as people are excited for the upcoming season. The driving range is open from 10 a.m. to dusk. “With the nice weather, everyone’s really geared up and ready to go and it’s been great. As long as the weather’s half decent people want get out there and start swinging,” Prentice said. The golf course is in great condition. Prentice said its dry and there isn’t many wet spots and the staff is working hard on making sure it’s top notch when it opens for the spring.

“Our new superintendent Matt Choquette has been working diligently on making sure the golf course is up to snuff and we’re excited to pull the tarps off here (soon) and see how those greens turned out over the winter,” Prentice said. He also mentioned since it was a mild winter this year that presented the opportunity for the staff to get on the course early and start preparing for the upcoming

season. A new event at the golf club this season is the InterClub Provincial Championship as it is the first of its kind in the province. “Clubs from around the province are invited to field a team of four and August 19 will be the day we play that. So we can expect to have around 80 to 100 players come and participate in that,” Prentice said. Also new at the golf club

this season is the lifetime membership. “It’s an initiative that our board of directors brought on and it’s essentially a way for us to build some capital funding,” Prentice said. As a lifetime member a golfer has access to unlimited golf, along with a cart and other amenities the club offers. The price for that membership is pretty hefty as it ranges from $20,000 to

$50,000 dollars and age does play a factor in that price range. “Obviously, it’s not for everyone but it’s definitely something for someone in that right position and really loves golf,” Prentice said. Overall Prentice is excited for the golf season. “We’re geared up ready to go, it’s very exciting and ... this is the time of year when everyone really gets golf on the mind,” he said.

GoFundMe campaign Draggins car show helps Bergen family an Easter tradition

The sudden passing of a young Warman resident on March 10 left her family with broken hearts. Krista Ducherer believed she had caught the flu and made an appointment to see her physician, according to information on a Go Fund Me page. She woke her husband, Terry, who works nights, to take her to her appointment. While Terry was helping her get dressed, she collapsed in his arms. He couldn’t find a pulse and she wasn’t breathing. Terry began CPR while waiting for the ambulance and paramedics to arrive. A friend started a GoFundMe campaign to raise needed financial support for Krista’s family during this difficult time. Krista would have turned 37 in April. Besides her husband, she leaves behind two young children. She and her children were part of the Gazette carrier team. Over $2500 was raised in one day in support of the Ducherer and Bergen families. The fund sought $5,000,

Rosthern snowbirds returning home By KARIN SCHMIDT karins@sasktel.net A big welcome back to our “winter snowbirds” who have spent part of the winter months away in sunny, warmer climates, although I hear some places had rainy times and cooler temperatures than some of the past years. Condolences to Ken and Pat Weightman and family on the passing of Ken’s sister, Verna King, age 96 years. She passed away on March 27 at Lakeview Pioneer Lodge in Wakaw. A private burial of her ashes will take place at a later date, in Woodlawn Cemetary in Saskatoon. Sympathy to family of Esther Wagner, age 97 years, of Saskatoon, formerly of Hague, who passed away March 25. She was predeased by husband George C. Wagner. Her funeral service was held Friday March 31 at Trinity Lutheran Church in Rosthern, with interment at Hague (old) Cemetary. On Wednesday, March 29, Trinity Lutheran Band entertained at the Senior Centre, with 60-70 people from Rosthern and surrounding area who came to listen to the musical instruments and singers. Following the performance, goodies, tea and coffee were served to those who stayed to enjoy visiting with others. On Saturday, April 1 a brunch fundraiser was held for the Zerebeski family at St. Odilons Church “Hall”, with many people attending to help out the family. There were many articles donated by generous people, which many put in their bids for the items they liked!

A GoFund Me campaign has been launched to help the Bergen family and as of March 31, it had reached its goal. Anyone still wishing to help can find the campaign by searching under Krista’s name on the GoFundMe website. “We are all so devastated she did not come back to us. We thank you for all support and prayers for Terry, Keaton (16) Aiden (10) and Danica (7), the Ducherer Family and the Bergen Family.”

The Draggins’ 57th annual Rod and Custom Car Show will be held Friday, April 14 and Saturday, April 15 at Prairieland Park with over 200 vehicles on display. Exhibitors from across western Canada will compete for over $10,000 in trophies and cash awards in a variety of classes including customs, hot rods, antiques, restorations, muscle cars, race cars, vintage motor cycles, custom trucks, and many more. Some outstanding entries include a full custom 1929 Plymouth four door touring sedan with a 1,200 HP turbo diesel; a replica Munster touring limousine built on a stretched 1927 Model T chassis; a custom full fendered Dearborn Deuce ‘32 Ford cabriolet painted Atomic Silver; a custom 1935 Chevrolet hot rod pick up with Pewter paint from Calgary; a custom 1950 Mercury lead sled

coupe painted matte black from Neepawa, MB; and an outstanding variety of incredibly detailed, modified and restored muscle cars. The Draggins are celebrating their 60th year as a club with a display in Hall A. The Saskatchewan Abilities Council and Camp Easter Seal will receive proceeds from the show and will be selling 50-50 tickets, raffle tickets for a jukebox and a 1955 Chevrolet replica pedal car; and souvenirs commemorating the 57th annual car show. Admission to the Car Show is $15 for people 16-64 years of age, $5 for six to 15 years of age (which includes a free Hot Wheels model car), and $10 for those 65 years of age and over.
