Singing away for Wadena van

By Becky Zimmer Editor The Sundrops will be taking the stage in Wadena on Aug. 26 to help raise money for the “Wheeler” Handi-Van. Connie Anderson with the organization says maintaining the 10-passenger van can be quite expensive, especially recently with some work being needed on the van.

The van is available for those people living

with mobility issues, including for people in wheelchairs or seniors who have little family in the area.

“For Handi-Van purposes, the definition of disabled is meant to include not only people with wheelchairs and walkers, but it is a broader term, including age, problems with mobility, and those that are ambulatory but cannot drive or do not have a vehicle,” said the Town

While Anderson does not keep track of how many trips are done per year, the van goes out every day, she says, covering some distance.

Whether for medical trips or to go visit family, the van has made trips to Saskatoon, Regina, Kelvington, Yorkton, and Tisdale to fill the needs of their residents.

The Wadena Van also hires first year university students during the

SGEU one step closer to strike

By Becky Zimmer Editor The Saskatchewan Government Employees’ Union (SGEU) has come one step closer to public sector employees walking off the job.

Members voted across the province throughout July, to determine whether a strike mandate was necessary. The majority of members voted in favour.

“This mandate sends a strong, clear message to government that our members are serious about achieving a fair and reasonable collective agreement that protects their rights and improves their wages and benefits,” said Barry Nowoselsky, chair of the PS/GE Negotiating

Committee in the Aug. 1 press release.

“A mandate from the members to strike does not mean there will be immediate job action.

The negotiating committee is willing to return to the bargaining table as long as the employer is willing to negotiate,” he added.

Bargaining for the current collective agreement started in October of 2016, says Lori Bossaer of the SGEU Negotiation Committee, with a Memorandum of Agreement being presented to the union in February 2018.

“A vote on the Memorandum of Agreement took place in March and April of this year and members reject-

ed that offer. Bargaining resumed in May with an impasse reached in June.”

When members were asked their reason for rejecting the collective agreement, Bossaer says they wanted more in terms of wage increases and pension.

According to Bossaer, the government is unwilling to discuss changes to proposed wage and pension increases.

“Currently, our step right now is to focus all of our efforts on getting a fair deal that recognizes the importance of our members.”

The SGEU will need to negotiate essential service agreements with the Saskatchewan government before any job

“Meanwhile, we are hopeful that we can return to the bargaining table as soon as possible and continue to negotiate a fair contract.”

Discussions are ongoing regarding essential service agreements, says Bossaer, but both parties need to be willing to go back to the table to discuss the collective agreement as a whole.

The SGEU is willing to go back to the table at any time, she says.

The last thing the members want is to actually go out on strike.

NEWS SUMA brings councillors back to school

By Becky Zimmer Editor High school and university students may not be back in school yet but Saskatchewan municipal mayors and councillors were back in class for the Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association (SUMA) Summer School.

Thirty communities were represented at the summer school, including St. Brieux, LeRoy, and Lanigan.

Mayors and councillors are often asking for help and guidance when it comes to procedure and dealing with municipal issues, says Gordon Barnhart, president of the Saskatchewan organization.

As well as sharing solutions to common problems faced by many municipalities, the three-day school is also a way for councillors to network and take in workshops and speakers to educate them on different aspects of municipal politics.

The level of experience varies, he says, with some

people making the step from councillor to mayor, which does prepare the mayors for the new position. Often municipalities have councillors who have little to no knowledge of the system before becoming a councillor, says Barnhart, but ran and won on the basis of one issue that they cared about.

Council can be a rude awakening to the depth of issues that councillors have to deal with.

“They go into council with that one-point agenda and then all of the sudden they realize this is more complex than that.

There are budgets and expenses that exceed the amount of money coming in.”

Money is an issue for municipalities, says Barnhart, who is also a councillor in Saltcoats, Sask. Becoming councillor means finding creative solutions to problems such as replacing and maintaining infrastructure and learning about the resources that are available.

Everyone shares that

as a challenge, says Barnhart, from the largest Saskatchewan cities to the smallest of villages and rural municipalities.

“The only difference in the budgets between a village and a city is the number of zeros…we’ve really only got two sources of revenue; property taxes from our citizens and grants from the provincial government.”

Summer school allows councillors and mayors to share some of these solutions with other municipalities.

As a municipal councillor in LeRoy, Don Brown finds that he needs more training to speak with media. SUMA is providing that through their summer school, he says.

How councillors interact with office staff and handling complaints from the community were other aspects of the summer school that interested Brown.

All of these talks gave Brown a better idea on his role as a councillor as well as his role within the community, he says.

RM of Pleasantdale to benefit from gas tax fund

By Christopher Lee Reporter The Rural Municipality of Pleasantdale will be one of a number of a number of communities who will receive gas tax fund benefits.

The Government of Saskatchewan made the announcement on Aug. 10 after receiving the first of two installments of the Federal Gas Tax Fund (GTF) to the tune of $30.9 million. In total the province says they

expect to receive $61.9 million.

“Investing in modern, efficient public infrastructure is key to promoting economic growth, strengthening the middle class and developing healthy sustainable communities,” wrote the province in a press release.

The first installment of the funding will benefit a number of communities including Assiniboia, Strasbourg,

and Pleasantdale.

“The Government of Saskatchewan is proud to play a role in administering the federal Gas Tax Fund program, which invests in municipalities across our great province,” Government Relations Minister Warren Kaeding said in a press release.

Viscount News Sandra Reid Contributor The Viscount Annual Ball Tournament and Street Dance was held on Aug. 11.

The band playing at the dance was Aces Wyld and they provided us with amazing entertainment.

The Street Dance is a great fundraiser for the Viscount Recreation Board and this year we had a great turn out raising approximately $8,300.00 with approximately 500 people attending the dance. This money will help with the annual operation of our Community Centre which is used by many different organizations in and around

our community.

The Viscount Recreation Board greatly appreciated everyone that came out to volunteer with this event and would like to thank everyone who came out to enjoy the day and evening with us.

We look forward to seeing you there next year!

Best wishes to anyone that is under the weather. Hope you feel better soon.

their communities and citizens.”

The GTF is a longterm, indexed source of funding that supports local infrastructure projects across each province, each year.

Communities can invest in 18 different project categories, including highways, public transit, drinking water, sport, recreation, tourism, and culture among others.

The funds can be used immediately for priority

projects, or can be saved for later use or pooled with other communities for shared projects.

The RM of Pleasantdale is expected to use a portion of their funding to install culverts.

“Local governments know best what their communities need and the Government of Canada is proud to deliver stable, longterm funding that they count on to develop and maintain their public

infrastructure,” Minister of Infrastructure and Communities FrançoisPhilippe Champagne said in the release.

“By investing in our communities, the Government of Canada is promoting economic growth and environmental sustainability, strengthening the middle class and helping ensure all Canadians have access to the opportunities they need to succeed.”

OPINIONS Canada’s TV sports personalities; who do you like?

Choosing your favourite television sports personality is hardly a scientific matter. It’s like asking someone to pick their favourite colour or their favourite brand of vehicle. It comes down to personal preference. You like green? I think blue is better. You’re a GM guy?

I’ll take a Ford.

Same goes with TV sports personalities.

There are dozens to choose from, in a number of categories: Play-byplay; colour commentators; analysts; interviewers; program hosts; anchors. Some are smooth, some aren’t. Some are more professional than others. Some are truly annoying. Some are simply terrible.

I say toe-may-to, you say tom-att-o. I say left, you say right.

Four who cause me to change the channel: Kate Beirness of TSN tops this list, followed closely by Don Cherry.

Third and fourth are Bob Cole, who is no longer at the top of his game, and Buck Martinez, whose voice is … well, unique and grating.

One man’s opinion, but probably not yours.

City Renegade, on Jets’ utility player Marko Dano signing an $800,000 contract: “Nice gig. Sit in the press box, watch 82 hockey games, eat popcorn, collect 800 large. The least Dano could do for that kind of coin is file a game story and sidebar. On deadline. Also gain about 40 pounds and wear wrinkled clothes that don’t fit. Then he’d feel right at home with the rest of the boys on press row.”

• Comedy writer Jim Barach: “PGA Tour player Justin Thomas says he is inspired by

his grandparents. Which may explain why the average round on the PGA Tour now takes five and a half hours.”

• RJ Currie again: “ S e l f r i d g e s s t o re i n London announced early Christmas by opening a new Yule-themed shop Aug. 2. ‘You call that early Christmas?’ said Leafs fans. ‘We got John Tavares July 1st.’”

• Comedy writer Alex Kaseberg: “HBO’s ‘Hard Knocks’ featured the Cleveland Browns’ training camp. They held an intra-squad scrimmage and for the first time in NFL history, the Browns lost.”

• Bob Molinaro of pilotonline.com (Hampton, Va.), trying to look on the bright side of Johnny Manziel throwing four interceptions in his CFL debut: “That did give him an opportunity to make two tackles.”

Federal regulations could change face of farming The face of farming could see some rather dramatic changes in the years just ahead as new rules, regulations and realities begin to be imposed from above and felt at the farm level.

Recent farm publication headlines suggestsome dramatic changes could lie just ahead.

One of the first changes might not seem especially significant, but it is an example of the reasons farmers may see changes in what they are allowed to do on their farms.

Health Canada is proposing an end the use ofstrychnine to control ground squirrels and is seeking public input on the matter until Sept. 27.

The proposal stems from a regular review ofpesticides under the Pest Management Regulatory Agency.

Calvin Daniels Health Canada has said strychnine killsground squirrels, also commonly called gophers, in its consultation document. However, and not surprisingly, they also noted it also kills non-target species that might eat either the poison-treated grain used to attract gophers orscavengers that eat the dead rodents. That is bad news for all sorts of animals, hawks, owls, ravens, coyotes and per-

haps most significantly in creating a push for a ban, the endangered burrowing owl and swift fox.

There is clearly a demand from the broader general public to preserve biodiversity whenever possible, and the efforts to protect the burrowing owl and swift fox have been significant as the pair are basically the poster children for disappearing native Prairie and its natural inhabitants.

No farmer wants to see the owls, foxes or other animals killed either, but they do recognize a need to control the ground squirrel as it burrows and mounds are a danger to cattle and machinery, and strychnine has been a tool in that control.

But there are increased environmental concerns

at play now, and that may well mean a ban on strychnine in the not so distant future.

And, in terms of environmental concerns there has been significant media coverage over bee deaths and the loss of wild pollinators.

More than one accusing finger has beenpointed at the family of insecticides known as neonicotinoids as one of the culprits.

Well, over the next five years neonicotinoids will be phased out for Canadian use.

The pesticide, used in Western Canada mainly as a seed treatment, will be unavailable to farmers in some forms beginning in 2021.

The decision comes down from the federal Pest Management Regulatory Agency, a decision which follows an earlier

move by the European Union to eliminate it. In the U.S., regulators have gone the other direction, opening up its use in some cases.

This will again have an impact on how farmers do things in Western Canada as neonicotinoids are used to control a range of crop pests such as flea beetles in canola, and seed corn maggot, in peas, pea-leaf weevil and wireworms in wheat and other crops.

Certainly the area of crop protection products will be the one where environmental concern pressures will likely have their greatest effect.

But others factors will have an impact too.

Glyphosate is a widely used weed controlproduct which has come under major scrutiny in the last few years in terms of whether the

herbicide first brought to the market in 1974, causes cancer.

Recently a California jury found Monsanto liable in a lawsuit filed by a man who alleged the company’s glyphosatebased products, including the oft-farm used Roundup, caused his cancer and ordered the company to pay $289 million in damages. It is estimated the company faces more than 5,000 similar lawsuits across the United States.

While there will no doubt be appeals dragging on for years, the final result could again cause a major change in how farmers manage their crops.

Change is constant in all things, but farmers appear to be facing a number of major ones based on new looks at old products.

Importance of water cannot be overstated We all know that we need to drink water, but do you really know why we need it or how much?

Water is one of the essential elements of overall health. The basic foundations of health for all humans include: air, water, food and sunlight. Without these 4 elements we are unable to survive.

The human body is composed of approximately 65 per cent water. It’s one of the core elements to our makeup both by volume and weight. It’s in every cell; all of our muscles and

Megan Parker tissues, our blood, our bones. Essentially every part of our bodies is made up of water.

Because water is one of the basic building blocks making up a large component of our bodies, without adequate

hydration we cannot f u n c t i o n o p t i m a l l y.

Water is required for every reaction that occurs throughout the day.

Chronic dehydration or inadequate water intake can essentially impact any and all health concerns. Common signs and symptoms of inadequate hydration include fatigue, skin concerns, digestive disorders including constipation, high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol, headaches, asthma and allergies, joint discomfort, weight gain and even premature aging.

Often if we aren’t sup-

What does workplace bullying say to students?

By Becky Zimmer Editor As students prepare to go back to school and university, we need to talk about bullying.

We are doing much for kids to counter bullying in the schools, and while I know we can be doing more, what are we doing for these kids, and ourselves, to combat bullying in the workplace or in everyday life as adults?

All bullying is wrong, and, according to the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS), it is fairly easy to distinguish other workplace and out of office issues.

Bullying and harassing behaviour does not include, “Expressing differences of opinion; Offering constructive feedback, guidance, or advice about work-related behaviour; Reasonable action taken by an employer or supervisor relating to the management and direction of workers or the place of employment.”

What it does include is a whole host of other NEW LISTING 14 Thompson Dr, Humboldt $269,900.00

examples, including, “spreading malicious rumours, gossip, or innuendo; excluding or isolating someone socially; intimidating a person; undermining or deliberately impeding a person’s work; physically abusing or threatening abuse; removing areas of responsibilities without cause; constantly changing work guidelines,” and many others.

There is a long list of effects that bullying has on individuals and the list is similar whether it is kids or adults being bullied; things like loss of confidence, panic or anxiety, family tension or stress, frustration and helplessness, according to CCOHS. I am sure we have all felt that way one time or another, and at times I am sure we have been aggressors or survivors of bullying in our adult lives.

That is a reason in itself to be more empathetic to people.

I may not be a parent, but I have seen many parents stand up

NEW LISTING 322 – 7th St, Humboldt $299,900.00

for their children when they are bullied. I have also seen parents take a stand when their kids are the bullies.

Are we doing enough to make sure we check ourselves in our workplaces to ensure that we are not the bullies that haunt our kids in the school halls?

Do we feel we can more easily justify our anger towards another person because we are adults and we know better?

Can we use our children as an example to check ourselves when interacting with another adult?

I want adults to take the time to consider this: if what you are saying to another person is something you would not want directed at your own kids or something your kids says to another kid, is that not a good reason to not say it ourselves?

If want our kids to be safe from bullying, we need to check ourselves first to make sure we are not being bullies.

plying our body with water regularly to meet its demands, we won’t feel thirsty. If we don’t drink water regularly, our body will not ask for it. Increasing water consumption will increase our thirst response.

A rough estimate of how much water we need daily is to take your body weight in pounds and divide it by two. This will give us the number of ounces we should be drinking daily. Ex. 150 lb/2= 75 ounces daily. A glass of water contains 8 ounces so a 150 lb individual would need to drink

about 9-10 glasses daily.

This is a rough estimate and some people need a little more or a little less.

If you’re currently drinking 2-3 glasses of water daily and your goal should be about 10 glasses daily, start by increasing it slowly.

All liquids we put into our bodies need to be filtered by our kidneys so that would be a huge shock to our system and could actually cause negative consequences.

I usually recommend to increase by 1 glass per day each week. If you’re currently drinking 3 daily now, have 4 each

day for the next week and 5 daily the week following and so on.

I hope by now, you’re sipping on a glass of water while you finish reading. Take the first steps to improve your overall health and make sure you are getting enough water each day. Drink up!

By Christopher Lee Reporter Players’ weekend has been a new initiative started by Major League Baseball in recent years, and while I originally was indifferent, a recent circumstance changed my mind.

Players’ weekend is an opportunity for players to show a little more “personality” by putting their nickname on the back of their jersey.

When I first heard about players’ weekend I was not sure why they were doing it.

What I learned watching players’ weekend, at least for one player, is that it does not really matter.

Canadian Joey Votto proved that there is more to the weekend than selling jerseys.

The 34-year-old Toronto native elected to honour something distinctly Canadian, something near and dear to the hearts of Canadians.

When Votto pulled on his #19 Cincinnati Reds jersey during players’ weekend it did not say “Votto” on the back REDUCED 703 – 7th St, Humboldt $179,900.00

but instead read “In Flanders Fields.”

The ode to the World War I poem was a nice touch by Votto, especially with this year being the 100-year anniversary since the end of the war.

What better way to pay homage to those who served than with those simple words.

When I think of the war, that poem is one of the first things that comes to mind.

Growing up there used to be constants at Remembrance Day ceremonies; the Canadian anthem, the playing of the Last Post, and the reciting of In Flanders Fields.

What better way to honour the war than with those words.

Votto has proven in the past to be supportive of Canadians and their causes, like when he famously wrote the name of the Toronto police officer who played a key role in the arrest of the van attack offender on his cleats.

In April, shortly after the start of the sea-

REDUCED 1709 – 9th Ave, Humboldt $258,000.00

son, he wrote the words “Humboldt Broncos” on his cleats in honour of the team.

Seeing Votto write homages on his cleats and put “In Flanders Field” on the back of his jersey is awesome.

A lot of time we watch professional athletes on television and honestly because they make millions of dollars and we only ever see them playing their sport, we forget these are real people with real feelings.

Vo t t o s h o w c a s e d those with the name on his jersey, as well as the other homages.

While the 34-year-old is not perfect, there was an outburst earlier this season about Canadian baseball, which he later apologized for, he does show a side of humanity.

And that is awesome.

So while I did not know how to feel about players’ weekend at first, Votto changed my mind.

I look forward to seeing more jerseys like Votto’s in future years.

SPORTS Shorthanded Royals fall in semi-finals

By Christopher Lee Reporter The Marysburg Royals’ talented ball club ran into a tough Saskatoon Stallions club at the wrong time.

The Royals, who dominated the Saskatoon Senior Baseball League regular season standings, were upended in three games by the Stallions in their SSBL semi-final playoff series.

It was a tough way to lose for a Royals club that enjoyed such a solid regular season. Unfortunately, talent and time of year

left the club with just nine players for each of their three contests.

The Royals were without a number of key contributors for the playoff series including Adam Gerwing, Carter Frerichs, Brody Frerichs, and Thomas Lessmeister, who were all in St. Thomas, Ont. for the 2018 U21 Baseball Canada Cup. With just nine players, the Royals suffered a tough 9-7 loss to the Stallions on Aug. 14.

Luke Strueby was charged with the loss on

the mound for the Royals, pitching a complete game in just his second appearance on the mound this season.

With their season on the line, the Royals refused to go down without a fight, winning game two 8-4 on Aug. 15.

Playing their second game of the day and third in two games, the Royals ran out of steam in the third and decisive game as they suffered a 10-1 loss.

With the loss the Royals saw their season come to a close.

Local athletes compete at Westerns and nationals

By Christopher Lee Reporter A number of local track and field athletes have enjoyed a busy summer as they competed in the tri-provincial track and field championships in Sherwood Park, Alta., before a pair traveled east for the 2018 National Legion Track and Field

Championships in Brandon, Man. Jaedyn Rudichuk, Cara Dobrohoczki, Dayton Uchacz, Connor Tetzlaff, and Ryder Chicoine all competed in the tri-provincial meet in Sherwood Park July 13-14.

The quintet combined to collect three medals including two silver and

a bronze.

Rudichuk, a native of Wakaw, posted a pair of top five finishes in the U18 girls competition collecting second in the shot put and fifth in discus.

Joining Rudichuk on the second step of the podium was Uchacz, who posted a second place finish in the U16 4x100m

relay.

Rounding out the medal winners was Tetzlaff, who collected a bronze medal in the U18 high jump.

Thanks to their strong finishes both Rudichuk and Uchacz reached standard and earned a berth at the national championships.

While the pair failed to reach the podium in individual races, both enjoyed solid national championship appearances, with Rudichuk finishing 11th and 13th in discus and shot put respectively.

Uchacz collected an 18th place finish in the U16 boys 200m race, but for the second meet in a

row came home with a medal as he helped Team Saskatchewan to a bronze medal in the U16 Sprint Medley.

With the summer drawing to a close, the athletes will turn their attention back to high school athletics, which kick off at the beginning of September.

HUMBOLDT BRONCOS BUS CRASH

Truck driver court proceedings delayed Devan C. Tasa Editor T h e re h a s b e e n a d e l a y i n c o u r t p ro ceedings for the driver of the semi-truck that collided with the

H u m b o l d t B ro n c o s ’ team bus.

Jaskirat Singh Sidhu’s lawyer, Satnam Aujla, asked the judge on Aug. 21 if court could be adjourned

until Oct. 2 as there were some particulars he wanted to examine further. The crown persecutor agreed.

Neither Sidhu nor Aujla physically ap-

peared at the Melfort courthouse. Aujla addressed the judge over the phone.

Sidhu is charged with 16 counts of dangerous operation of a

motor vehicle causing death and 13 counts of dangerous operation of a motor vehicle causing bodily injury.

Sidhu is out on bail, with conditions that

include not operating a motor vehicle, staying within 100 kilometres of his Calgary home, observing a curfew and surrendering his passport.

Attendance woes shortens Bisons season

By Christopher Lee Reporter The Bruno Bisons have enjoyed a terrific run of success over the last decade plus, but the realities of senior baseball caught up with the club this season.

The Bisons closed the year with losses in nine straight games, thanks in large part to a difficulty finding enough players on any given night, says Bison J e re m y S i b l e y, w h o added players were just unable to commit to making every game, including himself.

“My wife and myself welcomed our second child so I didn’t make a whole lot of the games and that was kind of the case across the board

with our team… We played okay but when you have guys playing out of position because you only have nine guys at the field or whatever it may be it does make things tough.”

Wi t h a t t e n d a n c e strong at the beginning of the season, the Bisons got off to a solid start posting wins in their first four contests, and five of six.

After starting the year 5-1, the Bisons posted a 2-5 record in June to fall below .500.

Unfortunately for the Bisons, with attendance woes worsening, the club fell into a funk they could not snap out of as they lost nine straight falling from, at one time first, all the way

to ninth and no playoff appearance.

The club also elected not to attend provincials this year.

“We had thought that we would have been going down to Estevan or Carnduff and we just decided that we’d skip it this year and consider next year. I have no idea what the plans are for next year, if they intend on going again or not.”

Wi t h a t t e n d a n c e woes being an issue at times, the Bisons will be going through a bit of a transitional phase, with Sibley and a couple of the other original Bisons looking at hanging up the glove.

“There’s quite a few younger guys that are

coming up and they may just have to get some other guys on board just so that you do have 12, 13 guys showing up to the field on a nightly basis,” says Sibley.

Reflecting on his last 12 years or so with the Bisons, Sibley says he has loved every minute of it but says with commitments changing he just cannot continue.

“The team’s changed a lot throughout the years but for the most part the core has stuck together and I loved every season, even this one where we didn’t fare so well.”

With Sibley set to take a step back next season, he says he will really miss coming to the park with the other Bisons.

“The competition’s always good and I won’t be replacing that with anything except my attempt to pick up golfing a little bit more so the competition I’ll miss too but mainly just being at the field with the guys.”

Of course, the show must go on for the Bisons, and Sibley says he hopes and thinks the future of the team will remain bright.

“I have two other brothers who play on the team, I know the youngest one will continue playing and I hope that for the most part the core sticks together and continues to play but we’re probably going to have a wind up in a few weeks here and maybe discuss it a little more

but me and one or two of the other older guys will be stepping away.”

If the club does continue, Sibley says it will be important for those who stick around next season to get comfortable playing a variety of different positions.

“Over the last few years we’ve lost a lot of the middle part of our lineup and even middle infield, which is never good,” he said.

“Errors and walks basically kill you in this league so it’s getting guys who throw strikes and throw well and then getting a little bit better defensively and then if you don’t make errors and you don’t walk guys you’ve got a shot to win every game.”

An unreliable Internet connection is like being up a creek without a paddle.

Volleyball camp to return to Humboldt

By Christopher Lee Reporter September will soon be upon us. And so too will a new school year.

With that in mind the Humboldt Collegiate Mohawks senior girls volleyball team is hosting a volleyball camp Aug. 24-25 in hopes of giving volleyball players a head start on their 2018-2019 season.

The camp will be broken up into two groups and spread over two days with grades 7-9 students playing at Humboldt Public, and grades 10-12 at Humboldt Collegiate.

Having the camp broken up between each school is important, says camp contact Stacy Jackson because it gives players the full court, in-

stead of having to share a half court.

Camp will be four hours each day, with fun warm up drills and skills development planned and will include instruction from Lakeland College women’s volleyball head coach Austin Dyer, as well as other collegiate players.

Having Dyer, who has been coming for many years, come once again to run the camp is great, says Jackson because his skill development work with the kids is great.

“He knows how to get down to their level and help them out and then he brings some of his athletes with him and they also work with the students.”

Dyer is not only a ben-

efit to the players, but also the coaches, says Jackson because they are also able to learn from his work.

“You just kind of see the way that he runs a practice and how important the warm up is and how much attention he puts to certain skills and certain aspects of the game play. So it’s just really good to see somebody who’s that involved in the sport and that knowledgeable of the sport.”

Camp registration is open any time up to the beginning of camp and does not have a registration limit.

Registration is $110 each, and can be done on the day at the school where the player will be attending camp.

Broncos head to camp

By Christopher Lee Reporter With the calendar soon flipping to September, the beginning of another Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League season is right around the corner.

In preparation, the Humboldt Broncos will be welcoming approximately 70-80 players for their fall training camp, which runs Aug. 24-26 at the Elgar Petersen Arena.

The camp will be broken up into four teams, with each team hitting the ice for an Aug. 24 practice, two Aug. 25 scrimmages and another on Aug. 26.

In keeping with tradition, the Broncos will conclude camp with the Elgar Petersen Cup, which is set for 5:00 p.m. on Aug. 26.

Wi t h c a m p s e t t o open, and the Broncos looking to finish filling out their 2018-2019 roster, Broncos head coach Nathan Oystrick says he is looking for one thing from every player; compete.

“I can teach skill but I can’t teach compete.

I want the players to come in hungry. This is obviously a great opportunity for everyone because I’ve never seen any of them play. It’s a blank slate for them, it’s a blank slate for me,” he said.

“I’ll probably go talk to each team before each of their practices and my message will be compete, work, don’t lose a one-on-one battle. Do the little things to make

you stand out. Everyone can toe drag, everyone can shoot the puck, it’s the little things that are going to help you make this team.”

Despite the Broncos looking to fill a number of roster spots and this year ’s camp carrying a slightly different feel from previous years, Oystrick says his approach to the camp will not change, and given that he has not had a lot of experience with many of the players, he will be relying on his scouts to serve as extra sets of eyeballs.

While most players and coaches will not be familiar with each other, Oystrick says he hopes to use a little of the weekend to get to know one another but adds that the majority of the getting to know one another stage will happen once the roster has been cut down.

Oystrick says the goal is to have the roster sitting at 30 players by the end of the Elgar Petersen Cup game and says he plans on using the days following as important bonding time for the team.

“The following week after camp will be a good opportunity for me to sit down and talk with each player for ten minutes.

We’ll kind of set a timer, put a list on the wall and we’ll go right through it. Just a little bit about them, a little about me,” he said.

Oystrick does come into camp having spo-

ken to many if not all of the players who have joined the Broncos organization via signing or trade over the summer, and says they come in excited.

“As exhibition season wears down and we’ve had a good look at everyone then we can start talking about roles.

For right now it’s just keep focusing on doing what you’re doing. You got to this point because we like you or we saw something about you that we like so just keep doing it.”

Wi t h c a m p s e t t o kick off this weekend, Oystrick says he is excited to hit the ice.

“The past couple weeks have been a lot of logistical stuff and figuring things out on my end… so I’m definitely excited for hockey. I think we’ll have a good group of kids and I’ve talked to most of them or all of them and they’re all excited to be here,” he said.

“They know the opportunity that’s in front of them so for me it goes down to relationships and culture. The quicker we can get a good idea of who our team’s going to be the quicker we can start building those bonds and building that culture. Obviously in any hockey league the start of the year ’s important. It’s a lot harder to dig yourself out of a hole if you dig one at the start of the year so I think if we can get off to a good start then we can just keep building.”

Card of Thanks With Gratitude and Thanks We would like to offer our deepest gratitude for all who attended the funeral and Celebration of Life for Dan Mueller, on Thursday August 9 2018 at St. Augustine's church and hall.

Specifically, we would like to personally thank Father Joe for a thoughtful service, the Humboldt and Marysburg Choirs for lending their beautiful voices, soloists Maxine Koski and Fred Funk for sharing their immense talents.

The Ladies Auxiliary for serving the funeral luncheon, and Schueler-Lefebvre for their skillful organization, kindness and support.

We would especially like to thank all the staff and care providers at the Quill Plains Centennial Lodge, where Dan lived for the past few years. They went above and beyond to make him feel loved and valued, with a gentle touch, a keen sense of humour and compassion.

For those both near and far, thank you for enriching Dan's life and sharing your memories with us. We could not be more grateful for the thoughtfulness and generosity during this difficult time.

The entire Mueller family
