Cold weather not a problem for Lake Lenore derby By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

Lake Lenore was packed with ice fishers on Jan. 16 as the Lake Lenore Lions Club held their seventh annual ice fishing derby. Proceeds from the event go to various causes throughout the Lake Lenore community. This year, mother-nature tried her darnedest to keep people away with temperatures dropping below -40 with the wind chill. It was very cold out on the ice but the fishers didn’t stay away as the Lions saw 414 people register for the event. As a result, the club raised $17,550, keeping $8,775 for their community initiatives and paying out $8,775. Among the 414 registered were people from all over the province of Saskatchewan as well as Alberta. Bauer said one particular family came from Calgary. Bauer also noted how happy the club was with the turnout given the weather. “With the windchill this morning it was like 42 below so we are really happy with the turnout,” he said. There were 37 fish caught over the course of the four hour derby, including 23 walleye, 14 northern pike and 0 perch. There were prizes to be won in various categories including, top three biggest fish, smallest fish, largest walleye and largest perch. This year the biggest fish winner was Len Ramanda with a 5.98lb northern pike. His first prize winnings were $4,387.50. Second prize went to Corey Miller who caught a northern pike of his own weighing 3.44lbs. Miller

walked home with $2,193.75 for his catch. The third largest fish was also a northern pike caught by Troy Worley. His pike weighed 3.31lbs, which netted him a payout of $1,316.25. This year’s smallest fish or “minnow”, as Bauer joked, was caught by Brent Grant. Grant’s walleye weighed a measly 0.20lbs and netted him $877.50. Stillman Michel took home the $500 prize for the largest walleye after his 2.84lb catch. With nobody catching a perch, the prize for the largest perch caught turned into a draw. In order to be entered into the draw you must have caught a fish

and have it registered with the organizers. The draw included 37 people and the lucky winner was also the biggest fish winner, Ramanda, came away with an additional $250. There was also a 50/50 draw worth $3,387.50, which was won by Barry Engle. In addition, every single entrant, over the age of 18, was entered into a draw for a chance to roll a set of four dice. The dice contained the one letter of the word fish on one side of the dice. There were fifteen names drawn and each drawn name, in the order that their name was drawn, was allowed one roll. If your roll spelled the word fish you won $10,000. There was no lucky winner of this contest. There were also draws held for various items donated to the event. The prizes could be won by any of the entrants regardless of age. Some of the prizes included, a smoker, a tow rope, a fishing package, a gift card for Cabela’s, a shop vac and a fish finder among others. Overall, Bauer said that the event was a success and wanted to thank the sponsors and volunteers for all their help and support. “Without them we couldn’t put this on,” he said. Lions Club member Beryl Bauer noted that the money will be held onto and as a community need arises they will make a donation to that need. In past years the Lions Club have made donations to things like the skating rink, the community hall, the Lioness playground, the Lenore Lake boat launch and the Lenore Lake beach before it flooded. The Lions also donate to Lions Club causes including Lions Journey for Sight.

Cultural diversity one of many 2016 goals for Horizon By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor Horizon School Division has a lot to look forward to for 2016, says Director of Education Kevin Garinger. The division is celebrating its 10th anniversary this school year after being reshaped in 2005. Garinger says this is a year to look forward to the future and celebrate the past. With two straight years of growth and an increase in culturally diverse students, Garinger says the school division is now focused on a culturally responsive model to support first nations and other cultures within the school division. The division has hired a First Nations educational liaison who is out in the division supporting teachers and students and focusing on First Nations education. “He is a First Nations individual and educator and does a tremendous

amount of work in our system that way.” Says Garinger. Raymore school is already part of the Following Their Voices program partnering with First Nation and Metis groups on education issues. “It’s really a strong engagement with staff in changing their ways of being able to meet the needs of kids and really looking at it through a culturally responsive lens.” Part of that work has been partnering with the Human Rights Commission to connect their work with this cultural response, says Garinger. “We actually now have a masters teacher who is a support agent to continue to make connections between our social studies curriculum, the human rights commission work and our work in relation to our culture responsiveness module to tie it together.” The 2nd annual Holocaust Sympo-

sium is a component of this partnership and will take place April 19. Within Horizon, Garinger will also be looking to include other language components into schools with a majority of First Nations students. This will help the school division connect to the different First Nations communities in the Horizon division. This is all really exciting work, the most of which was introduced in September, says Garinger, and will be continued into 2016. Another part of this cultural response is managing the effects of language barriers on literacy. With an increase in students who have a different first language than English, Garinger says that literacy issues can have a different look. “One of the focuses that we have around literacy is to make sure we know that when there is a literacy issue, it could be a language issue.”

Would the problem persist if they were reading their own language? That is one of the questions that teachers should be asking, says Garinger, and how can they support them to better understand English. “We see significant growth in our children once the language develops.” Horizon has also introduced assessment strategies that goes beyond what was previously set up. All schools in Horizon have assessment up to grade 8. Once the child is passed that point, they are out of the testing range. Students at some Horizon schools will now be assessed on proficiency from grade 9-11. “Now we’ll know if a student has a comprehension level at 11 or not. If not what are we doing to support that.” Continued on page 3

Cultural diversity one of many 2016 goals for Horizon Continued from page 2 With a number of projects focused on upgrades to Horizon’s technology, Garinger says it’s an expensive time but an important upgrade for students, teachers and staff that Horizon Board of Education is very supportive of.

Some of the previous technology in Horizon schools were as old as 10 years. This complete new infrastructure is being rolled out to all the schools in the division right now. Another technological revamp that the division is working on is a new website.

The current site is on an old platform and Garinger says it is time for an update. All the schools, as well as the division office, will have a new site out of the Scholastic company. Other important things the Horizon School Division is looking forward to this year include a brand new building. Currently, part of the

Horizon office shares a building with the Olymel Humboldt main office and space is rather tight, says Garinger. “We’re looking for options in respect to building a new facility to house this division office and one that all our stakeholders can be proud of.�

Horizon Basketball weekly wrapup By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter High school basketball continued in the Horizon School Division this week as teams began the push for the playoffs. Junior Girls The junior girls had seven games this week with only one game decided by fewer than ten points and only two games decided by more than 20. Middle Lake and Lake Lenore tipped off in Lake Lenore with first place in the northwest “A� division on the line. Middle Lake used their division leading point differential to their advantage to beat Lake Lenore 32-20. Winless St. Brieux “A� hosted Humboldt with an eye on keeping pace with both Middle Lake and Lake Lenore for first place in the division. St. Brieux got their much-needed win, at home, scoring a 36-22 win pulling them into a tie with Lake Lenore and sitting a single victory back of Middle Lake for first place. In the northwest “B� division, leaders St. Dominic hosted St. Brieux “B� looking to keep their perfect regular season alive. This was the weeks only single digit score differential involving the junior girls as St. Dominic kept their streak alive, winning 44-36. After a few of their games were rescheduled for later in the season, Humboldt Public was finally able to get their season started when they traveled to Annaheim. The season got off to the right start for Humboldt as they emerged victorious 58-26. In the weeks biggest blowout Wakaw beat visiting Cudworth 88-7 as Cudworth was also just

getting their regular season underway. In the southwest division, Strasbourg, another team just starting their regular season, traveled to Imperial and handed the Cougars their first loss of the season 39-16. The final game of the week for the junior girls featured undefeated Foam Lake traveling to take on winless Wadena. Foam Lake kept their undefeated regular season alive while also keeping Wadena winless after a 51-35 win. Senior Girls The schedules provided to the Journal showed no senior girls basketball games this week. Play resumes next week with a pair games in Middle Lake and Lake Lenore. Junior Boys The junior boys were once busy again this week with seven games spread across four days. There were a lot of blowouts this week with only one game decided by fewer than 12 points and five games decided by more than 28 points. The week’s largest margin of victory came as Wynyard Composite beating their little brothers from Wynyard Elementary 54-13. Lake Lenore traveled to Annaheim and scored a larger margin of victory (38) than Annaheim had points (30) during their 68-30 win. In Humboldt, a pair of Humboldt teams faced off at St. Augustine as the home team limited visiting St. Dominic to 14 points during their 45-14 win. Humboldt Public traveled to Viscount and emerged with a 35-6 win giving them a commanding lead in the league standing thanks to a pair of

four point games over the past two weeks. Last week’s win against Cudworth and this week’s win each gave them four points towards the league standings giving them ten points in four games. The final team to win by more than 28 points this week was Lanigan who beat visiting Watrous 64-35. Imperial and Strasbourg battled it out at Imperial school with both teams looking for their first win of the season. Strasbourg emerged victorious with a 42-29 win, pushing their record to 1-1. With the loss Imperial’s record drops to 0-3. The week’s closest game in the junior boys division was also it’s highest scoring as the teams combined for 109 points during St. Brieux’s narrow 55-54 win over the hosts from Middle Lake. Senior Boys The senior boys were the quietest of the three organized leagues this week with only five games being played. A pair of 2-0 teams met in Lake Lenore as Humboldt came to town. With both teams looking to remain undefeated and in first place in the north division it was Humboldt who pulled out the win as they used their division best offense to pull away from Lake Lenore during an 83-41 win. In the divisions other game it was a pair of 0-2 teams facing off looking for their first win. St. Brieux used a powerful offense and a stout defense to earn their first victory of the season, a 92-28 win in Watson. In the south division, the leaders from Watrous hosted Lanigan with first place on the line. A win for Lanigan would put them in a tie with Watrous but Lanigan would hold the tiebreaker due to the head to head victory. It wasn’t meant to be for Lanigan as they dropped a 76-42 decision. Punnichy was the busiest team this week with games on back-to-back days. On Jan. 12 they hosted Kawacatoose (AKEC) and on the Jan. 13 they traveled to Viscount. They finished their week with a 1-1 record as they dropped their home match up against AKEC 45-24 and won their road game against Viscount 53-23. With team’s having an average of three games remaining in their season each remaining game carries added importance as playoffs approach.

Winter no reason to hibernate By Dr. Megan Parker, ND Health Columnist

This last week it has become evident in the area that winter is truly here. Temperatures drop, snow covers the ground, and you can see your breath crystalizing in front of your face. As the mercury drops in the thermometer, it gets harder and harder to motivate yourself to get outdoors. Many people wish they could act like a grizzly and hibernate through the winter. This “hibernation� often means activity levels drop and unhealthy food choices increase. But didn’t most of us set New Year’s resolutions to be more healthy and active in 2016? This could be a problem. We all know the importance of staying active throughout the year, regardless of the weather. Physical activity is essential to overall health. It helps with weight maintenance or weight loss, energy production, mood, sleep, immune system health and so much more. When it’s too frosty outside to get

your sweat on, consider switching up your location. It’s always a good idea to switch up your exercise routine so maybe this winter means a time for you to try something new. Maybe you’ve always wanted to try a yoga or Zumba class. Or you’re looking for group motivation and boot camp is more your style. These fitness classes usually take place in heated buildings so it doesn’t matter how cold it is outside, you can still get the benefits of a workout. If you are more of a team person, try picking up an indoor court sport like basketball or volleyball. Another great option to stay active during the winter months is to purchase a gym membership. Gyms and fitness centres are full of different equipment so there is bound to be something for everyone. You can continue training for those marathons and bike races on indoor equipment or tackle the free weight area to tone your muscles. Most people complain during the

winter about how cold it is outside, but as residents of Saskatchewan, should we not be expecting plummeting temperatures? It’s all a matter of mindset. If you’re anything like me and have lived in SK for more than a season, you likely have more than enough winter wear to keep you warm, including ski-pants, toques, mitts, scarves, and boots. Dress in layers appropriate for the day and once you start moving your body you’ll be feeling warm in no time. If winter makes you bummed that you can no longer do your favourite outdoor activities like golf or baseball, think of all the great winter sports that we can only enjoy this time of year. Lace up your skates and enjoy a game of shinny or just go for a fun skate on your local outdoor pond. Try sweeping a 40 pound rock down a sheet of ice in a curling match and you’ll soon be getting your sweat on. Other great outdoor activities that have a short lived winter season in-

clude cross-country skiing or snowshoeing. After the next big snowfall, grab the kids (or just the adults) and some crazy carpets or sleds. Sliding down the neighbourhood hill is a great time and walking up it after is excellent exercise. Gear up and get outdoors. Although the days are shorter and darker and the weather is cooler, we don’t need to see winter as a reason to stop all physical activity. It’s just a time to re-evaluate our current routines and find ways to make changes that fit with our goals. Personally, I love winter because I get to do different and fun activities that can only be enjoyed in the snow. What new exercise routine or activity will you try this winter?

Ovechkin pulls ahead in Crosby battle By bruce penton Sports Columnist It didn’t make the ‘Obits’ page in The Hockey News, but the Sidney Crosby-Alex Ovechkin rivalry is dead. The two superstars broke into the NHL in 2005-06 and Ovechkin, almost two years older, racked up four more points (106 to 102) than the 18-year-old Sid the Kid from Nova Scotia, and won the Calder Trophy as rookie of the year. They have been linked ever since and while both starred for 10 years, Crosby won a Stanley Cup while Ovechkin’s chance for Cup glory finally ap-

pears on the horizon this season. So who is better? Who was better? Who will go down in hockey’s history books as the better player? Those questions need more time. Winnipeg fans a few years ago thought they knew — at least they had a 15,000-voice chant directed at Ovechkin one night at the MTS Centre that thundered down: “CROS-by’s BET-ter!� in a singsong voice that served only to annoy, not to anoint. Now both in their 11th seasons, Crosby and Ovechkin seem to be heading in different

directions. Ovi’s Capitals are the class of the NHL, with only eight losses and, at last glance, a 12-point lead over their nearest rival in the Eastern Conference. Ovechkin recently scored his 500th career goal (185 more than Crosby has scored) and will challenge again for the Hart Trophy as the league’s MVP (he’s already won three Harts). Crosby, meanwhile, has been the face of Canadian hockey since he entered the league in 2005. He had 102 points that season, led the Penguins to a Stanley Cup in 2008-09 and joined Paul Henderson atop the ped-

estal of Canadian hockey heroes by scoring the ‘golden goal’ in overtime as Canada prevailed over the U.S. at the Olympics in 2010. He has two scoring titles and two MVPs to his credit. But this season has been a grind. Crosby’s stats are ordinary, at best. He’s averaging less than a point a game (his career mark is around 1.3), the Penguins are under .500 and while enforcer and zero-goal scorer John Scott of Arizona (now Montreal) was named a captain for the NHL allstar game, the great Sidney Crosby didn’t even rate an invitation. Jets’ fans can start practising their new song: “O-vi’s BET-ter!â€? But as Meatloaf famously sang: “Ain’t no doubt about it, we were doubly blessed ‌â€? by two of the greatest hockey players we’ll ever see — going head to head for more than a decade. It was great while it lasted, but it’s over. Looks like Ovi has won. • Brad Dickson of the Omaha World-Herald: “Tampa Bay Buccaneers fired coach Lovie Smith by phone.

Plunkett news

By Deloris Sutherland Correspondent Several folks are enjoying skiing and snowmobiling, some are away on holidays and the rest of us are just keeping warm, while enjoying curling and sports on T.V. We really enjoyed watching the curling in Banff, Alberta. Dennis & Leona Credgeur spent Jan. 2 in North Battleford and met up with their daughter Tanis & her husband Rod Crawford and their family. They were there to help their granddaughter Densara celebrate her 6th birthday at the water slides there. It was nice seeing the Plunkett men on the cover of the trader on their snowmobiles. Several folks were away to Mexico for a while and have now returned home. Wendy Bishop had been to Vancouver recently to see her father Mr. Frank Bishop, who is now in a long term nursing home there. Sharon Dunbar was away to Lin-

den, Alberta for a couple weeks to spend Christmas with her parents Mr. & Mrs. Ens, and her family members. Stan & Irene Giddings spent a couple days in Saskatoon and met up with their folks at the airport who had arrived home from Mexico. For the curling fans, there should be curling on T.V. from Las Vegas this weekend. Visiting Mrs. Ellen Farago in Watrous recently was her family members from Moose Jaw and Regina. Recently, Jim Sutherland was visiting in Watrous and took his father out ice fishing with other family members. Taira Credgeur was on a television show called Say Yes to the Dress Canada. The show aired on Bell TV channel 567 on Wed. Jan. 13 at 9pm. Get well wishes go out to anyone ill and in the hospital. We wish them well and hope they get home soon.

Year in Review - October Fine Arts Day hits crescendo at Lake Lenore Lake Lenore students were immersed in the arts on Sept. 22, with instructors spending the day with students and teaching them different aspects of the arts. The fine arts curriculum at the school includes four strands: drama, visual art, music, and dance. Anne Visczko showed a video of what she does at the bakery in Saskatoon where she works and demonstrated cake decorating techniques for the kids, who all got to decorate a cupcake. Kristiane Hughes and Dillon Person with Persephone Theatre played drama games with the kids that were meant to develop confidence, vocal use, and creativity. Shannon Fitzsimmons demonstrated musical theatre and hip hop. Boris Sichon brought part of his extensive musical instrument collection (which totals over 200 pieces) and had the students participate in both the workshops and the concert he performed at the end of the day. Hus brings 13 years of country to Watson Jim Haussecker got a very special performance for his birthday: a late night concert by Canadian country singer, Tim Hus. Including the band, 75 people came out to the concert at McNab Regional Park Clubhouse on Oct. 2 in Watson. Playing everything from his own Canadiana country to covers of classic country songs by Stompin’ Tom Connors, Hus played until late into the night. Tisdale no longer the land of rape and honey Tisdale’s infamous “Land of Rape and Honey” slogan will be changed. Five out of seven town council members voted for

change at its Oct. 14 meeting after a survey on the slogan revealed 57 per cent supported rebranding, 36 per cent were opposed and seven per cent had no opinion. There were 309 respondents out of an eligible group of 2,660. The survey had a five per cent margin of error at a 95 per cent confidence rate. Sean Wallace, the town’s economic development officer, said there will be a process to find a new slogan that will involve the community. The goal is to have a new brand announced on June 1, 2016. October Browne performs October’s Home Routes show October’s Home Routes artist October Browne joked that she changes her name depending on what months she’s performing. She brought folk and traditional ballads to the Backwoods Bed and Breakfast in Annaheim on October 16. Browne’s show featured a lot more audience participation than previous shows, with her playing several audience requests in a row. The concert took on a more casual feel as some of the requests she had trouble remembering and had to figure out on her own. Bisons have successful year The Bruno Bisons senior men’s baseball club had a successful 2015 season. In league competition, the boys finished with a 14-7 record, good enough for sixth place. This qualified them for the playoffs, which were short lived. The team packed their bags and spent the Aug. 7-9 weekend in Macklin to compete at provincials. Due to the large margin of victory the Bisons had over Oxbow, the Bisons earned a ticket to the provincial final pitting them in a rematch against Wilkie. Unfortunately, the boys from Bruno had a tough

Englefeld shows off new gym floor Englefeld School kicked off their Oct. 21 school day with a special ribbon cutting for the floor they were standing on. The new floor is made of Pulastic flooring, seamless and provides more of a cushion to prevent injuries. Principal Patsy Knafelc says all the local gym floors were installed with tile in the 1980’s. She says it is nice to see her gym get a face lift. Continued on page 6

Year in Review - October Continued from page 5 Mayor of Englefeld, Darrell Athmer knows how much the Englefeld School needed a new floor. Asbestos in the floor and how it was breaking up would be dangerous though there was no injuries to the kids yet. It was definitely needed. Artist in Residence brings power of puppets to seniors and young-

sters Kristi Friday wants to bring art and theatre to rural Saskatchewan. Through the Dancing Sky Artist in Residence program funded by the Saskatchewan Arts Board, she was doing just that in communities such as Watrous, Cudworth, Middle Lake, and Humboldt. Seniors and public daycare children gathered at the Community Gathering Place on Oct. 13 and

Oct. 20 to learn about putting on a puppet show through Friday’s teaching. Friday talked about how to make a puppet come to life, putting on a play, creating voices, and phyicalization of the puppet. Focus on local at Naicam Trade Show Wendy Ferguson has organized the Naicam Spring and Fall Trade Show for a number of years,

always trying to focus on local businesses. Even though they are a small trade show, like the one on Oct. 23-24 at Naicam Town Hall, Freguson says she is always full of businesses from Naicam and area. The majority, if not all, of the businesses were primary run by women. That’s just the demographic of home based businesses around Naicam, says Ferguson.

High erosion rates another sign of climate change Last week I touched on an issue which while very much one of concern for farmers is perhaps being discounted at present because it is hard to fully understand just what weather change will mean. An issue farmers should better understand though is the loss of arable land from erosion. Perhaps nowhere more so than the Canadian Prairies. The impact of the drought years of the 1930s did much to forge the resiliency which is being a farmer on the Prairies. While those years are now well in our past, they remain very much part of the collective memory of anyone with a connection to Prairie farming. The event of the 1930s was severe and devastating because of its impact. While the focused effect of lack of moisture and wind today is not as concentrated, at least here, erosion is still occurring to arable land at an alarming rate. “One-third of the world’s arable land has been lost to soil erosion or pollution in the last 40 years, scientists said in research published during climate change talks in Paris,” suggested a recent story out of Thomson Reuters Foundation. That is a startling figure when you consider we are talking a period starting in the mid-1970s, the era of my high

school years. In the ensuing years we have seen farmers, at least again here on the Canadian Prairies become much more erosion conscience. It was in this time frame programs such as ‘Save Our Soils’ were launched. It was through such efforts farmers began to change cropping systems. The s t a n d a rd h a d been one where half the land was left to fallow each year as a weed control method which left the land bare and vulnerable to both wind and water erosion. That evolved to minimum till systems, and ultimately no till, leaving crop stubble and residue as a soil cover to help protect topsoil from being blown, or washed away. It takes about 500 years to generate 2.5 centimetres of topsoil under normal agricultural conditions, and soil loss

has accelerated as demand for food rises, biologists from Britain’s Sheffield University said in the report, detailed the story. “Soil is lost rapidly but replaced over millennia, and this represents one of the greatest global threats to agriculture,” Sheffield University biology professor Duncan Cameron said in a statement with the report. Obviously concepts such as zero till needs to expand to more agricultural areas. But it goes farther too. Some crops produce more organized material which help build soils, while others do not. Cropping choices are then part of the issue, although it is hard to weigh soil rebuilding against the need to grow the crops with the best opportunity to reasonable profitability to keep the bills paid.

But there is value in organic matter being returned to the soil. Farming today relies heavily on fertilization to ensure yields. However, there is a resource pull when it comes to fertilizer production, in particular natural gas. Will that remain viable long term? At today’s resource prices it may well be reasonable, but the issue of soil health is one which must be considered over a much longer term. It is a finite resource upon which world food production rests. Soil degradation is an all too real threat to the ability of agriculture to produce the food we need. And, it has to be remembered that the world population is continuing to expand, with not even a hint anyone will even broach the subject of controlling that side of the equation. As it stands by 2050 the world’s population is expected to exceed nine billion. That only adds to the urgency to protect our soil resource if we are to keep the world fed. Imagine if another one third of our soil were lost in the next 40 years, or in essence when we hit the nine billion mouths to feed. It is a prospect that is truly dire and to prevent it, we need to work diligently every year moving forward.

Obituaries EGGERMAN: Johanna (nee Meyer) Dec. 3, 1922 - Jan. 11, 2016 The death of Mrs. Johanna (nee Meyer) Eggerman of Watson, SK, occurred at Humboldt District Hospital, Humboldt, SK, on Monday, January 11, 2016. She was 93 years of age. Johanna, the oldest of seven children, was born on Sunday, December 3, 1922, to George and Mary (nee Greipl) Meyer at home on their farm near Fulda, SK. She grew up there and attended Keller Country School. Johanna was her father’s “righthand man�, and did lots of the field work. The lure of the city took her to Saskatoon, SK, for a housekeeping position. Later, Johanna moved to Prince Albert where she was employed at the Prince Albert Sanitorium. Henry Eggerman, a neighbor and childhood friend made the trip to Prince Albert to ask Johanna to marry him. They were joined together in matrimony on June 6, 1950 in Fulda. Together, Johanna and Henry farmed northwest of Watson and raised a family of two, a son and a daughter. As the children were growing up, the family enjoyed many fishing and camping trips. Henry and Johanna retired in 1981 and left the farm to make their home in the town of Watson. Johanna will be lovingly remembered and sadly missed by her two children, five grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren: Larry (Paulette) Eggerman of Watson and family, Philip Eggerman (Deena Ottenbreit) of Watson, Michelle (Ken) Snider of Guernsey, SK, and their children Ethan and Rayna, and Aimee Eggerman (Zach Martin) of Simpson, SK; and Lorena (Edwin) Neitsch and family, James Neitsch and Jason Neitsch, all of Edmonton, AB; two sisters and one brother: Cecelia Hitchings of Saskatoon, SK; George (Donna) Meyer of Camrose, AB; and Florence Saretsky of Humboldt, SK; and by her nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her husband, Henry Eggerman (2002); parents, George and Mary (nee Greipl) Meyer; three brothers: John Meyer, Albert Meyer, and Frank Meyer; two sisters: Hilda (Stan) Adamson, and Mary Meyer; and by brothers-in-law, Elmer Hitchings and Charles Saretsky. The Prayer Service for Johanna was held at Sacred Heart R.C. Church, Watson, on Friday, January 15, 2016, at 7:30 p.m., led by Wanda Bryce and Willie Gaudet. Others taking part were: Judy Eggerman and Lisa Eggerman, scripture readers; Eugene Eggerman, intentions; and Gene Eggerman, eulogist. The Funeral Mass was offered at Sacred Heart R.C. Church on Saturday, January 16, 2016, at 10:00 a.m., celebrated by Fr. Francis Akomeah. Others taking part were: Jason Neitsch, crossbearer; Judy Eggerman and Tim Lindenbach, scripture readers; Eugene Eggerman, intentions; Michelle Snider and Aimee Eggerman, giftbearers; Myrna Lindenbach, eulogist; James Neitsch and Jason Neitsch, memorial table attendants. Pallbearers were Philip Eggerman, Deena Ottenbreit, Aimee Eggerman, Zach Martin, Michelle Snider, and Ken Snider. Interment followed at Sacred Heart R.C. Cemetery. Memorial donations may be directed to the Sacred Heart R.C. Cemetery Fund or the Canadian Cancer Society. Schuler-Lefebvre Funeral Chapel, Humboldt, SK.

Year in Review - November Soccer weekend for local schools It was a busy weekend for high school soccer teams. Four local teams went to provincial competitions and two local teams brought home the championship. At the field in Lake Lenore, the Lake Lenore and Middle Lake seniors boys competed against Meadow Lake, Cando, Osler, Makwa Sahgaiehcan from Loon Lake, Cheif Little Pine from Little Pine Reserve and Stobart from Duck Lake. The senior girls from Humboldt and Lake Lenore travelled to Waldheim to compete against Waldheim, Cando, Osler, Stobart from Duck Lake, Lloydminister Holy Rosary and Martensville. Both Lake Lenore and Middle Lake won their matches to meet in the senior boys final. Middle Lake ended up taking the title 2-1. Again, it was a local battle in the senior girls championship game with both Humboldt and Lake Lenore taking all their matches to go up against each other in the end. Lake Lenore took the title with a 2-0 win. Donny Parenteau sings out against bullying A country music star came to Watson to speak against bullying. Donny Parenteau of Prince Albert was the special guest at the Watson Catholic Women’s League Fifth Annual Prayer Breakfast. Parenteau said he was invited by the league to give his Bully Free Zone presentation. Proceeds from the Nov. 7 event went towards Telemiracle – something that Parenteau is pleased to be part of. Parenteau invites those interested in having him speak against bullying to contact him from his website at donnyparenteau.com. Poet retells story of Bonnie and Clyde A poet with seven books published came to St. Peter’s College to talk about her latest one, which tells the story of Bonnie and Clyde in a poetic form. Careen, written by Carolyn Smart, who teaches at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ont., was released in September. She also wrote about Clyde’s older brother, Marvin ‘Buck’ Barrow; Buck’s wife, Blanche; Clyde and Buck’s parents, Cumie and Henry Barrow; and some of the other short-term members of the Barrow Gang, which was active during the Grand Depression from 1932 to 1934. Debt clock informing the public Saskatchewan’s debt is ticking ever upwards – and Todd MacKay, with the Canadian Taxpayer’s Federation, wants the citizens of the province to know. MacKay, the federation’s prairie director, was travelling around Saskatchewan with a debt clock Nov. 2 to 6. He stopped in around 15 communities across the province and was in Humboldt on Nov. 5. The clock showed people that Saskatchewan’s debt was going up by about $2.7 million a day. MacKay said they were doing this in order to make that amount of money more real to the people in Saskatchewan. Watson Craft Show Supporting Community Spirit This Sunday had the town of Watson gearing up and ready to sell with their annual Craft Show. Run by volunteers from the Watson Community Club, and chaired by Leslie McLeod, the craft show promoted local small-town businesses. The event was a feel-good family day out, with the good weather supporting and bringing in a great crowd. The show boasted purely homemade foods, crafts, and clothing by local people – bringing in one of a kind styles, and freshly baked food. The event encouraged the involvement and growth of local artists, ranging from a large age bracket, and had people coming from as far as Kelvington and Prince Albert to participate. A raffle was held, giving out door prizes, and encouraging people to join in on the day. Scott Cook Brings the Country to Backroads B & B Scott Cook performed this month’s House Concert on Nov. 14, hosted by Les and Shirley Kunz. The concert was an intimate turnout with twenty people, and went through two sets of forty minutes of music. Each of his songs brings in a different taste, from romantic to political, Scott’s songs give a flowing story as they’re sung. Starting out the night with his song “Carving Stone”,

Scott set about bringing a lighthearted atmosphere into the group. His other songs of the night included the entertaining, “This One’s on the House (The Hobo Song)”, and included songs written by songwriter Trevor Mills, and going so far as to finish the night with an encore of the all-time classic, “Rainbow Connection”. Big volleyball weekend for local teams Senior girls 1A: Annaheim and Englefeld senior girls both headed to Legacy Christian Academy in Saskatoon for their regional tournament Nov. 14. After getting to the playoffs, Englefeld would lose to the host team to take second and head to provincials in Medstead on Nov. 20-21. Annaheim would lose their third place match to place fourth in the region. Senior girls 2A: Muenster hosted the regional 2A tournament on Nov. 14. Muenster would advance to the playoffs but would lose out to Foam Lake to fall into third place. Grain car derails south of Melfort Nobody was hurt when 10 rail cars full of grain derailed south of Melfort. Melfort RCMP arrived at the scene approximately one mile south of the intersections of Highways 41 and 41A after receiving a call around 2:30 a.m. Nov. 12. There were no hazardous materials or dangerous goods involved. Canadian National Railways sent crews to remove the damaged cars and repair the line. The railway is investigating the cause of the derailment. Police said they don’t suspect any criminal was involved. Checking it off the bucket list It was a night of influences at the last Performer’s Cafe of 2015 at the Humboldt and District Gallery on Nov. 19. Humboldt’s Jodie Hergott took the headline spot for the first time along with bandmates from 40oz Philosophy. The crowd was warm and receptive says Hergott, singing along with Hergott’s mix of classic country and modern pop. Staying positive in the face of cancer No one needs to talk to Curtis Grudnitzki and his wife Jolene, nee Schmidt, to see the kind of special people they are. Everyone could see that just by watching the town of Lanigan file into their Nov. 21 fundraiser. Planned by Jolene’s sister, Kaylyn Bartel, their

hometown gathered to support the couple on their journey through Curtis’s cancer. Bartel says that they raised 18,359 for Curtis and Jolene. Local history through stained glass The building is 105 years old and looking better than ever. Especially with uniquely detailed stained glass windows adorning the St. Peter’s Cathedral outside of Muenster. Nov. 22 was a night to celebrate the parishioners and pioneers that those windows were dedicated to, with the last window being installed around October this year. Elaina Adams of Priaire Glass was the artist behind the new stained glass windows everywhere in the cathedral, from the choir loft to the sacristy. She worked with the families to produce works that reflect the history of the area and the history of the family itself. The prairie landscape was a theme that the families and the committee focused on considering the history of the area. The current building was built in 1910 and was the centre of St. Peter’s colony. East Central government liquor stores to be sold Six government liquor stores in the area will be among the 40 to be privatized by the provincial government.

Year in Review - November Continued from page 11 The privatization is part of a series of reforms to provincial liquor policy that includes 12 additional private liquor stores, having all stores run under one single set of rules instead of four, expanding product lines, expanding possible store hours, allowing off-sales to buy wholesale from the Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Authority and al-

lowing grocery stores to open in-house liquor outlets. The changes will take place after the next provincial election. Don McMorris, the minister in charge of SLGA, said his government wanted to have broad consultations with lots of stakeholders before any change was made. Winter Gala benefits Melfort shelter This year ’s North East Outreach and Support Services Winter Gala was

hosted in Naicam on Nov. 21. A supper and entertainment provided by the Dueling Pianos, and cocktails, were all in an effort to raise funds for “House of Hope� Capital Campaign in the efforts to fund the Women’s Shelter in Melfort. With a large turnout, and selling of upwards of 160 tickets, the night was an overall success for the campaign, bringing together communities and introducing the need for a shelter.

Currently the campaign stands at having raised over $500,000 – putting them at just under the halfway mark of their current goal of $1.25 million. The North East Outreach and Support Services have been valiantly raising the funds for the house, bringing in donations from all over in an attempt to hit their goal.

right away to get their arena back up. Through corporate donations, grants, personal donations and numerous town fundraisers, it only took two years to get the project off the ground. The current total for the project is a little over $5 million and for a community of approximately 600 people, $5 million in 2 years took a lot of hard work. Along with the hardwork of numerous members of the community, the arena is on its way to providing many more years of memories for the Town of Leroy. Annaheim boys win volleyball gold at home The Annaheim Rebels Sr. Boys volleyball team are provincial champions. And victory has never felt so sweet for the team. The villages of Annaheim and Lake Lenore played host and co-host, respectively, to the 2015 1A Boys Volleyball Provincial Championships on Nov. 27-28. The championship match saw Annaheim dominate play against Goodsoil in the first set, a 25-18 win, but let their lead slip away in the second set. After trailing 23-17 and a third set just points away, the Rebels offence came alive and rallied the team to eight straight points and a dramatic 25-23 comeback victory. The win gave the school their second provincial volleyball title and the fifth time in eight years winning a provincial medal.

The Lake Lenore Cafe now has some new art work for the walls. Local artists from Lake Lenore High School will be showing off their work. It all came from a conversation owners, Michael Cleveland and Amber Rumpel, had with teacher Susan Creurer. This is a way people in the community can see the art program that the school has, says Creurer. Creurer and Rumpel hope to switch out the collection every few months. photo by Becky Zimmer
