LeRoy brings anti-bullying message to local students By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

LeRoy School hosted a Pink Day event on Mar. 9 presented by the LeRoy Student Representative Council. LeRoy hosted approximately 450 students from schools from around the region including Drake, Lake Lenore, Lanigan, LeRoy, Middle Lake, Quill Lake, Raymore and Watson. The event saw Ian Tyson visit the

school to talk about changing the way children handle a situation. Instead of making everything a negative turn it into a positive. He spoke about how the average person spends 16.5 years of their life doing five simple tasks including six months sitting in traffic or at traffic stops, one year looking for lost items, four years doing housework, five years standing in lines and six years

His message when telling the kids about that time was telling them that instead of looking at it as time spent doing those tasks he encouraged the kids to look at it as time invested doing those tasks. The simple change in approach will make things easier to do and will help you keep a level head. Tyson has been a constant at pink days speaking across the country every year and says it is a very important issue that needs to be addressed, noting both of his children was the subject of bullying. “Bullying is certainly a huge issue in the middle and high school all across North America and that’s why the piece I Scott Hammell juggles hatchets during the Pink Day did today about atti- event at LeRoy School on Mar. 9.

St. Brieux Drama Club treats crowd to Daddy’s Girl By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

The St. Brieux Drama Club hosted their annual drama presentation on Mar. 11 with this year ’s play titled Daddy’s Girl. The play was about a grouchy chef who owned a small time diner in Saskatoon. The chef had his own rules and was very strict about the way it was operated even berating his employees. On the wall of his restaurant was a picture of his deceased wife and he was the only one who could speak to her. Over the course of the play a number of different guests would show up and have dinner at his diner, including one female who was madly in love with him and wanted to be his wife or at the very least a very close friend. Not long after the play started an angel by the name of Michael appeared and informed the diner owner that it was the 25th birthday of his daughter, who he had put up for adoption after his wife died because he felt he could not sufficiently raise her on his own. The angel then informed the picture of the owners wife and the owner that he would meet his daughter on her birthday. Over the course of the play a pair of 25-year-old women visited the diner and fit the age criteria, they were adopted from the same adoption agency he left his daughter at and they had the right name. Now, it was his job to figure out which one was his daughter. As the play went along the diner owner discovered that neither of the women was his daughter and in fact his daughter was a waitress he has hired five weeks prior and had been especially

Discussing tolerance with a movie night By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

Diversity is a word people hear a lot about these days. But it is not something people really talk about. That is why staff at the Humboldt Regional Newcomer Centre are using a movie to start that broader conversation on diversity. “As a team, we were looking for a movie that would embrace all of that rather than just cultural diversity, or sexuality and gender identity,” says Newcomer Centre Executive Director, Janine Hart. The Newcomers Centre will be offering two showings of the movie, Bend it Like Beckham on Mar. 21 at Reel Attractions to have that dia-

logue. The first showing will be at 9 am with a group of grade 8 students. Part of working with the grade 8 class will be encouraging discussion in a way that is inclusive to grade school children. “We’ll give them some guiding questions beforehand that the teachers can go over with them and think about,” says Chelsea Nadiger, a school settlement worker with the Necomer Centre. Speakers will also be part of the event so students can hear from local people and what their experiences with intercultural relationships and diversity have been. The evening showing at 7 pm is open to the public and will hopefully include a live speaker and discussion

as well. The day is a pretty important day as well, with Mar 21 being the International Day of the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. “It fits well that it is that day,”says Nadiger. The discussion also fits well with current events around refugees. “That seems to be a huge focus for not only this region but it is something that people do talk about in this region, with a heavy focus on Muslim religion and culture,” says Hart. Bend it Like Beckham may not be about Muslim characters but it does embrace characters another culture and religion practices. The movie has many other themes beside culture but also talks about things like intergenerational clashes, sexual and gender identity, cultural integration, and class identity. However, the movie does not just focus on

one theme alone. “The issue of gender diversity is not the forefront issue and cultural clashing is not the main issue. It’s one of the main issues but it’s a nice story,” says Nadiger. Plus, it has a happy ending, laughs Nadiger. The movie is also kid friendly and has easy language to understand so this is a good way to open up the dialogue community wide and move forward, but this event will also give people the opportunity to ask questions. Especially with the speaker there. “We’re hoping to provide an environment that will enable that,” says Hart. Tickets, including a small pop and popcorn, are $7 and are being presold at the Newcomer Centre on 9th street. People can also donate to a silver collection at the door.

Protein; natures building blocks

By Dr. Megan Parker, ND Health Columnist

Protein is an integral component making up a healthy diet. We need to consume protein on a regular basis to be healthy, but a lot of people are unsure what protein is exactly. Proteins are one of the building blocks of our bodies and one of our main fuel sources. They are essential nutrients for the human body. Proteins are large molecules that are made up from smaller amino acids. The amino acid combination of a particular protein is what determines its structure and how it affects our body. When we consume proteins the bonds between the amino acids are broken down, and individual amino acids are absorbed which provide a variety of functions in our bodies. There are 20 amino acids that make up the basic structures of proteins. Of those, there are 9 essential amino acids, meaning that we are unable to synthesize them on our own and need to obtain them from our diet in order to prevent malnutrition. Our body requires protein for multiple reasons. It is a major component of our physical body, making up muscles, organs and various molecules that function within our body. Protein is also a source of fuel and energy for our body. Because of the bonds holding amino acids together, protein is broken down slowly by our body and provides us with sustained energy unlike foods with high sugar contents which are broken down and used up quickly.

Protein is also required for building muscle so it is helpful if you are striving to tone up your body or improve your athletic ability. Proteins also serve as precursors to hormones and other molecules our body requires to manage inflammation. We do need to make sure we are consuming protein on a daily basis as our body utilizes it all the time. Most people assume the majority of the protein in our diet is used to make our muscles strong and firm, but our skeletal muscles turn over its protein every 30 days. Let’s compare that to the liver which is turning over proteins every 48 hours. And the lining of our small intestine actually turns over its protein every single day. On a daily basis, the average individual requires 0.8 g of protein per 1 kg of body weight. For example, someone weighing 80 kg, or 175 lbs, should consume approximately 64 g of protein per day. Reaching this amount will not only prevent protein malnutrition, but also keep our bodies performing optimally. Endurance athletes and body builders should be consuming a little more protein to make up for the high demands on their bodies, but the extra amount needed depends on the type of activities and intensities they are performing. Vegetarians and vegans also require more protein than omnivores because many of their protein sources are not complete and need closer to 1.0 g per each 1 kg of body weight. When our bodies don’t receive enough protein they go into what we call a state of protein energy malnutrition. That’s just a fancy term for we don’t have enough protein to perform the functions that our body needs it to do and it is going to suffer because of that. Early signs of inadequate protein are poor energy, feeling sluggish and increased infections. We also will start to see signs of slowed growth and muscle wasting, but these won’t be visibly evident for a few months as our muscle takes time to turn over new cells. Other effects in our body include increased cortisol, increased growth hormone, decreased insulin,

decreased thyroid function and a decline in immune system function. Protein is found in a wide variety of both plant and animal sources. Animal sources of proteins are more complete proteins in that they contain all nine of those essential amino acids our body cannot make on its own. Most plant sources of protein are lacking one or two of those amino acids making them incomplete, meaning we need to eat a variety of different protein sources to get all the requirements we need in a day. If you choose to eat a vegetarian or vegan diet, make sure that you are consuming nuts, beans, whole grains (and milk and eggs) on a daily basis in order to achieve adequacy. Animal sources of protein include chicken, beef, pork, salmon, turkey, eggs and dairy including milk, cheese and yogurt. Plant sources of proteins typically are found in nuts, grains and legumes. These include almonds, walnuts, peanuts, oats, rice, wheat, corn, beans, lentils, chickpeas and tofu. Because we require protein for so many body functions it is important to strive to get protein with every meal and snack. Protein will help keep our energy stable throughout the day and keep our body working at its prime. Cook up some eggs for breakfast. Eat a handful of almonds with your apple for a snack. Dip your carrots in some hummus rather than regular dressing. Every little bite adds up and your body will definitely be grateful for providing it with much needed protein every day.

Feel sorry for Laich? Maybe, maybe not

By Bruce Penton Sports Columnist Brooks Laich must feel like the guy waiting in line for a couple of hours to ride the best ferris wheel in the world and then, finally getting to the front, hearing those awful words: “Sorry, closed for the day.” For 12 years, Laich stood in line for the Washington Capitals, never getting to the front — until this year. Finally, the ferris wheel ride would be his: the Caps are the best team in the league and one of a couple of teams figuring to be strong favourites to win the Stanley Cup. Until … trade deadline day arrived on Feb. 29, and Laich was shipped to the Toronto Maple Leafs. Sorry, back of the line buddy. But don’t feel sorry for Brooks Laich, the 32-year-old pride of Wawota, Sask. The guy has a few million dollars

in the bank, thanks to a healthy contract he signed recently that pays him $4.5 million a year. He’s engaged to a famous movie star, Julianne Hough, who starred in the recent TV movie Grease and was a TV regular as a two-time Dancing with the Stars champion and more recently a judge on the same show. He has a loving family back in Wawota and a whole community who follows his every move. So Laich has the money, the pretty girl and a reverence among fans in Washington, who loved his willingness to interact as a “regular guy” with Washington fans. He made headlines a few years ago by making a late-night highway stop to change a flat tire on a Caps fan’s car after she and her daughter had just watched Laich’s Capitals get eliminated from the playoffs. It’s Laich lore that will probably be a footnote, or perhaps the opening paragraph, in his Hockey News obituary. So the fans love him, his banker loves him, and Hough obviously loves him, too, but 2016 won’t be Laich’s favourite year because he’s now a member of the worst team in the NHL, and it will be cruel punishment for him to watch on TV as the best friends he has in the whole world — Alex Ovechkin and Co. — stride toward the Stanley Cup. Don’t feel sorry for him as a person, but you could shed a tear for him as a hockey player, because the Holy Grail for anyone who chases and

shoots pucks for a living — so close to his grasp for the past six months — is suddenly as unreachable as ever. “I have such an empty feeling that I never got the ultimate goal,” Laich told Sportsnet. But true to form, he took the high road: “They’re lifelong friends. We grew up together and I’m always thankful for them and I will always wish them the best.” • RJ Currie of sportsdeke.com: “Given his latest suspension, I’m wondering where Sabres’ forward Evander Kane learned to play hockey. Boarding school?” • RJ Currie again: “Pablo Sandoval of the Red Sox told reporters he reported to spring training with a fat ratio of 17 per cent. But enough about the man’s head.” • Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times: “About two dozen prisoners ran 105 laps inside the penitentiary walls at this year’s annual San Quentin Marathon. Progressive inmates are reportedly pushing to replace it with a pole-vault competition.” • Comedy writer Alex Kaseberg: “Australian Adam Scott beat U.S.’s Bubba Watson at Donald Trump’s Doral golf course for the Cadillac Championship. Or as Trump called Scott beating Watson, another foreigner taking an American job. Trump wants to build a wall between us and Australia.” • Bernie Lincicome, in the Chicago Tribune, decrying basketball’s threepoint shot: “A basket should count what a basket counts. If we start as-

signing greater value to the length of things, Pinocchio never would stop lying.” • Scott Feschuk of Sportsnet magazine says he has a huge advantage going into the Rotisserie League baseball season because “I know that 100 percent of the players interviewed so far on MLB Radio are ‘feeling good’ and ‘looking forward to the season.’” • Bob Molinaro of pilotonline.com in Hampton, Va. “Wednesday night’s game between the Celtics and Grizzlies was held up for about a minute as officials went to the scorer’s table with 1.5 seconds left to look at a replay before adding 1/10th of a second to the clock. Why mention this? Because the Celts were leading by 20 points.” • Ian Hamilton of the Regina LeaderPost: “The New York Jets released Antonio Cromartie in a cost-cutting move. That’s bad news for a 10-year NFL veteran who has had 12 kids with eight women and who pays an estimated $336,000 US in child support every year. For him, buying a box of condoms would have been a cost-cutting move.” • And Hamilton again, to finish: “Ann Perez de Tejada, 68, made her mixed martial arts debut last Saturday against 32-year-old Laura Dettman. As expected, Dettman beat up a woman who is someone’s GraMMA.” Care to comment? Email brucepenton2003@yahoo.ca

The wary eye on genetic modifications

Calvin Daniels It is obvious to anyone following the issue of genetically modified crops, or livestock, that the technology remains controversial in the minds of many. Granted anything new can be looked upon with wary eyes, although the world seems to adopt tech such as cellphones, UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles), a myriad of new health products, and so much more with nary a sideways glance. Yes, GM on the farm means it is ultimately consumed, and that heightens the concerns

for many, although we take drugs nearly without question, and accept the waves that power cellphones are safe. The farm sector looking to expand its possibilities in terms of food production though faces a harsher audience. For myself the realm of GM intrigues me because I see it as holding out the quickest way to increased yields, to creating crops which can grow in more saline soils, that can thrive on less water, than can fight off bugs without insecticides etc. Will the tech solve all of the above issues? Truthfully not likely, at least in the short term, but GM does seem to hold a higher prospect of success in less time than conventional plant breeding developments, which is in essence genetic modification by more conventional means. The wheat that is to-

day resistant to rust is modified from the same wheat plant once devastated by the blight. So a recent article at www.producer.com caught my attention with the lead paragraph “If humans want fewer forests, more expensive food and more greenhouse gases, banning genetically modified crops is a good place to start, says a Purdue University economist.” It went on the explain, “a Purdue study, soon to be published in AgBioForum states that growing GM corn, soybeans and cotton reduces the amount of land needed to grow crops in the U.S., thus reducing greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural land.” As interesting as the rest of the article was, in terms of its positive take on the impact of GM crops, was the reaction noted in the comments. There were accusations of the article be-

ing simply propaganda, with a suggestion GMOs work like a bomb on the environment. The article suggested safety concerns are unproven, which had others commenting about more and more research connecting such foods to health concerns. Of course that is an issue isn’t it. Research often contradicts other research. One person noted that GMs have been around a couple of decades without evidence of problems, countered that issues can take longer than two, or three decades to emerge. That is likely true, DDT and asbestos and PCBs coming to mind. But does that mean we shelf every new product, or crop to allow a half century of data from testing before releasing it? Will cellphones one day be linked to brain conditions?

It doesn’t help that the public seems to have a current tilt away from trusting scientists. Is global climate change real? You can’t even get our MPs and MLAs all on the same page on that one, or on how we should be reacting if the issue is real. How the agricul-

ture sector manoeuvres through the current GM minefield is unclear. Those opposed as not to be swayed by science, or they would already have done so. And that really only leaves the passage of time, although that is worrisome since many still doubt we have landed on the moon.

Say no to bullying By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

Traveling to LeRoy School on Mar. 9 gave me a good feeling. I got an opportunity to see eight schools from around the region join together wearing pink in support of Pink Day, an anti-bullying campaign. Bullying affects a lot of people, especially kids at the high school and elementary school level. Hosting events like these are critical for children because it tells the kids that might be bullying other children that what they are doing is wrong. It also shows the children being bullied that there are a lot of people who do not support bullying and allows them to feel like they have help. Now admittedly, having rallies talking about how to stop bullying and actually stopping bullying are two totally different things but the first step towards eradicating a problem is becoming aware that there is one. Through spreading awareness about bullying you are putting children through the first steps of stopping bullying. When I went to high school there were fights all the time. It was very rare that you could make it through a week of school without there being a fight. I can remember hearing about one particular circumstance where a kid

was being bullied and apparently had been for a long time. Instead of picking a fight with his bully he got up and smashed a window in the cafetorium on his way out of the building. My school never did Pink Days and admittedly I had never even heard of it before I went to LeRoy School but I wish my school did have it because there is a chance that some of the fights that happened weekly could have been avoided and possibly the student that smashed a window in frustration of his being bullied might have stopped. My school was a lot different from some of the local schools in this area in that I went to school with 900 high school students. With a much larger school you do not have the same opportunities to know every person in the school. As a result picking up on and stopping bullying is much harder. With Pink Day you can help spread the work making the awareness higher as well as the potential for stopping bullying. The second Wednesday of April every year is declared the International Day of Pink, so on Apr. 13 let’s all wear pink to show our support and help raise awareness for the effects of bullying. Bullying could be happening to your children or grandchildren and you may not even know.

Axemen claim another provincial title By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

The Bruno Axemen claimed another provincial championship at provincials on Mar. 4-5. The win marked the Axemen’s 18th provincial championship since 1990. During that span of 27 provincial tournaments the Axemen have yet to finish off the podium adding six silver medals and three bronze to their 18 golds. Having a program so successful for so many years is not easy especially for a small community but Axemen Head Coach, Ray Bender, says with such a good junior program in Bruno it help make the senior team better. “Over the years we’ve been fortunate enough to have a fair amount of veterans, plus we can always bring in a few young kids so it keeps the team going. A lot of teams are strong for a few years because they don’t have any buddy taking over eventually then they just phase out.” Experience plays a big part in the ability to develop the junior players, says Bender who brought three junior players along for the provincial championship. “You start slowly. You bring them up for this provincial and we play them as we see fit and certain shifts.” Bring out juniors really helps them get “their feet wet” and gives them the experience they need for future years, says Bender. This years tournament was not easy for the Axemen as they dropped a heartbreaker in their first game as they lead the Balgonie Barons 4-1 with six minutes to play in the game only to see their lead evaporate in a hurry en route to a 5-4 loss. With the loss the Axemen had their backs up against the wall needing to

The Axemen were pretty upset with themselves following the blown lead against the Barons. Bender said he noticed the players were hanging their heads after the game and told them to get prepared for their next game knowing a loss would end any chances of a provincial championship. Bender was pleased with his teams response, saying his player dug deep to win their two remaining round robin games setting up a championship rematch against

the Barons. The Axemen were able to exact some revenge on the Barons in the final, giving them a taste of their own medicine as the Axemen trailed 2-0 until nearly halftime before scoring four unanswered goals of their own to beat the Barons 4-2. Looking ahead to nationals, Bender says he has a lot of experience at that level throughout the years, having been there many times before including as coach of three national championship teams in 2004, 2006 and 2007. Bender says he expects tough competition once he gets there noting Ontario

and Quebec always ice very strong and very tough teams. “We know they’re going to be tough, they always are, Quebec is always young, fast, good stick handlers in their teams and the same with Ontario.” The national championships take place in Owen Sound, Ontario from Apr. 6-9. The Bruno Broomball Association also took home provincial titles in Junior Boy’s and Senior Men’s Non-Contact, marking the first time ever for Bruno that all three teams won the provincial title in the same year.

Telemiracle broadcasts now part of Saskatchewan archives By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

Over the past 40 years, Telemiracle has raised $116,869,064 to help people in Saskatchewan who are in need. In honour of their 40th telethon, all the past broadcasts are now part of the Saskatchewan archives collection. “It is such a Saskatchewan event,” says Telemiracle 40 Public Relations Director, Clint Shkuratoff. “Something that’s been going on this long, it’s neat if someone wants to go and look back and see how this whole thing started that they have a chance to do that,” From the first telethon which brought in a staggering $1 million dollars to the $3-$5 million dollars

brought in every year since Telemiracle 25 in 2001, Shkuratoff says that it is interesting looking back. Acquisition and Appraisal Unit Manager, Trina Gillis, says that the telethon is very well known, not just throughout the province, but throughout the country. Telemiracle is a very important part of our provincial history, says Gillis. “It’s part of the whole fabric of the province and we feel it is important for the social history of the

province.” The fact that the telethon has been going strong for 40 years shows the support the people of Saskatchewan gives year in and year out, says Gillis. People who want more information on past shows are free to go into the archives and research the telethon themselves. Visit www.saskarchives.com for more information on accessing past Telemiracle broadcasts. 16033NP1

LeRoy brings anti-bullying message to local students Continued from page 2 Scott Hammel brought his own message to the Pink Day assembly, which was about facing fears, overcoming adversity, and stepping outside your comfort zone. Hammel brought a student on stage and juggled juggling balls overtop of him. When the student showed no fear Hammel moved up to juggling clubs and when that did not phase the student he moved up to hatchets. Hammel did not actually juggle the hatchets over the student saying it was much too big of a risk, he did teach a valuable lesson about fear and trust. Hammel says bringing the message of overcoming fear and stepping outside their comfort zone is important to discover what a person is truly capable of. “By taking these calculated risks you’re able to go beyond what you think you’re capable of and how can I apply that to my day to day life.” Hammel likes bringing his message to students because often times hearing the same message from family, friends and teachers can get stale. “I think it’s important sometimes to bring outsiders with different perspectives and people that have done things that people in their own community

might not be doing or talking about and just exposing them to different people, different messages and different stories.” Hammel is a four-time Guiness Book of World Records holder and was featured on Ripley’s Believe It or Not for his straitjacket escape. Hammel was suspended 7,200 feet in the air upside down on the underside of a hot air balloon basket wrapped in 50 feet of steel chains, secured with four padlocks, while wearing a straitjacket and managed to escape it all setting one of his four world records. LeRoy Student Representative Council Advisor Danielle Bilodeau said the school has been hosting the event bi-annually for the past few years and sees it as an opportunity to bring students from around the region together and said she hopes it can provide the kids with a change of attitude towards pink day as well as every day. “Our goal this year was more character building and building a little bit of self-confidence in themselves and making sure that they have enough self worth to be able to stand up to a bully,” she said. Student Representative Council Co-President Cassidy Oesch said she saw hosting this event as a great way to make a difference in students’ lives. “When you make a difference it feels good…

it’s important for our school and our surrounding schools to have it and so to be apart of it and to be able to be like, ‘hey I was apart of pink day 2016.’ When you remember this it’s cool, it’s fun..” Pink Day started a number of years ago after a gay student wore a pink shirt and was bullied for it. Two students who saw the bullying happening and put a stop to it but wanted to do more to prevent homophobic and transphobic bullying, so they bought pink shirts and had the whole school come in wearing pink shirts and stand in solidarity. Since then the day has grown and is now celebrated across the country with the second Wednesday of April being the International Day of Pink. Both Hammel and Tyson said they were very happy to be in LeRoy and felt very welcome by everyone. Hammel said coming to Saskatchewan adds extra meaning for him because he finds audiences seem more appreciative. “Because not enough acts tour through here, Saskatchewan audiences are very appreciative of different types of acts and that’s why it’s so much fun for me to come out here so any chance that I get to do shows in Saskatchewan, I’m all for it,” Hammel said.

Chamber celebrates successful 2015 province. “By us showcasing the businesses and the talent and we really show the rest of the province what we have in Humboldt and how well the businesses are doing and that is to really attest to the fact that this is the best place to live and work.” Kruger was very pleased with how the event turned out saying it went exceptionally well and it was a fantastic night.

By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter The Humboldt and District Chamber of Commerce held the 17th annual Mark of Excellence awards night on Mar. 11 at the Humboldt Uniplex. The awards night recognizes companies and organizations from throughout Humboldt and District. The event was very well attended with tickets being 96 percent sold out and honoured three individuals as well as nine companies/organizations. Chamber President, Andre Kruger, said it was important for the chamber to recognize the deserving individuals who were nominated and won awards at the event because it is a great opportunity to show Humboldt off to the rest of the

in making the move. Today, there are three workers who have been hired on a full time basis and will move out here soon and a fourth who has been hired on a part time basis, with the possibility of it turning into a full time position. Kruger said he was very pleased when he heard that Humboldt and District could attract people from other parts of Canada. “They look at the region, they love what they see and Humboldt and this district is very friendly, very

welcoming to strangers and we want to keep it that way.” When it came time for the awards presentation there were many successful companies but none more so than Pharmasave’s, Mike and Lacey Rath, who were honoured with two awards. The first award the pair won was the Marketing Award awarded to the business that created and performed the best marketing strategy. Continued on page 19

Schools qualify for Hoopla 2016 By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

Seven local schools clinched provincial basketball berths after winning their regional basketball tournament held Mar. 11-12 with all seven schools winning the regional tournaments on their home court.

Kinistino qualified for provincials in senior girls 2A high school basketball action after defeating Langenburg 88-64 on Mar. 11 and Shaunavon 75-62 on Mar. 12. Wynyard romped to a senior girls 2A regional title thanks to a pair of huge blowout victories. Their first game came on Mar. 11 where they held Montmartre to ten points during an 84-10

win. Wynyard returned to action on Mar. 12 where they again won by over 50 points beating Rosthern Junior College 89-37. In Humboldt, the Mohawks used a pair of 30-point victories to claim one of the senior girls 3A regional titles beating Unity on Mar. 11 71-41 and Assiniboia 59-29 on Mar. 12.

Viscount news By Sandra Reid Correspondent What a beautiful weekend for a spring melt! I didn’t take long for the snow to disappear, now if it stays away that will be great! On Mar. 12. there were 16 people that attended the Viscount Seniors Fundraising Breakfast. Winner of the Lucky Loonie Pot was Fred Barlage. Chris Rault and Karen Dale did the cooking and cleaning. The Seniors are looking forward

to the upcoming Crib tournament on Mar. 19. The grade 3/4 class visited the Village Office and the RM Office in Viscount. They are presently learning about local government in Social Studies and were able to ask questions at both offices. Once again a lovely group of ladies met at the Viscount Library, to join beautifully knitted and crocheted squares to produce blankets to donate to shelters in the city of

Saskatoon. We have many volunteers who make these squares for us (8x8), and others who donate yarn, still others who design patterns for the blankets. On Wednesday, ladies from Viscount and Plunkett come together weekly to spend three fun hours sewing and stitching and chatting, and of course enjoying a cup of tea with some sweets. If you have any interest in knowing more, please contact Evelina at 306-9442182.

Congrats to Barefoot Earth Farm, of Viscount. Operated by Rachel Lemke and Cory Weiman. They are now providing LB Distillery in Saskatoon with Wildflower Honey to be used in their products. This is the 5th season of Honey BeeKeeping, for the Barefoot Earth Farm. Best wishes to anyone that is under the weather, hope you feel better soon. If you have any news to share please let me know. Thankyou. Have a Great Week!

Support rural women By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

March is Rural Women’s Month which meant I had the delight of speaking with rural women last week about why this support is needed (East Central Trader, March 11, page 7). Agriculture is one of those industries where its media is dominated by men. How often do we see a woman driving the combine, or out in the pasture with the cattle? The press release from the Saskatchewan government tells an entirely different story.

S ANSWER E FROM TH PUZZLES IN LAST WEEKS EAST CENTRAL TRADER

CROSSWORD

Puzzle #810

“Nearly one in four farm operators in Saskatchewan is a woman, and one in 10 of those is a sole proprietor,” the press release says. Also that, “agriculture is the second-largest employer of rural women.” How often are our women farmers represented by society as being part of the agriculture industry? Like I said in the article last week, there are 41,500 people employed in the agriculture industry in Saskatchewan at the end of February 2016. By government numbers, 4,150 own their own farm and 10 thousand operate a farm. And these numbers are not just the farm Puzzle wives who take care of #545 the kids and take out meals to the field. These are women who also run the machinery, and as farm owners, make most of the decisions when it comes to running and maintaining their own farms. That is a big number of women who are not being recognized for their accomplishments and a large group of people we do not see

in this, like agriculturally based commercials and programming. I know women who have to deal with this stigma on a daily basis. Can we stop pretending that our genitals is what makes us good at something or bad at something? One friend works as an agronomist and earned a position high on the ladder right off the bat out of university. It took a long time before she was respected in any way by many of her male colleagues. I’m not saying that their reasoning was only because she is a female in the agriculture world. She is young, which can also cause a lot of unnecessary attitude among older employees, and was fresh out of university, which is a challenge for some people who have worked in the same industry for a while without a university degree. Based on many of her experiences, the fact that she is female definitely made a difference in the way she was respected at work. For the people saying right now, well she still needs to earn respect, would you be saying that if she was male? If it was a male doing grain testing and he said there is something wrong with the grain, would their word be challenged or his word more trusted because of the fact that he knows what he is doing? That should be the common test. Change the sex of the person you are dealing with. Would you treat them any differently if the sexes were reversed? 16033DE1

Memories we’ll hold so dearly, Your smile, warmed our hearts. And through our lives you’ll live, You’ve touch so many parts. Hard days may be with us, It’s all a part of God’s plan. Why you left so soon, We may never understand. You’ll be alone no longer And you’d tell us “Don’t be sad�. Please believe, you were no burden We’ll always love you, Dad. Our lives have changed forever, Since the day you passed away. In Heaven you’ll be waiting ‘To meet us again someday’. Missed and lovingly remembered by Glenda, Gord, Darcy, Bev, Tammy and families.

Broncos hand out yearly awards at banquet night By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter With the season now in the books, the Humboldt Broncos handed out their year-end awards at the Pioneer Hotel on Mar. 8 before the players went their separate ways for the summer. While the season did not go as anyone had hoped the theme of the evening was positivity and excitement because all the members of the Broncos organization who gave a speech saw a bright future for the team. No one was giving the team a pass for this season and made it clear that they expect better next year but they also admitted to being a very young team with a lot of opportunity for growth in the coming years. There were many awards handed out on the night with the big winner being forward Logan Schatz who won four awards. Schatz took home the award as the teams top scorer after finishing the season with 56 points in 57 games beating line mate Trevor Posch by 12 points for tops on the team. e award for having the best plus/ minus on the team as well as the three star award for being the best player on the road this season for the Broncos. The final award Schatz took home was the Most Valuable Player Award as he lead his team in assists, points and plus/minus as well as finishing the season as the captain after Corey Dambrauskas was lost for the rest of the season with a shoulder injury. Schatz was very happy to win the award saying it was a “big honour.” “So many great players have come

through this organization and to be named as one of the best players on the team this year from the coaching staff and my teammates, it really feels good to get noticed like that and I’m just happy that I was able to help my teammates out as much as I could.” Another big winner for the team was defenseman Connor Swystun who took home both the offensive and defensive defenseman awards. Swystun called it “awesome” to be named as both the best offensive and defensive defenseman of the year. “It’s a huge honour actually, I don’t know if anyone’s won both before this year. It’s a privilege to be named both offensive and defensive defenseman,” he said. Injured defenseman and team captain Corey Dambrauskas was named the coach’s award winner as the best team player but was unable to attend the banquet. During the announcement of the award Head Coach Darcy Haugan said when he was told there was a coach’s award the first player he thought of was Dambrauskas. Haugan recalled an exhibition game at the beginning of the year when Brody Doepker got hit from behind. Dambraukas was one of the first players to come to his teammates aid, said Haugan.

HEALTHY LIVING No excuse to not keep playing By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor Michelle Stevenson, Recreation Program Coordinator for Leisure Services in Humboldt is seeing the number of adults wanting to be active going up but sees more programs for youth and seniors. Âş/Â…iĂ€i ÂˆĂƒÂ˜½ĂŒ > Â?ÂœĂŒ ĂƒÂŤiVˆw V>Â?Â?Ăž directed towards adults...that 20 to 40-year-olds age group in our community.â€? Drop-in sports through Community and Leisure Services provides a non-committal, relaxed atmosphere for people out of high school or university and gives them the opportunity to keep playing sports. That is the appeal, says Stevenson, is that people can stop in whenever they have time. This is the age group that gets over looked because that is the age group that is perceived as the most busy. Children and their commitments, along with their own careers, take up a lot of time for the 20 to 40-year-olds. This is the generation whose own parents committed to their sports playing. “They’re looking to continue doing the things they like and cutting out time in their life for themselves.â€? Says Stevenson. At 23, Lee Gross still takes the time to play sports, no matter how busy he is. Âş ĂŒ `iw Â˜ÂˆĂŒiÂ?Ăž ÂˆĂƒ >Ă›>ˆÂ?>LÂ?i >˜` the city has rec leagues all the time, but I think people make excuses not to participate sometimes.â€? That is one of the main rea-

With the Greg Gross Memorial Volleyball tournament, a jab at his age, Gross’s dad started the tournament and still plays in it, even though Gross has taken over organizing duties.

Now that he lives in Humboldt, he looks for every opportunity to play sports, including slo-pitch tournaments in his hometown with his friends. “Now that I’m out here, going back home for tournaments is keeping up relationships with old friends. Whenever they ask me come play on a team, I’m immediately like, ‘yeah,’ because when else am I going to see them?â€? For Patti Durand, staying healthy is something that is very important to her.

When Durand is not feeling very energetic towards going out to play sports, it is because she has not been active, she says. She has experienced enough times to know that is the issue and to make herself go and play. Going to drop in sports is also a very social thing for Du-

Pickle ball and badminton has more appeal to older adults, basketball is mostly males with some females, and volleyball is the Ă•Â˜Âœvw Vˆ>Â?

Many people bringing new sports opportunities to the community. Touch football and women’s soccer have been two recent projects that residents have wanted to get started and Leisure Services has helped get off the ground. For people who do not see their sport in Humboldt, Stevenson says Leisure services can help get a new program off the ground. “We will point you in the right direction, help you get a committee formed, or a bank account, or help you apply for grants.â€?
