Fifty-eight Telemiracle performers have been chosen for the March 3-4 telethon to raise money for Saskatchewan people with disabilities.

In December, the Annaheim School of Dance found out that they had been chosen to perform on the province wide stage during the Saskatoon broadcast.

Kristen Kunz, Darcie Stuckel, Bailey Stuckel, Alyssa Wuchner, Kelly Wuchner, Kortney Chornomitz, Raine Chornomitz, Remi Bley, Jamie Poggenpoel and Madison Junk will take to the stage as the Annaheim School of Dance to perform on Sunday at 12:30 p.m.

Bailey Stuckel says the judges were impressed with the group’s energy on the audition stage.

Kunz says the group is excited to take part in the telethon and some of the members are going to try to take in as much of the event as possible.

The group is hard at work fundraising in preparation of their performance, says Stuckel, with a pancake breakfast and business donations helping their total.

Annaheim School is also having a pie throw to support their fundraising, says the girls.

Family and friends are also donating bottles to the groups fundraising total.

Also included in this year’s Telemiracle weekend is a two and a half hour online pre-show before the 9 p.m. show kick off. Two local performers will be taking that stage; the Winston Garage Band from Watrous and Lacey Holowaty now from Kelvington.

Both have been invited back to take the prebroadcast countdown after performing at previous Telemiracle.

Vocalist Victoria Goyeneche, of the Winston Garage Band, was unable to perform on the stage with the group in 2017. The band is made up of six students from Watrous’s Winston High School.

She is excited to join the group on stage this time around. “We get to show people our talent from our small town and small school. It’s going to be fun.�

The band is led by teacher, Vladyslav Osatiuk, who tries to drum up opportunities for them to perform as often as they can.

Lake Lenore hosts annual tournament

By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

Hundreds of people descended upon Lake Lenore over the weekend for their annual Wade Weseen Memorial Tournament.

This year’s event was a little different as it was also a pink tournament, which Lake Lenore was required to host after being the recipients of pink jerseys from Humboldt last year.

The tournament was held as part of the pink game movement, which started in Assiniboia in 2009.

The game was the brain-child of Assiniboia basketball coach Al Wandler who saw pink jerseys in a basketball uniform catalogue and liked how unique they looked.

With his father stricken with cancer at the time and Wandler putting an emphasis on having his players give back to the community through volunteer work, he approached the school’s SRC about the idea of purchasing the jerseys for the school to have with the idea of having his team host a pink game to raise money for the Canadian Cancer Society.

The SRC agreed and on Nov. 27 the Rockets hosted their longtime rival, Fillmore, with the school able to raise $1,700.

Wandler hoped the idea would spawn from there with other schools jumping on board but after some time it appeared it would not continue so the following season the Rockets hosted the game again, this time buying pink jersey’s for Fillmore, with the condition that they would then pay it forward to another team so that the pink game would grow.

Today, there are currently more than 18 programs who have become a part of the pink game movement since the beginning, with the movement even entering Alberta as well.

This year Lake Lenore passed the pink movement on to grid 777 rivals Middle Lake.

This year ’s tournament is also special for another reason, as it marked the first full year that both the tournament and the gym are named after Weseen, after Lake Lenore announced the new name of the gym at last year’s event. “Wade would be so happy to see everything that’s going on here. The gym last night was full, you couldn’t get another person in it for our game against Birch Hills. That’s what he liked and it was just a positive game, a very close game, it came down to the last min-

The tournament featured eight teams, including five local teams with Lake Lenore, Middle Lake, Humboldt, Kinistino, and Birch Hills which all brought a lot of fans, as well as Meath Park, Moose Jaw Cornerstone and Kenaston.

Having so many fans was great to see, says Strueby, who notes it is a testament to each of the schools’ programs. “The amount of people here is just incredible this weekend, I mean the place was full from the get-go‌ to get that sup-

port, that says something about their programs as well. Their parents, and their fans, they come and support the kids playing.�

With three of the eight teams at the tournament in the same conference come playoff time, Strueby also noted this is a chance for his team to get some reps in before they see these teams again at conferences. “Come conference time, it starts. The majority of the years, the teams at the conference level you don’t see those games but we’re going to get it right off the get-go.�

For the fourth time in

five years, Kenaston took home the title.

In addition to basketball the tournament also featured a silent auction complete with items donated by local individuals and businesses, which is also great to see, says Streuby. “Thanks for all the support from commun i t y m e m b e r s , s t a ff

members and students and the parents. We’re shrinking every year unfortunately and that means less families and that means less parents and that means less students and so that means less volunteer base,� he said. “That being said the support has not waivered one bit. We’ve had

parents bring extra food his year, we’ve had to cook extra soups and make extra deserts and donated extra stuff for our silent auctions, so the support is just incredible but that’s what it’s all about. That’s the program that Wade and Val Weseen have built here and it’s still going strong.�

“Now at quarterback for the Vikings...”

By Bruce Penton Sports Columnist

Now the National Football League’s fun season begins.

The Super Bowl champ has been decided, a bunch of coaching changes have been made, free agents are trying to decide where to go, the draft of college stars is a couple of months away and … well, football news south of the border never really ends.

One of the most interesting situations is happening in Minnesota, where the Vikings have three quarterbacks, but, while three are currently on the roster, neither Case Keenum, Sam Bradford or Teddy Bridgewater are under contract for next year. How that QB situation will play out will be the focus of attention not only in the great state of Minnesota, but all around the NFL, where one move will have a serious domino effect.

Bridgewater was the young college phenom who almost instantly became the team’s No. 1 QB in 2014. After an 11-win 2015 campaign, he suffered a horrendous knee injury on the eve of the 2016 season and suddenly, the Vikings were looking for someone to fill the gap.

They did so with the acquisition from Philadelphia of Bradford, who won the Heisman trophy as the best college player in 2009 and went No. 1 overall in the 2010 draft to the Rams. Philadelphia had picked him up from the Rams one season earlier before sending him along to the desperate Vikings for a slew of draft picks.

Enter Keenum. The career backup was signed as an emergency replacement while Bridgewater was recuperating but when Bradford went down with a knee injury this past October, Keenum took over, rattled off 11 wins in 14 games and resembled Joe Montana in leading the Vikes to the NFC championship game.

All three are now healthy. But unsigned. So what will the Vikings do? The website SB Nation said the Vikings will likely go all in with Bridgewater, who has youth on his side. If it comes down to Bradford vs. Keenum, the Vikes are likely to keep the healthier one (Keenum) rather than risk the position

to Bradford and his history of wonky knees. Either way, all three quarterbacks will have healthy contracts in 2018. The only unknown will be in which cities they’ll hang their helmets.

Research does not always mean development in ag

“

“

Markets are cylical, which means cropped acres ebb and flow too.

Calvin Daniels Often it seems the investment in research and development is out of step with what the marketplace is suggesting.

But the two are not particularly related if one steps back and takes a look at things as a larger picture.

Take for example a particular farm crop, in this case the basket of pulse crops Canadian Prairie farmers grow.

Looking at the oneyear picture of pulse production and we see that the cares dedicated

to pulses in 2018 are anticipated to decline over 2017, which was already trending lower. In fact, the reduction in acres is expected to be a rather significant one.

Total area for lentils and peas, the primary pulses grown here, had actually grown in recent years having climbed to a little more than 10 million acres in 2016, up some four million from just three years earlier.

The growth was one of the shining examples of diversifying the cropping rotation of the region, and focusing on a significantly different market

from cereal grains, and oilseeds.

The total area declined to about 8.5 million acres — 4.4 million for lentils and 4.1 million for peas — in 2017, although that was still the second largest ever.

Market signals are suggesting the claw back in acres will continue this year, because neither prices nor demand are expected to improve to push farmers back to more typical acreages of the crops.

But markets are cyclical, which means cropped acres ebb and flow too.

Those cycles are not something which research can typically focus much attention on, as work carried out today in terms of developing new varieties ultimately lead to new cropping options a number of years down the road.

That is the same scenario when talking about food service market research and development projects that will benefit farmers and processors in the pulse sector.

Speaking recently at a meeting with Saskatchewan Pulse Growers, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food Lawrence MacAulay announced an investment of over $575,000 to Pulse Canada for food service market research and development projects.

Under the Growing Forward 2, AgriMarketing Program, Pulse Canada will receive $178,500

to explore new markets for pulses and pulse ingredients in China, Eastern Asia, the United States and Canada. An additional investment of $221,680 under the same program will go towards a project that focuses on promoting pulses to the Canadian food service industry.

An investment of $175,721 was also provided to Pulse Canada through the Growing Forward 2, AgriInnovation Program, towards pulse innovation in the Chinese market. The project is expected to help the industry expand the use of pulses in a wide range of Chinese foods and investigate the health benefits of eating pulse snacks.

Not surprisingly Lee Moats, Chair, Pulse Canada Board of Directors was happy with the announcement.

“Collaboration between the Government of Canada and Pulse Canada will help the pulse industry address our challenges and capture the opportunities that pulses offer to farmers and consumers worldwide,” he stated in a prepared release.

The money of course is designed to build toward the future.

Canadian pulse exports are already neared $3.4 billion in 2017, noted the release. It is hoped by supporting the continued growth of the sector it can be a part of the Government of Canada’s trade target of growing agriculture and food exports to $75 billion by 2025.

The short term outlook for pulses may not be bright enough to spur an acreage increase, but dedicating research dollars can help build the sector in the years ahead.

Playoffs underway in high school curling

By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter With Canada’s top curlers engaged in Olympic, Scottie, and Brier competition, high school curlers are hitting the ice for the start of their own trek to a gold medal.

High school curling kicked off this week in Horizon School Division with senior pre-district action on Feb. 5, junior pre-district action on Feb. 6, and senior district competition coming Feb. 9-10.

Junior Wynyard The junior pre-district competition in Wynyard was the most even of the competitions as seven different schools competed for spots at districts, with six of the seven schools securing one spot.

Strasbourg and Raymore earned berths in the boys competition, with Strasbourg emerging as the champions thanks to a perfect 2-0 record, with wins over Lanigan Elementary One and Raymore.

Raymore meanwhile, finished second thanks to a 2-1 record, with wins over Lanigan Elementary Two in the A-Side semi’s, and Lanigan Elementary One in the B-Side final.

The girls competition saw Lanigan Elementary claim the A-Side championship thanks to wins over Ituna Two and Ituna One. Ituna One meanwhile, earned the second spot at districts thanks to a 2-1 record as they posted wins over Archerwill, and Ituna Two. Lanigan High enjoyed the best competition of any of the schools as they sent one team to the pre-district championships and came away with the mixed title thanks to wins over Strasbourg, and Ituna.

Archerwill Two meanwhile, captured the B-Side title and the second of two district berths thanks to a 3-1 record as they knocked off Archerwill One in the B-Side quarters, Strasbourg in the B-Side semi’s, and Ituna in the B-Side finals.

Quill Lake The competition is Quill Lake also saw six teams earn spots to the district championships, but from only four schools.

One of the big winners were Foam Lake who captured each of the two district berths in the boys competition.

Foam Lake One earned the A-Side title thanks to wins over Rose Valley, and Foam Lake Two, while Foam Lake Two captured the B-Side title thanks to a 2-1 record as they picked up an A-Side semifinal win over Wadena, and a B-Side title game victory over Wadena.

The hosts also captured a pair of district berths, with one coming in the girls competition, thanks to wins over Wadena Two and Wadena One, and the other coming in the mixed competition, where they knocked off Watson, and Humboldt Collegiate.

Humboldt meanwhile, earned the second mixed district berth after claiming the B-Side title thanks to a 2-1 record, posting wins over St. Dominic Two in the A-Side semi’s and Watson in the B-Side finals.

The final of the six district berths came in the girls event, where Wadena One captured the B-Side title thanks to a 2-1 record, with wins over Rose Valley, and Wadena Two. Cudworth The pre-district tournament in Cudworth saw the fewest number of schools earn spots at districts.

With just four spots open, due to the event not holding a girls competition, two schools each earned two berths.

Muenster and Watrous each captured two district berths, thanks to an A-Side win and a B-Side win.

Muenster captured the A-Side mixed title thanks to wins over Middle Lake Two, Imperial, and Watrous, and earned the B-Side boys title thanks to a 2-1 record as they beat Bellevue in the A-Side semi’s, lost to Watrous in the ASide final, before beating Bellvue again for the B-Side title.

Watrous meanwhile, won the boys event with wins over Bruno and Muenster, and won the B-Side mixed event with a 2-1 record as they knocked off Middle Lake One in the A-Side semi’s and the B-Side finals.

Senior Lanigan Pre-Districts Foam Lake were the big winners in the pre-district tournament as they brought home three of the six district berths.

Incredibly enough, all three were pre-district titles for Foam Lake as well, as they swept the top step of the podium.

The other three district qualifiers came from three different schools as Strasbourg claimed the boys B-Side title, Muenster the girls B-Side title, and Lanigan the mixed B-Side championship.

Wadena Pre-Districts With just four district berths up for grabs, since there was no mixed draw, Wadena came to play on their home ice earning a tournament high two district berths.

Wadena took home the top prize in the boys competition, and were forced to settle for second in the girls event.

Joining Wadena in the boys event is Humboldt One, who captured the B-Side title, while Quill Lake will join Wadena in the girls event, thanks to a A-Side championship win.

Watrous Pre-Districts The competition in Watrous was very quiet as the tournament featured just a mixed draw.

Watrous Two captured the first of the two available district berths after capturing the A-Side title on their home ice.

Joining Watrous at the district championships will be Imperial, who knocked off Wynyard in the B-Side final.

Foam Lake Districts The district championships in Foam Lake featured nine

schools competing in three different events.

The quartet of Foam Lake, Humboldt, Wadena, and Strasbourg competed in the boys draw, with Humboldt emerging victorious.

It was not easy for Humboldt, who lost to Foam Lake in the opening draw before beating Strasbourg, Foam Lake, and Wadena twice to claim the district title.

Wadena meanwhile, finished second and earned the second of two regional berths.

Unfortunately for Strasbourg and Foam Lake it is the end of the line for each of them, as Strasbourg finished the tournament 0-2, and Foam Lake 1-2, with their loss to Humboldt costing them a regional berth.

The girls draw also featured four schools as Foam Lake, Wadena, Quill Lake, and Muenster took part.

Foam Lake followed the same path as Humboldt did in the boys event, winning the title despite losing to Wadena in their opening match.

Needing to run the table to win districts, Foam Lake did just that beating Quill Lake, Muenster, and Wadena twice.

Wadena meanwhile, finished second and earned the

second of two spots after losing to Foam Lake.

Despite failing to reach the finals, Muenster will also be advancing to regionals, as three girls spots were up for grabs.

Quill Lake’s loss to Foam Lake ended their hopes of moving on to regionals as their season comes to a close.

The final bit of action came in the mixed event, where Foam Lake, Imperial, Watrous, and Lanigan all competed.

For the first and only time at districts, the team that won the A-Side captured the district title as they picked up wins over Imperial, and Lanigan twice to win the district title and claim the first of two regional berths.

With their loss to Foam Lake, Lanigan will also move on to regionals as they picked up wins over Watrous twice.

Unfortunately for Imperial and Watrous they saw their seasons come to a close, as Watrous finished with a 1-2 record, with their B-Side loss to Lanigan eliminating them, and Imperial managing a 0-2 record.

Senior teams will now turn their attention to regionals, with girls and mixed action coming from Foam Lake, and boys action from Wadena, on March 2-3.

Muyres family readies for another brier

By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

Saskatchewan will have a local flavour at this year’s Tim Horton’s Brier in Regina.

After missing out on a trip to the brier last year St. Gregor’s Kirk and Dallan Muyres and the rest of Team Laycock will be returning to the brier, this time on home ice.

“It means a lot. You don’t really realize a lot of the cool things you’re doing when you’re in the midst of your career but this is something we’ll look back on when we’re retired, have kids of our own to say that we went to the Brier four times in five years, that’s pretty special,” noted Kirk.

Team Laycock’s trip to the brier included facing off with an old friend as Laycock’s rink knocked off Colton Flasch’s rink in the provincial final.

Flasch served as Laycock’s second from 2012 until last spring when he announced he would be leaving the rink.

Getting back to the brier is a big deal, noted Kirk, who said missing last year served as a bit of a wake up call for Laycock’s rink.

Team Laycock are headed back to the Tim Horton’s Brier for the fourth time in five years after defeating old friend Colton Flasch of Team Flasch in the provincial final. This year’s brier will have an extremely local feel as the brier will take place in Regina with St. Gregor’s Kirk and Dallan Muyres competing for Saskatchewan and Lyle Muyres coaching the squad.

“So this year going

back into it knowing that maybe we aren’t going to win, maybe we aren’t going to go. When that last rock settled out it was pretty exciting and almost reinvigorating to know that we went through it again,

worked hard and got the result we wanted.”

Of course, this year’s trip is a little more special for Laycock’s rink as they will be playing on home ice in Regina, and while none of the four curlers have any experi-

ence playing in a brier on home ice, Kirk notes he has been to three Saskatchewan brier ’s watching Muenster ’s Bruce Korte in 2000 and 2004 in Saskatoon, and Pat Simmons’ rink in 2006 in Regina.

“We were just kids at the time so we watched them play and saw how the Saskatchewan fans hung on every single shot. They were wooing and cheering as the rock comes down the ice so I think the atmosphere is going to be nuts and we’re going to have to do a good job of really compartmentalizing our energy levels,” noted Kirk, who said it will be important that the guys stay within their routines.

Of course, having the brier in their home province means more support from friends, family, sponsors, and the rest of the province, notes Kirk.

“It’s going to be real cool to have all the people that supported you watching you on T.V. over the years and now they’re going to be there in real life so that’s going to be nice… I think one of the really nice things is having that family and that support system right there with you and I think it will give us a jolt of energy when we’re feeling low or feeling tired.”

Kirk notes he thinks having that support system close by could be a benefit for the team when they get into the later portion of the tournament.

That support could come in handy, notes Kirk who says in addition to family it will be

important for the team to spend time with the fans, which could suck some of the energy out of the guys.

“We’re going to have to make sure we have the time with the fans to make sure that they realize they are appreciated instead of maybe just running away to the hotel room between draws. So we’re going to have to save up our energy where we can but expel it in good spots.”

The brier kicks off March 3, with the championship final March 11, and Kirk says the goals for the team are to be the last team standing on March 11.

“We’re going there to win the Brier. We’ve said it before. We’ve played all the teams there, we’ve beaten all the teams there. We’ve now got some really good experience on our side, we know what to expect going into a Brier,” he said.

“Saskatchewan hasn’t won it in 38 years. We’re going there with one goal and that’s to win it and I think if we play good, and stick to our processes we’ll have a good chance to do it.

Obviously there’s a lot of other teams that are going to play good too but if we get some of the right luck throughout the week I think we’ll be there at the end of the week and hopefully we’ll come home Brier champions.”

The brier will be another family affair for the Muyres’ as Kirk and Dallan’s father Lyle will also be attending the brier as he serves as the coach for Team Laycock.

LeRoy Credit Union was established in 1949 and since then has always had a strong commitment to the community. After all it was the membership and community that started it all back then. LeRoy Credit Union is and autonomous branch that has grown consistently in the past years. That growth is due to the members and their strength and Loyalty to the local Credit Union. In turn the Credit Union is loyal to them and the community and surrounding area. This is shown by supporting the community activities and services not only with cash donations or items but with volunteer time as well. In times of adversary we have pulled together to provide that service again to the area. A most recent example of that is the burning of the LeRoy arena in 2013 but we are now fully operational at our new rink and also have the curling rink back on track providing them funds to get things back up and running. That is no small feat for a town of 490 RGQRNG 6JG ETGFKV WPKQP JCU DGGP VJGTG HTQO VJG UVCTV UWRRQTVKPI VJKU RTQLGEV Ć‚PCPcially and also by being on committee for the building and volunteer fund raising.

Supporting our young people in sport and culture with team jerseys, water bottles and door prizes is important to us. We also support music festivals, Youth Camp sponsorship and sending staff from the credit union to help during camp week which is very rewarding for the staff and camper. We sponsor Grad awards for our future community builders. They are the leaders of tomorrow. As well, we were awarded the LeRoy School Hall of Fame Award, their way of recognizing our support of the School and its students.

Derina Harvey back for Watrous series (Melfort Only)

By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

The Watrous Area Arts Council wrapped up concert number three for their Organization of Saskatchewan Art Councils Concert (OSAC) Series with Derina Harvey taking the stage on Feb. 9 in Watrous.

Laura Foulds, advertising committee head for the performing arts with the Watrous council, says that everyone thoroughly enjoyed the Edmonton based group with their east coast sound.

“I love her powerhouse voice, she’s a lot of fun. She’s got an east coast lilt in her voice and she kept on calling us, ‘her darlins’.”

The bands set list also had people jumping with songs like What Do You Do With A Drunken Sailor, Rattlin’ Bog, and the Saskatchewan favourite, Last Saskatchewan Pirate, as well as original music written by Harvey.

The group has logged 120 performances in the last two years, says their website, including tours around Western Canada, Newfoundland, the

100 Mile House putting on the miles with stop in Wynyard

By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

The Quill Plains Area Arts Council wrapped up concert number three for their Organization of Saskatchewan Art Councils Concert (OSAC) Series with 100 Mile House taking the stage on Feb. 11 in Wynyard.

Marilyn Fredsberg with the OSAC board attended the show and says they are grateful to have award winning talent come to the Quill Plains Area.

100 Mile House is made up of husband and wife duo Peter Stone, who is originally from the United Kingdom, and Denise MacKay who is originally from Alberta.

Also along with the band was the duo’s fourmonth-old son, London, who watched patiently from his carrier as mom and dad took the stage, says Fredsberg.

Besides some classic covers that everyone knew and enjoyed, even their original songs were songs that they could relate to.

“The audience was connected...we could all relate to it. As original as it was, we weren’t lost.

You could still connect to it and appreciate where it came from.”

In total, the 100 Mile House OSAC 2017-2018 tour includes 10 stops throughout the beginning of February with

their first show in Biggar on Feb. 1 and wrapping up their tour on Feb. 13 in Rosthern.

Fredsberg is happy with the opportunity OSAC provides with their concert series with few opportunities available to bring high quality talent to rural Saskatchewan.

“The quality of shows we have coming through OSAC is fantastic. To have this award folk music come to our little towns is beautiful and that’s what OSAC is about.”

Fredsberg says that as long as they have support from the community and people coming out to enjoy live music, the

arts council can continue to bring music to rural Saskatchewan.

Jason Scott hits Humboldt as Neil Diamond

By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

He stood up during karaoke and Neil Diamond came out.

That is how Jason Scott became the American singer-songwriter for his Diamonds are Forever Show.

Scott will be bringing his show to the Humboldt Legion on Feb. 23 and audience participation is not only encouraged but expected, says Scott. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The crowd has a whole list of things that they have to do throughout the performance as well. If Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m out in the audience and everyone is doing what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re supposed to be doing.â&#x20AC;?

Since a fun time is the goal, Scott says that there will also be a dance contest with prizes, clap along songs, and a big follow the bouncing ball sing-a-long type song

near the end of the show. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It turns into one big Neil Diamond party, and I tell the crowd to relate to it like that...thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the way Mr. Diamond wants it and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to do what Neil Diamond wants.â&#x20AC;?

Scott works strictly with Royal Canadian Legions all across Canada saying that they are great venues to play in with his show bringing great interest to the organization.

Interest is something the Legions need, he says.

Scott got his start on the west coast music scene in the late 1970s and even got signed to a record label in 1989 before the death of his friend and music producer, Brian â&#x20AC;&#x153;Too Loudâ&#x20AC;? MacLeod in 1992.

That sent him on a walkabout for a few years since a lot had changed in the years

18023JJ0

photo courtesy of Jason Scott he had been on the music scene, he says.

Out one night with his sister, Scott got on stage to perform some karaoke waiting for a Vancouver Canucks game to start at a local bar.

The crowd was cheering so loudly that Scott thought the Canucks had scored a goal. Looking up at the televisions, Scott saw that the game hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even started yet.

From there, his career as Neil Diamond was born. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I looked down and there was the crowd on their feet, going â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Neil, Neil, Neil.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Then the light went on over my head and I thought, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;oh, maybe the horse has a few runs around the track to go.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?

Working as a tribute artist, Scott is seeing the same kind of work he would have been doing if he would have had his own solo career.

However, he has had some extra adventures as Neil Diamond, including being the only Canadian Neil Diamond tribute act to be included in an American documentary about Neil Diamond tribute artists. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They went all over the world, over to Australia and Europe, and obviously

around the States and into Vegas, etcetera.

But I was the only Canadian they chose.â&#x20AC;?

While the documentary is not ready for release, Scott says they organized a viewing in Las Vegas and a cast concert afterwards, where Scott and the rest of the cast were surprised by a visit from five members of Neil Diamondâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s band. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on stage performing with us.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just the greatest thing. It makes your knees go weak, you turn around and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s half of Neilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s band.â&#x20AC;?

Scott has retained his friendship with other Diamond tribute artists that were in the film and they have said that Diamond thinks of all the tribute artists as his kids, says Scott.

Diamond has said in the past that tributes should not just do him, but to put their own spins on it and have fun with it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done with my show, Diamond Forever A Celebration Of Neil Diamond, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exactly what it is is a celebration of Neil Diamond and his history.â&#x20AC;?

While his shows may be small, Scott says performing is his greatest joy of what he does for a living.

Harvey was born on March 28, 1941 at Watson, SK to Roman and Freida (nee Schreiner) Schiltz. He grew up on the family farm in the Annaheim distr ict, attending Hat Creek School until Grade 8 and then continuing his education at Annaheim for high school. He began employment at Angelstadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and over the next few years worked to become a Journeyman Sheet Metal Worker.

This career took him to many places throughout western Canada to work including Lanigan, Prince George, BC, the Territories and Northern Alberta, Saskatoon and Calgary. On November 7, 1964 Harvey married Anita Hofmann of Muenster and together they raised their four children. Upon both of their retirements and desiring to return to their roots, they moved to Humboldt in June 2010. Harvey was a handyman who was willing to help family and friends with their many projects including building decks and fences, remodelling bathrooms and basements. He enjoyed being outside doing yardwork or traveling to a lake to take in some fishing. Harvey was an avid reader and enjoyed music, singing in a choir for a number of years. He was a member of the Knights of Columbus and while in Humboldt was a busy volunteer at the Good Neighbour Store. Harvey will be lovingly remembered by his wife Anita Schiltz of Humboldt; their four children and five grandchildren: Tim (Angele) Schiltz and daughter Amanda (Colin) and expectant great grandchild Dahl, all of Chestermere, AB; Colette Schiltz (Dennis Page) and children Rebecca Page and Braydon Page, all of Saskatoon; Janet (Norm) Decoste of Calgary, AB; and Gina Schiltz and children Jack Ritchie and Callum Ritchie, all of Calgary; brother Howard (Lucille) Schiltz of Rosetown; members of the Hofmann family: George Hoffman of Regina, Adele (Ron) Brons of Saskatoon, Roger (Mary) Hofmann and Ralph Hofmann, all of Muenster, Marie (Tom) Kurjata of Saskatoon, Noreen (Wayne) Strueby of Humboldt and Lorna (Drew) Britz of Saskatoon; and numerous nieces and nephews. Harvey was predeceased by his parents, Roman and Freida Schiltz; parents-in-law George and Margaret Hofmann; sister Ruth (Willard) Ehalt; and sister-in-law Frances Hofmann. The Prayer Service for Harvey was held on Wednesday, February 7, 2018 at 7:30 p.m. led by Nestor Trach and the Funeral Mass was offered on Thursday, February 8, 2018 at 10:30 a.m. celebrated by Fr. Michael Yaremko and Fr. Daniel Muyres, OSB. Both services were held at St. Augustine Roman Catholic Church, Humboldt. Interment followed in St. Augustine Parish Cemetery. Memorial Donations in Harveyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memory may be made to the Humboldt District Hospital Foundation or St. Augustine Parish.

Tips to pay off student debt early Recent college graduates may be entering the job market with degrees in tow, but many also are leaving school with sizable amounts of student loan debt. According to a 2017 report from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, student loan debt rose for the eighteenth consecutive year, while Debt.org reports that student debt in the United States totaled $1.4 trillion in 2017. Canadian students are not faring much better than

their American counterparts, owing an average of $28,000 after four years according to the Canadian Federation of Students.

Student loan debt is a heavy burden that has short- and long-term affects on borrowers. Sizable student loan debts may affect young professionals’ ability to support themselves, while the Federal Reserve Bank of New York reports that such debt has contributed to a decline in the housing market, as

fewer college graduates can afford to buy homes while still in their 20s.

The notion of paying off their student loans before they reach maturity may seem implausible to some borrowers. But there are a handful of ways for adults with sizable student debts to do just that. Ř 0DNH PRUH IUHTXHQW SD\PHQWV 0DQ\ KRPHRZQHUV SD\ WKHLU PRUWgages off early by making biweekly payments. Doing so means they will make 26 half-payments, or 13 full payments, each year as opposed to the 12 full payments made by homeowners who pay on a monthly schedule. The same approach can be applied to student loans. That extra annual payment each year can gradually chip away at loan balances, helping borrowers pay loans off before they reach maturity. Ř 3ULRULWL]H SD\LQJ RII KLJK LQWHUHVW ORDQV 0DQ\ VWXGHQWV ƓQDQFH their educations by taking out multiple loans.

Borrowers will still need to make minimum payments on other loans, but any extra money they intend to pay each month should go toward pay-

Some lenders may reduce interest rates for borrowers who agree to certain terms, such as signing up to receive e-statements or enrolling in automatic payment programs in which money is deducted directly from a borrowers’ bank account on the same day each month.
