One of the final moments of the celebration featured Englefeld’s school choir perform a rendition of the song “Perfect,” before the curtains opened up and the rest of the students joined in.

“What began as a trickle became a river of tears.”

Knafelc’s career started in Englefeld in 1982 at the old oneroom cottage school.

That fall Knafelc moved to the larger Englefeld School, where she taught grades 5 to 9.

Knafelc remained at Englefeld School until 1989, when she moved to Watson School.

In 1998, with Englefeld looking to form their own school division, Knafelc moved back to Englefeld School, forming the “original seven” in the new Englefeld Protestant Separate School Division (EPSSD).

Knafelc remained a teacher at Englefeld until 2015, when she was hired as the school’s new principal following the retirement of Charlie Biemans.

Biemans was another of the “original seven” teachers who returned to Englefeld following the creation of their new school division, and has been teaching alongside Knafelc for more than Continued on page 2

By Christopher Lee Reporter The halls of Englefeld School are going to feel quite different come September, with the announcement that Englefeld’s principal Patsy Knafelc will be retiring.

Englefeld School and the community of Englefeld came together on May 18 to celebrate Knafelc and her 36-year teaching career.

The celebration featured students and staff from Englefeld School, as well as members of the community, many of whom had been taught by or had their children taught by Knafelc.

“If you can make a difference in one life that’s what matters.

And when I see all these people here today and know that I’ve made a difference in a life somewhere along the way, that’s quite a legacy to leave behind,” noted Knafelc.

The celebration also included video tributes to Knafelc, which gave the students a platform to talk about their retiring principal, many in a funny way.

“Ninety per cent of those videos probably captured who I am.

The little bit of humour, the love of dancing, the safe and caring and wanting kids to be the best they can be were all wrapped up

Trappers laud changes to pest control program

By Becky Zimmer Editor The Canadian and Saskatchewan governments have announced recent changes to the Beaver Control Program under the Canadian Agricultural Partnership and the Pest Biosecurity Program.

Under the new change to the act, only licensed trappers can collect the

20 years.

Biemans says Knafelc has been “awesome” over the years, saying she will do whatever needs to be done.

“If you give her a class to teach, she’ll pick it up.”

Deanna Miskolczi has been a member of EPSSD since its inception as well, serving as both a board member and board chair, and says it has been a pleasure working alongside Knafelc.

“Patsy has always been a teacher who has lots of energy, very enthusiastic and really cares about the kids and wants to do what’s best for them… We just wish her

bounty on beaver tails brought into RM offices as a way to “focus on humane removal of beavers,” according to a Saskatchewan government press release.

This is a change that the Saskatchewan Trappers Association (STA) have been pushing for, for a long time, says Ryan Demchynski, STA media relations coordinator.

The Saskatchewan government, along with Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities (SARM), announced up to $450,000 per year in funding in a May 8 press release.

Demchynski was at meetings with the Saskatchewan government, and SARM present as one of the stakeholders, he said, and this was one of

all the best and thank her for her years of service.”

With the school year winding down, staff at Englefeld have just a few more weeks left of Knafelc’s daily presence in the halls. Come September, her absence will be felt, says staff member Jeff Burton.

“That’s a big footprint.

The saying is always shoes but… it’s a foot print that’s going to be tough to fill but we’re going to work our best.

She’s brought together a good staff and we’re going to do our best to honour that legacy that she’s set forth.”

With retirement on the agenda, Biemans, who retired only to return to teaching part time, says the key for Knafelc will be to do what she loves.

“Patsy loves teaching and she loves kids and I can see her coming back part time if there’s a job available. But she just has to learn to relax and appreciate her family and grandkids and travel whenever she gets a chance.”

Knafelc admits she is not sure how retirement is going to go, but says summer vacation starts in July.

“I plan to enjoy it and I will allow what happens to happen and then I’m just going to follow the path where I’m led… I’ve got lots of things that I’d like to do but I’m not sure where that journey’s supposed to go right now.

But I’ll find it.”

many recommendations from the STA. “Beavers are and remain a furbearing animal important to the fur trade. Trappers are much more efficient and ethical at harvesting beavers and should be the only group allowed to,” he said.

Because of the high cost of labour and low cost of return on beavers, many trappers were not trapping beaver, he says.

Part of STA’s mandate is to educate trappers in the most humane and

up to date methods of harvest, he says.

Being trained by the STA gives new trappers the best trapping education. After students take the trapping course, they are well versed in all the trapping laws and regulations, know the best methods, and most importantly, follow the most humane methods to sustainably harvest fur.

“The STA and the trapping course show students how to make the most use of the beaver rather than

to just cut the tail off to collect bounty. All parts of the beaver are utilized.”

RM of Humboldt Reeve, Larry Ries, says they will be once again participating in the Beaver Control Program because beavers are a problem in the area.

The RM of Humboldt reported 105 beaver tails brought into the office in 2017. The office pays out $30 per tail with half of the pay out reimbursed by the Saskatchewan government.

LeRoy students spend day at Syncotron

By Becky Zimmer Editor Students from LeRoy School had a rare chance to become scientists during a trip to the Canadian Light Source in Saskatoon on May 16 with the Light Source Student Experience.

Sixteen students from grades 9-10 divided into four groups to perform experiments on fruit peels, where they experiemented on how matter reacts with light, says the Canadian Light Source press release.

Students were enthusiastic about the project, says teacher Danielle Bilodeau, and that was evident in their extensive lab reports.

“Usually they are short and sweet and simple,” she said, “but I gave them these projects and, because they know they are doing experiments with scientists, they wrote paragraphs and paragraphs and did all sorts of background research before we came.”

Education program lead at the Light Source, Tracy Walker, says this is a way for students to get hands-on experience in the lab, while tying in with the curriculum.

“That way, they understand what they are learning in the classroom in a real world context,” Walker said.

Even with all of the

rules of the lab, grade 10 student, Cassidy Duguid had fun with her experiment.

This was a great way for students to do real science, says Bilodeau, with plenty of opportunities in school to do art and sport but few to explore the science world.

Work is not done for the LeRoy students with the project continuing back in the classroom where they will complete their lab reports based on their data analysis.

In 2017-2018, LeRoy School was one of 10 Saskatchewan schools with 150 students total participating in the program.

Carlton Trail unveils mural at Punnichy location The much anticipated mural at Punnichy’s Carlton Trail College’s Four Winds Learning Centre was unveiled on May 23. The new centre opened its doors on Dec. 8, 2017 with an indigenous mural a future project for the centre. “Our goal was to ensure local Indigenous heritage and spiritual beliefs were portrayed in a way that would inspire our learners,” said Shelley Romanyszyn-Cross, Carlton Trail College president and chief executive officer in a recent press release. Elder Shirley McNab described the symbolism of the mural with images meant to encourage every person who walks through the doors. “The centre medallion represents education and shows an Elder teaching a young one.

The eagle represents pride, courage and truth. The bear represents bravery. The wolf signifies teamwork.

The buffalo symbolizes strength and the ability to survive.” McNab added, “The four seasons, four colours, four directions, four winds and the four surrounding First Nation communities are also represented.” photo courtesy of Carlton Trail College

St. Peter’s joins municipal alliance

By Becky Zimmer Editor The Mid Sask Municipal Alliance (MSMA) has a new partnership to add to their community network.

The RM of St. Peter has joined the network as an associate member.

Director of Operations

and Planning, Celine Favreau, says they sent out 20 letters of associate membership to neighbouring RMs to become an introductory part of the network.

“We’re on a campaign this year to invite (RMs).

I’ve been out to most of their municipal meetings

in February and March.“ If you are not on the map when business comes calling to the region, RMs do miss out on things, says RM of St. Peter Reeve Glenn Ehalt.

There have been times in the past where they have missed out on opportunities, he says, and

a partnership with the MSMA and their network should alleviate some of that, he says.

The more they can work together, the more likely of getting something accomplished, he says.

“Standing still doesn’t even seem to be an option. If you’re not grow-

ing, you’re losing ground it seems.”

Bringing more businesses in means more opportunities for jobs.

Rural Saskatchewan is a great place to live so promoting that is important, says Ehalt.

“If anyone is looking, we should be on the map

with them.”

What the MSMA is trying to do is increase their numbers and capacity, says Favreau.

“The more municipalities we have participating in the investment attraction strategy, the more attractive the region is.”

There were reports of light frost but damage is expected to be minimal as most crops have not yet emerged. With the drying topsoil and lack of rainfall, some producers have delayed the seeding of smaller seeded crops such as canola.

Rainfall would be beneficial to pastures and hay land in the region as growth has been limited.

Strong winds, warm temperatures and little rainfall are drying many fields up in the region.

This is up from 24 per cent last week and is ahead of the fiveyear (2013-2017) seeding average of 48 per cent for this time of year. Earlyseeded crops are emerging and some pastures are finally starting to develop.

Much of the region received welcomed rainfall that will help crops germinate and establish.

The northeast made significant strides last week as seeding progress nearly tripled. Seventy-seven per cent of the crop is now in the ground, up from 28 per cent last week. Thanks to optimal field conditions, the region is well ahead of the five-year (2013-2017) seeding average of just 38 per cent for this time of year.

Some fields that were previously wet have dried enough for them to be seeded for the first time in a few years.

Time is now for Jays to call up Vlad Guerrero Jr. How long can the Toronto Blue Jays keep Vladimir Guerrero, Jr., down on the farm?

That could be a question that goes on all summer, or until the Jays trade third baseman Josh Donaldson and fi nally call up the 19-year-old son of the former Expo with the same name.

When he does arrive in The Show, Guerrero, Jr., will be the youngest player in Major League Baseball and if hype was cash, he’d be rolling in dough.

A Canadian, by virtue of being born in Montreal while his dad was patrolling the outfield for the late, lamented Expos, Guerrero, Jr., has been ripping up the minor leagues and legions of Jays’ fans, eager to see the future today,

Bruce Penton are calling for the Jays to bring him up to the big club.

While scouts say Guerrero, Jr.’s bat is definitely major-league calibre, some of them say his defensive work is still minor league. So what? Toronto happens to play in a league that uses the designated hitter. They could bring him up, let him loose in A.L. batters’ boxes, and work slowly through the rest of this season and over the

winter on his glove work.

Does Hollywood care that Meryl Streep might be a bad cook?

T h ro u g h M a y 1 8 , Guerrero, Jr. — listed as the No. 2 prospect in all of MLB and somewhat of a legend in New Hampshire, where he’s ripping the cover off the ball for the AA Fisher Cats — was batting .407 with 24 extra-base hits, including seven homers, and 41 RBI, in just 37 games.

Great plate patience, too, with as many walks as he has strikeouts.

A story on deadspin. com in mid-May was headlined: “Please Just Call Up Vladimir Guerrero Jr., He’s Too Good For The Minor Leagues.”

So why aren’t the Blue Jays calling their travel agent and making flight plans for the young phenom to shore

up their roster? The Jays’ braintrust isn’t talking about it much, but they probably just don’t want to be accused of rushing Guerrero, Jr., into the big leagues, which might prematurely force their hand on Donaldson’s future.

When Guerrero, Jr., finally does get the call, another son of a former big leaguer, Bo Bichette (remember Dante Bichette?) might not be far behind, although he may need one more year of minor-league seasoning.

Both are starring with the Fisher Cats, which, by the way, is a member of the weasel family.

C’mon, Jays. Quit being weasels. Get at least one of those kids up to the big club.

• Comedy writer Alex Kaseberg, after Russian president Vladimir

Putin, 65, scored seven goals in a pickup hockey game: “Now, I don’t want to say the goalie did not try to stop Vlad’s shots, but I’ve seen Kardashians reach harder to pick up a book.”

• Ryan Herrington of golfworld.com, on Jason Dufner’s putting woes at the Players: “His struggles over short putts had us covering our eyes like we were watching a Friday the 13th movie.”

• Norman Chad of the Washington Post, on Twitter: “Jerry West dribbling should be replaced as the NBA logo by LeBron James with both arms extended questioning a non-call.”

• Comedy guy Brad Dickson, on Twitter: “State track meet is different these days. Times are slower because the kids run the 100 metres

while taking cellphone photos of themselves.”

• Dickson again: “Sports gambling may soon be legal. Millions of Americans will abandon playing the Powerball Lottery to bet against the Cleveland Browns.”

• RJ Currie of sportsdeke.com: “B.C. Lions coach Wally Buono, 68, said he’ll be ‘more reckless’ on the sidelines.

Not saying the guy is conservative, but reckless to him is pacing while carrying scissors.”

• Currie again: “The Toronto Raptors fired bench boss Dwane Casey two days after he was named NBA coach of the year. It’s the fastest fall from grace for a Casey since the Mudville nine.”

Hope for Bill C-49 to help rail system When it comes to farming there has always been a generous amount of hope and finger crossing involved.

Farmers hope frosts in the spring and fall will stay away until crops are grown and harvested.

Throughout the year they hope the rains will come when needed, that it doesn’t get too hot, and that hailstorms stay away.

And then there are the hopes that grain and oilseed prices will be good, and that the transportation system will operate without glitches so they can access the best markets in a timely fashion.

In recent years the transportation system, or more specifically the rail system, has not worked glitch free. In fact, it has been a choke point at times in terms of getting Prairie grain from

Calvin Daniels the farms to the ports.

This has caused shipping delays which have hurt farmers in their efforts to realize the best prices.

Farmers have been impacted by rail planning and performance issues since 2013/14, and the poor performance of the railways in the spring of 2018 has again resulted in problems such as higher on-farm inventories, lost sales, and increased demurrage costs.

The recent issues are

not the first which have had farmers questioning how the rail companies handle grain.

The situation has been one where the federal government has been looked to in the past to smooth the relationship or, more accurately, to create a structured rule set which in essence forces rail companies to do a better job of handling grain.

That process continued recently with the recent passage of Bill C-49, which amended the Canada Transportation Act. “The new legislation includes requirements for railways to disclose data and increase transparency on performance metrics, service and rates.

It is hoped that these transparency initiatives, along with the potential

for reciprocal penalties in railway service agreements, will improve accountability and system performance,” detailed a release from the Saskatchewan Wheat Development Commission (Sask Wheat).

“Bill C-49 also provides for the maintenance of the Maximum Revenue Entitlement (MRE), which ensures railway profitability while protecting farmers from excessive rail freight rates. This was a key demand from farm groups. The new bill also introduces long-haul railway inter-switching to 1,200 km, or half of the Canadian haul, which has some potential to increase competition between railways.”

The situation is one which has had a range of grain commodity and

Prairie farm groups lobbying for changes.

Bill C-49 is essentially the federal government’s response to the lobbying effort.

“The passage of Bill C-49 is the culmination of a lot of hard work by producers, farm organizations, shippers and federal government officials,” said Laura Reiter, Sask Wheat Chair in their release. “The provisions that modernize the movement of grain will improve the relationship between farmers and those in the handling and transportation system and will provide the buyers of Canadian grain greater confidence in our ability to deliver the crops they need.”

The Bill may already be having an impact as Canadian National Railway (CN) announced

that it would be purchasing 1000 new generation hopper cars to bolster shipping capacity.

“We knew that Bill C-49 was a strong piece of legislation and now we have the proof that it truly will help modernize the shipping industry,” said Grain Growers of Canada (GGC) Vice President Art Enns from Winnipeg in a GGC release. “Grain farmers can take comfort today in knowing that our hard work in pressing for the Bill will pay off through a balanced and robust rail system.”

Clearly there is hope in the farm sector Bill C-49 will have a positive impact on grain transportation, but past efforts have always ultimately come up short, and only time will tell if this effort has gotten it right.

X-ray upgrades coming

By Becky Zimmer Editor Five hospitals from across the province are getting an x-ray equipment upgrade from film to digital, including four local hospitals.

The Saskatchewan Health Authority is in the process of digitizing x-ray equipment for Lanigan, Wadena, Watrous and Wynyard hospitals, according to a Saskatchewan Government press release.

Digitizing x-rays equipment means faster sharing between physicians and specialists across the province with-

out having to transport film.

The Saskatchewan government provided funding for the project with $100,000 going to each site as well as hospital foundations contributing $100,000 of their own funds for the project.

Scott Livingstone, Saskatchewan Health Authority CEO, says that this is an important technological investment into Saskatchewan healthcare.

“As one organization, our intent is to improve systems so employees and physicians can focus on what they do best,

which is patient care and support,” he said in a government press release. “By improving access to medical imaging, we are on the right path of ensuring our province’s hospitals are able to coordinate their services to ensure patients receive high-quality, timely health care, closer to home.”

Rural and Remote Health Minister Greg Ottenbreit, said strong community support helped local hospitals reach those goals for better healthcare and specialized needs in the province.

Sarcan celebrates provincial awards

By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor Sarcan honoured many of their Saskatchewan locations with the Sarcan 2018 Customer Service Awards.

Melfort and Watrous Sarcans were honoured as awards were given out during the Sarcan’s annual Leadership Training on May 1-2 during the evening banquet. Melfort took home the customer service award for large depots, while Watrous took home the accuracy award for medium locations.

Melfort was judged on the 360 experience they give their customers, says Sydney Smith with Sarc/Sarcan Recycling Communications. From start to finish, depot winners for this category

offer a great customer service experience from the time customers are greeted at the door to the time they walk out with money in hand.

Awards are given out based on secret shopper experiences, says Smith.

“It’s not something that is recognized by their regional manager or the head office. It’s all completely random testing. It means they’re not only doing a good job in our eyes but they’re doing a good job in the eyes of the customer as well.”

The awards are province wide with 72 Sarcan locations across Saskatchewan.

The awards give Sarcan the ability to see the province as a whole, says Smith, and understand what the depots are do-

ing to make customers count.

“Sarcan is really similar to a hospital or a library in the sense that it’s a public service and our customers are anyone from all walks of life. We want to make sure they are treated fairly and with respect.”

Many more depots were awarded for the pride they take in their locations.

The awards are a way to recognize that, says Sarcan’s Director of Collections Sean Collins in a press release regarding the awards.

“These awards are an excellent way to recognize depots who go the extra mile to keep their depots clean and provide top-notch customer service.”

The Preachers Message Concerning Tragedies re: Coltan Bushie Case, Humbolt Bus Crash, and Suicide

It could be anywhere because tragedies are recurring continually in our world. They are truly heartbreaking; devastating to all the lives affected, beyond words. My tears, sorrow and sympathy is there along with all those grieving.

But I am constrained to speak – to do otherwise would be a misrepresentation of the God of the scriptures whom I love and serve.

We must allow God to speak and He does through the written word which we have as our guide to every occasion in life. The Word is the light to enable us to see, a lamp for our path.

We find Jesus then in the precincts of the temple in Jerusalem addressing the crowds concerning two incidents where multiple lives were lost as written by Luke in the 13th chapter versus 1-5. The first incident concerned worshippers in the temple attending their daily sacrifices who the Romans thought were insurrectionists and killed them while worshipping. The other incident concerned workers building a water tower on the wall for an aqueduct which collapsed and killed them.

The general public, just like now, asked why?

Here we need to hear the One who made us, who knows us better than we know ourselves. The One who said every hair on your head is numbered.

Listen to what He has to say.

What he said, and I am paraphrasing, “Do you think these fellow countrymen were worse sinners then the others?

I tell you, no. But unless you repent you will all like wise perish – so how does He answer? He answers with a question. Listen with what authority He speaks. He answers with a question, as this is a very serous matter.

We face tragedies in life continually, we must face them, I say it very humbly. Life is full of tragedies, accidents, sudden deaths caused by who knows by how many scenarios, as we see in the scripture portion above. Mischief, devotion to a cause, taking one’s life, heart attacks, etc. etc.

Is it Judgment? Absolutely not. What is it then? I believe He gives the answer.

He says we live in a fallen world. We need to realize this. It’s not the bad things or even the good things we’ve done. It happened before any of us were ever born. What happened is Sin entered into the world, an outside alien force way bigger than any of us, and it entered by temptations to gratify self. In other words disobedience to God’s Commandment, that is, “do not eat the fruit from the tree of Good and Evil” and as the first man and woman, as representatives of the human race, sin entered because of disobedience to God’s Command, and as a result, in Adam, we all die. So what do I have to do? Well, He tells us in one word, He says, Repent! What simplicity.

What does he mean? I believe it means, turn around, have a radical change of mind about God. What about God, you might ask? Consider Him. You might say I don’t see anything. Now that He has your attention and if you sincerely want to look with all your heart He will reveal Himself.

Right here I will add, just the fact that you turned, is the sure sign He empowered your heart and your mind to look.

6 ECT Friday, June 1, 2018

Are you following? Do you believe that? You have to know as a sinner and this is the real tragedy, you are totally spiritually dead to Him. He has to awaken you and only His power in the Holy Spirit can do it. You can not do that on your own. He has to do it. It’s His Gift to you. You need to believe it.

Believe what: how to be delivered from this darkness because it is this darkness we have all been born into.

God is Just, He is Holy – and He can never be moved. His word stands.

Don’t argue with what He reveals to you. Remember that first disobedience. That’s me, that’s you!

It is appointed unto man once to die, and then judgment. How can I get right before a Just and Holy God; to be where He intended me to be? God has the answer and again only one answer. That answer is through Jesus Christ the Son whom he sent to deliver those who believe. That He was crucified for my sin and my sins as a result.

But the real proof that my sins have been eternally forgiven is that He Rose again purchasing redemption for His people. Do you believe it? Has God empowered you to believe it? Then confess that you are a sinner and ask Him to forgive your sins, and believe that He has forgiven them, then invite Him to come into your heart and trust Him as Lord and Saviour. Then demonstrate this truth by being baptized and telling others and keep on thanking Him everyday. He will confirm His presence in you to empower you to life. Eternal Life.

John 5:24 – Jesus speaking: I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, the person whose ears are open to My words (who listens to my message) and believes and trusts in and clings to and relies on Him who sent Me (possesses now) Eternal Life and he does not come into judgment (does not incur sentence of judgment) will not come under condemnation but he has already passed over out of death into life.

So in closing, the answer to all perplexing tragedies is a question. Have you repented? Do you know that all those who refuse to repent condemn themselves, they perish. That’s the real death, after the body is separated from the soul into the grave, and after that, Judgment. Separated from God’s presence and Mercy and Grace to forgive forever. Remember physical death comes suddenly, we never truly expect it but it comes.

So, therefore, the Preacher must speak. And that message is Repent, Believe the Gospel. (the good news) of the Kingdom of God. A new spiritual birth to see and enter His rule over your life. That’s a statement of fact.

I trust you will do it today.

If you have any inquiries or comments, I would like to hear from you. If God has spoken to your heart and you have more questions or need prayer, I would like to hear from you. You can contact me.

Red Sox finish week 1-4

By Christopher Lee Reporter After enjoying more than a week away from the diamond, the Muenster Red Sox returned with a busy week in front of them as they played five games in five days.

It was a tough week for the Red Sox as they managed just one win in those five contests, and were outscored 41-17 in the process.

RED SOX VS. CUBS After holding an opponent to fewer than six runs for the first time all season in their last contest, the Red Sox took a step back against the Saskatoon Cubs as they fell 9-2 on May 23 in Saskatoon.

Cody Bauml and Carter Burkart did the damage for the Red Sox as the pair combined to hit 1-for-3, with two runs batted in and one run scored.

Rylan Marianchuk was charged with the loss on the mound for the Red Sox after surrendering six runs, four earned, on nine hits and one walk, while striking out two over five innings of work.

Nicholas Silcox came on in relief of Marianchuk, and the Carrot River native allowed three runs, one earned, on three hits and two walks, while striking out none in one inning of work.

The contest got off to a tough start for the Red Sox as they gave up a run in the first inning.

After tying the score in the top of the third, the Cubs responded scoring one in the third and one more in the fourth to lead 3-1 through three innings.

The Red Sox managed to cut the deficit back to one with a run in the top of inning five, but a trio in the bottom of five and three more in the bottom of six sealed the fate for the Red Sox, who lost 9-2.

out five over five innings of work.

Silcox came on in relief of Froehlich and allowed six runs, all earned, on seven hits, and one walk, while striking out two over 1.2 innings.

Rylan Elmy got the last out for the Red Sox, throwing one pitch as a White Sox runner was caught stealing.

Despite the loss, it was the Red Sox who drew first blood, as they scored three times in the second inning to take an early 3-0 lead.

Unfortunately for the Sox, they were unable to maintain the lead as the White Sox exploded scoring singles in innings three, four, and six, and a trio in five.

Two Red Sox runs in the bottom of the sixth inning kept the squad close, as they trailed 6-5 heading to the final inning.

That was as close as the Red Sox would come, as they gave up five runs in inning seven to lose 11-5.

RED SOX VS. WHITE SOX – GAME 2 Another ugly seventh inning spelled disaster for the Red Sox, as they gave up seven runs in the final inning to lose 11-0.

Marianchuk and Burkart managed the only two hits of the contest for the Red Sox as they combined to hit 2-for-4 with one walk.

Aaron Aquino was charged with the loss on the mound for the Red Sox after allowing four runs, all earned, on four hits and three walks, while striking out three.

Josh Doepker came on in relief of Aquino and the Annaheim native surrender seven runs, all earned,

on five hits, and six walks, while striking out three.

While the Red Sox suffered a lopsided loss, the contest was an even affair, save for the third and seventh innings, where the White Sox did all of their damage scoring four and seven runs respectively.

RED SOX VS. WOLFPACK – GAME 1 In what has become an irregular occurence, the Red Sox enjoyed an excellent contest from their pitching staff to pick up a 2-1 win over the Regina Wolfpack on May 27.

The Red Sox had surrendered double digits in runs five times in their first nine games, and had managed to keep the number below six just once.

McGrath was on the mound for the Red Sox, and the 17-year-old was excellent picking up his first win of the season, as he shut down the Wolfpack attack, allowing one run, with none earned, on six hits, and two walks while striking out three over seven innings.

Offensively it was Froehlich who did the damage, as he finished 1-for-3 with two runs batted in.

The Wolfpack drew first blood against the Red Sox scoring once in the top of inning three, but the home side responded with a pair in the bottom half.

That was all the run support McGrath would need as he shut the Wolfpack down the rest of the way to earn a 2-1 win.

RED SOX VS. WOLFPACK – GAME 2 A four run seventh inning spelled disaster for

the Red Sox as they blew an 8-5 lead in the bottom of the seventh to lose 9-8.

Marianchuk was charged with the loss on the mound for the Red Sox, allowing four runs, two earned, on three hits, and two walks, while striking out one over 1.2 innings, in the blown save.

Drew Bauml got the start for the Red Sox, and the second year Sox pitcher was solid pitching five strong innings, allowing five runs, with none earned, on three hits, and five walks, while striking out four.

Huls, Froehlich, and Doepker did all of the damage offensively for the Red Sox as the trio combined to hit 7-for-11 with seven runs batted in and two runs scored.

The first three innings saw the teams trade runs as the Red Sox scored singles in the first and third innings, while the Wolfpack responded with a single of their own in the second.

T h e Wo l f p a c k a n swered with a trio in the fourth to take a 4-2 lead.

Four Red Sox runs in the top of the fifth, and one Wolfpack run in the bottom half of the inning gave the Red Sox a 6-5 lead.

Two more in the sixth extended the lead to 8-5.

The Wolfpack pushed back in the bottom half of the inning and were rewarded as they cut the Red Sox lead to one with a pair of runs. An error by the Red Sox second baseman gave the Wolfpack a pair of runs, as they escaped with a 9-8 win.

ROBILLARD: Sylvia Nov. 14, 1941 - May 21, 2018 Sylvia Marie Robillard, 76 years, of Humboldt passed away on Monday, May 21, 2018 at Humboldt District Hospital.

Sylvia was born November 14, 1941 in Spalding, SK to Henry and Helen (Schwartz) Delwisch.

She was the third of seven children. Sylvia spent much of her growing up years trying to prove to her older brothers that whatever they could do she could do, which got her into some dangerous situations. In 1962 she joined the army, and was enlisted for about 2 years during which time she took nurses training. After being released from the army she worked as a personal care nurse for a short time in Bermuda. From there she returned to Saskatchewan and got into bartending, until 1971 when she moved to the west coast. There she worked for several years at a special care home for the handicapped. In 1981 she married Ernie Robillard and moved back to Archerwill where she had grown up. They resided there until 2006 when they moved to Humboldt and took on the caregiver role for her 91 year old mother, and her brother Dave who had Parkinson’s and could no longer live alone. In 2009 Ernie passed away suddenly, leaving Sylvia as the sole caregiver. In 2013 Dave moved into long term care, and a few weeks later Mom passed away leaving her with only herself in her big house. She continued to look after Dave’s affairs until he passed away in 2016. The role of care giver was her true calling, and she was happiest when she had someone to care for. She cared for many people along the way, some long term and some just a short time. Sylvia loved her big house of the last 12 years as there was always room for her family to stay when they came to visit. Many family gatherings were hosted in her home. Sylvia had no children of her own, but was a wonderful auntie to her nieces and nephews and referred to by some as their surrogate mother. She had a special gift for making every child who crossed her path feel that they were the most precious person in her life. Sylvia was interested in the details of all the lives of her family, both immediate and extended, and all her friends as well.

BERNHARD: Hedwig March 27, 1925 - May 15, 2017 If roses grow in heaven, Lord please pick a bunch for us, Place them in our Mother’s arms and tell her they’re from us.

Tell her we love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile.

Because remembering her is easy, We do it every day, but there’s an ache within our hearts that will never go away.

Lovingly remembered by her family.

PITZEL: Alois Although the world and land keeps changing, life still moves on.

But from our hearts, Alois will never be gone.

It’s been 15 years of missing you here and on the farm.

We often recall the many things that made you smile: Spring planting, roosters crowing, new born calves, and the wheat fields blowing.

The early morning sunrise, the first robin in spring, hilling potatoes and watching the grandkids playing in the bale stack.

May you & Kevin enjoy this spring watching from heaven above.

Missing You: Johanna, your children and grandkids.

Happy Birthday Dr. Dave!

3 score and... well... 60 years ago, Marilyn and Ed Martinuk had an adorable, bouncing baby boy...

Well, eventually that baby grew, and he grew, and he grew until he was all grown up with a lovely wife, 3 darling children and 1 beautiful grand-baby of his own. While his family sends him birthday love spread from all the lands, he could still use some felicitous greetings from the community he holds so dear. So if you happen to see Dr. Dave sometime over the next week, be sure to wish him the happiest of birthdays!

N a t h a n Wo u r m s picked up the win on the mound for the Bisons pitching five strong innings, before being relieved in favour of Riley Weiter, who came on to pitch the final two innings.

After enjoying a night

off the Bisons returned to action May 24 when they took on the Armadillos at Diefenbaker Park.

Unfortunately for the Bisons, after starting the season with wins in each of their first four contests, the boys from Bruno were handed their first loss, falling 7-6 in a back and forth affair.

After a short break the Merchants returned to the field to take on the Saskatoon WD Plastics Diamondbacks U23.

The Merchantsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; offence exploded against the young Diamondbacks, as the Merchants scored 13 runs, but much like the first contest, the Merchants could not pull out the close win as they
