Neepawa Natives barbecue a success

By Eoin Devereux The Neepawa Banner The Neepawa Natives hosted a barbecue in the parking lot of the Neepawa Co-op Food Store on Friday, July 17.

Front office staff and volunteers with the Manitoba Junior Hockey League club served hot dogs and drinks to the public, while also jumpstarting the annual season ticket drive.

About a half dozen new regular season packages were sold during the day.

Neepawa Natives general manager Myles Cathcart said it was a very good afternoon.

“It’s a good public relations event for the team.

We sold a lot of hot dogs and we sold a few season ticket packages, so that was a good thing. It’s important to show that the team is involved in the community, partnering with Co-op, it was a real positive experience,” stressed Cathcart. “Throughout the afternoon, lots of people stopped in, making comments on the team. Saying it was nice to see the board members getting out there in this manner. We represent the community.”

Neepawa Co-op Grocery Store manager Dan Lange said the business was

very happy to be a part of the hockey team’s local efforts.

“We love working with local groups and to partner with an organization like the Neepawa Natives, who have always been such a big part of our community is fantastic. We’re strong supporters of the club and will be from here on out at any community events,” said Lange.

As for the on-ice product, Cathcart noted that preparations continue to to move forward and that there is a fair amount of optimism in the front office heading into 20152016 MJHL season, which begins on September 25.

Prairie Alliance Church Neepawa campus pastor Stafford Greer and members of the congregation presented a $500 cheque to Roxy board chair Marilyn Dietrich on July 16.

By Eoin Devereux The Neepawa Banner Prairie Alliance Church recently hosted a movie night at Roxy Theatre in Neepawa.

PAC picked up the admission price for patrons on Thursday, July 16, as well as volunteering to work the movie and contributing $500.00 to the theatre to aid with its cost of operations.

The evening was a huge success, as a capacity crowd showed up to watch the family film ‘Inside Out.’ PAC Neepawa campus pastor Stafford Greer said they were very happy with how the event was received.

“The purpose of the evening and the contribution was to be a blessing to the community. For PAC, the family night was all about sharing a family oriented experience with the town, that has welcomed us so warmly,” noted Greer.

More to the Davidson and Hamilton history On June 24, the Neepawa Heritage Committee unveiled a plaque commemorating the “Founders of Neepawa”, John A. Davidson and Jonathon J. Hamilton. While these two men, who were the first two mayors of Neepawa, had an impact on the town’s development, their families also played an important role in shaping Neepawa.

PHOTOS COURTESY OF GERROND DAVIDSON

While John A. Davidson and Jonathon J Hamilton were recognized on a plaque, there was no mention of the lady who has three streets named for her.

Ellen Hamilton-Davidson (John’s wife and J.J.’s sister) can easily be called the Town’s mother.

Emma (Davidson) Brown was John A.’s sister and the first wife of C.P. Brown, a prominent man in the early development of Gladstone. Two streets in Neepawa are named for Emma. When she passed away, C.P. Brown married her sister Jean Davidson.

Did you know?

‘Davidson Street’ in Winnipeg was named after John A. Davidson. He was the MLA for Neepawa and Provincial Treasurer at the time of his death. A special train with the premier and other officials was sent out to Neepawa for his funeral.

Don’t get a job I

Tundra

by Chad Carpenter

Take the personalities out of it all

I

It aways amazes me how restrictive some people want to be with other people’s lives

hear a lot of criticism of our governments at all levels.

Criticizing the government is a privilege we have in this country, one to be protected.

However, we need to make sure we are dealing with truth and not just colouring our criticism with personal based nastiness.

It seems that our prime minister, Mr. Harper generates some personal based criticism, often evidenced by phrases like “I don’t like Harper” or “We have to stop Harper.”

Why do people say such things? The reason is quite simple, Harper does what he said he was going to do.

The most recent example is the Universal Child Care Benefit whereby families receive monthly payments to help them with child rearing costs. The liberals and those further left on the political spectrum say it’s buying votes and are making all kinds of rude noises about the program. They want a universal day care program with licensed, regulated day cares.

There are many great day cares in Canada, both private and public, both regulated and not regulated. However the UCCB gives parents a wider range of choices, they can place a child in day care, if it’s needed or if it’s available. Or they can use the money so a parent might be able to stay home with their kids. Apparently, staying home and raising kids is not a good option if you are liberal or further left. To those on the political spectrum opposite of conservatives, it seems that kids have to be in day care or they won’t be socialized or educated or raised properly. What utter nonsense.

RIGHT IN THE CENTRE

Ken Waddell With UCCB, parents have a choice of options.

Day cares aren’t always available, especially in rural areas.

In the cities, they may be scarce but in rural areas, they may be non-existent. The UCCB gives parents a bit of help to find options for day care. That option may be mom or dad, grandma or auntie or the neighbour’s son or daughter. There are always options, maybe not enough options but there are always options.

Just the other day, I thought of one option for farmers. Maybe a farm family only needs day care in seeding or harvest season.

With the UCCB, they could save up the money and hire a neighbour to look after the kids while mom and dad are running the air seeder or the combine.

It aways amazes me how restrictive some people want to be with other people’s lives. If the extreme proponents of publicly funded, government controlled and subsidized day care had their way, all kids would be in day care. It’s utter foolishness, but that’s what they say they want.

They don’t want people to have options. They get livid when the prime minister says the best form of day care is called mom or dad.

Our children and grandchildren were not in day care. My wife and my daughter-in-law stayed home. A day care proponent recently said on Facebook that mine was a family of privilege who made nothing. That got me angry as my wife and I made something. You are reading it, it’s called a community newspaper.

Currently, we employ eight full time people and some part-time.

Three of our grandchildren have jobs in their community (not working for us) and one of those is still in school. Two have graduated and two are well on their way to graduating. Their dad has worked hard and any privilege our family has, has been earned.

My wife and I have invested huge amounts of money in our business so we can have the “privilege” of earning a lot less money than some people employed in education or health care or many other government jobs. And by the way, I am still working well past the usual retirement age and not complaining about it either.

If I had one wish to extend to Canadians, it is that they would debate politics based on facts and not on personalities.

magine if instead of telling kids to “Get a job!”, we said, “Start a business!”? Imagine how different our Main Streets would look? For a country that was built by small business owners, some of whom became large, we have become increasingly adverse to entrepreneurship.

In this country’s early days, the settlers farmed and logged and opened shops. Self MY employment PERSPECTIVE was common. Many of the early settlers left their homeland beate cause they ackman tkinson could never own property or a business. Being able to do so fulfilled a dream.

It’s amazing how quickly we’ve lost touch with that.

Today, it seems as though the only place where innovation and entrepreneurship are celebrated is the tech industry.

There everyone wants to start something; founders are revered and failure is seen as a right of passage. That’s just not the case outside that small corner of the economy.

But maybe it doesn’t have to be that way.

In small towns, small businesses are much more prevalent.

We have independent farmers and tradespeople, restaurants and hardware stores, mechanics and hair salons. Many of these are born out of necessity, someone needs to sell food and fuel. For small towns, keeping an entrepreneurial spirit is vital to retaining the services we have and adding the ones we want.

Last week, I came across a Manitoba Co-operator article called “Boissevain residents keen to ‘mind their own business’”. Published in April, the article talked about the innovative steps the community has taken to encourage and promote entrepreneurship.

In the article, Marj Billaney, host of a chamber-sponsored business fair, said, “The next time someone says, ‘You know what this town needs,’ say, ‘How can I help you get that started?’…And let’s not say to the kids, ‘Go get a job.’ Let’s say, ‘What kind of business can you start?’”

Kamara Sisson, who owns a hair salon, was one of the speakers at the event. She explained that after moving to the community with his husband and young family, she was “terrified to own a business”. All she knew was how to do hair. She was able to access advice from a provincial business start program, but believes that many people are unaware these supports exist and never pursue their business ideas.

Speakers at the conference talked about the positives of building and owning a business in rural Manitoba. They spoke about it being easier to build a good reputation by word of mouth in a smaller community and how much they like working in a culture where reputations and relationships mean something.

Through the evening, they talked about ideas to help support startups, including a fund set up by existing businesses to provide seed funding for startups and low cost commercial space to be used by new businesses.

I love the way the business community is proactively working to strengthen itself. It isn’t us versus them, established versus new businesses. From encouraging young people to start businesses to helping people access the resources they need to make an idea a reality, this is radically different from what I see in many communities.

There is nothing inherently special about Boissevain, it’s not something in the water. It’s a conscious effort and recognition that small businesses are vital to the town’s success.

For our communities to remain viable, we need small businesses and we need someone to step up and start them.

But for that to happen, we need to think about entrepreurship in a different light, we need to make it top of mind.

But we need to do this ourselves as communities, no one else will do it for us.

When organization replaces organism, part one

T

here are two ways to study ancient history. One way—the common way—the way that can put an insomniac to sleep in 10 minutes—is to memorize lists and lists of people and dates, places and dates, events and more dates. That’s how I studied history in college. It… was…boring!

After many years of avoiding history like the plague, I’m back studying it again. But today I’m not interested in the lists. I am becoming more analytical as I read books, watch TV series or listen to podcasts.

I am looking for clues that will help me determine how we got into some of the messes our world is in and what it will take to get us out of them.

One of the trends I’m studying is the development of organized religion. The proliferation of denominations, faith traditions and independent churches we see today was totally foreign to the first century church. It had its leaders (the apostles).

Local congregations met in small groups, usually in private homes. Their services were lead by elders—

FAITHFULLY YOURS Neil Strohschein people whose gifts included the ability to study and explain the Scriptures.

Ministers traveled from house to house, meeting with and encouraging the local congregations.

The day to day work of the church was done by the people. Every member of every local house church was encouraged to use his or her resources (skills, talents and spiritual gifts) to help and encourage others.

They were released to serve others as the opportunities for service arose.

Church leaders (apostles, ministers and elders) monitored what was going on. There were no rules— no restrictions on what a person could or could not do. It was assumed that everyone was working under Christ’s direction and as they were energized by the Spirit of God. So what happened? How did organized religion evolve from this humble

beginning?

As the number of local congregations increased, so did the need for another level of spiritual leadership. St. Paul created the office of “Bishop;” a spiritual leader who oversaw the churches in a specifically defined area. The Bishops were to visit the churches, encourage and help the ministers, and correct any false teaching or inappropriate activities when they arose.

But how could this be done effectively when the Bishops themselves could not agree on the specific doctrines and practices that should be taught in the church? It couldn’t be—so at the insistence of the Roman Emperor Constantine, who by this time had converted to Christianity, the Bishops convened in 325 AD, in the city of Nicea for the first official Church Council.

Two things emerged

from this meeting. The first was a Confession of Faith known as the Nicean Creed—which is still recited today as part of the litany in many churches.

So far, so good.

The second result of the Council of Nicea was the establishment of an organizational structure that, for the next 1,200 years, would determine who was qualified to teach the Scriptures and what doctrines they would teach. When people rebelled against existing organizations, they established new organizations which often replicated the ones they were rebelling against.

But all these ancient organizations (and their modern counterparts) have one thing in common— rules—lots of rules—the bigger the organization, the thicker the rule book.

Ordinary people who want to serve God through the church face the restrictions of the rules; and often, in order to be true to their calling, leave organized religion altogether. But is that a wise response?

Next week—the value of organized religion in contemporary society.

Today I chose to wonder T

here are things in my daily life that could, and sometimes do, irritate me. Today, as I tackled the day, one chore at a time, I chose to wonder. The yard is looking presentable, the grass short enough for me to spot the mole hills.

It has been my policy to grit my teeth and remove the mounds of earth from the west side of the yard.

Why not the east side? For starters, it is much larger, and rougher. Need a seat belt if you drive the mower too speedily. Today, as I removed a wheel barrowfull, a large wheel barrow, and very full, of lovely granular loam I chose to wonder: At the tenacity and intelligence of a tiny underground creature; at the vast amount of soil he/ she/they are able to move in one night! Not unlike pulling a hole in a beaver dam at sunset only to see

the place repaired and shored up by daybreak.

I pulled weeds in the garden. I have resorted to chemical warfare with the thistles. There are buckets in the garden for the portulaca that I pull out. One tiny leaf can create a new spreading mat. Like a sprig of quack grass can overtake an iris planting. I wondered at the divine design that created plants that can withstand drought and heat and active pursuit! I wondered as well about the marvel of planting tiny dormant seeds and harvesting succulent cucumbers and red cheeked tomatoes.

hen I look around any room in our home I see pictures on the walls or on shelves of family and friends. I treasure them. It brings back memories of good times together and I see how children are grown up when I compare pictures.

On my fridge door I have different pictures, mostly from family and missionaries. Whenever I open the fridge

spend time online with a sister in Thailand and a daughter in California, time on the phone with a friend on the other side of this country, a chance chat with friends while out walking the dogs. All those were extras, contact above the errands and must dos.

I wondered at the gift of communication, words and clicks and voices. I really stopped to wonder at the gifts of friendship that enrich my days.

Without my determination to wonder instead of fret, I would have been annoyed that the lid of the chest deep freeze had not completely closed and

ridges of frosted ice lined the sides of the unit. As I chipped the ice I recalled the wonder of the first freezer that my parents owned. It changed the way mom preserved our food.

She still spent hours making tomato juice, pickles and jams, but many of the vegetables could be frozen.

And not only did it save her time and energy in a hot kitchen, scalding jars and canning hundreds of jars of produce, the stuff looked and tasted better!

It is relatively easy for me to see things in a positive light. I am thankful.

Every once in a while, it is good for me to have a wondering day. See things a little differently. And throughout my working in the yard and garden, I did not have to interact with a single snake. I did not have to test my wondering on that. I am thankful!

I think of the people on the door and pray for them.

This weekend many people will be traveling and are “coming home” because the rodeo is on and it is a good time to organize a family reunion and recall memories.

When I read the Bible I often can relate to what is said about us and it brings back memories how God saved me from despair and unbelief, how He spared me from danger and that I can live a life just trusting Him. David reminds us many times in the Psalms to put our trust in Him. Psalm 37:5 is one of my favorites: “Commit your way to the Lord, trust in Him and He will do it.”

Letters

Myth or fact In his most recent editorials, Mr. Waddell again feeds the commonly accepted myth that the Tories are the most prudent fiscal managers among Canada’s political parties. In checking history, I have never understood how this myth came into being. I will share some of that history.

Dollars are not a measure of debt, because of inflation. I will therefore express debt as a percent of gross domestic product (GDP), since this takes inflation into account.

About 1955, the Liberal governments of King and St. Laurent had financed World War II and the Korean War with an accumulated debt of about 10 per cent of GDP. But by 1962, the Diefenbaker Tories ran the debt up to 33 per cent of GDP. Nine years later, the Pearson and Trudeau Liberals had taken it down to 20 per cent, riding again to 25 per cent by the end of the Trudeau era. Brian Mulroney’s Tories, within six years, raised the debt to 55 per cent of GDP. By the time the Chretien Liberals took office, the debt was a whopping 64 per cent of GDP. Several years of relative austerity by the Liberals under Chretien and Paul Martin brought it back to a more manageable 31 per cent of GDP. By 2012, Harpers’s “fiscally responsible” Tories had “managed” the numbers back up to over 38 per cent of GDP. Inflation of the GDP in 2012 and 2013 has brought it back to 33 per cent. But 33 per cent in Dief’s day was $14.8 billion. Today, 33 per cent of GDP is $602 billion.

These figures are not my own. They are from the International Monetary Fund and should be free of political bias.

Compared to other countries, we are not in danger of financial collapse, but the comparison is interesting. Russia’s debt is 10 per cent of GDP, while communist China comes in at 39 per cent and Germany at 57 per cent. That great bastion of free enterprise, the U.S.A., carries a debt of 88 per cent of GDP, and Japan, 134 per cent. Basket case Greece stands at 155 per cent. On the other end of the spectrum, the socialist Nordic countries all post financial surpluses: Finland 8 per cent, Sweden 18 per cent and Norway has a savings accounts holding 165 per cent of her GDP. As I said, it makes me wonder how right-wing parties can claim superiority in fiscal management. Wasn’t it Hitler who said, “If you tell a lie often enough, it will be believed,”?

This recipe makes finger licking good ribs! Most the cooking is done ahead of time taking the guess work out of “are they done yet?”

Zippy BBQ pork ribs 3-4 lbs. pork side ribs 1 medium onion, quartered 2-3 cloves garlic 5-6 peppercorns Sauce: 1 Tbsp. lemon juice 2 Tbsp. molasses

Fraudulent phone calls Shoal Lake RCMP have issued a warning connected to a recent string of fraudulent phone calls.

Several residents in the Yellowhead area have recently reported being contacted from persons who claim they are with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA).

The caller usually states that they are from Canada Revenue Taxation and proceeds to advise potential victims that they owe income tax money and that it must be paid immediately over the phone, otherwise a warrant of arrest will be issued. The caller then asks for financial information or a credit card number to take care of the matter.

These types of telephone scams, which have been around for years, are designed to solicit financial information from

potential victims, putting them at risk of significant financial loss.

“While reports of these fraudulent calls are primarily from the Yellowhead area, all Manitobans should be aware of this scam. If you are unsure about a suspicious call, do not engage with the caller and simply hang up,” said Sgt. Bert Paquet of the Manitoba RCMP. “There are no government agencies, including the police, that collect money this way, and never with the threat of a warrant being issued for your arrest if you do not pay” The public is advised not to engage in communication with these types of telephone calls. If you have received similar telephones calls or know of someone who has, please contact your local police or the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre at 1-888-495-8501.

3 Tbsp. sweet chili sauce 1 cup ketchup 1 Tbsp. prepared mustard 1/3 cup brown sugar 1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce 1 clove garlic, minced 1/2 tsp. pepper

Remove any excess fat from ribs. Place ribs, cut in medium sections (3-4 ribs per section) in a Dutch oven and cover with water. Add the onion, garlic cloves and peppercorns. Bring the ribs to a slow boil. Bringing them to a fast boil can make them tough. Simmer them gently for 1 hour until just tender. Remove the ribs from the water and cool for later use or prepare to barbeque them right away.

Mix the sauce ingredients together. When ready to BBQ, baste with the sauce and cook on medium heat for 10-15 minutes, basting several times with sauce. Serve with any remaining sauce.

Automotive Today, you can get top notch quality on a budget JULY 24, 2015

By Neils Mack The Neepawa Banner Last week, Hyundai pulled the veil off their new Tucson, the entry level crossover SUV, car based, AWD, wagon... vehicle. You know the type, it’s what so many of us drive.

This new Hyundai has a clever, tiny, miserly engine that could drive for hours on a whiff of fuel. It is extremely well appointed, with power leather seats and enough safety and technology to satisfy everyone. It does all this while looking extremely good. It’s like finding a partner with no flaws at all, which we know to be impossible. I’m sure even Jennifer Aniston snores and Ryan Gosling leaves his socks laying around.

NEEPAWA BANNER 7

It seems the people who make cars these days have figured it out, I’ve touched on this in previous columns – today, even the cheapest of cars are excellent. What caught me with the unveil of the new Tucson was how the perfection of these cheap new cars isn’t too far off the quality of luxury cars.

There may be some performance, pedigree and finesse lacking – but I find the vast majority of drivers don’t notice these things.

Mercedes has just released a replacement for their GLK, an entry level SUV. They have been doing some restructuring of their vehicle names so this new one is called the GLC. These more expensive luxury crossovers have a wider range of capabilities

PHOTO COURTESY OF HYUNDAI

The 2016 Hyundai Tucson has a lot to offer.

– their on road performance will be extremely sporty and in the odd chance you find yourself off road in a German crossover, it will probably mildly surprise you rather than be a let down. The same can’t be said for the cheaper counterparts. However, 99.9 per cent of the time,

you really won’t need this extreme performance.

Last year, Porsche began selling a smaller crossover type SUV, the Macan. It starts at $57,000, but if you want any creature comforts at all, the price climbs quickly and drastically.

This new Hyundai Tucson is as good looking as

the Porsche Macan but starts at less than half the price of the Porsche, $23,000. Fully loaded, I’m sure it will still be under $40,000.

Any true car enthusiast will scoff at this comparison – but for the large majority of drivers, who really don’t care about performance on the extreme, this means you are getting an exceptional car for a small price.

This never used to be the case, the divide between the entry level and the luxury vehicles was vast and wide. Sticking with the SUV examples, if you remember back to 2003 when Kia was making the first generation Sportage – there is no angle that this car looked good, no road or track

where it drove well and it was poorly made. Across the wide divide back with Porsche – 2003 was the first year for the Cayenne.

A vehicle that was built so well, slamming it through a tank proving ground for a day wouldn’t wreck it.

While inside, the alcantara, wood and leather trimming along with quad zone climate control kept occupants comfortable. It to this day holds respect as being a great vehicle – it has sold by the boat load.

The good news is that today, unless you want to drive like a race car driver or deep off road, you don’t need incredible wherewithal to get a very well appointed, safe and good looking vehicle.

What’s happening with the price at the pumps?

By Neils Mack The Neepawa Banner There has been some talk of more fluctuating oil prices recently. There are a few different fronts coming together causing some change in the market price of a barrel of crude.

The first major factor is a nuclear deal between the United Nations and Iran. This has ended UN sanctions on oil coming from Iran. The trickle down effect to us here is that when Iran gets their infrastructure back online, they can export massive amounts of oil to North America, helping to drive down the price.

While Canadian oil production continues, it is on much shakier ground that it was a year ago.

OPEC continues to export more oil than in previous years, which continues this vulnerability within the Canadian energy industry.

The recent changing of provincial government in Alberta is becoming a factor too. The newly elected NDP government plans to increase carbon fees and toughen its environmental strategy. This is unwanted pressure for industries that are over-stretched as it is.

Middle Eastern oil is much cheaper to extract from the ground and refine, so it can be sold for significantly less than Canadian oil and still be profitable. The introduction of the Iranian oil reserves threatens to drop prices even more. In fact, it is responsible for the small

drop in prices at the pump here in Neepawa last week.

The second front pressuring the market price of oil is the financial crisis in Greece. While Greece itself isn’t a major producer or consumer of oil – and can’t directly sway the price, the spillover from this crisis will have two different effects on oil.

The first is that this instability is causing a general lack of confidence in the market, this may press oil prices down slightly.

(1,1) The second spin-off comes from the damage

“

done to the value of the Euro. As its value drops, the comparative stability of the US dollar will help it do well. Since oil is priced per barrel in USD, this makes oil more expensive.

This is probably why gas prices jumped up again earlier this week.

The general outlook is that the price of gas will continue to stay low for the foreseeable future.

This means that for the remainder of summer and start of winter, gas -1- prices 02 - May 23/14.indd 14/05/14 3:34 PM shouldn’t have any unexpected jumps, barring

some political meltdown.

This does come as bad news to those in the Canadian oil industry, it doesn’t look like there will be any gain in stability for some time.

Oak River wins midget baseball tourney in Neepawa

By Eoin Devereux The Neepawa Banner A baseball club from Oak River captured the midget “AA” championship on Sunday, July 17 in Neepawa, defeating the Rock Lake Regals 18-8 in the final.

Trailing by four runs to the Regals in the top of the seventh and final inning, Oak River scored 14 runs to take the lead and ultimately seal the victory. Oak River ended the tournament with a perfect 5-0 record and will represent Manitoba at the upcoming Western Canadian Championships, scheduled for August 1416 in St. Albert, Alberta.

As for Neepawa, the host team was able to end the round robin portion of the weekend with a 2-1 record. Neepawa opened the tournament on Friday, July 17, with an 11-3 win over Bonvital. After an 11-1 loss to eventual championship finalist Rock Lake, Neepawa bounced back on Saturday by shutting out a midget team from LaBroquerie 7-0. With that win, Neepawa advanced into the quarter-finals to face the Boissevain Centennials. It was a tightly contested contest throughout, but Bois-

Neepawa manager Mike Krutkewich said the community should be proud of the great effort its young baseball players left out on the field.

“It was a great game and a great weekend overall.

Some of our regular play-

ers were not available this weekend but we were still able to compete at a high level with who we did have out there. We came into this tournament just with the hope of making it though the round robin and getting the chance to play some extra games and we did that,” said Krutkewich. “It’s

a tough loss to accept right now for them, but the players really should be proud of what they accomplished out there. The whole team really represented Neepawa the right way.”

As for the event itself, organizers deemed the weekend a major success.

Neepawa Minor Ball presi-

dent Toni Kuharski said there were large crowds in attendance at all of the games “Everything went extremely well. As far as we know, there were no major concerns. There were a few injuries from the games, which is to be expected and the weather wasn’t always

ideal, but for the most part, it was a great weekend,” Kuharski added that the tournament could not have been successful, had it not been for the tireless efforts that were put in by parents and volunteers.

“The Neepawa Cubs, the Neepawa Farmers and Neepawa Minor Ball parents deserve a huge shoutout.

The work they did out there, that was amazing.

Everyone pulled together and were able to pull this off,” noted Kuharski.

Baseball Manitoba convenor Greg Bell agreed with Kuharski’s assessment of the weekend and added that Neepawa has always proven to be a great baseball community.

“It was a terrific event.

Previously, both as a coach and as a spectator, I have been to other provincial events and I felt that this year, Neepawa’s effort was as good, if not better than any others I’ve ever attended,” said Bell. “The quality of baseball was top notch and the efforts of the volunteers for Neepawa Minor Ball were amazing.

It just goes to show how committed and passionate this community is for the game.

Marlins takes 2-0 series lead over Neepawa Farmers

By Eoin Devereux The Neepawa Banner

Brandon Marlins 3 Neepawa Farmers 1 A solid pitching effort from Luke Whelpton was able to carry the Brandon Marlins an early series lead over the Neepawa Farmers in the best of seven Manitoba Senior Baseball league semi-final.

On Monday, July 20 in Neepawa, Whelpton struck out five Farmers batters over the course of seven innings on the way to a 3-1 win.

For Neepawa, pitcher Josh Loewen was able to pitch a complete game, striking out eight batters and allowing just three runs. Despite that solid effort, Loewen was still tagged with the loss.

At the plate, Dustin Asham was able to lead the way for the Marlins, going 3-for-4 and adding a pair of stolen bases. Nolan Jago went 2-for-4 on the evening for Brandon. Meanwhile, Garrett Rempel and Matt Sneesby had two hits a piece for the Farmers. Game two is scheduled for Tuesday, July 21, in Brandon. Game time at Andrews Field is set for 7:00 pm.

In the other semi final series on Monday night, it was the Brandon Cloverleafs who would start strong, picking up a 4-3 victory over the Oak River Dodgers in game one of their series.

Obituary EDWARDS Thomas Arthur Leybourne Edwards passed away peacefully on July 11, 2015, at the Neepawa Memorial Hospital. He was surrounded by his loving family and will be sadly missed.

Tom was born September 18, 1927, in Roblin, Manitoba, to John Arthur and Lottie Mary (Leybourne) Edwards. After graduating high school in Roblin, Tom served as 2nd Lt. in the RCA, studied at the University of Manitoba for a brief period of time, and began working for HBMS and HBED out of Flin Flon, Manitoba. It is there where he met and married his wife of nearly 60 years, Freda Lucille (McIntosh). They were married September 3, 1955 in Flin Flon. After many years of employment, exploring, “hooping”, and surveying the Canadian North, Tom returned to his studies in 1960. He moved his young family down to Winnipeg and attended the University of Manitoba, followed by teacher’s college.

Tom will be remembered by the many students he taught, in various communities, such as Chatfield, Metagoshe, Marsden 2, Fairfax, and Elgin, Manitoba. In 1964, Tom and his growing family, moved to Neepawa, Manitoba, where he began his long career as the Grade 7 to 9 science teacher at Viscount School and Neepawa Area Collegiate Institute. Tom received his B.A., and B.Ed from Brandon University, and was a proud alumni. He was, and continues to be, a well loved and respected teacher in the community long after his retirement in 1988.

Tom enjoyed life to the fullest and was an active member of his community. He served many terms as Worshipful Master of the Neepawa Masonic Lodge, was a life member of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 23 in Neepawa, a captain with #9 RCACS Air Cadets of Neepawa, and a local member of the Lions Club. Tom cherished his time with close friends in Neepawa, and loved his time at the family cabin at Denare Beach. There he would sit and read, enjoy countless visits from his children, grandchildren, friends and neighbours, and complete Sudoku puzzles, with the loons singing in the background. Tom was a Dr. Dolittle of sorts, as dogs and animals absolutely loved him. Where ever he was, he would soon win the hearts of the neighbourhood pets.

Tom is survived by his wife, Freda; their three children, Cheryl (Neil), Maureen (Peter), and Graham (Roberta); three grandchildren, Rachelle, Jordon, Nolan, and step-granddaughter, Michelle. He is also survived by his sister Joyce (Jack) and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, John and Lottie, and sister Doris (Roy).

A private family interment will be held at the Neepawa Cemetery on Friday, July 17, 2015. The family would like to express their gratitude to Dr. G. Ong, the nursing staff, Mary Ellen Clark, and the volunteers of the Palliative Care Service for the gentle care shown to Tom. A special thank you to his close friends who have offered friendship, love and support to both he and Freda. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Volunteer Palliative Care Service in care of Mary Ellen Clark, Neepawa Memorial Hospital, Neepawa, MB, R0J 1H0 are graciously accepted.

Thank you for reading the Neepawa Banner

Mary Free

It is with great sadness that our family announces the passing of Mary Free, beloved wife of Tom Free.

Mary passed away on February 17th 2015 at the age of 81 at the Edith Cavell Care Centre in Lethbridge AB. Mary was born on April 20, 1933 at her parent’s home (Dave and Lena Woelke) near Arden. Throughout her life Mary was an outgoing, fun loving person. In her younger years she had jobs at the Bamboo restaurant and did housekeeping for others.

Like many farm wives she worked hard on the farm, raising her children, tending large vegetable gardens, making meals and keeping house.

Mary and Tom were married at the Anglican Church in Arden on November 10, 1950 and they spent most of their lives farming a few miles out of Arden, moving into a house Tom and his brother Harry built in Arden in 1976. As the years progressed and after Harry passed from cancer, Tom and Mary moved into Kinsmen Courts in 1995 where they lived until Tom’s heart failed and he passed away in 1999. Shortly after, Mary was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and moved to Coaldale, Alberta where she would have the loving support needed from her daughter Shirley Ann Geers and her family. Mary lived in a senior’s apartment and several care facilities in the area as her Alzheimer’s progressed and she needed more care. Mary fought bravely through the devastating stages of Alzheimer’s, keeping an amazingly strong attitude until the end.

Left in mourning are Mary’s 3 children, Dan (Loretta), Shirley Ann (John), Tim (Lisa) and 6 grandchildren.

Mary is survived by her brothers Roy (Fran) Woelke, Barry (Edna) Woelke, Larry (Eunice) Woelke, sister Diane, sister in law Elma Woelke, and predeceased by her husband Tom, parents Dave and Lena Woelke, brother Peter, sister Margaret Peters and her husband Henry, and brother in laws Harry Free and Henry Doerksen.

We invite all who knew Mary to join us as we celebrate her life. A brief graveside service will be held at the Arden Cemetery on July 25 2015 at 2pm followed by lunch and a chance to visit with family and friends at the Arden hall at 2:30. Family, friends and neighbours are welcome to attend either or both.

In honor of Mary’s memory and in lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Alzheimer Society. Anyone not able to attend but wishing to send their wishes can do so by emailing danfree@outlook.com.

GET MOVING WITH PHYSIOTHERAPY

Supportive footwear is important for healthy feet The arrival of summer offers many different footwear options, but not always good choices for our feet. Our feet function as shock absorbers for our body. The average person takes 10,000 steps a day which accumulates to 3 million steps in a year. The foot and ankle are comprised of 26 bones and 33 joints. The height of the arch and the shape of the foot vary significantly from person to person. Changes to our feet occur over time due to injury, wear and tear and aging. Painful feet and/or ankles can significantly alter an individual’s mobility and function.

Wearing cheap or improper shoes with poor support can lead to foot problems. Common foot conditions include:

• Metatarsalgia – inflammation affecting the toe joint over the ball of the foot, generally over the second or third toe. It can be caused by wearing high heels, shoes that are too small with a narrow toe box or shoes with inadequate shock absorbing qualities. Described as a sharp or burning pain aggravated with weight bearing, or a feeling like stepping on a pebble. Women, people with high arches or people who have a second toe longer than the big toe are more likely to develop metatarsalgia • Morton’s neuroma – an inflamed, irritated nerve, usually between the third and fourth toes. It occurs when the nerve becomes pinched and traumatized. Initially, it can feel like a dull ache, progressing to a burning pain in the ball of the foot. Improper or tight fitting shoes can irritate the nerve resulting in inflammation • Calluses and corns – the accumulation of dead skin cells that harden and thicken. Callus is generally found on the ball of the foot, heel or on the inside of the big toe. Corns usually form on the tops, sides and ends of the toes. Both develop due to excessive pressure. Corns tend to have a cone shaped core with a point that can cause pressure on a nerve. They are caused by wearing shoes that are too big or small or from high heeled shoes.

Hammertoes commonly develop corns when the shoe doesn’t allow adequate room for the toes. Hammertoe is a deformity in which the middle joint of the toe remains in a bent position and overtime, can become fixed and rigid. Callus can develop from wearing high heeled shoes, shoes that are too small, flat feet, high arched feet or loss of the fat pad on the bottom of the foot.

• Arthritis – can occur in the joints of the foot and ankle, resulting in pain and disability.

Supportive footwear is important and an insole or custom orthotic that maintains the ankle in the best possible neutral position may also be necessary to gain relief of the pain.

Remember to be kind to your feet as they support the equivalent of 1.5 times the body weight with walking.
