Last Thursday, Friday and Sunday gave amateur green thumbs a chance to grow lilies like a professional. Nigel Strohman, of the Lily Nook in Neepawa, held a free lily hybridizing course on each of those three days during the Lily Nook’s annual Lily Daze. Strohman said that hybridizing is all about “trying to improve on what’s out there and come up with something new and exciting.” He offered the course to get people more interested in the flower that gives Neepawa its international title. “[It would] be nice to get people to try it at home. Once they start hybridizing, hopefully they’ll get hooked on lilies,” he said. The course started off with some handouts that showed diagrams of lilies, labeled with all the parts of the flower. One needs to know these parts, especially the ones on the
After explaining the hybridizing process, Nigel Strohman took the groups to his seedling garden to show them his own hybrids and give the gardeners an idea of what they might get out of breeding their flowers.

National recognition for Camp Hughes
NEEPAWA BANNER 3
Helen Drysdale OUT OF HELEN’S KITCHEN
Fresh blueberry pie Long ago, the Native Americans recognized the value of blueberries and used them as food and medicine. Years later, we have discovered just how nutritiously full of vitamins and antioxidants these little berries are. The latest research on blueberry antioxidants and their potential benefits for the nervous system and for brain health shows exciting new evidence that blueberries can improve memory. With that in mind, I made a fresh blueberry pie! This recipe makes a large 9-10 inch pie or two smaller ones. Fresh blueberry pie 1/4 tsp. cinnamon prepared pie crust 1 tsp. grated lemon rind 4 cups fresh blueberries 1 Tbsp. lemon juice 2/3 cup sugar 2 Tbsp. cream or milk 1 Tbsp. flour 2 Tbsp. or less sugar 1 Tbsp. Minute Tapioca

On July 24, a large crowd gathered at Camp Hughes, located west of Carberry, to celebrate the site’s recognition as a national historic site. The camp served as a training base for recruits from across western Canada during World War I and is one of the few places in the world, and the only place in North America, where World War I trenches remain in existence. In addition to the unveiling of a new plaque, the event also featured the ribbon cutting to open a new pavillion with interpretive panels. From Left: Lieut. Col. John Cochrane (Commander, CFB Shilo), Kathleen Christenson (Senior Curator, RCA Museum, Shilo), Grant Tyler (Military Curator, Parks Canada), Wayne Blair (former Mayor of Carberry), Bruce Tascona (Past President, Military History Society of Manitoba), Brad Wells (former Reeve of the RM of North Cypress). For more information about Camp Hughes and the ceremony, see next week’s Neepawa Banner.
Learning a lot about lilies continued from page 2 After he finished showing them the process, Strohman took the attendees to his seedling garden, where he has some of his own breeds that he plans to put on the market in the coming years. Those who attended the course asked lots of questions and learned a lot about growing lilies, as well as hybridizing, that they didn’t know before. Some of them came to see the lilies and the flower show and came to the course to learn more about the flowers themselves. Others said they plan to try breeding lilies themselves and
even see if they can try with other flowers. This is the first time Strohman has offered the course, but he hopes that it will become an annual part of the Lily Daze week. Over the three days, about 10 people attended the course, so next year, Strohman said that he’ll probably just offer the course on one day instead. He also said he’ll try offering a different course as well. He mentioned maybe demonstrating how to display lilies, because quite a few newcomers that attended the flower show said they’d be interested in entering their lilies in the competition.

Gently wash berries and drain. Place in a bowl. In another small bowl, mix the sugar, flour, tapioca, cinnamon and lemon rind together. Add the lemon juice to the berries. Stir the sugar mix into the blueberries. Spoon into prepared pie shell. Add the top crust making sure to have air vents. Brush top crust with cream, being careful not to “pool” cream. Sprinkle with sugar and put into preheated 400° oven for 15 minutes. Turn the temperature down to 350° and bake for another 35-45 minutes or until nicely browned and bubbly. This time is for the large pie. Adjust time for a smaller pie.

n Sunday, I stood in the trenches at the front lines, with smoke and flares and the sounds of gunfire all around. There were loud whistles and the commanders were yelling orders as the troops advanced into No Man’s Land. There was a plane passing back and forth over head. This unique experience wasn’t a new virtual reality game, it took place under the hot July sun in the middle of a field. It was a battle simulation held at Camp Hughes, located west of Carberry. The reenactment, featuring members MY of the Military PERSPECTIVE History Society of Manitoba and ordinary citizens, was part ate of the festivities to celebrate the ackman tkinson camp’s recognition as a place of national historic significance. The recognition was a long time coming. Many could be forgiven for not knowing the importance of Camp Hughes. Today, a small pavilion and some interesting topography are all that remain of what was once Manitoba’s second largest city. During the summer of 1916, Camp Hughes was a major military training site, preparing men to head across the ocean, to fight in France and Flanders during World War I. Over the years, there have been many military bases across Canada, but Camp Hughes is unique for a couple of reasons, the most important of which is its trenches. The training trenches at the site were first built in 1915 and enlarged and improved in 1916. Soldiers who had returned from the Western Front helped design them to accurately simulate the setting that would face the Canadian soldiers once they arrived overseas. In total, the soldiers trained in a 10 km trench system, which included front line, support and communication trenches as well as dugouts. What also makes Camp Hughes so unique is that all of this remains, albeit a little worn by time and weather. In the 1930s, the Canadian Army moved the camp’s buildings and other moveable assets to Shilo, leaving everything else intact. They basically walked away from the site, leaving everything as it was. Most other army bases in use during World War I continued to be active bases and were updated and modernized as warfare has changed. Today, no army would train its soldiers in trench warfare, but the trenches at Camp Hughes have stayed intact as the area, which sits on Crown Land, has been used to graze cattle since the army left. Today, Camp Hughes is the only place in North America where World War I era trenches can be seen. The lessons taught at Camp Hughes played a vital role in the Canadians’ success in the latter part of World War I. The camp also played an important role in our national history and identity. When Canadian troops captured Vimy Ridge in April 1917, many of those men received their training at Camp Hughes. The battle is considered by most to be a defining moment in Canada’s history, it marked the point at which Canada came of age as more that just a British colony and has been celebrated as a symbol of national unity. It’s been a long road for the Friends of Camp Hughes to achieve this recognition. It began in 1987 when friends Bruce Tascona (who has written a great book about the camp) and Grant Tyler ventured into the area and found some rusted relics and ditches. For 10 years, members of the Military History Society of Manitoba applied for a heritage permit to survey, collect artifacts and make reports on their finding to the province. The research was funded mostly out of the members’ own pockets. In 1993, the camp received Provincial Heritage Site status and was recognized with a “unique and rare” designation. The federal recognition, which includes not only a plaque but also an interpretive exhibit, finally came this year. Time has passed and no one who actually trained and fought in World War I remains to share their stories. Because of this, historic sites such as Camp Hughes become ever more important. While it’s been a long time coming, I’m glad to see this site has finally been granted national recognition– it’s a site that’s unique not just within our Canadian story, but also within the greater context of world events.

Lessons from Dallas and Baton Rouge, part one
T
he recent attacks on police officers in Dallas, TX and Baton Rouge, LA have left communities and nations in shock; with many people asking the same question: “What’s going on here?” What’s going on here is easy to explain—when justice is denied (or perceived to have been denied) to those who seek it, some people will take the law into their own hands and fight back at what they believe is an unjust system that discriminates against them and others like them. What these vigilantists don’t realize is that their actions may not produce the results they are seeking. If anything, they will create more tension in local police departments and increase the risk of excessive and possibly lethal force being used in situations where it is totally unnecessary. The end result—more senseless shootings, more protests and more acts of retaliation—which, when added together, will produce even more senseless shootings, even more protests and even more acts of retaliation.
FAITHFULLY YOURS Neil Strohschein It’s a vicious cycle that keeps getting more vicious and it obscures the message that people on both sides of this issue are trying to share. This is a message we’ve heard before. But unfortunately, we haven’t taken it as seriously as we should have. It’s no secret that many Canadians have serious concerns about our justice system and are calling for significant reforms. While I understand their concerns, I would argue that before we can reform the system, we need to review the three essential qualities of a system in which everyone is guaranteed equal justice under the law. I will deal with the first one this week and talk about the other two in next week’s column. The first quality is this: in every just society must be governed by just laws.
The laws must set forth absolute standards of right and wrong. They must be easy to understand so that those who make the law, those who must keep the law and those who enforce the law will interpret it the same way and know what is expected of them. There must be one law for all people; and there must be no grey areas (obscure or unclear definitions of right and wrong) or loopholes that allow those guilty of crimes to get off on a technicality. In crafting these laws, we will find much wisdom in the Ten Commandments given to ancient Israel. This ancient law code divides into two parts. Part one deals with the ancient Israelites’ obligations to God. Part two deals with their obligations to each other. Here we find four principles upon which
all civil and criminal law codes should be based. These principles are: 1. Respect for human life (don’t kill and don’t bear false witness against another). 2. Respect for authority (honor your father and mother). 3. Respect for private property (don’t covet and don’t steal). 4. Respect for established relationships (don’t commit adultery). These principles share two things in common. First, they remind us that we should always be more concerned about the needs of others than we are about our own; that we should, as Jesus said so clearly, love our neighbors as ourselves. The second thing these principles share in common is that they apply equally to all people, in all cultures and in all periods of time. Laws based on these principles will be as blind to the things that divide us as the original laws were. Next week—how do we enforce the law so that justice is not only done, but “seen” to be done?
Finding my way around... I t’s an adventure, finding my way around a new home. It’s no secret that I am in the kitchen only because one must eat to live, not a fun or happy place for me to be. I am using a stove fancier than I ever thought I would own. Self-cleaning. That should eliminate the fun game of putting out an oven fire. A game at which I have become adept, especially in pie baking season. Don’t believe I shall miss it, though! The fridge that I saw as too big, well, one third is a freezer and so the fridge part is actually smaller than what I am used to. That’s a good thing, most times that appliance is echo empty, causing my caring grandchild to tsk me. “What are you eating?” Only answer for that is – take a look at me, I am not fading away! Several years ago, we got a new bed. The super thick

mattress kind. Ed thought it was too high and so we had the bed on two by fours on the floor rather than a frame. So now I have it on a frame, and it’s too high for the dogs to jump on. Normally, that would be a good thing, but ‘we’ are accustomed to sleeping together. The first night Miss Daisy casually eyed the bed, jumped and fell back. Embarrassed her horribly. To add insult to injury, the next morning when she jumped off, she skidded on the smooth floor. Not good, embarrassed again. I think I solved that by putting a
Observation By Addy Oberlin
A
s long as I can remember, we had pets in our home and they were part of the family. It taught me to have a love for animals. When my family was growing up, we had a variety of animals from gerbils to birds to cats, dogs and fish. Sometimes, we had to search the house to find a pet who had gone into hiding somewhere.
small chest at the foot of the bed. Miss Daisy caught the concept the first time I carefully showed her how to do it. Henry Hoover, on the other hand, can only go to bed by himself when I am available. Pitiful whimpers have me rushing to hoist him up. I am well trained. I don’t have all the boxes unpacked, but I have enough to get by. Friends saw clearly that my intent to facilitate the move with a crew of three, me being one of them, was totally unrealistic. Thankfully! The first day of moving a caring friend offered a wonderful supper to the
crew of seven. And the second day another helper served six exhausted movers. But we got it done. Plus 30, 31, with a humidex of 45, well, truthfully, we could not drink enough to pee. Hot and bothered, but all remained cheerful and good natured. The first night, Miss Daisy threatened the train that passed by in the wee hours of the morning. So the next night I left a radio on and we slept through. How am I doing with all this? I woke up Friday morning and my first thought was - it’s Friday and I don’t have to mow the lawn! When I mowed my new yard it took me 25 minutes with the walking mower, not five and a half hours on the riding mower. I think that pretty much says it all!
Even now, my little dog waits for me by the window and greets me as soon as I am in the door. For many people, animals can have a healing influence. In Genesis 1:25 it tells us that God made the beast of the earth after his kind ….. and God saw that it was good. In verse 28, God tells us that after He created male and female, He blessed them and told them to have dominion over the fish of the sea, the fowl of the air and over every living thing that moved upon the earth. We need to respect and love what God has created, He did it because of His love for us.
Manitoban families sponsor acres for Syria For the Thiessen family of Lorette, being a part of the Grow Hope Manitoba project and helping to provide food for people in Syria is a way to participate in God’s call to feed the hungry. “We believe we can express our love to God by being generous and sharing with those who go without,” says Daphne Thiessen. Daphne, her husband Randall, along with their sons Sam, 10, and Kai, 13, are sponsoring two acres of soybeans on Artel Farm near Niverville through the Grow Hope project. When the crop is harvested and sold, the profit will be donated to the Mennonite Central Committee account at the Canadian Foodgrains Bank and used to help people experiencing hunger in Syria. An initial $300 sponsorship can turn into as much as $500 once the crop is bought and sold. “It’s an opportunity to be good stewards,” says Daphne, noting the farm connection is especially important to her. “I grew up on a grain farm west of the city,” she adds. “It’s important to me to keep my kids connected to the land, knowing where food comes from and what it takes to feed people.” The project is also bridging multiple generations in the family, including Daphne’s parents, and Sam and Kai, who chose to use some of the savings their grandparents have given them over the years. “My mom told me about Grow Hope and I thought it sounded cool, so I sponsored an acre with my brother,” says Sam. “I think Jesus wants me to be generous.” His older brother, Kai, agrees, noting that the farming connection was part of what drew him to the project. “I have a garden box that I have planted with tomatoes and basil this year. The idea of being somewhat connected to the land that me and my brother sponsored is one of the other reasons I chose to sponsor an acre,” he says. “God has given me a lot of great things and it only seems right to share with others.” This year, proceeds from Grow Hope Manitoba will be used to help respond to the crisis in Syria, where many people continue to suffer from the effects of the ongoing conflict. So far, the young soybean crop is about 15 cm high, according to Grant Dyck, the farmer who has volunteered his family’s land and manpower for the project. “We’ve been getting a lot of rain lately, which isn’t great, and leaves are a bit more yellow than they should be,” he says, noting that he isn’t worried. “As long as we get some good sunny days in the next little while, the plants will bounce back. Soybeans are a long growing season crop, and particularly where the plants are on higher ground, they are starting to spread out nicely.” It’s not too late to get involved with Grow Hope Manitoba! Grant still has acres available for sponsorship. For more information, go to the Grow Hope Manitoba homepage or call the MCC Manitoba office at (204)261-6381. Canadian Foodgrains Bank

Bringing real horsepower to the Threshermen’s Reunion
PHOTOS BY KATE JACKMAN-ATKINSON
Sunday morning, a group set out from the Carberry Fairgrounds for their annual ride to the Austin Threshermen’s Reunion.
Ray Gork, of Neepawa, has been taking part in the ride for about 12 years.
Alex Christison, of Brookdale, has been taking part in the ride since 2001. By Kate Jackman-Atkinson The Neepawa Banner Sunday, under a sunny sky, a group set out to bring some real horse power to the Threshermen’s Reunion and Stampede. On July 24, about 20 people driving horses and covered wagons, as well as riding, set out from the Carberry Fairgrounds, headed towards Austin. Neepawa area resident Art Gibson has been taking part in the annual ride since its first year. He explained that 26 years ago, when the Reunion’s feature was horse power, “A bunch of
us got together and decided to ride down.” The ride has grown from one day, to four and Gibson is one of three participants who have gone every year. This year, like in previous years, the group will follow the Fort Ellice Trail and travel through Spruce Woods Provincial Park. The first day is the shortest, with the group covering 12 miles. On the other days, they will travel between 16 and 18 miles each day, stopping for lunch and camping overnight in the wagons, many which are outfitted as a comfortable home away from home. Additionally,
some friends and family will join the group for a day or riding. This year’s trip includes nine wagons and Gibson said that in their largest years, they have seen between 12 and 14 wagons participate. Over the last 26 years, he said that they have had many people come and join them and some years, the trip has included participants spanning multiple generations. The group will arrive in Austin on Thursday, July 28, in time to drive the wagons through the opening parade at 1:30 p.m. Gibson, like many of the other participants, uses his horses for chores and plowing competitions throughout the year.
Throughout the Reunion, many of the horses that took part in the ride will also participate in the demonstrations and competitions and can be seen during the daily parades with various pieces of farm equipment.

By John Drinkwater The Neepawa Banner On Saturday, July 16, a celebration and “passing of the torch” took place at Clear Lake Gas & Bike Rentals. The occasion was to formally recognize the change of ownership from Rey and Arlene Toews to Ron, Sherry, Amara and Kyra Mistal. The Mistal family operated Mano's Pizza and Upper Cup for several years in rented accommodation across the street. These are now incorporated in their new business. The transition was celebrated with hot dogs, drinks and cake. Rey and Arlene and Ron and Sherry wished to thank Brad and Leanne (Clear Lake Trading Post) for donating the hot dog buns, Lorne Zacharias (Heritage Co-op) for drinks and cake, Pratts & Winnipeg Old Sausage for hot dogs. Barry Cooper, petroleum division manager, Heritage Co-op operated the barbecue. Proceeds from this ($510) and remaining supplies were donated to Helping Hands soup kitchen in Brandon. Arlene and Rey said that they viewed their years not as work, but as a gathering place of families and strengthening those relationships, “We were privileged to meet people from countries
worldwide. We thank our many friends and loyal customers who faithfully supported us and look for-
ward to continuing those friendships as we begin the next chapter of our life.”

Neepawa, Carberry set to host Desert Classic
Neepawa team wins UCT provincial golf championship
ition for Sandhills, as it’s been ongoing since the mid 1980s. Falk said the partnership with NGCC, which first began in 2014, has added a new and interesting layer to the weekend. “We have a strong core of players who participate in the Classic every year, but this partnership with [the Neepawa Golf and Country Club], added a new challenge for our regulars, as well as attracting new players from Neepawa and surrounding area,” said Falk. “It’s really great to see an event, like the Classic, evolve as it has.” NGCC general manager and CPGA golf professional Landon Cameron said they’re very pleased to be a part of the Desert Classic. He added that the two day tournament is able to provide a rare
Left to right: Neil, Braden and Warren Gillies, along with Lisa Davie were the top team at the Manitoba UCT Council’s 16th annual golf tournament, held in Minnedosa on Saturday, July 16. The group shot an -8 score of 64 for the event, which was a Texas Scramble format. The winning round was bogey free, with 11 pars, six birdies and an eagle. The tournament featured teams from Neepawa, Brandon, Portage la Prairie and Minnedosa. This is the fourth time a team from Neepawa has claimed top spot (with teams led by Terry McIntosh winning in 2004, 2009 and 2015).

Golfers from across the province will test their skills against a pair of Westman’s most challenging courses this weekend, as part of the 2016 Desert Classic. The two day tournament will begin on Saturday, July 30 at the Neepawa Golf and Country Club (NGCC) and conclude on Sunday, July 31 at Carberry’s Sandhills Golf & Country Club. The Classic features both a men’s and women’s competitive category, and has just over 100 players already confirmed this year, though spaces are still available for any late entries. Jason Falk, who along with Ryan Robson is organizing this year’s event, said that the Classic has been a longstanding trad-
challenge for local golfers. “It’s a great event and partnering with the Carberry Sandhills Golf Course makes the competition a unique challenge for the participants because both courses play differently. Our course plays a little more open. It’s very target oriented, while Carberry provides a different look. It’s a tight course that’s tree lined. So, you’re getting two golf courses that are fairly different, so it tests all your skills as a player,” said Cameron. Entry fee for the Desert Classic is $90.00 and late entries will be accepted at the clubhouse of the Sandhills Golf and Country Club until July 30th. Interested players are asked to contact (204) 834-2325 in order to register.

Billet Sponsor program A new initiative this year is the billet sponsorship program. One of the team’s largest expenses (over $50,000) is the $2,100 per player per season billeting costs. Each year, the Natives receive huge support from businesses for advertising sponsorships. The billet sponsorship program is an opportunity for hockeyminded individuals to help sustain a good hockey experience and a good family style billeting environment for all the players; young men who come to be part of Neepawa from all across Canada. So far, four people have stepped up to provide a billet sponsorship. The team needs 25 in total and is asking for six post dated cheques for $350 per month to cover the monthly billet costs for one player.
The Neepawa Natives Junior ‘A’ hockey team is planning an expansion of two very successful projects from last year, while also launching a brand new initiative. Neepawa Annual Sports Dinner Last year, the team partnered with the Town of Neepawa to sponsor the annual Sports Dinner. This year, with the Town’s blessing, the team has taken over the organization of the dinner, with extensive help from Ann Kuharski and the Yellowhead Centre. For 2016, the club is planning to do the dinner in a big way. Calgary Flames superstar Lanny McDonald has been booked as the guest speaker. The dinner will be held at the Yellowhead Centre on Saturday, Oct. 15. Tickets are $75 per person. It’s expected that the dinner will be a sell-out affair. Harvest for Hockey Last year, the Neepawa Natives launched the Harvest for Hockey project, where several individual farmers dumped some grain directly from their combines

The Neepawa Natives are looking to expand that project this year by not only repeating last year’s effort, but by also setting up accounts at local grain elevators so farmers can allocate some grain to the

Action packed day at the drags
News roundup Misc. items of note for Neepawa and region
Banner Staff The Neepawa Banner One person is dead after a head-on collision in the Municipality of McCreary. Ste Rose du Lac RCMP say that the multi-vehicle crash occurred on Tuesday, July 26, and involved a car travelling south on the highway colliding with a northbound semi. The lone occupant of the car, a 51-year-old man from Toronto, was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the truck did not suffer serious injuries. Assault case remanded An alleged assault case against a prominent Neepawa resident has been remanded. On Tuesday, July 26, a Minnedosa provincial court judge deferred the hearing against Ivan Traill until Tuesday, Aug. 23. Traill is accused of assaulting Bill Gade in 2012. Gade the owner of CJ97 radio, can be named as the alleged victim because he broadcast an editorial on his station accusing Traill. None of the charges have been proven in court. Evan Lanes property update The Highway Traffic Board has requested additional clarification from a business wanting to use the property at the intersection of Highways 16 and 5 North. The land under consideration is the Evans Bowling Lanes and Mr. Ribs Restaurant. The interested party has been working with T.L. Penner Construction on the application, which includes a paved parking area with curbing and the removal of two buildings (commercial) adjacent to PTH No. 5. The Traffic Board has asked for an estimate of traffic flow expectations before approving the permit. Rumours regarding just what the business in question is have been rampant over the past few months. Any project that may be in the works will have to receive approval from the Highway Traffic Board before being able to make any formal announcement.
By Kira Paterson The Neepawa Banner An enthusiastic crowd was out to cheer on the racers at the annual Runway Drag Races last Saturday. The races are hosted by Neepawa’s Yellowhead Roadrunners Auto Club and are held at the Neepawa Airport every year. This year, due to a dreary weather forecast, the turnout was down from previous years, Gary Salmon of the Roadrunners club noted. Darcy Mitchler, who is also involved in the Yellowhead Roadrunners and sponsors the Drag Races through Piston Ring, estimated the turnout to be between 400 and 500. The weather turned out to be decent, though, with only about 20 minutes of rain at around 4:00 pm. They stopped the races for the duration of the showers, but Salmon said the crowd was very hardy and stuck around through the delay. Mitchler said that there were 45 racers registered this year. Salmon said that number was down from most years, usually having between 50 and 60 racers entered. Despite lower numbers, the spectators

Brett “Big Schwag” Wagner, star of the Speed Network TV show Pass Time. were enthusiastic and enjoyed the day’s entertainment. All of the racers were really happy with the day too, getting a full day of racing in, Mitchler noted. Every year, the calibre of racers increases and the drags get bigger and better. Many of the races this year had cars coming in with times close to the five second mark, which Mitchler explained is a really good time. He added that the features keep getting better every year, too. The feature this year was special guest Brett “Big Schwag” Wagner from
the TV drag racing game show, Pass Time. He had a booth set up on site for people to come and meet him and he also raced against Bert de Koning and his brother Leon de Koning for intermission entertainment. Bert raced Wagner twice, while Leon went up against him once. All three races were very close, but Wagner took the win for each of them. The crowd really enjoyed watching those races and getting a chance to meet Wagner, Salmon said. Mitchler said that as a sponsor, he was very happy with how the day
went overall and with the hard work that the organizers put into the event. He added that the Roadrunners club is very grateful to all the spectators who came out despite the weather forecast and stuck around through the period of rain. The Runway Drags are an annual event put on by the Roadrunners to encourage amateurs to get competing in drag races without too much pressure to be perfect. It’s also for entertainment for the community and visitors to the area.

A sweet response to Jam Fest

Above right: ArtsForward’s director of programming Rrain Prior led some of the children’s activities at this year’s Jam Fest. Right: Jim Danino (left) and Ron Nordstrom were two of the musicians who took part in the musical portion of Jam Fest. By Eoin Devereux The Neepawa Banner In a very short amount of time, ArtsForward’s Jam Fest has become one of Neepawa’s most anticipated summer celebrations. The event, which was held on Saturday, July 23 at the former Viscount Cultural Centre, featured live music, an outdoor art show and farmer’s market. Another major part of Jam Fest was the jam tasting competition, which featured 16 different varieties and was won by Christine Waddell. ArtsForward director of programming Rrain Prior said that she’s very pleased with just how well this year’s festivities were received. “It was definitely bigger and better than last year. We were really happy that the weather cooperated on Saturday, so that we were able to use our outdoor space. We had people who showed up right at 1:00 pm and stayed for the entirety of the day for the music, which was wonderful. We also had lots of kids come through. We had about a dozen vendors with various products. That’s much more than last year, because we opened it up to various products. People were really happy to see

the variety,” said Prior. This was the second year for Jam Fest. In 2015, the inaugural event was planned in a very short amount of time, as the decision to move ahead with the day wasn’t made until the end of May. Prior said that with the extra time to prepare for this year, organizers were able to come up with something that had much more variety. “We received some wonderful feedback from people on the day. People liked the way it was all structured. They liked the fact that it was family oriented and actually had something for every member of the family. In the summer, you’re always looking for something for your kids to do. We had arts and crafts, as well
as music,” Prior noted. “Really, just universally positive comments on the day.” As for the future of ArtsForward’s Jam Fest, Prior is optimistic they’ll be able to continue expanding on the original concept and ensure it becomes the type of summer celebration the community can be proud of. “We’re certainly looking forward to doing this again next year. We’ll figure out what worked and what didn’t and make adjustments to ensure that Jam Fest is something that can continue growing,” stressed Prior. “We’ve had people specifically ask us ‘Please, do this again’, so we’re definitely going forward with it.”

In Memory
George Squires who left us 10 years ago, on July 30, 2006. Although we smile and make no fuss, no one misses him more than us. And when old times we often recall, it is then we miss him most of all. Sadly missed and remembered with love, Linda and family
In Memory of Randy Black We won’t forget the way you smiled, The words you used to say, The many things you did for us In your own and special way. Of all that life has given us, And all that is left to do, One of lives greatest gifts Are the years we spent with you. Always remembered and always loved. Donna, Dawn, Dwayne and family

Obituary James David Patterson August 10, 1936 ~ July 24, 2016 Jim was born and lived all his life in the Bear Creek District of Gladstone and as he was approaching his death he said “and I guess I’m gonna die here too.” He said that Bear Creek was a great place to live. He was a member of a family of 12 children with one additional sister who died at infancy. He met Jean Margaret Leavesley, the love of his life at a house warming party November 12, 1966 and they were married August 12, 1967 in Leeds, England. Jim was a farmer and loved it. He also loved the cattle auctions and was proud of the herd that he and brother Alan had built over the years. Jim wrote in his family history that he “got in on the end of an era of farming and have seen the progression from the threshing outfits to the mighty L.A. Case tractor and the powerful John Deere D. to the big four wheel drive tractors of today.” Jim and Jean raised their two children Lorna and Gordon on the home farm SW 28-13-12. This land was homesteaded first by his great Uncle Alex Lobb, who sold to Uncle Stanley Patterson, who then sold it to Jim’s father David in 1919. Jim purchased the farm in 1960. He was proud that the farm had been continually in the family since 1899. In 1999 the family held a great celebration of its centennial. Jim loved having family get-togethers. This was very important to him. He instigated the family day which he started in summer of 1984 on the Patterson home farm. This celebration, although having changed locations, remains to this day, with the last one being July 16th of this year. Jim was a great story teller, some of it fiction and some of it good memories of times he was grateful to be part of. Recently, he was seen on the public access channel as master of ceremonies for the Bear Creek School Cairn Dedication celebration. He was clearly comfortable in front of large groups of people, making people feel at home and also offering them a good tall tale or two. He also loved to sing and play the fiddle. He was a valued member of the United Church choir for many years. He had an incredible memory, remembering dates of events that left a mark on him. Even as he was in his last days he was recalling life events he had experienced and stating his gratitude for those days. He wanted people to know he was grateful for life as he experienced it and was ready to go and be with Jean. Jim will be missed by many, his daughter Lorna (Ivan) Lougheed, his son Gordon, and grandsons Michael, Gregory and David Lougheed, sisters Reta HarperSmith, Joyce (Bob) Johnston, Norma Wiebe, Catherine Smith, and brothers Alex (Elsie), Alan and Frank (Joan), sister in law – Esther Patterson, and the many nieces and nephews of his family. He was predeceased by his father David and mother Vera, his wife Jean, his brother Robert, sister Alice & husband Grant Harper, brother in laws Jip Harper and Ken Smith, brother Donald & wife Lena, brother in law Bill Wiebe, sister Jean Uhrin, brother in law Grenville Smith, Linda Ruth (infant sister) and sister in law Joan Patterson. Jim was a humble man. He was a good neighbour and also truly appreciated his neighbours. Many thanks to all who offered support and visits to Jim. Many thanks also to Dr. Eva Berman Wong, the staff of Seven Regions Health Care Unit and the Seven Regions Community Palliative Care Gladstone. A Celebration of Life Service will take place at Gladstone United Church, Friday July 29 at 2:00 pm with Lynne Sanderson officiating. Interment will follow at the Gladstone Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Central Plains Cancer Care or Seven Regions Palliative Care, Gladstone. Clarke’s Funeral Home, Gladstone~MacGregor www.clarkesfuneralhome.com
