The new 2015 calendar is honoring local curlers. Two of them made it into the Curling Hall of Fame, six are in the Legends of Curling, and many others were winners of Provincial and Canadian Championships.

Those honored include Mens, Womens, Mixed, Junior and High School teams. There was a calendar launch held in Delisle on October 23rd, About 100 people attended and had a chance to visit with some of the local stars as well as watch a video produced for the event. In a town that has just reached the 1,000 population mark, there is a rich history in sports accomplishments in hockey,

Lest We Forget
Every year on November 11th we take pause to remember those that have given so much to fight our past wars for us. When I was a child being taught about Remembrance Day, I thought that “Remembrance” and “Lest We Forget” were phrases we learnt to keep alive the memory of these people. But it is more than that. They said that World War One was the war to end all wars. But then came World War Two, then Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, and on, and on, and on. I have since learnt that war will never be over. November 11th is not just a day to remember the brave men and women of the past but to also remember the things that cause these wars.

RM Review
When Osama bin Laden orchestrated the attacks of 9-11 in the US, giving birth to the evolutions of Al Qaeda, ISIL, ISIS and lone wolf attacks that have followed, it seemed the world was at war again. Even after the US assassinated bin Laden, the war he started still continues. Armed with the power of the internet and social media, others have stepped up to replace him, and continue to reach out to those that are vulnerable, uneducated, unemployed, hungry or just plain unstable, and indoctrinate them into acting out the sick, radical obsessions that they are promoting. When Cpl. Corillo was so cowardly attacked at the War Memorial in Ottawa, it drove home again, for me, the fact that war continues every day. The thing we really need to remember is that war will never be over. We will never have the war to end all wars. There will always be another Hitler, bin Laden, whoever, to replace the previous one. And as long as there are human beings on this planet, there will always be someone, or some group, that becomes obsessed with power and wants to take over the world. We will always be fighting against those that do not want people to live free and in peace, and are willing to die themselves to take it from us. This is what we must never forget. Freedom is not free. We should enjoy our freedom every day, and not live in fear, but as Canadians, we must always ‘stand on guard for thee’ or risk losing everything that those before us fought so hard for, and gave their lives for. Lest We Forget....

No Parking on Rayburn Avenue in Vanscoy
T
he Village of Vanscoy has passed a new Vehicle Bylaw. The biggest change is the creation of a winter no parking zone on Rayburn Avenue between Main Street & 1st Street W. from Oct. 30 to Apr. 30. This is the street that runs parallel to Highway 7 in front of the Vanscoy Hotel. The street is very narrow, which becomes an

www.rmreview.net
issue in the winter months, as snow clearing equipment cannot fit down the street if cars are parked on it. Additional snow, from clearing adjacent Highway 7, also gets pushed onto the street, further narrowing it. The Village is aware of the inconvenience this may cause residents on Rayburn Avenue, but advises that there is extra parking on the recreation grounds.

SCHOOL REPORTS
VANSCOY SCHOOL Since the beginning of the school year, the staff and students at Vanscoy School have been busy participating in a variety of activities and planning for campaigns and upcoming events within the school and in the surrounding community. So far, students have participated in a number of activities such as Cross-Country, in which students from grade 4-8 participated in daily noon hour runs as well as competing and doing very well in a number of meets including Langham and districts in Delisle. Grade 7 and 8 students participated and competed in a number of golf events throughout September. Students also did very well in these competitions. Other sports that have been taking place in the school have been grade 7/8 boys and girls volleyball and students are enjoying playing in exhibition games against teams from the area including Asquith and Perdue. The Pass, Punt and Kick program has been a success seeing students participate and place very well in the competition. Congratulations to all students who participated and took part in all of the athletics so far in the year. Keep up the good work. In other events, students have been busy fundraising and organizing for the Terry Fox Run where they raised over $6600! Some of the incentives that students received as a result of their hard work were a school wide trip to a Corn Maze, pizza parties in the grade 5 and 7/8 classrooms courtesy of the Torresan
Family. Students also raised enough to watch Mr. Derdall and Mr. Mackay have their heads shaved and for other staff members to kiss a pig. Thank you to the Torresan family for providing the pizza lunches, Grant Rourke for offering his barbering skills and to the McMorrow family for providing the piglet for staff to smooch. Students are currently participating in a fundraising campaign for UNICEF and plan to surpass their goal from last year in which the school raised the third highest amount in the province. Students have been busy organizing snack sales and other fundraising activities to raise money for the campaign, which continue till the end of October. In upcoming events, 23 students from grade 6-8 will be participating in WE Day, which is coming to Saskatoon November 7th. 23 students were chosen to participate in the global event and those attending from Vanscoy school were chosen based on volunteer activities and participation in a variety of events in and around the school community. Students will also be honoring veterans by holding a Remembrance Day service on November 6th where staff and students will be treated to a performance by the schools Glee Club. Thanks to all who contributed and participated in all events happening at Vanscoy School. Contributing writers Zane Peacock and Luke Torresan
PIKE LAKE PRESCHOOL October has been a fun and busy month at Pike Lake Preschool. We started off the month with a field trip to the Western Development Museum where the kids enjoyed a horse and buggy ride. We also saw a few farm animals, the ducks being the favourite! Then we got some time to explore inside the museum. The field trip led to a unit for the 4-year olds on different types of animals. They made horses, jellyfish, and tigers, with a forest animal still to come. We also celebrated Thanksgiving making paper plate turkeys and handprint turkeys where we wrote what we are thankful for on the feathers.
Both groups also celebrated Orange Day making pumpkins and pumpkin chains, eating orange food, and playing "orange" games. For Number 2 Day, the 3-year olds made a bat and counted many body parts that come in 2s. The 4-year olds glued pairs of items on a big 2. Our Halloween parties will be this Thursday. Our bats are on the walls already and there's a big witch to put up as well, thanks to an anonymous donor. The 3-year olds will be parading at Pike Lake School in the morning and the 4year olds will join Pike Lake School in the afternoon for some Halloween activities. I can't wait to see all the costumes! November will find us celeDelisle Branch brating the number 3 and the colour brown. We will 201 - 1st St W also be having a space day 306 - 493 - 8288 and our annual pajama day. The 4-year olds will be doing a health unit, learning about germs, dental health (a good topic, especially right after Halloween!), nutrition, and emotions. Monday Wednesday Friday Noon - 4pm Noon - 4pm & 7pm - 9pm 10am - 5pm Have a happy Halloween! ReqUeST or Renew books at www.wheatland.sk.ca

PIKE LAKE SCHOOL
We are in the full swing of learning at Pike Lake School. September flew by in a blur and October continues to be filled with activity and learning; we participated in an amazing school wide Gym Blast, celebrated Education Week, and ventured out on our first field trip to the Persephone Theatre in Saskatoon to watch an awesome rendition of the classic tale of Pinocchio. What a busy and exciting time for learning! In recognition of the Education Week theme “Supporting and Celebrating Success,” Pike Lake School participated in numerous activities marking this most important of weeks. Kicking off our week of celebrating education, was a full day visit from aboriginal artist Ray Keighley. Mr. Keighley led students through an art workshop focused around the Medicine Wheel. In the course of the day, Mr. Keighley also shared some riveting stories about his experiences with nature and his experiences as an artist. All members of Pike Lake School were fascinated and so grateful to have the opportunity to learn about creating art in a new way and to learn more about the native culture from Ray Keighley. On the 21st and 22nd of October the area of Learning Support was highlighted at Pike Lake School. Much of our student success can be attributed to the support from the many resources we have available to us in the Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD). These include various aspects of our Special Education Resource Team (Occupational Therapist, Speech and Language Pathologist, Registered Psychologist, Counsellor) as well as our School Superintendent. The professionals in each of the aforementioned resources, provide us with direction and the tools we need to best lead our students towards success in their every school day. We were fortunate to have some of these important resource people come to share with the staff and students their role in supporting and celebrating student successes throughout the year! Speaking of great supports, every academic day, students are transported to and from their homes by bus to attend Pike Lake School. Our bus driver, Jean Lingnau, provides for the safety and wellbeing of each of her students travelling on her bus daily. As an extension of
our school day, Jean is an integral part of our school day and provides exemplary support for our students outside of the classroom as they travel to and from their school destination. We celebrated our amazing and dedicated Bus Driver on Wednesday, October 22nd and acknowledged how Jean conscientiously fulfils her role as a bus driver in our community. To cap off our Education Week Festivities we celebrated the completion of two large school projects. These were achieved as result of the partnership with school, the wonderful Pike Lake School Community Council and the Pike Lake Community as a whole. As many local residents are aware, Pike Lake School marked its 100th Anniversary in the spring of 2013! Indeed, we have been successful in educating our community for a very long time! Part of this celebration included collecting and framing pennies for each year of our 100 year existence. The plaque is now on display in our school hallway. During Education Week we enjoyed a presentation about the penny project. Moreover, each student received a “lucky” penny keepsake to make a wish in regards to their academic success and growth in the coming school year. The final celebration of Education Week was the much anticipated installation of the new swing set for our Pike Lake School playground. On Friday, October 24th, 2014 at 1:00 p.m., a group of handy volunteers along with PSSD staff members joined with wrenches, wheel barrows, and ladders, to erect our new swing set! So exciting! Thank you so much to everyone who volunteered and do know our school is so thankful to our community. We could not thrive in the manner that we do, without the dedicated support of our surrounding Pike Lake Community! On Wednesday, November 5th our school will be holding our annual assembly to honor our Canadian Veterans and Peacekeepers. We encouragingly invite you to attend this assembly which will begin at 10:45 a.m. and is open to the general public. We hope to see you there to help us pay tribute those who have fought in all the wars and to those who are currently helping with peacekeeping efforts.

Vanscoy School Reports Record $6,600 Donation to Terry Fox Foundation students in their efforts. The school passed all three fundraising milestones and therefore the students earned all three rewards on Thursday, October 9: touring a corn maze tour, teachers kissing a pig and shaving the heads of the Principal and VicePrincipal. “It was a fantastic day for everyone,” said McKay. Fundraising efforts included collecting pledges, a bake sale, a lemonade sale and a pancake breakfast. “Although it was the student body raising the money, the entire community gets behind the event,” McKay added. In addition, the school hosted a Terry Fox Walk on September 24. A circular course was set up around town for participants to walk or run around. Know-
anscoy School has raised over $6600 for the Terry Fox Foundation this fall. For this Kindergarten to Grade 8 school with 155 students, this impressive fundraising total is equivalent to about $40 per student. "The spirit of Terry Fox is alive and well in the hearts of students at Vanscoy School,” explained Vice-Principal Darin McKay. He said there is a culture of respect and admiration for Terry Fox at the school as the students are well aware of Fox’s bravery and sacrifice. Each year, Vanscoy School embarks on a fundraising campaign to raise money for the Terry Fox Foundation. This year, the school’s senior students set up fundraising incentives to encourage
ing Terry's work ethic, many people chose to run multiple laps around the course. McKay said the fundraising for Terry Fox is in addition to the school’s work for
UNICEF and the Diabetes Association. In fact, Vanscoy School is one of the top three schools in the province in terms of funds raised for UNICEF.

Waiting by the window Excitement pouring out of me Food on the table House cleaned 2:58 Two minutes till his arrival My fingers tingling 2:59 Did anything go wrong? Is he in one peace? A taxi pulls up A tall figure appears Is it him? It has to be The rain hides his face I run out to him No shoes I don’t care I need to see him It’s not my son He hands me a letter My little boy didn’t make it He didn’t survive the war 3:00
Daddy please come home That’s why I’m writing you this pome Why are you so far away? Tomorrow is my 15th birthday Mommy misses you And I miss you too Hey how was your day Today is my birthday!! I love you And mommy loves you too Now mommy is crying I don’t want to think about you dying But yet we got a letter People keep saying that it will get better Now I know my daddy isn’t coming home Why do I feel so alone? I wear a poppy day after day I really wish that you could have stayed

by Connor J.
“Remember”
I remember How WW1 and WW2 Affected the world But it never stops. War is a disease That can never be cured With lives of the men and women That fight in the war Why we fight for freedom.
When I left the air was crisp, and cold. People wished me the best. I felt like I was the lonesome soldier. I knew I wasn’t, I was with thousands of others. They felt the same way too. They told me how lonesome they were, And how their families loved them. When I returned, My family wasn’t there. Our house was destroyed, Much the same as others. I know millions will remember. But now I know, I was the lonesome, but remembered, Soldier.
“Was It Worth It?” By Meagan K. Looking back Was it worth it? The pain, sacrifice and dying The graveyards of thousands, some unknown The explosions, the demolished homes Was it worth it? The fear and horror that was everywhere The families that lost members The nightmares the soldiers brought home Was it worth it? We now Remember The last post, poppies, the moment of silence The laying of wreaths, lest we forget The courage, bravery of fighting for our country To keep our rights, freedom and peace Was it worth it? The world is still in turmoil The terrorists, shootings, violence Some problems remain unsolved So was it really worth it? It is always worth it To keep our land glorious and free.

Once a soldier by the shore Watch the sunrise and the sunset Thinking life is all a bet All the fortune and all the fame Is one’s life just a game Freedom costs such a price Is war worth the sacrifice They fought for their lives to live in peace Even though our soldiers would decrease So wear a poppy to show that we care For all the loved ones that are out there Many soldiers in the battle lost their life Because they wanted to protect their wife Staring at the field of poppies Knowing there are thousands of bodies Soldiers did their part But they loved each other from their heart

Wounded soldiers surround the battlefield This war has come to an end We wear a poppy to show how much we care. Remember, remember the 11th of November. All I can think of is the families left behind We wear a poppy to remember. End of World War 1. We served our country We wear a poppy to show respect. Most soldiers died during this war. There I stand proud with my fellow soldiers We wear a poppy for the soldiers. Everyone was mournful. Proud to be Canadian We were a poppy for their family. Many families lost dads, husbands and brothers. To be free We wear a poppy for freedom. But even though it’s over, witnesses will suffer. To be welcome We wear a poppy for the life’s that were taken. Right before the soldiers’ eyes innocent people lost their lives. To be loved We wear a poppy for all the soldiers that came back. And still people live in pain hoping war won’t start again. We wear a poppy for the moms and dads. Now we sell poppies to raise money to help ex-soldiers and their families. We wear a poppy for the kids.

Knowing the weight of an animal has value at several points during the course of production. Actual birth and weaning weights can assist with evaluating past bull purchases in order to make decisions regarding future bull purchases. Accurate doses of parasite control products can be used when the weight is known, avoiding costs associated with over application or the consequences of poor product performance if not enough product is applied. Marketing decisions become easier to make
when weights can be taken rather than guesstimated by eye. The Saskatchewan Livestock Traceability Rebate can assist with the purchase of equipment used for tracking, such as ultrarugged IP67 rugged scale heads and scanners.

I grew up gaining experience in the best of both worlds; growing up on a farm and studying agriculture in university. I was already on the agriculture path when I completed high school, but then I took my first entomology course at the University of Manitoba, and I was hooked! From there, my interest in agriculture took off. There are issues in agriculture, as in any industry, and being one of the people creating solutions – that’s exciting!

These half-day workshops are focused towards Grade 9 through Grade 12 students, giving an introduction to the agriculture industry, information on industry labour and why agriculture matters (more than ever). Students will be given a hands-on look of agriculture on the various career paths as well as information on post-secondary education. Teachers must register their classes before October 18, 2014 using the form available on www.agribition.com/thinkag-careerexpo.
Recent university graduates often wonder whether they made the right choice with their degree. However, even if you did not take agriculture in university, various science or business degrees with proper experience will help. Agriculture is constantly evolving. Whether you’re working for a crop input company, implement dealer, marketing or accounting firm, or even the government in the Ministry of Agriculture, the opportunities are endless.

henever the media want to stir the blood they can list the salaries of the top CEOs. Some have reached the level of 200 times the take-home pay of their average employee. But the issue does not stop there because that is only a small fraction of
the wealth held by the top ten percent of the population. I have been reading the tomb “Capital in the Twenty-first Centry” by Thomas Picketty, the French economist who defines the extent of the problem. The accumulation of wealth by a segment of the population is not new. As a matter of fact, in the Victorian Age it was more unbalanced than it is today. It took the First and Second World Wars to bleed some of it away. However since the 1970s the trend has been moving up sharply and there are no signs of the spread between the super-rich and the middle class individuals is tapering off. According to Picketty this current period of slow growth accentuates the difference because wealth continues to grow while productivity which fuels middle class incomes is more or less stagnant.

O
Municipalities should also consider the P3 approach to access funding through the federal government’s new $53 billion Building Canada Fund (BCF). To help them take advantage of this, our government is reintroducing and expanding the popular Saskatchewan Infrastructure Growth Initiative (SIGI). The program provides interest rate subsidies for up to five years on municipal borrowing for infrastructure development. The original program, which provided nearly $200 million in borrowing to the benefit 82 communities, will also be opened to Saskatchewan First Nations.

Throne Speech Details
ur Government’s Speech from the Throne opened the Fourth Session of the Twenty-Seventh Legislature in Regina. The Speech highlighted our strong, growing province, the strength and determination of our people and outlined our plan to keep Saskatchewan strong. Our focus is the economy. When our economy is strong, our province and its people are strong. A strong economy gives us a broader tax base and more resources to invest in health care, housing, education, infrastructure and a better quality of life for individuals and families. Our government will continue with international engagement and trade missions, as well as our work to reduce barriers and expand free trade. We are also working to ensure opportunities for local businesses are maximized within existing trade agreements. Priority Saskatchewan, a new agency, is leading a cross-government review of current tendering practices. Saskatchewan is an exporting province. To help meet our government’s goal of doubling exports by 2020, we will introduce a new growth tax incentive tied to the creation of new jobs by manufacturers and processors as they expand sales outside Saskatchewan. This will also include an incentive tied to the creation of new corporate and head office jobs in Saskatchewan. A strong Saskatchewan requires a strong, skilled workforce. Employment numbers have hit record highs and unemployment has reached record lows – which is good – but we continue to face a shortage of skilled labour. In some cases, people are unable to compete for jobs because they lack the skills required to secure employment. This is why we have invested heavily in Adult Basic Education (ABE). This coming fiscal year, we will again increase the number of ABE training seats to a total of 9,355 while boosting apprenticeship seats to a total of 7,000. Our government is committed to tackling our province’s infrastructure deficit. Since 2008, nearly $16 billion has been spent on capital projects that include hospitals, highways, schools and power plants. This year alone nearly $3 billion has been committed to renew and expand infrastructure but there is still more to do. To meet those challenges, we are leveraging the forces of innovation and competition through the use of public private partnerships (P3s). SaskBuilds has already initiated a number of P3s that will save millions of dollars.

ovember is such a great month for the Arts in Delisle!
The Community Players are putting on their play, Don’t Tell Mother on November 7th, 8th & 9th. The 7th & 8th are dinner Theatre nights, tickets are $30, doors open @ 5:30, dinner at 6. The 9th is a Dessert Theatre, tickets are $18, doors open at 12:30. Tickets are available at the Town Office. Call Linda Kielo for more info 493-2963. The Friday Night Concert Series starts on the 28th! Our Concert Series line up this year looks like another great treat! Kicking off the series on November 28th is Fire Lily a group of 5 women who all sing and play instruments. The image of them sends a chill down my back, what a wonderful way to start things off. Neil Roston a fabulous blues musician who hails from Delisle will bring his Trio to the series on January 23rd. March 27th I’m excited for Sylvia & Friends, one of the most delightful concerts every year. This year I’m hosting Elizabeth Bekolay and Josh Shultz, who use many different elements in their music, from spoken word, rapping, singing, flute, drums, guitar and more! They will do some songs together and also perform separately. Finally we will close the series out with Rosetown based Cashback, a Johnny Cash tribute band. These three musicians play wonderfully and spin so many wonderful threads of stories and information throughout their concert about themselves and the man in black. If you’re a country fan, you won’t want to miss this one. Ticket prices have not changed since the series began so many years ago and remain at $40 for all 4 concerts. Heck, you can hardly take the family out for dinner for that price anymore, if you would prefer to buy single tickets at the door, they are $15. All the concerts start at 7:30pm and are followed by an opportunity to
meet the artists and have coffee and treats. There will be no potlucks this year before each concert. If you have not ever purchased tickets I hope you will consider coming out this year and seeing what it’s all about. It’s so lovely to have events right in town, keeping us off the highways and out of Walmart & Superstore. (Yes, coming to the concert series, actually saves you money! ) Make it a girl’s night out, or date night and join us, bring all your friends, we’d love to have you. Call Sylvia @ 306.493.2955 to reserve your tickets. Mark your calendars for November 15th when we are going to kick up our heels again and Learn to Dance. This year we are concentrating on learning the basic steps that will get everyone through a family wedding dance or any such dancing event that might come up in your life. So join us for the two-step, waltz and polka! Remember, no babysitter needed, bring the whole family along and if you think your dancing days are over, just come along and enjoy the fun. 7-9pm at the Delisle Senior Centre. Arts Council Meetings are open to everyone so if you are interested in bringing your ideas and energy to our group, please call Sylvia @ 306.493.2955 to find out the date of the next meeting, cause we would love to have you.
