Local singer excited to release her first album
Local singer’s first album set for release This is the album cover for Weyburn singer Karissa Hoffart’s first album, “Life of Mine”, set for release on Oct. 17. She co-wrote the songs with Drew Lawrence, drawing on her life experiences from growing up in the Minton area. She will be holding her second drive-in concert on Oct. 4, at Oungre Memorial Regional Park, starting at 3 p.m., where she will have copies of her new album available.
Terry Fox Runs will be held virtually this year
Across Saskatchewan, people of all backgrounds from over 30 communities will be participating in the 40th Annual Terry Fox event, with the theme, “One day, Your way.” This year all events will be virtual and organizers encourage families to find their
own unique way to honor Terry and help make an impact on cancer research. It has been 40 years since Terry Fox’s Marathon of Hope awakened a movement in Canadians to come together for a single cause – to create a world without cancer.

Terry has become a hero, while the annual Terry Fox Event has become a Canadian tradition. In 2019, Saskatchew a n r a i s e d ove r $800,000 through The Terry Fox Foundation. To date, over $750 million has been raised across the globe for cancer research
in Terry’s name. All Terry Fox Runs are 100-per-cent volunteer driven and could not happen without them. In Saskatchewan alone, the foundation rely on more than 1,500 Saskatchewan residents to keep Terry’s dream alive right here on the prairies.
By Greg Nikkel We y b u r n s i n g e r Karissa Hoffart’s album, “Life of Mine”, has started to get traction with three singles already released to country radio, with the general release of the album set for Oct. 17. This is her first album, and features songs she has penned along with co-writer Drew Lawrence, drawing on her life experiences. “They basically showcase my life, and life experiences with its ups and downs,” she said, noting they are mostly in a country style with touches of folk, and one song leans towards rock. She has been singing since she was about 15, and about 10 years ago she started to write her own songs. “I honestly share a range of experiences that I’ve been through in order to help other people. It really is about making people feel the music and the lyrics,” said Karissa. Many listeners describe Karissa as genuine and true to her passion of singing. Her songs enlighten you, bringing you emotions that were once forgotten. The country recording artist grew up in the badlands country of Minton, and said they could only get country radio stations there, so she grew up listening to old-time country and rock’n’roll music. Her long-time favourite singers are Loretta Lynn and Patsy Cline, and she tries to emulate Martina McBride as a singer she looks up to. As she grew up, she discovered a natural

passion for singing, and family and friends encouraged her to take voice lessons to develop her abilities. She works hard on the farm and the same goes for her music career. Karissa is also a registered nurse who works at the Tatagwa View long-term care centre, and she has shared her love of singing with the residents many times. She aims to sing there at least once a month, and sometimes if she has time she will sit down with residents and sing for them. From opening for Tenille Arts last December to releasing her first album, Karissa does not hold back from her dreams and brings a big voice to the country industry. Previously she performed on the main stage at Craven Country Jamboree, Casino Regina, and at Telemiracle for many years now. Supporting and uniting communities of Saskatchewan, Karissa hosted her own drive-in concert in August 2020 at the Clear Lake Park south of Minton, close to the U.S. border. Coming up on Sunday, Oct. 4, she will be doing a drive-in concert at Oungre Memorial Regional Park, starting at 3 p.m., and people can listen from their vehicles or set up a lawn chair within arm’s length of their car. Tickets are $30 in advance for a carload, or $35 at the gate. Those interested in getting an advance ticket or in ordering one of her CDs can go to her website, at www. karissahoffart.com.

How to Live Courageously
Mayor proclaims Culture Days for Weyburn Alice Neufeld, arts and cultural director for the City of Weyburn, was given a copy of a proclamation by Mayor Marcel Roy, who proclaimed that Sept. 25 to Oct. 25 to be Culture Days in Weyburn. The event will be virtual this year, due to COVID-19, with over 30 videos online showcasing Photo 8601 — Greg Nikkel various aspects of arts and culture in Weyburn.
I think most of us would agree that these are interesting times we’re living in. With daily discussions about the pandemic, racial tension and political and economic unrest, we seem to find ourselves in the midst of widespread change. These are times when, as Christians, we must be courageous. We need to remember that “God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind” 2 Timothy 1:7. What is courage? Courage helped Daniel to trust in God even when he was thrown into a den of hungry lions for his faith. Courage helped David, as a young boy, to sling his sling shot against the giant, Goliath, to protect his nation. Courage is what helps someone face a long course of treatment for cancer or to help someone live their lives following the death of a loved one. Courage involves many other attributes such as trust, faith, love, wisdom and obedience. One person said “courage is putting our faith in action.” Courage is, basic-
ally, following through with our relationship in Jesus Christ no matter what the circumstance might be. Courage is acting in accordance with our beliefs and convictions as followers of Christ and trusting the Person of Jesus Christ. Courage is doing the right thing for God, no matter who may oppose you. You’ve probably heard that “courage isn’t the absence of fear; rather it’s moving forward in spite of fear.” There’s a story of two lads who went together to their dentist appointments. The first young guy said to the dentist, “Hey Doc, can you just pull a tooth right now? Don’t need any anaesthetic or anything. Just yank it out!” The dentist replied, “Are you sure you want that? So, which tooth is it you want pulled?” The boy replied, “Hey, Jimmy, show him the tooth!” True courage involves being faithful to the Lord. It also means meditating upon and knowing God’s Word,
so we know the God we serve and courage also involves trusting God no matter how he plans to use us. To Joshua in Joshua 1:6, God said, “Be strong and of good courage...” God repeated that message to Joshua about being bold and courageous or strong and courageous a few times in just the first nine verses of chapter 1! Joshua obviously needed some encouragement and had some anxiety about leading the people of Israel into the land God had given them and he needed a spiritual ‘nudge’ from God to remind him that God would be with him through the whole process. Whatever you might be going through and no matter what happens in this world around us, always remember that we have a faithful, powerful God that we can trust and count on. Don’t be discouraged or overwhelmed, but have the courage that Jesus will lead you through. Pastor Tim MacKinnon, Calvary Baptist Church

Don’t let the pandemic ruin our elections Greg Nikkel editor@weyburnreview.com
E
lections in our democratic system have a great role to play that each and every person who is eligible to vote ought to take note of: this is the primary way that the average citizen can make those in office accountable for what they have done. There will be at least two elections for those of us in Saskatchewan to be part of, and depending on what happens in Ottawa on Sept. 23, there may even be a third. The provincial election will be held on Oct. 26, and the municipal/school board elections will be held on Nov. 9 — and if Justin Trudeau and his administration falls in the confidence vote after the Throne Speech, there will be a federal vote in there also. This doesn’t sound like fun when most people are stressed out and worried about the COVID-19 pandemic. Campaigning and voting will all be different because of this pandemic and the fears around it, and unfortunately this will detract from the attention that should be paid to these elections. With both the provincial and civic elections, there are issues that need to be discussed and considered — but how will this happen without the ability to talk to the candidates who are running? All-candidate forums have been a very good way to hear all the issues in the past, but these are likely
not going to be possible with the current COVID regulations. As the electorate, we need to make sure that we can still pay proper attention to the issues, and where the various candidates stand on them. This may take some extra work on our part, and on the part of the candidates. For those running in a town or city or school board elections, it might be a bit easier, in terms of meeting people and talking to them. Voters will have questions, such as why are their taxes at the level they are, or why is recycling only picked up every second week? Why aren’t schools allowing extra-curricular activities when sports have been going on all summer and are still going on now in the community? There are likely many other local issues that people want answers to — be sure to ask those questions, and hold the councillors or trustees accountable. In relation to the provincial election, ask questions of the MLA and of the candidates if you can, and make sure they aren’t ignoring the issues that are important to you. This could be the state of highways and roads, of health care, of education or of social services, or services that are supposed to be available from the province — again, whatever is important to you and to your family. Don’t let COVID take away the importance of this election. There are issues that need answers, and as voters you are entitled to be getting those answers.
Seeing beyond sight By Linda Wegner I’m overwhelmed with all that’s going on, as are so many, and yet I find myself searching for a topic to write about this week. I did have a couple subjects in mind, but looking back at my saved articles from the past six months, I see that I’ve already written about them. Dead end. Go looking for another subject? That’s definitely easier said than done or discovered, but here’s another try: When something that’s normally easily seen and defined, can no longer be viewed…. Ah hah, perhaps that will be the one. Though definitely a stab in the dark, “something that’s normally seen” perfectly described the view out of my office window. As I’ve said before, we live on the West Coast of British Columbia, literally minutes from the shore. Across the water and usually in clear view are three islands, Savary, Texada and, of course, Vancouver Island. (Perhaps
you’ll want to look that up on a map and see where we are. Just a suggestion). Right now we are unable to see any of those because of the smoke blowing up from raging fires in California, Oregon and Washington. Eerie isn’t even a strong enough term to describe the environment. Adding to my discomfort is the fact that my brother and his family live in one of those states. Unable to cross the border and be with family on this side, we can’t see them, either. To look beyond all these conditions and see the protecting hand of God in our lives sometimes challenges us more than we’d thought it ever would. “There are some things I may not know There are some places I can’t go But I am sure of this one thing My God is real for I can feel Him in my soul” (Don Gibson) Keep looking unto Jesus!

Logos and videos of the sponsors were shown on the screen before each movie, including the Weyburn Review / This Week, the media partners for the event. The movies shown were Lion King and Twister.
The City of Weyburn opened its indoor pool for the fall and winter seasons on Sept. 14, and new rules and regulations are in place due to COVID-19 that patrons should be aware of. Registration is required for public, lane and senior swims and opens at 6 a.m., two days in advance of the available swim times. Swimmers can register up to the day of the swim but spots are limited to a certain capacity. Registration is online at the City’s website (www. weyburn.ca/weyburn-leisure-centre) but can also be completed over the phone during WLC business hours. Patrons will be asked screening questions regarding their health during registration. Please do not enter the facility if you have a fever, cough or shortness of breath.

YouthBiz competition open for entries from SE Sask students
YouthBiz is celebrating its 14th year in southeast Saskatchewan. YouthBiz is a business competition designed for Grade 6 to 12 students in the Community Futures (CF) Sunrise regional area. The contest promotes entrepreneurship, encouraging young people to explore the world of small business. Since it was started by CF Sunrise in 2007, approximately 2,600 students from southeast Saskatchewan have competed for more than $26,000 in
prize money. To enter YouthBiz, students simply come up a fantastic business idea, write about it and create an audio commercial for their business. Then they are asked to submit their entry to CF Sunrise on or before the contest deadline of Thursday, November 19, 2020. This year, the YouthBiz contest will be pivoting, as organizers hope that focusing on the creative side of business will be engaging for the students, and easy to imple-
ment in the classroom. “We know that school looks a little different for everyone this year, so YouthBiz has changed too. This year our hope is that students really showcase their creativity and imagination in their entries to the 2020 YouthBiz contest. We’ve redesigned the entry requirements to focus on that,” commented Verna O’Neill, General Manager of CF Sunrise. “Last year, approximately 210 students in southeast Saskatchewan

dealing with a back injury, and he was cut in his first event back. He entered the Safeway Open, held at the Silverado Resort and Spa in Napa, Calif., and posted rounds of 74 and 75 on the Par 72 course. The cut off was set at -5, so DeLaet was not able to continue after his second round, with a total of 73 PGA players
not making the cut at this event. Since the Weyburnborn player turned pro in 2006, DeLaet has had three second-place finishes and three third-place finishes, with 33 top 10 finishes in PGA events. He has played in 182 PGA events and made the cut 124 times, and has finished as high as eighth in the FedEx Cup standings.
The Estevan Oilfield Technical Society (OTS) was able to host a successful Oilmen’s golf event on Sept. 11 at the TS&M Woodlawn Golf Course, with Weyburn golfer Rick Hallberg taking the top prize. The revised tournament was originally scheduled to be a scramble, but the OTS went with an 18-hole individual tournament instead. Hallberg was the winner with a 3-under-par 69. They did not have individual flight winners. “We wanted to stick with the 63-year tradition of having a singles champion. It’s one of the major stops on the Estevan golf tour for the year,” said Sernick. A total of 179 golfers entered. Normally it would be played over three days in June, with 18-hole and 36-hole champions crowned, and about 250300 golfers, but due to COVID-19, it was just a one-day showdown in September. “We were hoping to fill the day up, and the day did fill up. We started tee times at 7:30 a.m., and the last one was 3 p.m.,” said Tony Sernick, who co-chaired the event with Conrad Meili. “We were a little concerned at the start that the last few groups may not fin-

ish, but as far as I knew, the last group did finish. They needed headlights on the green, but they got it in.” Given the current economic climate and the changes made for this year, the OTS was hoping to attract at least 100 golfers, and the turnout soared past their expectations. The golfers were pleased with the format and the opportunity to get out there with their friends and play. “Everybody was obviously happy to see each other, and it just felt a little better this year,” said Sernick. The tournament didn’t have its traditional supper at the Power Dodge Curling Centre, either, but they were able to serve a steak lunch or supper to all of the entrants as they finished their round. “Hats off to the golf course and their staff,” said Sernick.

Nominations for council candidates open Sept. 22
Open house held for Weyburn Scouts

Scout Venturer Matthew Soles, centre, explained some of the activities that Scouts get to partake in to a prospective member at an open house held on Sunday afternoon at the River Park gazebo. With COVID restrictions, the Scouts are not allowed to have any indoor meetings or overnight camping at this time, so they will be holding day camps and other outdoor activities this fall. Registrations have opened online.
The period of nominations for mayor or councillor for Weyburn’s city council will open on Tuesday, Sept. 22, and will close Wednesday, Oct. 7, with the civic election day to be held on Nov. 9. For someone to be nominated to run for the position of mayor or councillor, they need the signatures of five residents of Weyburn, all eligible to vote in the city’s election. They must be 18 years of age, a Canadian citizen, have resided in Saskatchewan for the past six months, and a resident of the city or on land now in the city for the three-month period preceding the date the nomination papers are filed. Nominees also will need to provide public disclosure of who their employer is, and of corporate interests, partnerships,
business arrangements, property holdings, contracts and agreements. After nominations close at 4 p.m. on Oct. 7, the notice of polls will be issued on Oct. 9, with the advance polls to be held on Saturday, Oct. 31 from 1-5 p.m., and on Thursday, Nov. 5 from 5-9 p.m., both times held in the Sun Room at the Weyburn Leisure Centre. Election day is Monday, Nov. 9, with polls open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. This is also the election day for trustees of the two school divisions, Southeast Cornerstone for the public schools, and Holy Family for the Catholic schools. After this, those candidates who are declared as elected to council will have an orientation during the day on Nov. 16, and their inaugural council meeting will be that evening at 5 p.m. in council chambers.
are flying to, so the team can take the patient directly into the operating room when they land, he explained. Each helicopter has a team of four, including two pilots, a paramedic and a nurse. If a pilot is sick and unable to fly, they are unable to go out until a replacement pilot is available to the crew. In addition, STARS has access to an emergency transport physician if the crew thinks one might be needed for a particular patient, such as the need for a surgical procedure right away. In taking questions from
the Rotary members, he was asked how important it will be for Weyburn’s new hospital to have a helipad. His reply is that the closer a helipad can be to a hospital, the better it is for the patient, as currently STARS has to land at the Weyburn airport, and there is a delay to get the patient out to the airport for the helicopter to pick him or her up. Asked about the costs to the patient for transport by STARS, Prokopetz noted that STARS does not bill the patient, but Sask Health is billed $425 for a patient pickup.
STARS upgrading helicopters in Saskatchewan
By Greg Nikkel The STARS air ambulance service is currently upgrading their fleet of helicopters and are continuing to offer emergency medical response anywhere in Saskatchewan, members of the Weyburn Rotary Club heard in a virtual presentation on Zoom on Thursday. The presentation was made as the Rotary Club will be doing an internal fundraiser for STARS, as normally they would be holding their golfball drop at this time of year, with proceeds going to STARS. The fundraiser, like most fundraisers in the community, was not held due to COVID restrictions. Shari Lemon and paramedic Jason Prokopetz did the presentation, explaining what STARS does and how much it costs, and took questions afterward from those watching. Prokopetz has been a paramedic for 25 years now, and does community education in addition to his duties as a flight team member for STARS at their Regina base. Lemon noted that STARS is a non-profit emergency medical transport service, and they started in 1985 in Alberta “out of necessity”, with 45,000 missions flown from their six bases since starting up. In Saskatchewan, they have flown 5,500 missions to over 500 communities in the last eight years, with 884 flown just last year. “We average eight missions a day across the provinces, or three a day in Saskatchewan,” said Lemon, noting they have flown 136 missions to Weyburn over the past eight years, with 11 missions since the start of 2020. They have
flown 189 missions to Estevan, including 15 times so far this year. The COVID pandemic has had an impact on STARS, and the service is making sure that staff and patients are kept safe, said Prokopetz, who noted they went through a lot of N-95 medical masks at the start of the lockdowns, but have since moved to reusable masks which are far more practical and comfortable to wear. He said that STARS will fly a COVID patient, or even one who is suspected of having it, taking any precautions necessary. The dispatching of helicopters to emergencies is coordinated by the Emergency Link Centre in Calgary for all six bases, and they operate a 24-hour seven-days-a-week service. They coordinate any 911 call and consider all of the relevant factors from several sources at the same time, such as the weather and severity of the trauma involved. For helicopters in Saskatchewan, a new 145 model is based in Saskatoon, while the Regina base has the older DK117, a smaller version of that heli-
copter. The Regina base is expecting to get a new 145 helicopter towards the end of the year or early in the new year. Prokopetz explained the difference is the newer helicopters are 10 per cent bigger, 10 per cent faster and can go farther. It has a top speed of 275 km an hour and a range of 650 kilometres, while the older one can go 250 km/h, with a 500-km range, which is 250 kilometres out and 250 back in. “I sat on one of the new helicopters once. It’s very exciting for me to know it’s coming here to Regina. We’re all kind of excited to see the new helicopters,” said Prokopetz. The price tag to replace all of the helicopters from the six bases is $138 million. The federal government has contributed $65 million towards this goal, with $13 million each from the Saskatchewan and Alberta provincial governments, plus donations from other organizations and groups. This leaves STARS to raise the remaining $10 million by the end of 2021, when the last of the new helicopters will be delivered. This fundraising goal
is also over and above the ongoing need for operating money, with the two Saskatchewan bases costing $21 million a year to run. Weyburn’s Dan Cugnet is the chair of the fundraising committee for Saskatchwan for the new helicopters, and former premier Brad Wall is the overall chair for the committee for all six bases. As a part-time paramedic for a ground EMS service, Prokopetz noted the main differences between a ground ambulance and a STARS helicopter. He pointed out the helicopters have a ventilator, for example, carry two units of O-negative blood and a blood gas machine so they can do some blood work while they are in the air, and can adjust the ventilator accordingly. They can also do intubation when it’s needed, with video guidance provided by a doctor on the ground, and they can do ultrasounds as well to check for internal injuries of a patient, such as if their spleen is bleeding or if there is liquid build-up in the body’s cavity. They can transmit all of the data to the trauma team at whichever hospital they

He was predeceased by his parents, William and Margaret (nee Temple) Bornholdt; sister and brother-in-law, Jean and Nelson Hay; nephews, Neil Hay and George Hay; niece Kathy Hill.Doc is survived by his sister Margaret (Jack) Hill; his brother Dick (Jo-Anne) Bornholdt; nieces and nephews: Marilyn (Jim) Yourex, Diane (Rick) Muir, Mickey (Sandra) Hill, Dana (Kathy) Hill, Colleen Hill, Karen (Dale) Dixon, Jim Hill, Darla Bornholdt (Kim), Donna Bornholdt (Blair), Bill (Heather) Bornholdt and their families. Doc was born in Weyburn, SK on February 2, 1943, the youngest of 4 children. In spite of health issues he endured as a young boy, he was able to live his best life. Following school, Doc worked various jobs namely in the meat processing industry. He took over the farm in 1969 when his Dad passed away. The farm was sold in 2006. Doc’s life revolved around family and community. Although he did not have children of his own he was involved with his nieces and nephews and their families. He always knew who was doing what and where they were. You never knew when he would show up; usually at a sporting event. His involvement extended to his great nieces and nephews, until his health declined. He remained interested and always wanted to know how everyone was doing. Doc loved any family gathering the food, card games and noisy socializing. Doc was all about his community. He was a tireless volunteer selling tickets for every community fundraiser - the rink, church, Drop-In-Centre and many other local groups. He loved to be involved in every aspect and served as a member on numerous community organizations. He also served on the Town Council and the RM of Brokenshell. Doc was heavily involved with the Yellow Grass Lions Club during its active years. He had the opportunity to attend conventions near and far, meeting many people along the way. Because of his friendly, social demeanor, he left his mark wherever he went and whoever he interacted with. If you met him, you were now his friend. To this day, no matter where you are or where you go, everyone knows “Doc”.

LEETA LOUISE (WHITE) WHITROW
January 16, 1926 August 29, 2020 Leeta Whitrow was born in the family home of Horace and Florence White at Murray Harbour, Prince Edward Island. She studied to be a secretary at Prince of Wales College in Charlottetown and worked for the provincial government prior to moving to Calgary, Alberta to attend Alberta Bible College. In 1949 she married Ralph Whitrow. Ralph was a minister and their first ministry together was a church plant at Big River, Saskatchewan. Their three children were born there. In 1959, they moved back to Alberta where they served congregations in Great Bend, Taber and Wrentham. In 1974, they returned to Saskatchewan to Yellow Grass, Ralph’s hometown. Leeta worked for Canada Post, first as an assistant then as post mistress. In the early 90’s they returned to Calgary, where Ralph and Leeta provided support for daughter Flo and family during her battle with cancer. They returned toYellow Grass where they remained until 2010 when Ralph and Leeta moved to Imperial Place, a retirement home in Surrey, British Columbia. Imperial Place was conveniently located a few minutes from son Stirling and family. Leeta was always active and enjoyed cooking, baking, sewing, and gardening. Her guestbooks tell of warm hospitality shared with many. Her well kept diaries tell of the enjoyment she received from writing. Most days she wrote in her diary and could usually quickly check her diaries to supply details of her life and that of her family. She was very active in church and community. She received immense enjoyment from her involvement in the Weyburn Horticulture Society. Every year she entered baking, flowers and garden produce in the Weyburn Fair. Later at Imperial Place, she made many friends and seldom missed an exercise class, spellingbee, or any other scheduled event. She took daily walks on the track around the complex and would know how many miles she had clocked each week. She used her computer to the day she went to the hospital. The computer was one of her greatest frustrations but it also gave her great pleasure. She used it to faithfully email what she called her “Monday Letter.” This letter kept her in contact with her family and many friends from every era of her life. She enjoyed writing this letter, especially when it brought replies. She was adept at using Google search and loved to share the information she discovered with friends and family. Leeta Whitrow died peacefully on Saturday, August 29, 2020. She was predeceased by her husband Ralph (2012), daughter Flo (1993), and by her sisters Ruby Mackay and Cecilia Carver and her brother Murray White. She is survived by her daughter Monelle (Ron) Fraser, son Stirling (Christina), son-in-law Keith Traptow; grand children, Kyle, Brendan, Tyler, Kayd, Teal, Carter, Ellory, Denton and Elliott; and great-grand children, Abbi, Mattias, Jace, Isla and Florence; and by her sister Vivian Graham.

By Debra Kessler, 306-442-4201 Pangman — Pangman School students and staff will be once again proudly participating in the Terry Fox run on Friday, Sept. 25.
