APES plays host to prestigious Willow Awards gala On May 14, Assiniboia Park Elementary School was chosen to be the only school in the province to host the SaskEnergy Willow Awards.

The Willow Awards is a volunteer run, non-profit organization that was established in 2001, to promote reading for Saskatchewan students. Students in participating schools receive copies of the Willow Awards Nominees books.

This year there were 30 nominees broken down into three separate categories. Three separate Willow Awards are given, one for

each category.

The Shining Willow Award (for young readers), The Diamond Willow Award (for readers grades 46) and the Snow Willow Award (for readers in grades 7-9).

Students may vote for their favorite book in any category in which they have read the minimum amount of books required. The teachers and librarian tally and submit their individual schools votes. In the first year of voting (2002), more than 5,000 students participated.

The number of ballets has increased greatly with over

Gabe Kaufmann (left) and Brodie Sabourin were two of several students who participated in mini skits representing the books nominated for the 2015 Willow Awards.

14,000 votes being submitted for the 2015 Willow Awards. Participation is free for Saskatchewan students and made possible through membership donations and sponsorship.

As host, the students are required to both host and participate in the awards ceremony and Assiniboia Park did not disappoint.

A well planned out awards ceremony included students taking on several participating roles. Two students, Gregg Wiens and Makenna Ling acted as Master/Mistress of ceremony.

Several other students became actors/actresses during the ceremony as they acted out a scene from the nominees novels.

In addition, students read letters from dignitaries, presented awards, participated in the choir by both singing and playing the recorder.

The entire Willow Awards ceremony scene was enhanced with the decorations the students had set up throughout the school and by wearing matching Willow Awards t-shirts.

As a gesture of appreciation, the school was presented with a plaque, a willow tree (to be planted at the school) and the entire collection of books from the

low Award for the book “Live to Tell” went to Lisa Harrington.

In addition to the highlight of the day being the official awards ceremony, several other activities including author readings and a run around the school with nominee and Willow Award winner David Carroll. The event

went off seamlessly and was enjoyed by all in attendance.

Congratulations to the students and staff at Assiniboia Park School.

He then became Principal of Arcola School in 2008, the position he currently holds, where he has been in some educational capacity, either as a student, teacher or administrator for just over 30 years.

During his principalship in Arcola, Hengen furthered his education and received a Masters of Education degree from Brandon University (2010).

Kevin and his wife Carrie currently reside in Arcola with their two children, Taylor and Shaleen, who both attend Arcola School.

Director of Education Lynn Little stated, "Mr. Hengen has been a tremendous leader at the school administration level.

Helping with repairs Stan Ganczar and his group of volunteers, who regularly host the Famous Ukrainian Perogy meals, donated $1,000.00 to the Tommy Douglas Centre on May 15. Pictured (l-r), volunteers Ane Robillard and Adam Ortman, Stan Ganczar, Tommy Douglas Centre treasurer Ron Wormsbecker, TDC representatives Wendy Sidloski and Rocky Sidloski, volunteers Joe Robillard and Shirley Sparks, and President of TDC Connie Nightingale. The monies will be used for roof repairs for the Tommy Douglas Centre.

Wet weather slows seeding progress Significant seeding progress was made this past week. Thirty-four per cent of the 2015 crop is now seeded, according to the Saskatchewan Agriculture Crop Report. The five-year (2010-2014) average for this time of year is nine per cent seeded.

Producers in the southwest are most advanced, with 61 per cent of the crop seeded. In the southeast, 45 per cent is seeded; the west-central region has 26 per cent seeded; the eastcentral region 16 per cent, the northeastern region 13 per cent and northwestern region has 31 per cent seeded.

Topsoil moisture conditions on cropland are rated as 10 per cent surplus, 76 per cent adequate and 14 per cent short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as six per cent surplus, 74 per cent adequate, 16 per cent short and four per cent very short. Moisture conditions vary throughout the province.

In parts of the southwestern and west-central regions, some moisture would be beneficial to get crops off to a good start. Some areas in the southeast and in the east-central region, however, still have surplus moisture.

Cool weather has resulted in slow emergence of crops. Some farmers have reported frost damage to emerged crops and alfalfa.

Rules of Saskatchewan

Teaspoons and babies

M

By Andrea Corrigan A I receive a lot of input from family and friends who Y are in the farming community about just how things B E are run in rural Saskatchewan. I was raised in Estevan T but had (and still do) have acquaintances in the "field" H that like to keep me "informed".

A One of my acquaintances recently sent this to me and T’ S I thought I would pass it along to my readers. It pretty J well sums up any non-believers on the subject. Enjoy!

U It's entitled, JUST SO YOU KNOW..........THE RULES S T OF RURAL SASKATCHEWAN ARE AS FOLLOWS: 1. Pull your droopy pants up. You look like an idiot. M 2. Turn your cap straight, your head isn't crooked. E 3. Let's get this straight; it's called a 'dirt road.' I drive a pickup truck because I want to. No matter how slow you drive, you're going to get dust on your Lexus. Drive it or get out of my way.

4. They are cattle. They're live steaks. That's why they smell funny to you. But they smell like money to us. Get over it. Don't like it? Hwy 1 goes east and west, Hwy 6 goes north and south.

Pick one and leave.

5. So you have a $60,000 car. We're impressed. We have $395,000 combines that are driven only 3 weeks a year.

6. So every person in rural Saskatchewan waves. It's called 'being friendly', try to understand the concept.

7. If that cell phone rings while an eight-point buck and three does are coming in, we WILL shoot it out of your hand. You better hope you don't have it up to your ear at the time.

8. Yeah, we eat meat and potatoes. You really want sushi & caviar? It's available at the corner bait shop.

9. The 'Opener' refers to the first day of deer hunting season. It's a religious holiday held the closest Saturday to the first of November.

10. We open doors for ladies. That is applied to all ladies, regardless of age.

11. There's little here for 'vegetarians' on the menu. Order steak. Or you can order the Chef's Salad and pick off the two pounds of ham & turkey.

12. Our meals have three main dishes: meat, vegetables and potatoes. We use three spices: salt, pepper and ketchup.

13. You bring 'coke' into my house, it better be brown, wet and served over ice.

14. You bring 'Mary Jane' into my house, she better be cute, know how to shoot, drive a truck and have long hair.

15. Saskatchewan Hockey League and Minor Hockey is as important here as the Calgary Flames and the Edmonton Oilers and more fun to watch.

16. We have more golf courses per capita than anywhere else in the world. But don't hit the water hazards -- it spooks the fish.

17. Three inches of snow & ice isn't a blizzard - it's a vacation. The pickups with snow blades and tractors with snow blowers will have you out the next day.

A true Saskatchewanian will not only enjoy this, but will share it.

Facebook Saying of the Week: In life, we must always find out things straight from the horse's mouth and not listen to the jackass spreading the gossip. (I like that one!)

By Linda Wegner Though I'm not a betting person, I do maintain that the cutlery in my kitchen drawer regularly gives birth to offspring. Honestly! If not, please explain that I now am the proud owner of twice as many teaspoons as I had a couple of years ago. It's an honour besmirched with confusion bordering on guilt, I must add.

It's the same with the forks.

And serving spoons. And above all, with the table knives. Patterns somewhat similar to the original lie side by side alongside graceful

You are needed

Friends, I am reminded about Jesus prayer in the Bible recorded in the gospel of John 17.

Jesus does not limit himself to pray for his disciples but also for those who will believe in Him in the ages to follow through the Word shared by His disciples.

Here we are in the middle of this year 2015 and I believe it's time we, as believers in Christ, begin to enter the oneness Jesus prayed for in John 17: 21 - “That they all may be one, as You Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me”.

It's time we held on to one another in good times as well as bad. It's time we realized that we need one another. We do, you know. I need your faith as much as much as you need mine. Together, we can face anything, and win in Jesus.

Are you fed up with religion? Are you tired of rituals?

Cheer up! I have good news for you. Jesus did not come to make us legalistic but to serve God with joy. You can serve God 24/7 with joy only when you are filled with God's spirit everyday. Read John 7: 38.

Friends, the God I serve is not a task Master but a Good Master.

If we claim to be believers in Jesus, than we will be convinced without a shadow of a doubt, that we have the Best news to share to this world. I presume we all know John 3:16 from the time we were children.

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life”. Verse 17 is equally important - “For God did not sent His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved”.

We have a world to win! We are the end-time generation. We need all the help we can get.

Rise up Friend! Will you join hands with me to see the exceedingly great army that God is raising up in our generation? Hallelujah!

ers is problematic; matching what we profess to believe with how we actually live is of eternal importance. More simply put, it's calling practicing what we preach.

"But anybody who is living by the truth will come to the light to make it plain that all he has done has been done through God." "By this shall all [men] know that you are My disciples, if you love one another [if you keep on showing love among yourselves]."

Dear Lord: let Your love so stamp my life with authenticity that those around me will know without a doubt that I belong to You. Amen.

implements sporting an until now, unfamiliar design. I even found an elegantly shaped serving spoon with a gold coloured stripe snaking its way down the handle. I took it to the only person I thought might be the owner but with no success. After checking with family and friends I'm no farther ahead so I publicly declare that I'm returning to my original hypothesis: my cutlery has babies.

Because I can't trace the occasion or event where I may have inadvertently scoffed someone else's silverware I have no option but to go ahead and store it with my honestly acquired implements but I know what's mine and what isn't.

Southeast College gets a "Facelift" for 40th Anniversary Southeast College has announced that it has undergone a brand refresh and is switching to a new logo. The College is celebrating its 40th Anniversary throughout 2015 and the brand refresh is part of many exciting initiatives through the anniversary year and beyond.

"Everyone could use a little makeover when they get to forty," said Dion McGrath, President and CEO of Southeast College. "The themes of the creative work in the logo represent energy and movement, and it's a great representation of the responsiveness and flexibility of Southeast College."

The College's new colours are a fresh blue and green, and will include a flag icon celebrating the 40th Anniversary through the remainder of 2015. The logo was unveiled today at an official announcement at the College's Weyburn Campus.

"There are a lot of new and exciting things happening at the College, and we felt it was time to reflect that in our own brand," said McGrath. "We're very pleased to share this work with the communities that support us."

Among the exciting developments for Southeast College in 2015: • Students enrolling in Fall 2015 Full Time programs could be eligible for up to $1,500 in Entrance Scholarships, significantly reducing the financial hardship of pursuing postsecondary education; • The Weyburn Campus will be opening in its new location, connected with the Comprehensive School, target date late 2015; • A recently completed economic impact study found that the College is a significant contributor to the region's economy, including $36.3 million contributed to the provincial GDP in the year 2012-13.

The View

from the desk of Marga Cugnet, CEO, Sun Country Health Region

Working to improve the health care system Sun Country Health Region is embarking on another year of strategies to improve the health care system on which you rely. The 2015-16 fiscal year will be one of retrenchment; completing or sustaining very necessary practices that we were unable to satisfactorily conclude last year, and working closely with the Ministry of Health and other health regions in the province to ensure the Saskatchewan Health Care Management system is working "as one."

The four projects chosen this year are: Stop Staff Injuries (Zero Injuries by 2020); Stop the Line Safety Alert System; Appropriate Use of Antibiotics, and Hand Hygiene to Stop Infections.

The first one is very ambitious but challenging to implement. In SCHR, we want a workplace culture that is fully committed to preventing and reducing workplace injuries.

We do not want our employees injured at work. We want them where we need them to provide services.

The second project is related but refers to stopping any action or behavior that might have the potential to cause an injury to either a patient or employee. To reach that goal, we need a workplace where patients and staff feel comfort-

able speaking up when they see something that is hazardous.

The third project refers to the use of antibiotics. The SCHR team, including doctors, staff and patients, want to ensure that antibiotics are used appropriately, that health care personnel and patients understand when antibiotics should be prescribed and why, thus reducing antimicrobial resistance.

The fourth project, hand hygiene to stop infections, is being replicated across the Region. The correct hand-washing process and environmental cleaning methods need to be sustained. A plan was developed to include sufficient trainers, a standard process for trainers, improved reporting methods, and better tools for auditing and consistent visual management. During the course of our busy work days, the tendency is to not meet expectations 100 per cent of the time. This year, we will do better.

All four projects are intended to ensure we provide top quality care for the patients/residents/clients we serve in our facilities and programs.

We also have a responsibility to work with the provincial health system to provide better care in all facilities, including urban emergency departments where people are waiting long hours for care and admission. We do our part to improved patient flow by bringing SCHR residents back to recuperate in their home communities after receiving health care in Regina or Saskatoon.

The sooner we accept our residents home with home care, or to one of our facilities, the sooner more of those beds in the larger centres will be available for new patients.

Those strategies provide us with direction and plans for the new fiscal year. We will devote time and resources to achieve our goals.

Learning the moves Changes in place for 2015 big game draw

Sara Franklin (left) and Ashlynn Colbow supported Brinlee Klapak at the Cheer Camp held May18 at the Cugnet Centre. Over 100 participants were taught new techniques and moves during the afternoon camp, which was hosted by the Weyburn Association of Cheer Coaches.

Changes to Saskatchewan's big game draw application process for 2015 mean that hunters will need to track down HAL before they have the opportunity to track down any animals.

HAL is the Ministry of Environment's online hunting, angling and trapping licence system - and this year it is the gateway for big game draw applications, which need to be completed and submitted before the draw closes at midnight on June 2.

"The process is modernized and streamlined to make it easier for hunters and anglers. Everything you need is in one place," said Travis Williams of the ministry's Fish and Wildlife Branch, noting that HAL allows for the purchase of licences at any time - 24 hours a day, seven days a week - using a personal account. "In addition to it being a one-stop shop, security on the HAL system has recently been upgraded to better secure personal information. Users are now required to have a password to further protect their account."

Creating a HAL account is a quick and easy one-time only requirement and most hunters already have one. If you've previously purchased a Saskatchewan hunting, angling or trapping licence, or if you applied for the big game draw last year, then you're already registered. Those who are registered have been assigned a HAL identification number, which can be used for all future licence purchasing. Please ensure that your personal information is current and up to date.

For Saskatchewan residents, this includes confirming that your name and date of birth is exactly as it appears on your Saskatchewan Health Services Card.

The big game draw is a method used to fairly distribute the limited number of hunting licences to Saskatchewan residents for big game animals such as mule deer, elk and moose. The draw uses a system of priority pools to ensure that all applicants are treated equally with a higher priority being given to those who have not been drawn for a number of years.

The big game draw's availability on HAL this year means users will be able to apply for the draw through their online HAL account instead of the Ministry of Environment website. Users will also be able to update and review submitted applications, check pool status history and purchase their awarded licences from their online account.

"The big game draw is really popular, so I would encourage hunters to apply early," said Williams, who has one more tip for those interested in entering in the draw: "Make sure to read the big game draw supplement. It has important

information to help hunters in applying for the big game draw regarding season dates, quotas for each species and instructions on how to check your draw results."

The big game draw is held in June and results will be available by mid-July.
