Getting down and dirty with a steer

Review Photo 10677 — Greg Nikkel

Brady Resch gets down in the dirt as he attempts to wrestle a steer down in the senior steer wrestling event at the Weyburn High School Rodeo on Saturday. Resch took a long time to wrestle the steer down onto its side, at one point getting entangled with the steer’s feet before he was finally able to wrestle it down. There were two full days of rodeo action with both junior and senior high students taking part in the rodeo events at the exhibition grounds.

First-hand account of McTaggart native Candace Funk:

Escaping the flames of Fort McMurray

By Greg Nikkel Less than half an hour after Candace Funk escaped from the home where she lived in a basement suite in Fort McMurray, carrying only a two-day change of clothes and her three cats, her home was gone.

“It was so sudden, nobody was really prepared,” she said in an interview. Born and raised in McTaggart, Funk has back staying with her parents, Ed and Dorothy Funk, after her brother Aron drove up from Weyburn to pick her up from a campsite at Anzac, just south of Fort McMurray, a short time before that town and area had to be evacuated.

Candace was one of the roughly 88,000 residents of Fort McMurray who had to evacuate the Northern Alberta city, and she lost everything when the home she was living in was destroyed by fire. All that remains of her house in Beacon Hill is the foundation and chimney, which her landlord sent her a photo of. Her basement suite was located just below where the chimney stood.

Like many others she knows and works with, she had no renter’s insurance, and while told by her foreman at Ledcor she has a job to come back to (tentatively by June 1), she has nowhere to live.

“I’m in limbo, and it’s not very fun,” said Candace.

Her escape from the wildfires which devastated the city began with literally no warning. The fires began on Sunday, but as she explained, the smoke was some distance away and she and her friends paid no attention to it, as this was a common sight in Northern Alberta.

Even on the fateful day the fires hit Fort McMurray, the day was perfect with a clear blue sky when Candace checked the weather outside at noon. Two hours later, she

stepped outside and the blue sky was obscured by a thick cloud of smoke overhead.

“I’m a block from the tree line, and the trees there were on fire. A police car drove by and he yelled at me to get out, now. That’s when they began the evacuation,” said Candace, who ran back into her house and threw two days change of clothing into an overnight bag.

I do have a job to go back to, but I don’t have a home to go back to.

– Candace Funk She could only find two of her pet carriers for her three cats, so she put two of them in, which left her arms covered in scratches, and put a harness on the third and ran out to her truck. As everyone was evacuating from the Beacon Hill neighbourhood, it took 10 minutes to travel the one block to exit and head to the highway.

Listening to the radio as she drove, evacuees were told to go north to Mac Island, which is a huge recreation facility, but the traffic was so thick it took her an hour just to reach the downtown area. She then heard new orders

During the month of May…

on the radio to not head to Mac Island, but to head south to Anzac, so she turned around, and discovered her truck was running low on fuel, with gas stations now all closed.

Her fuel indicator said she only had fuel for 32 kilometres until empty, so Candace headed to a tourist park near the downtown and parked there, soon joined by others in a similar situation. A stranger offered her a ride as she was heading to the campsite of a mutual friend at Gregoire Lake Provincial Park near Anzac, and soon they were heading out of Fort McMurray.

“I had never met the lady before, but we had a mutual friend who had a campsite,” she said. “We ended up with 12 people in three tents at the campsite.”

Candace noted the famous dash-cam footage of raining embers on the road with walls of flame on either side occurred only about 10 minutes after she had left Beacon Hill.

Her brother Aron had set out from Weyburn, meantime, and by noon the next day he found her at the campsite, and brought her home.

“About three hours after we left, they had to evacuate that campsite. We only got out with a couple hours to spare,” said Candace.

Sighing, Candace noted she had spoken to her foreman at Ledcor. “I do have a job to go back to, but I don’t have a home to go back to.”

She could stay at the work camp at Shell’s plant, but then she has no transportation to get to her job. To compound her problem, Candace has no idea if her 2015 Ford is still safe where she left it, or if it had been towed or stolen.

E Water conservation is the new reality

R

esidents of the City of Weyburn will be subject to water conservation at the end of May, and by the sounds of it, this will be the reality for city residents for a long time to come.

The measures were necessary, of course, because the southeast region has been dry for a long time, coming through a winter with very little snow, and a fairly dry spring time.

It was ironic that the day after the May 9th council meeting where water conservation was introduced that the area received rainfall, which was very much needed and wanted by everyone, in particular the many area producers who have been making a lot of progress with spring seeding operations, some of whom are already done before the May long weekend, the traditional starting point for many gardeners in the area.

The Nickle Lake reservoir is down some 72 centimetres from full capacity, heading into a new growing season of spring and summer, and while the rainfall received was welcome, there hasn’t been any more since.

Thus, the prudent thing to do for Weyburn, and for many communities throughout the region, is to institute water conservation measures, because for any longtime resident of the Prairies, water is a valuable commodity, and for some producers, will mean the difference between having a crop and having nothing at all come harvest time.

With the city’s conservation measures, residents will be allowed to water their lawns three days of the week, and even in city parks the water usage by sprinklers will be reduced from 60 minutes down to 45 minutes.

As the City states in the information sent out to residents, conservation doesn’t mean no water can be used, just that some prudence and wisdom is needed. Reducing water loss from things like leakages and unattended sprinklers can cut down water use by quite a bit.

Other measures are recommended, such as raising the lawn mower up to three inches so the grass doesn’t have to be cut nearly as often, and the longer grass can hold the moisture better than a lawn with short grass.

Even something as simple as fixing dripping faucets can help a lot. If a faucet is dripping at the rate of one drop per second, you can waste as much as 10,000 litres in a year.

Even in lawn watering, a sprinkler can pump out 2,200 litres in just a few hours. If we all take care of this precious resource, then it’ll last a lot longer. — Greg Nikkel

My Nikkel’s Worth

By Greg Nikkel Email: editor@weyburnreview.com

Wow, but Weyburn can be a busy place on a weekend — right?

Now, this has happened several times, and with the pattern I see emerging, I’m thinking that I’ve missed a meeting or two of the Secret Society of Weyburn (I should be getting the minutes though …) but it just seems to me this happens way too often to be merely coincidence.

It is my belief in any event that there are no coincidences … but I digress.

If I could reproduce for you the list of what went on over the weekend, it would fill quite a bit of this column space (which some of you may be inwardly wishing for …) but it shows a very important thing that I want to point out to anyone and everyone who thinks Weyburn is “boring” and “nothing ever happens here”.

Those of you with teenaged people in your life or your household are nodding, I can see, because they have been known to utter these very sentiments often.

Starting the weekend off was the Chamber of Commerce’s WEYBEX Awards gala at McKenna Hall, which was a very nice, very posh event, complete with a live video feed on a large screen.

On Saturday, the morning began bright and early with an 8 a.m. opening of the brand new Open Air Market downtown at the corner of Second Street and Souris Avenue, followed

shortly after by the City staff and council kicking off cleanup efforts with a pancake breakfast and cleanup around the downtown.

Throughout the day, there was the Weyburn High School Rodeo at the exhibition grounds, and the invitational track meet at the Comp track field, both with many competitors from around the province here in the city.

In the case of the rodeo, the action went on into the evening, and then again all day on Sunday, providing lots of rodeo action for anyone who wanted to watch.

During the day, there were other ongoing activities, like a highway cleanup by members of the Weyburn Wildlife Federation, and at St. Michael School, there was a huge number of kids and parents there for the Ford Drive 4UR School fundraiser, with fire trucks and a Youth Challenge, a dunk tank, a canteen — just a lot of fun and a lot of water being squirted and splashed around.

There was also a 3D Doodle Art thingie at the library, and then in the evening there was a fundraiser live auction and steak supper for the Therapeutic Animal Park, which raised a total of $11,000. This money will be used to make several improvements to the park facilities.

This doesn’t even cover everything that went on over the weekend — so again, I say, Weyburn is really not a boring place.

City Council officially voted to bring in lower speed limits for school zones in Weyburn, during a recent bylaw discussion by councillors.

The original discussion had included two different changes to our speed limits, making the general speed limit higher to 50 km/hr, and the school zone limits lower to 30 km/hr.

I am very glad that City Council decided against raising the speed limit to 50 km/hr. Especially since I think the current speed limit of 40 km/hr is very appropriate for the community of Weyburn.

As for lowering the school zones, I truly hope that since the new lower speed limits have become official, there will be increased policing around the school zones.

This policing will be especially important on

King Street, where some drivers who are heading out of the city towards Highway 35 are already speeding past the previous 40 km/hr speed limit.

Drivers have to remember that for the 20162017 school year, the Comprehensive School located near King Street will be a Grade 7 to 12 school. In addition, it will also be the new home for the Southeast College. Many great reasons for a reduced speed around this busy area.

There will be a lot of adjustment for the new speed limits for drivers in Weyburn. I hope that public education is done frequently to make sure that drivers are aware of the changes.

It is also important to make penalties realistic when drivers do break the laws. Let’s not have an accident happen because of ‘not knowing the law’.

Young children who need to go to the hospital for major health care, or need to be taken care of by the police for a traumatic event or circumstance, will get to have a fuzzy friend to help comfort them.

The YF Wives Club in Weyburn has developed a program to supply individually-named teddy bears to be given to a child in an emergency or traumatic circumstance through either Victim Services, the Weyburn Police Service, or at the Weyburn General Hospital.

Club member Marla McCormick got the idea for the bears after a grandchild had to have medical treatment in Regina, and was given a bear by Teddy Bears Anonymous.

“I brought this idea to the group to give to kids in a crisis situation,” said McCormick, noting she and fellow member Verla Baillie started working on the project by looking for possible suppliers of the bears, finding one in Ontario who could supply them at a reasonable cost.

The bears are intended for children up to the age of 10, plus special needs

children, who have to have a hospital stay for treatment, or who are dealt with

by Victim Services and the police, such as from being involved in a domestic situation, accident or fire, or other traumatic event.

“We hope this will be an ongoing project for us. We want this to be in our community for years to come.

We wanted something the YF Wives could be known for,” said Baillie.

The club held a work bee where they brought in an initial order of 100 bears, with each bear receiving a name, and each one bagged in a ziplock bag to keep them clean.

Each bear has a ribbon attached identifying the YF Wives as the group who provided the bear.

The names are not gender specific, so the bears can be received equally by boys or girls.

Examples of names include Sunshine, Cinnamon, Sprinkles, Cuddles, Scout and Pepper.

“We’re excited about having a new program.

It’ll be interesting to get feedback on how children receive the bears,” said McCormick.

The Sealy family says …

Hats Off to …

everyone who helped make our auction on May 14 possible. We can’t thank you enough for your generous support of the Therapeutic Animal Park.

The first sign of the blaze to come

Photo 10627 — Candace Funk

This view of fire in the trees about one block from her house was the first sign Candace Funk had of the advancing wildfires that would eventually destroy the home she was living in and force the evacuation of all 88,000 residents of Fort McMurray, the afternoon of May 3. She took this photo with her cell phone after stepping outside and finding smoke filling the skies, and was told by a passing police officer to immediately vacate her home.

Escaping the fires of Fort McMurray Continued from front On Monday, new wildfires had sprung up threatening the oilsand plants north of Fort McMurray, which will also affect the plans of the provincial government to start allowing city residents to come back to the city.

Premier Rachel Notley said they will know by Friday what the timing will be to allow residents to return to Fort McMurray.

Thinking back on the whole experience now, Candace said it still hasn’t really sunk in what happened.

Even in the middle of the situation, it felt very surreal

Remains of her home in Fort McMurray

A chimney and foundation are all that remain of this home in the Beacon Hill neighbourhood in Fort McMurray, where former local resident Candace Funk had her basement suite until wildfires hit and levelled the entire neighbourhood. Her suite was located just below the chimney. Candace was only able to grab a couple changes of clothing and her three cats before leaving on May 3, as the residents had little to no warning of the advancing fires. This photo was taken by her landlord, the owner of the home. As Candace had no renter’s insurance, she lost everything in the fire.

Armed robbery in Pangman Weyburn RCMP are asking the public to be on the lookout for a grey van in relation to an armed robbery in Pangman on Friday morning.

The RCMP were called to a financial institution in Pangman around noon today after they received a report of an armed robbery. One suspect entered the financial institution and demanded cash. They fled in a grey van in an unknown direction with an undisclosed amount of cash. No one inside at the time of the incident was physically injured. The police are declining to identify the weapon involved.

The suspect is described as a heavy-set adult male about 5’5” tall. He was dressed

in a grey hoodie at the time of the incident.

A grey van seen in the area at the time is believed to be involved in this incident.

Weyburn RCMP continue to investigate. If anyone has information regarding this incident, contact the Weyburn RCMP. Meantime, the Coronach/Bengough RCMP are currently investigating a break, enter and theft that occurred at Southern Prairie Railway in Ogema.

Sometime between 4 p.m. on April 21 and 1 p.m. on April 23, culprit(s) entered the property, broke into the main building and stole approximately 1,800 litres of diesel fuel from a storage tank. The fuel is worth approximately $1,500.

to her to see all of the flames and the thick smoke, and the thousands upon thousands of residents on Highway 63 heading out of the city.

“It’s going to be a long time before I can enjoy a bonfire,” she said.

Besides the frustration of having nowhere to live and not knowing if her truck is still available for her to use, there is frustration around the help that has been extended to Fort Mac evacuees.

She was contacted by the Canadian Red Cross who will be sending her some money, but the preloaded

debit cards that are being issued to evacuees are not available to her because she’s here in Saskatchewan and not at the evacuation centres in Alberta where they’re being handed out.

“The Red Cross has said they would send me $600, which is nice. It’s a start,” she said.

Candace has lived and worked in Fort McMurray since 2011, and currently her position with Ledcor involved expediting parts and quality control. She has worked with them since May of 2013, previously working at Syncrude.

Man arrested for threats City police received a call on Sunday evening regarding an intoxicated male in a local restaurant. Upon attending the members found a highly-intoxicated 28-yearold male. While the male willingly left the business he became much more agitated outside. As a result the male was taken into custody and is now facing charges of uttering threats and resisting arrest, and breaching an earlier release, and was remanded in custody.

• Weyburn police are investigating the theft of two cell phones from a local bar on May 12. The suspect is described as 5’10” tall, 190 pounds, age about mid 40’s, grey/ brown hair wearing jeans and a Monster Energy shirt.

Anyone knowing this individual or who may have information that would assist in his identification is asked to contact the Weyburn Police Service, or to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

• Police received a call regarding a possible domestic dispute where threats were being uttered on May 11. After investigation the police determined that the matter could best be handled by assisting in mediating the matter involving a 40-yearold female and a 44-year-old male.

• Police are investigating a report of mischief done to the tail gate of a vehicle parked in the area of Clarke Avenue and 16th Street on May 12. The tailgate was dented and the Ford emblem removed from the tailgate.

Anyone knowing this individual or who may have information that would assist in his identification is asked to contact the Weyburn police, or to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

• City police conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle being driven by a 28-year-old female late on May 12. As a result of the stop the driver was arrested and has been charged with impaired driving and driving over .08, and will be making a court appearance. The vehicle was also impounded.

• Members of the city police conducted a traffic stop on Friday resulting from the driving action of a vehicle. As a result of the stop, the 16-year-old driver was issued a 60-day licence suspension for being over the allowable blood alcohol limit for a new driver (which incidentally is zero) and the vehicle was impounded for three days. A 17-year-old passenger was also charged with possessing open alcohol as a minor.

Business excellence awards presented by Chamber of Commerce

Pharmasave top winner at WEYBEX

By Greg Nikkel Weyburn Pharmasave emerged with top honours at the Weyburn Chamber of Commerce’s annual WEYBEX Awards gala on Friday evening, as they were named Weyburn’s Business of the Year as well as the winner of the Golden Service Award.

“We’re shocked,” said managing partner Krista Missal after receiving the top overall award along with fellow managing partner Laura Resler. “We’re so proud of our team. It’s a really good feeling to be recognized.

We’re just so honoured, it’s amazing to get this award.”

In receiving the Golden Service Award earlier, Missal said, “This award doesn’t just belong to us, but to our staff. It’s a pleasure coming to work every day. Also we need to thank our customers. It’s a pleasure to be in service to such a great community.”

The Golden Service Award recognizes a business that consistently demonstrates outstanding customer service and/or hospitality.

The overall award of Business of the Year was chosen from winners of each category other than the Hall of Fame inductees, and goes to the business that exemplifies entrepreneurial spirit and has demonstrated outstanding achievement and commitment to excellence and quality in their field.

The company was judged according to their growth, use of capital investment, exports, job creation, stability and community involvement.

The Business Leader of the Year was Don Bell of Souris Valley Industries, who with sons Dustin, Mike and Luk took over that company in 2005 and has achieved growth both in sales and in size.

The growth has included landing a large contract to supply precast concrete to the new Mosaic Stadium in Regina, with 500 truckloads making their way there from the Weyburn plant.

“I’ve lived in Weyburn all my adult life,” said Bell, noting that since he and his family purchased Souris Valley Industries 10 years ago, he’s had his sons come on

The staff and management of Pharmasave gather on-stage with their awards after being named the winner of the Golden Service Award and the overall award as Business of the Year for Weyburn at the Weyburn Chamber of Commerce’s biannual WEYBEX Awards gala held Friday evening at McKenna Hall. From left they are Jennie Moule, Judy Dunn, managing partner Laura Resler, Trisha Graefer, Alison Medders, Jasmine Kravanya, Andrea Paquette, Stephanie Miller, Wendy McAuley and managing partner Krista Missal. board to work with him in building up and running the precast concrete plant.

The plant expanded from 23,000 square feet to 43,000 square feet.

“It’s been very educational. Weyburn has been an awesome place to do business in. We are extremely proud to label our products as coming from Weyburn, and they’re shipped throughout the province now,” said Bell.

The award for new or expanded business went to Blue Earth Environmental, owned

by Rose MacInnes.

The business opened in 2013 with residential blue bin

recycling.

It now includes commercial services, a “got junk” collection service and two second-hand retail locations in downtown Weyburn.

McInnes said the support of the community has been strong, and she values the relationships she has with such agencies as the Family Place, through which she is able to help those who are in need.

The Community Involvement Award went to Pet Valu, owned by Chad and Melanie Ror. “We’re so honoured to be named to this award. This means more to us than any-

thing. We believe a huge part of the business is being involved with the community of Weyburn,” said Melanie.

“We couldn’t do this without our community. We appreciate that so much, and the staff plays a really huge role in what we do.”

She related how with the recent fires of Fort McMurray, she got a call from a staff member asking what the store was going to do.

“It may seem like a simple gesture, but to me it was a huge affirmation that they are as much into helping the community as we are,” said Melanie.

There were six inductees to the Business Hall of Fame, one of the largest groups ever inducted at these awards, including Cogent CPA, Ron’s the Work Wear Store, Fletcher Funeral Chapels, Prairie Sky Co-operative Association, the

Ken and Marlene Hillstead Group of Companies and the Weyburn Red Wings hockey club.

The award is presented in recognition of pioneer and cornerstone businesses and business leaders who have demonstrated excellence over an extended period of time and whose business has contributed to the economic well-being of Weyburn and immediate area.

Making a leap of faith to wrestle a steer

Review Photo 10678 — Greg Nikkel

Brady Resch jumps onto the back of a running steer from his running horse in the senior steer wrestling event at the Weyburn High School Rodeo on Saturday. He was eventually able to wrestle this large steer down, but it took quite an effort as at one point he got caught up in the steer’s feet before he was finally able to wrestle it down. This was one of 10 events for the senior high school rodeo participants, with a slate of events also for junior high rodeo riders for the two-day annual rodeo, drawing in rodeo participants from throughout Saskatchewan.

Pouliot, Pens tie up Eastern Conference finals The Pittsburgh Penguins captured a 3-2 overtime win on Monday night, tying up their best-of-seven series with the Tampa Bay Lightning in game two of the Eastern Conference Final.

Derrick Pouliot, who grew up playing hockey in the Weyburn area and now is a defenseman for Pittsburgh, has not gotten any ice time during the Eastern Conference Final yet. He had received his first playoff experience with the Penguins in the previous round.

Pouliot played in two games, during the Pittsburgh playoff series against Washington. The opportunity to get on the ice came up when Penguins defenseman Olli Maatta had been injured in the first round of the playoffs.

During his playoff games, Pouliot had 22 shifts on May 2, and was +2 as a defenseman. Then Pouliot had 27 shifts on May 4, and was -1 as a defenseman.

The Penguins captain ended his eight-game goal

Regina Riot chosen to host national tourney The Regina Riot was recently chosen as the host of the inaugural Senior Women’s National Championship, which will be held July 28 to 31.

The organization of the Senior Women’s National Championship will be led by the Regina Riot football club in collaboration with Football Saskatchewan and Football Canada.

Two Weyburn minor football alumni athletes currently play for the Regina Riot, Bailee Koszman and Chantal Vogel.

The Regina Riot recently secured a 47-0 win over the Winnipeg Wolfpack during the Riot’s home opener, the Ovarian Cancer Canada Walk of Hope teal game.

There will be a lot of opportunities for the Regina Riot to truly shine during the Senior Women’s National Championship.

The event hosts provincial tackle football

teams from across Canada and builds off the 2012 Women’s Challenge Cup held in Montreal. The Challenge Cup hosted provincial teams from Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Quebec and Atlantic Canada in a week-long celebration of women’s football which included integrated practices, mini-games as well as development opportunities for mentor coaches.

While provinces battle for the title of national champion, the 2016 women’s nationals will also serve as the start of the identification process for Canada’s Women’s National Team, scheduled to compete at the 2017 International Federation of American Football (IFAF) Women’s World Championship (WWC).

Canada won a pair of silver medals at the inaugural 2010 WWC in Sweden and 2013 WWC in Finland.

drought, by scoring 40 seconds into the overtime for the win. Bryan Rust carried the puck into the Tampa Bay zone before dropping a pass to Sidney Crosby. While going down on one knee, Crosby shot the puck past goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy’s blocker for his first Stanley Cup playoff goal of this season. Pittsburgh rookie goalie Matt Murray made 19 saves. Vasilevskiy, a rookie who started in place of injured Ben Bishop, had 38.

The Penguins controlled the first period but let a twogoal lead slip away late. Pittsburgh forward Matt Cullen opened the scoring at 4:32 with his fourth goal of the playoffs. He collected a rebound off of Eric Fehr’s shot and put the puck over Tampa Bay forward Ondrej Palat and past Vasilevskiy’s blocker.

Phil Kessel scored to make it 2-0 at 9:37 after Carl Hagelin shot the puck into the crease, where Nick Bonino was battling Tampa Bay forward Cedric Paquette. Bonino gained possession and spun off Paquette before passing off Lightning defenseman Andrej Sustr’s skate to Kessel, who shot inside the left post.

Kessel leads the Penguins with 14 playoff points, two more than Crosby. His six goals are tied with forward Patric Hornqvist for the Pittsburgh lead.

In his first game back from a fractured left fibula, defenseman Anton Stralman scored with 3:23 remaining in the first to cut the Penguins lead in half. After Crosby and Pittsburgh forward Conor Sheary collided between the faceoff circles in the Tampa Bay zone, forward Jonathan Marchessault passed through Hornqvist, Crosby and

Sheary to Stralman, who shot over Murray’s glove.

Stralman had not played since March 25, when he was injured against the New York Islanders. He scored four goals in three games against the Penguins in the regular season. Jonathan Drouin tied it 2-2 with 49.2 seconds remaining in the first after a pass from J.T. Brown sent him streaking into the Pittsburgh zone. Drouin shot under Murray’s blocker for his third goal of the playoffs.

Vasilevskiy robbed Crosby to preserve the tie midway through the second period. Evgeni Malkin tipped a pass to Crosby to the right of the slot, where he backhanded a shot toward a seemingly open net. Vasilevskiy twisted back to make a glove save just before the puck crossed the goal line with 9:28 remaining in the second.

Murray made an impressive save of his own with less than 10 seconds remaining in the second. After forward Alex Killorn tipped the puck into the Pittsburgh zone, he went on a partial breakaway before Murray made a blocker save. Pittsburgh tweaked its lines in the third period; Chris Kunitz replaced Sheary at left wing on Crosby’s line, and Hagelin and Kessel took turns on Malkin’s line.

Killorn nearly gave the Lightning a 3-2 lead midway through the third, but his shot on a two-on-one hit off the crossbar at 9:38. Pittsburgh outshot Tampa Bay 19-6 in the third period and overtime.

Game three of the best-of-seven series will be tonight, May 18. In the Western Conference Finals, the St. Louis Blues and San Jose Sharks played their second game of their best-of-seven series on Tuesday night.

New career chance for Big John Daly SPORTS COLUMN BY BRUCE PENTON

CARE TO COMMENT? EMAIL BRUCEPENTON2003@YAHOO.CA

Big John Daly has a new golf home, which offers vast opportunities. The golf world is hoping a new John Daly shows up to take advantage.

One of the most popular figures on the professional golf circuit for the past 25 years, Daly — famous for his prodigious drives and his living-on-the-edge lifestyle — turned 50 in early May. He became eligible for PGA Tour Champions, the no-cut circuit that still offers pretty good money as older fans flock to see their heroes of yesterday. Daly finished in a tie for 17th in his first tournament, shooting two under par for three rounds.

And yes, those old guys can still play. The over-50 guys play on courses that aren’t quite as challenging as they faced in their younger days, but still require shotmaking skills the vast majority of amateurs can only dream of having.

So it’s the perfect scenario for Daly, who can still hit it a mile and, if he’s on, can score

with the best of them. Now, if he can only tone down his off-course antics and concentrate on golf, he could have a lucrative few years on the senior circuit. Daly’s off-course tales are legion.

His four divorces. His gambling (he claims to have lost $90 million in his lifetime), his run-ins with the police, primarily due to assault- or drunk-related activities.

Many golf fans can relate to the ‘everyman’ persona that Daly projects. He’s not a buttoned-down, corporate type who always does and says the right things to please the masses. He goes his own way and well, sometimes, it’s not always politically correct.

Daly rose to prominence in 1991 when he got into the PGA at Crooked Stick on a fluke. He was the tourney’s ninth alternate, but nine people ahead of him dropped out for various reasons.

The unknown Daly went on to win — one of golf’s biggest upsets ever — and then he validated that triumph with another major at the British Open at St. Andrew’s in 1995.

Since then there have been more personal woes than golf titles, more police mug shots than championship trophy posing. Word around the world of golf, however, is that the 50-yearold Daly has slowed down.

Perhaps some late-age maturity has set in. He’s ready to take on the old guys and grab

some of that cash.

Daly might just dominate on the PGA Tour Champions because the courses are short, which is right up a longhitter’s alley. Controlling the ball won’t be the biggest challenge, though. Controlling John Daly will be the most important thing.

Josh Peter of USA Today, on fun-loving John Daly set to join the Champions Tour after turning 50: “He will be the only tour member with two major championships, three children, four ex-wives and, seemingly, nine lives.”

Norman Chad of the Washington Post, on a difference between himself and Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban: “He wrote an acclaimed e-book, ‘How to Win at the Sport of Business.’ I wrote an unacclaimed book, ‘Hold On, Honey, I’ll Take You to the Hospital at Halftime.’”

Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times, calling this the ‘Tweet of the Week’: “From Pacers media-relations director David Benner: “Got a call from TMZ today regarding someone named Drake and antics during Game 5. I am 60. Who is Drake? If Simon & Garfunkel act up, call.”

Perry again: “Corpulent Red Sox third baseman Pablo Sandoval underwent seasonending surgery to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder. But on the bright side, at least it wasn’t his eating arm.”

Comedy writer Alex

Kaseberg: “Golfer Zac Blair was disqualified for using a putter he had bent whacking on his head in anger. He violated rule 4-3b, otherwise known as ‘The Three Stooges’ rule.”

Brad Dickson of the Omaha World-Herald: “A 100-year-old lifelong Cubs fan threw out the first pitch.

That’s pretty bad when your 100-year-old lifelong fan wasn’t born the last time you were a favourite to reach the World Series.”

From ESPN Stats and Info: “Nyquist ran the final 1/4 mile at the Kentucky Derby in 25.7 seconds. Bartolo Colon took nearly 31 seconds to round four bases.”

Kaseberg: “Beloved rotund and aged Mets pitcher Bartolo Colon hit his first career home run. It was the first home run trot that featured a siesta.”

TBS’s Conan O’Brien, on the best item in Pats QB Tom Brady’s new $200 cookbook: ”A soufflé that falls then reinflates at halftime.”

RJ Currie of sportsdeke. com: “Quarterback flop JaMarcus Russell offered to play in the NFL for free. So far all 32 teams have decided to do what he couldn’t — pass.”

Janice Hough of leftcoastsportsbabe.com: “Tim Lincecum … has two important qualities the San Francisco Giants are now looking for in a fourth or fifth starter – alive and breathing.”

Bruce Penton has been writing about sports for more than 40 years and has been circulating a weekly sports column to Prairie community newspapers since 2008. After 27 years in the community newspaper industry in Saskatchewan and Manitoba, Penton is now assistant managing editor of the Medicine Hat News.

The Southeast Performance Pump Twins captured three wins in four games over the weekend.

In the sixth inning, the Twins had two runs and the Cubs hit three runs to tie up the game. With a run in the seventh inning, the Twins captured the win.

Josh Brown started on the mound for the Twins.

He pitched five innings and had four runs scored off three hits, and Nate Smart pitched relief.

In their next game, played against the Saskatoon Giants, it was the Giants who had an early lead with two runs in the first inning and one run in the fourth inning.

The Twins claimed five runs in the fifth inning to gain control of the game.

The Giants put up one more run in the seventh inning, but it was not enough to force more innings.

Ryan Gaab started on the mound for the Twins, pitching five innings and having three runs scored off four hits. Walker Happ

pitched relief.

Then on Sunday, the Twins played a doubleheader against the Saskatoon D-Backs.

In the first game, the Twins lost 11-1 against the D-Backs. Saskatoon opened the game with five runs in the first inning, then added one run in each the fourth and fifth innings, and four more runs in the sixth inning.

The Twins were only able to hit in one run in the sixth inning. Brett MacMurchy started on the mound for the Twins, he pitched five innings and had seven runs scored off eight hits. Hunter Perkins was the relief pitcher.

In their second game against the D-Backs, the Twins won 2-1. Saskatoon had one run in the second inning, while the Twins scored both of their runs in the fifth inning.

Carter Sorenson started on the mound for the Twins, he pitched six innings and had one run scored off six hits. Nate Smart pitched relief.

The next action for the SE Twins will be against the Northwest Pirates on Friday, May 20, with the game held at Cairns Field in Saskatoon. Also, the Twins will play the Saskatoon D-Backs on Saturday, May 21, also in Saskatoon.

Now is the time to spruce up your home!

Turn heads with an upside-down garden

Growing plants upside-down in hanging containers is nothing new, but the idea gains in popularity every summer thanks to its many benefits, both for the gardener and the plants themselves. Many enthusiasts swear by this technique, which produces a hearty harvest with minimal effort and space required.

The two most common species grown upside-down are tomatoes and cucumbers, but other vegetables like eggplants, beans and peppers are also suited to this type of gardening. A variety of herbs and flowers also produce great results in a hanging garden.

The upside of upside-down gardening Hanging gardens are much easier to maintain than traditional ones. Since the plants are at eye level, there’s no need to bend over for watering or picking fruit. And you can say “goodbye” to tilling and weeding, as neither are required. Plus, plants grown using this space-saving technique tend to be more vigorous and have better, stronger roots. Furthermore, their fruits don’t touch the soil, which reduces the risk of rotting and pest attacks.

Tomatoes are a great choice for an upside-down garden.

Try it for yourself Are you ready to grow your own upside-down veggies, flowers or herbs? All you need is a large container, a mix of soil and fertilizer and something to hang it all up with. Drill a hole around five cm in diameter in the bottom of the container. Stick the plant’s stem through the hole, from the inside of the pot, and cover the roots with soil. Hang it up somewhere that receives enough sunlight, and voila! You’re all set for gardening success.

Common pests in our gardens With its top-quality soil, mild seasons and abundance of rain, there’s no question that the West Coast is a garden-friendly region. However, your precious plants aren’t the only ones who benefit from these optimal conditions.

Some bothersome bugs are particularly suited to the western climate and can pose a true threat to your harvest. You should get to know the top three.

Aphids These tiny terrors exist in a variety of sub-species that share a common goal: to snack on your tasty vegetable garden. They feed in colonies and reproduce at an impressive rate, so it’s important to eradicate them before they become an overwhelming threat to your plants. Signs of aphid damage include curled, atrophied leaves and stunted growth among young stems. To get rid of these unwanted guests, your greatest ally is none other than the common ladybug; you can purchase an army of these aphid-eaters at your local garden supply store .

Slugs If you wake up to find irregular holes with smooth edges on your plants’ leaves, there’s a good chance you have a slug problem. These slimy foes attack at night and are most active during wet, humid and overcast weather — a frequent forecast for the West Coast. To get rid of them, skip the potentially damaging salt. Instead, lure slugs into a tempting trap using citrus rinds or beer.

Home Improvement

Overflowing closets, cupboards and drawers?

Tradition holds that the chore of cleaning out your home should be done in the spring; we’re all familiar with the routine of de-junking closets and scrubbing cupboards. But it can seem as though the job is never done if your storage space is poorly organized and your cupboards are always overflowing. If this is finally the year you’re setting your mind to get rid of the mess, here are a few tips to help you.

First of all, try not to let your feelings get in the way. Remember that the goal is to make your closets, cupboards and drawers visually appealing when open and much easier to access. Start by placing everything that needs sorting out in the middle of the floor of a room that doesn’t get much use. Ask yourself the following questions about each item:

One thing’s for sure: decluttering closets, cupboards and drawers will lift a weight off your shoulders. Are you ready for the big spring sorting?

Home Services

Is it in good condition?

Do I have other, identical objects?

Was it stored in the right place?

Is it useful to me?

Does it have sentimental value?

Renos • Repairs & Preventative Maintenance Affordable Quality & Guaranteed Work

If an object is broken and can’t be repaired, throw it out immediately. Put it in the garbage or take it to a recycling centre. An object is no longer useful or you never use it? Give it to someone who needs it more than you. You have two or more identical items? Keep the one you feel is in the best condition. An object was stored in the wrong place?

Simple! Put it in the right place.

Sentimental value Are you brought to tears at the thought of getting rid of a trinket that reminds you of your grandmother? Then ask yourself why you keep it hidden away in a closet. If you can’t bring yourself to get rid of it, give it pride of place in your home instead. On the other hand, if hundreds of youthful love letters are cluttering up half your closet, you could always scan them and store them on a CD so they take up less space.

One out of two Of course, it can be difficult to get rid of items that you think are still useful or ones that bring back good memories. However, you can make it easier on yourself by using the “one out of two” trick. With this approach, you keep one out of any two items you’re hesitating over, whether they’re items of clothing, books, photographs, toys or decorations. That way, you only keep those that really matter to you.

The ABCs of paving

From the driveway to the area around the backyard pool, different types of paving abound. For an overview of the most decorative to the supremely functional, read on to discover what sort of paving is best for your project.

Asphalt. Asphalt, the traditional material for driveways, has proven its worth as far as durability is concerned. It continues to be popular because of its relatively low cost, and if you think it only comes in black, think again.

Concrete. This material has a modern look and is extremely versatile; you can cut it into slabs and customize the surface. Concrete can also bear heavier loads than asphalt, although its porousness means it needs to have a coat of sealer applied from time to time.

Slate. This ultra-trendy stone is waterproof and frost resistant, in addition to having a highly sought-after look. Like concrete, it requires regular maintenance with a sealer.

Limestone. Popular for pool surrounds because of its anti-slip properties, these large-hewn stones are also a frequent choice for decorative steps and paths.

Travertine. There’s no doubt that travertine is durable. After all, Rome’s ancient coliseum was almost entirely built with this stone. It’s an elegant choice that keeps its colour well over the years.

Brick. In addition to being the best environmental choice, brick offers a timeless look and requires little maintenance.

Choosing the right paving materials can add instant character to your yard.

Sandstone. Like limestone, sandstone is slip resistant. It’s very durable and economical and is available in a wide range of styles.

Don’t hesitate to consult a specialist before coming to a decision. After all, your investment could last for decades if you do it right.

Let there be light!

Your patio and yard sparkle in the summer sun, but what about when it’s dark? Well-planned lighting is essential for the enjoyment and appreciation of any outdoor space.

For safety Outdoor lighting is still important, even after everyone has gone to bed. One of the best ways to protect your property against intruders is to have a clear view of your yard at all times. A motion-detector spotlight is a great option and only uses electricity when required. That way, you can sleep with peace of mind without wasting energy.

With some well-planned lighting you can enjoy your yard at night as well as during the day.

The timeless elegance of natural stone Natural stone is always a great choice when choosing a material for use in a landscaping project. Stylish and durable, natural stone helps to create a beautiful feeling of harmony between the vegetation and your home. In fact, it’s a fabulous option to consider for most of your outdoor projects.

For the look Adding extra lights can bring new life to your outdoor decor. Be creative: garlands of lanterns add sparkle to deck railings, and a bundle of little Christmas-type lights in an empty Mason jar or wine bottle create a striking table centerpiece. It’s easy to create a magical atmosphere for your evenings under the stars with a little imagination and some objects you already have on hand.

In the backyard, the trend of building natural stone walls is still in favour. These stones are used to create plant beds and retaining walls that keep the earth in place, but they’re also used to add another dimension to the landscaping. Walls provide privacy or can be used as esthetic structures to define spaces. In addition to ornamental or retaining walls, natural stones are perfect for creating paths with a country or modern look, depending on the style you’re looking for.

Silica, sandstone, limestone and slate are some examples of natural stone that fit perfectly into landscaped yards, whether it’s in the city, suburbs or countryside. Natural stone can brighten the feel of an entire backyard when used for an outdoor fireplace, a decorative feature, steps, patio or waterfall.

Whatever your project, you can count on the expertise of landscapers to help you find the right natural stone products, including the shapes and colours that will enhance the vegetation in your yard. Find inspiration from their project catalogues or browse the Web to discover a unique landscaping plan that tickles your fancy.

For practicality When it comes time to plan the lighting for outdoor areas, think about how you use these places once the sun goes down. This will enable you to choose the best location for the one or two main lights that will illuminate your evening activities.

The key is to ensure good visibility for your activities without spoiling the magic of the evening with too much bright light.

One last tip: Make sure you always buy lighting products specifically designed for outdoor use in order to avoid damage or electrocution.

City building permits on pace with last year

By Greg Nikkel A construction project at the former St. Dominic School site helped the numbers of building permits issued by the City of Weyburn stay on par with last year.

In the April building permit report, the city issued five building permits in April worth a total of $1,323,000.

These include two permits for residential addition or alteration, with a total value of $105,000, two permits for residential detached garages worth $18,000, and one permit for a multi-family development worth $1.2 million.

The latter permit is for work developing a new care facility at the former St. Dominic Savio school on Fourth Street, which will develop 14 dwelling units. The developer is Mel Van Betuw, who bought the former elementary school building.

This brings the year-to-date total to 14 building permits worth a total of $3,187,600.

This compares to a year ago when the city had issued 13 permits worth a total of $3,686,050.

• In the April report from the water filtration plant, all bacteriological samples taken showed negative results.

In quarterly samples of THMs, the results showed the city’s water is 15.3 per cent over the drinking water standard, and up by 11 per cent from last quarter.

There was a similar result for the quarterly samples of halo acetic acid, which was 18 per cent over the drinking water standard and up 11 per cent from last quarter as well.

With the rise in temperature generally, the turbidity of raw water has increased with a lot of organic and inorganic material in the water. The treatment plant was able to adjust chemical treatment levels to produce quality water without any problems.

The level of Nickle Lake is 72 centimetres from full level, which is below the average for the last 14 years.

City council has introduced a bylaw for water conservation, which will be voted on at the Tuesday, May 24 council meeting.

• The Nickle Lake Regional Park board expressed an interest in obtaining the washrooms which were removed from Tom Laing Park, offering to buy them for $2,000 unless the council felt a donation was in order.

Coun. Winston Bailey asked if the washrooms might be donated, but fellow council members shot the idea down.

Coun. Rob Stephanson pointed out there are many other organizations in the city who could use these washrooms, even though none of them expressed any interest like the Nickle Lake board did.

“I wouldn’t support just giving it to them, and from the reports I saw, $2,000 is low, so we are donating to them in a way,” he said.

Coun. Mel Van Betuw agreed, noting he believes the washroom facility is likely worth a lot more than $2,000.

“I would agree. I have a seasonal site at the park, and I think the park is doing a wonderful job. If we were to offer it for donation, it should be something we offer to the public. I think $2,000 is fair, and that will save them money over the years not to have to rent portable washrooms,” said Mayor Debra Button.

• Coun. Stephanson reported to council he was recently in Ottawa for the national meeting of the Canadian Association of Police Governance, representing the Weyburn Police Commission.

One of the highlights was the discussion over the federal government’s intention to legalize marijuana by 2017.

“We need to be at the table, because it’s the local police who are going to be tasked with monitoring this. We were told very clearly, this is happening. There is going to be obvious costs at the local level for training and equipment,” said Coun. Stephanson.

“We’re looking forward to more discussions, because they’re aiming for next spring.”

• Coun. Laura Morrissette reported that the spring book sale held by the Weyburn Public Library raised a total of $4,247, which will be used to buy new program materials for the library.

Mother and daughter clean up in park

Review Photo 10662 — Greg Nikkel

Mayor Debra Button and her daughter Annie sweep up as they help with the cleanup of Memorial Park on Saturday morning, after city staff put on a pancake breakfast for city staff and councillors to kick off cleanup efforts around the city. Council members and staff did cleanup around the downtown area to help encourage city residents to take on the task of cleaning up around their properties and neighbourhoods this spring.

RM to give break to business owners Taxpayers in the Rural Municipality of Weyburn should see a decrease in their tax bills this year, after the RM council ratified their budget for the year at their monthly meeting on Wednesday.

The RM’s mill rate was decreased from 7.1 to 6.8, and in particular, the factor for commercial properties was reduced from 1.25 to 1.15, said Reeve Carmen Sterling, in recognition of the downturn in the economy for oil-related businesses.

“The first thing was, we wanted to recognize what’s been happening out there in the oil sector. A number of our businesses are ag-based or oil-based, so we wanted to bring in a separation from last year,” she said, noting that to lower the mill rate factor for commercial properties is one of the few tools they have to help the business sector. To help offset the lower revenue from taxes, the RM will be transferring $380,000 from reserves.

Capital spending will total $1,047,000, as part of the budget for transportation services, which totals $2,534,850, and there should be a budget surplus of about $8,000. Of this budget, $420,000 will be used towards maintenance gravel to be used throughout the year as it’s needed. The

primary capital project will be the sewage receiving station, for which they needed to change locations. The cost of this project is $722,800, of which $228,800 is a grant through the New Building Canada infrastructure grant program.

The RM will be building two and a half miles of road, with two miles in Division 4 in the northeast corner of the RM, plus a half-mile of road near the SaskPower substation just southwest of Weyburn near Prospect Road.

The RM will spend $50,000 on bridge repairs. One of the issues they want to address is how to minimize damages to railings on bridges caused by large farm equipment, without causing damage to the equipment. For the Airport Road out to North Weyburn, Coun. Ron Fellner has been looking into options to help control the dust on the road, but the company they have been talking to will not be able to address the problem this year.

The budget also includes the normal commitments made by the RM, such as $125,000 each year towards the new acute-care hospital in Weyburn, $2,000 to the Nickle Lake Regional Park, a payment to the City of Weyburn for recreation services of $70,000, and $6,000 to the Weyburn Planning Commission.

In business, evolution is efficiency.

‘Little Mermaid’ play attended by over 1,000 A record-breaking run of Disney’s “The Little Mermaid” has just been completed at the Weyburn Comp with over 1,000 people attending the four performances this past week.

The audience was wowed with the costumes (all made and designed by Kendra Gonczy and her crew), the sets (by the art department and especially Laura Watson), the great music by the pit orchestra and of course all pulled together by the cast, crew and Colleen Weimer. The new playbill was marveled at and the pre-show events went over very well.

Thanks to all the patrons and parents who attended.

It was a great job that will be hard to beat next year.

There are two track meets coming up here at WCS. The regional track meet will be held today, May 18, and on Wednesday, May 25, the district track meet will held.

There is no school on Tuesday, May 24, as the

teachers are at a Learning Fair.

There will be a Grades 7-8 Activity Night on Wednesday, May 25.

The music students are off on their annual spring trip today, May 18, after school. They will first go to Swift Current and do a concert there as well as one in Wymark. Then it is off to Edmonton for concerts, three professional stage shows (including two dinner theaters) and some time at the West Edmonton Mall. The group will return Sunday evening, arriving in Weyburn early Monday morning.

Next year’s grad coordinators have been chosen and they are Tyra Sandiford, Rebecca Mondor and Morgan King.

These three young ladies will help with this year’s grad to be held on Wednesday, June 29.

Plans are being looked at to change grad next year to the second Saturday in June, but it is not finalized as yet.

Alfred Bernard Schmidt May 5, 1932-April 22, 2016 Alfred Bernard Schmidt of West Kelowna, BC, passed away Friday, April 22, 2016 at the age of 83 years, after a long and courageous battle with cancer.

Alfred was born May 5, 1932 in Weyburn, the second of eight children born to Bernard and Wanda Schmidt.

He had a great love of music and played in both the school dance band and the Jaycees Band for 13 years. When he retired to Kelowna, it wasn’t very long before he began repairing lawn mowers and other small motors in his garage for the community of Lakeview Heights.

Grace Isabel Goudy

Gladys Audrie Latham 1916 ~ 2016

1922 ~ 2016 Grace Isabel Goudy, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, May 11, 2016 at the age of 94 years at the Fillmore Care Home, Fillmore. Grace was predeceased by her parents, Hugh and Essie Blackstock; husband, Hugh George Goudy; sisters, Mable (Frank) Wilton and Irene Blackstock and brothers, Clarence (Laura) Blackstock, Wesley Blackstock, Melvin (Della) Blackstock and Gerald Blackstock. Grace was born on January 14, 1922 at Tregarva, SK. Mom attended school in the Inchkeith, SK area then worked for a few years in the Tregarva area, then in Regina. Later she was back to the Inchkeith area where she met her future husband, Hugh Goudy. War broke out, he signed up and was overseas for a time. Upon his return, Mom and Dad were married May 1, 1945. They started farming in the Handsworth, SK area. Besides working alongside Dad farming, Mom was very involved with the Homemakers Club in the district.

She was one of the few ladies back in the day who actually drove a vehicle. In the fall of 1971, they retired off the farm moving into Stoughton. Mom helped Dad with his long-time interest in restoring horse-drawn vehicles. Mom having the talent to sew, was able to do most of the upholstery. Some of her interests were such sports as curling and bowling. Quilting combined with conversation was another passion she pursued along with her many friends. She did a lot of sewing for people, anything from hemming a pair of pants to making a very elaborate wedding gown along with dresses for the whole bridal party. Grace will be lovingly remembered by her daughter, Sharon (Ernie) Wittig of Stoughton; son, Spencer (Edna) Goudy of Stoughton; daughter, Sandra Goudy of Stoughton, and daughter, Heather (David) Carling of Calgary, AB; nine grandchildren, 14 great grandchildren and two great great grandchildren; sisterin-law, Myrtle Blackstock of Whitewood, as well as numerous nieces, nephews, relatives and friends. The Funeral Service was held Tuesday, May 17, at 2:00 p.m. from Stoughton Apostolic Church, with Pastor Robert Fenn officiating. Interment followed at Stoughton Cemetery. Pallbearers were Warren Blackstock, Leslie Blackstock, Bob Blackstock, Doug Blackstock, Linus Blackstock and Morley Dickie.

Ilse Wilhelmine Schoenemann Ilse Wilhelmine Schoenemann passed away peacefully in the early morning of Thursday, May 5, 2016 at the age of 96. She was predeceased in November 2014

by Wilhelm, her husband of 66 years and in 2005, by her older sister Elsbeth. Left to honour her memory are her four loving daughters: Christel (Gerry), Marlis (Greg), Heidi (Tim) and Carla (Andy); nine grandchildren: Megan (Cory), Shane, Matthew, Paula, Peter, Kiera, Mikaela, Aidan and Sophie; and three great grandchildren: Melissa, Jordan and Evan. Ilse was born in Oehna, Germany on Friday, November 14,1919 to Emma and Wilhelm Schlunk. Raised in this closeknit rural community, she was surrounded by extended family, neighbours and friends. There she developed the strong work ethic, discipline and practical skills that served her well throughout her long life. After the difficult years as a young woman during World War II and its aftermath, she met Wilhelm who had recently settled in Oehna. They married in 1948 with the expectation of raising a family and building a future in the community that Wilhelm had also embraced. However, in 1953 they made the very difficult decision to immigrate to Canada with their four-year-old daughter Christel in the hope of creating better opportunities. They put down their Canadian roots first in Yellow Grass and eventually Weyburn where Ilse worked hand in hand, side by side with Wilhelm. With much hard work and sacrifice they raised four daughters, learned a new language and a new way of life. Ilse was often a silent but always equal partner in all of their accomplishments. A much loved wife, mother, Oma, sister, aunt, cousin and friend, Ilse was kind and caring, trustworthy, generous and always had time to listen. Many enjoyable meals were prepared and served in her home. Guests were welcome, often at a moment’s notice, and there was always room for one more at her table. Ilse loved the land. For most of her life she had a large garden which provided fresh food for her family and gave her much pleasure and satisfaction. As a lifelong learner, Ilse enjoyed trying new things. She got her first driver’s license in her sixties which gave her some new-found independence. She kept up with current affairs and took her citizenship seriously. She liked playing games with her grandchildren and later in life, became an excellent Scrabble player even though English was not her first language. Ilse was a woman of quiet faith and a long-time member of Zion Lutheran Church.

She happily participated in activities of the church, making many good friends along the way. With determination, she remained with Wilhelm in their home until her early 90’s. Even after her move to Hilltop Manor, she stayed involved and interested in family and the world around her, participating in different activities and meeting new people while still staying in touch with old friends. Ilse taught by example and leaves us with gifts of love, integrity, compassion and courage. She will be deeply missed and dearly remembered.

Funeral service was held Saturday, May 14 at the Zion Lutheran Church, Weyburn, with Pastor Martin Olson officiating. Interment took place at Hillcrest Cemetery, Weyburn. Donations in her memory may be made to Zion Lutheran Church or to a charity of the donor’s choice. Condolences may be left at: www.fletcherfuneralchapel. com.

Route 2 (16 papers) 2nd Ave. NW, Scott Crescent

May 16 to 20 is a provincially declared week set aside as Sexual Assault Awareness Week, and Envision Counselling and Support Centre will be helping to raise awareness in the community about the issue.

“Sexual assault is a topic that we want to avoid, but we must break the silence and speak of it loud and clear to end it,” said Lynda Rideout, assistant executive director of Envision.

This year, to promote awareness regarding sexual assault, Envision will be engaging youth at the Weyburn Comprehensive School with sexual assault presentations and an information booth.

Students will also have the opportunity to send positive messages to survivors of sexual assault. “The statistics were pretty shocking.” said a young participant of a previous sexual assault presentation done by Envision.

Sexual violence crosses all ages, genders, races, ethnicities, and economic backgrounds. Although the amount

of sexual violence is alarming, there is hope for survivors and means to prevent it.

Saskatchewan has one of the highest rates of sexual assault in Canada, as one in three women and one in six men will be affected by sexual assault in their lifetime.

Envision Counselling has help for those who are surviving sexual assault.

The organization offers counselling and support through its therapeutic counselling programs with offices in Estevan, Weyburn, Carlyle and Oxbow.

Envision also offers education in the prevention of sexual assault.

Envision believes that education and awareness are key factors in preventing violence in communities and its website also offers resources and an avenue for support.

To follow what Envision is doing for Sexual Assault Awareness Week find them on Facebook or visit www. envisioncounsellingcentre.com.

The ceremonies followed with many attending. The graduates entered and Sharnareigh Levitt-Bishop sang O Canada, and Ocean gave the salutation address.

The Grade 11s gave the Fates and Ambitions for their class. The three grads then presented the Last Will and Testaments, and Payton gave the valedictory address.

Iris Warren gave the principal’s message, and Keith Keating of Southeast Cornerstone helped in presenting the scrolls.

The grads presented the parents with roses, and a slide presentation was shown. The grand march and a social followed.

Bonnie and Barrie Probe from Regina attended the grad as Ocean Larson’s guests.

After the news that Pangman School was to remain open, many Pangman residents attended the Save the School function on April 23 which was held at the Pangman Community Centre with coffee and doughnuts served. This was sponsored by the Economic Development board.

To this end, Tracey Cameron, a school teacher who usually directs a play presented once a year to the public, decided this year to put the money from this year’s play towards the fundraiser.

For two nights, on May 4 and 5, the one-act play with dessert and beverage was presented from the Stoughton Apostolic Church. Tickets sold for $15 each or $50 per family.

The comedy entitled “Wanted One Groom” was performed with actors Justine Giroux, Rayah Will, Jessica Baumgartner, Nikita Nahbexie and Tiarra Ogrodnick. Assisting Tracy was her son Austin.

The plot centered around a young girl desiring to marry who places an ad in the newspaper for a groom. The prospective groom responds to a different ad placed by the girl’s parents advertisiing an antique doll for sale but at the same address as

the girl placed her ad for a groom. What follows is a man thinking he was going to buy an antique doll but meets his bride instead. It turns out he meets all of the requirements for the groom and as he learns more about the bride to be he decides to marry her.

The venue provided a dinner theatre experience with table and chairs set up in the church’s sanctuary. The acting was excellent and the play well liked by everyone who attended as was the cheesecake provided by the SCC. The Stoughton Credit Union along with their Kisbey branch held their annual general supper meeting on April 19 at the Kisbey hall. President of the Stoughton Credit Union, Greg Goudy, was recognized for his 20 years as a board member.

Jolene Martin was recognized for her five years as an employee and Grant Hall was recognized for his service and retirement after 33 years.

Due to the current economic downturn the Stoughton Credit Union is not planning for any expansion of their branch at this time.

Seeding in Y.Grass progressing

By Betty Guest, 306-465-2876 Yellow Grass — Seeding is getting done in record time this spring as there are no muddy spots to get bogged down in or sloughs to go around.

Some good rains are needed now to support germination growth and settle the dust. Dugouts are at an alarmingly low level.

Much-needed rain fell in the Yellow Grass area the afternoon of May 9 and all day May 10. It was reported about one and three-tenths inches fell in town. Temperatures have dropped and frost was seen on May 13.

A brunch was held with 16 people attending at the YGULP Church (Yellow Grass United-Lutheran Partnership) before the Sunday morning service on Mother’s Day, May 8.

The group enjoyed miniquiches, fruit, cheese, muffins, ham rollups, coffee and juice. Tables were decorated with lace cloths and pink over-cloths.

Centrepieces were prayer partner gifts of flowers and ceramic candle holders.

All relatives and acquaintances in Fort McMurray, Alta., are safe in other locations to date.

Sunday morning services are held every Sunday at YGULP at 10:30 a.m.

under the leadership of Rev. Molly Kitchen. Parts of both the United Church and Lutheran worship are used. Hymn and song singing is accompanied by Gail Murray on piano and Myrna Steer on organ. The worship team members for May are Frank and Joan Klippenstein and Terry and Karen Westling.

Rev. Molly Kitchen, Eduard Baumung, Albina Baumung and Erika Altwasser held a Vacation Bible School planning meeting. Tentative dates are the afternoons of July 2527. Children ages five to 12 are welcome to attend.

Activities will include songs, games, crafts, lessons and healthy snacks.

Youth and adult helpers will be needed. More information will be announced as it becomes available.

The recent hot weather and wind has helped the trees to leaf out. The caragana trees were observed to begin blooming the day after the first leaves opened.

Perennials are slow to appear and need much rain.

Dandelions, however, are blooming profusely.

The Yellow Grass public library held a board meeting on May 6, chaired

by Keitha Thompson, with eight in attendance.

The Southeast Regional Library’s annual report and

highlights of the spring meeting were discussed.

Plans were made to hold the annual Farmers Market and bake sale library fundraiser on Friday, May 20 from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. in the library. Baking, plants, books and DVDs will be on sale.

The prompter was Jenna Robertson, and lights and sound were by Carrie Moore.

The Yellow Grass Community Club decorated the Communiplex hall and prepared the meals for April 1 and 2.

The Dinner Theatre group put on the meal for April 9, and the money raised that evening went to the Yellow Grass School Community Council. A total of $4,000 was given towards the new school playground equipment fund.

With various fundraising projects, the Yellow Grass Community Club was able to donate $9,025 to the Yellow Grass School Playground fund.

Small herds of antelope and deer are foraging north of Yellow Grass. Ducks and geese are nesting in dugout banks and ditches. Moose are likely to appear soon.

Birds are weaving all manner of materials into their nests. It is heart-warming to see healthy calves and foals on mixed farms.

Muffin morning was held at the Drop-in Centre on May 10.

By Edith Bernard, 306-442-4505 Khedive — The threetenths of rain that fell on May 9 was very welcome for farmers in the Khedive area after a long spell of dry weather. Seeding is well underway in the area, with some farmers already seeing the end in sight.

It has been a very dry spring with the danger of fire in the minds of some folks. There have been a few fires in our area, but

they were contained before there was much damage. One fire in the No. 1 Brokenshell Community pasture was caused by a power pole being blown over in a strong wind. Two fire departments and farmers with equipment were able to contain the fire and had it out before any more damage was done.

The Khedive Heritage Committee hosted a Mother’s Day brunch on May 8. There was a nice crowd

who attended the evening, and enjoyed a great variety of food and some visiting with their friends.

One guest was from Kamloops, B.C. The winners of the Mother’s Day raffle were Joan Klippinstein, Trossachs, winning a bench; Audrey Scott, Radville, receiving a bird house; and Alison Sambrook, Pangman, winning a gift basket.

Marnie Bernard flew to Goderich, Ont., on May

9 where she helped her mother Margaret Everet celebrate her 90th birthday.

Most summer birds are back in the area, or have stopped by on their way north. As of this writing, no kingbirds or swallows have been seen.

However, there are flying insects out now, so insect-eating birds should soon arrive very shortly.

The sloughs and creeks are dry, so there are few water birds in the area.

Weyburn 4-Hers compete in shows in Regina and Yorkton The Weyburn 4-H Beef Club members have had a busy couple of months with competitions, and meetings were held March 14 and April 11.

Plans are already well underway for the club’s Achievement Day for Fair week. Judges need to be found, meals planned, plans for decorations and awards all have to be planned for year end.

The members also worked on writing judging cards by judging pictures of animals and writing down proper reasoning for placing them as they did.

A few of the older members also talked in front of the group as to why they placed them the way they did.

At the April meeting the members worked on a feed chart and discussed whether the animal would finish on the ration they were feeding for achievement day.

On Feburary 25, Jade Charlton, Liam Evans and Gregg Wiens represented the club at the area public speaking competition and were eligible to go onto districts on March 20. Liam and Gregg proudly represented the club at this event in Tribune.

Several members from the club took part in the Regina Steer and Heifer show on Feb. 26-28. The members took part in educational seminars, judging and grooming competitions as well as showing their animals. Club members displayed 18 head at this show making them one of the larger clubs on display. The heifers are shown according to the breed of the sire and birth date and the steers are shown according to their weight.

Some of the highlights were: Ryder Fellner was fourth with his steer in the heavy weight class. Austin Knupp was second in his commercial heifer class and sixth in his steer class. Jenna Knupp was fifth in her commercial heifer class and sixth with her steer. Rylan Knupp won the shorthorn heifer class and won his weight division with his steer.

Rylan was also called back to compete in the championship class of intermediate showmanship both days.

Jackson Goudy was third with his heifer in the Simmental class and was also called back for the championship class for intermediate showmanship both days. Billy Goudy was third with his heifer in the Red Angus division and eighth with his steer. Carter Goudy was fourth with his heifer in the commercial heifer class and fourth with his steer in his weight division.

Carter was called back for junior showmanship both days which he won both days. Braydon Kot was seventh with his heifer in the Black Angus Division and sixth with his steer in his weight division. Steele Sylvestor was fifth with her heifer in the Black Angus division. Karson Piper

was fourth with his heifer in the commercial heifer class.

On March 31-April 2, several members went to the Yorkton 4-H Spring Steer and Heifer Show. Many of the members that went to Regina plus a few more went to this event. The club did an outstanding job at this show.

All members that attended were placed on teams for team grooming so the Weyburn Club had several teams participating.

In the Junior division the Weyburn team of Ryder Fellner, Austin Knupp and Carter Goudy won the top award.

Riley Croal, Jackson Goudy and Kobe Kmita were second in the intermediate and Daniel Fellner, Jacey Fellner, and Rylan Knupp were third in the Senior division. Kienan Piper participated with another club to make a threesome and got second in the senior team grooming. Other members who participated were Kegan Kmita, Jenna Knupp and Tyra Kmita in the junior, Kaden Piper, Karson Piper, and Billy Goudy in the intermediate. The first day was an open jackpot which several members took part in.

Only the top two were pulled out of these classes to advance to the final. Austin Knupp was pulled out with his heifer, Kobe Kmita with his steer, Ryder Fellner with his steer and Carter Goudy with his heifer.

Day two of the show was the 4-H portion of the show.

Once again the steers were shown according to their weights and the heifers by breed and birth date. Rylan Knupp was second with steer and second with his heifer in the shorthorn class. Austin Knupp was first with his heifer in the commercial heifer class and fourth with his steer.

Jenna Knupp was third with her steer. Jackson Goudy was third with his Simmental heifer and third with his steer.

Carter was first with his heifer in the commercial division.

Billy Goudy was sixth with his heifer. Kobe Kmita was first with his steer and second with his heifer in her division of the commercial heifer portion of the show. Kegan Kmita was seventh with his steer. Tyra was fourth with her heifer in her split of the commercial heifer division. Riley Croal was second with his steer.

Daniel Fellner was third with his steer, Jacey Fellner was third with her steer and Ryder Fellner was third with his steer in his weight division.

The Goudy boys were the only representatives for the club at the Saskatoon Beef Expo but they didn’t disappoint. Carter Goudy won the Junior Team judging and placed fourth with his heifer. Billy Goudy was fourth with his heifer in the Red Angus class. Jackson Goudy was third in the Intermediate team judging, won Champion Simmental heifer and won his weight divison with his steer.

Alameda’s 20th fishing derby a key fundraiser for community rink Residents will be able to fish until they drop at the Alameda Community Rink’s annual fishing derby, set for Saturday, June 25 at the Alameda Dam. This key fundraising event has become one of the biggest fishing derbies in the province. Northern Pike is the only species that can be weighed.

It is a catch and release day.

This is the 20th anniversary of the fishing derby. Those who get their earlybird entry paid by June 13 will have a chance to win a Bose Wave music system, donated by Magnascope.

Youth entries into the derby get a chance to win one of two bikes, sponsored by Souris Moose Creek Wildlife Federation.

Tickets are available at Alameda Agencies, Moose Creek Golf Club, or the Crazy Canuck at the junction of Highways 9 and 18.

Last year, there were 392 entrants.

The event is geared as a familyfriendly event, with the youth division having grown steadily in the last few years.

A youth is classified to be 12 years of age or under, based on their age on

the day of the derby. Each youth participant receives a pick-a-prize. The derby committee favours this format as each youth is allowed to pick what they prefer, instead of being assigned a prize.

There are six monetary prizes awarded in the youth division. Last year’s youth winner was Duayden Arndt, who brought in a Northern Pike weighing 6.62 pounds.

The adult division last year had 336 entries, vying for part of the $5,000 prize money and one of over 200 door prizes. Last year’s winner was Keegan Wahl, with a fish weighing 14.72 pounds.

Darryl Dauis, president of the derby committee, is the official weigh-master. He will be using a legally balanced computerized scale.

A flagged weigh station on the dock will be marked to help direct boat traffic and speed up this important weighing aspect of the derby.

The derby committee tried hard to ensure that fishermen will have assistance with both launching and coming off the water. They are always looking for volunteers.

With many of the anglers hav-

ing cell phones out on the water while fishing, numbers of fish being weighed has declined in the past years, as the fisherman often knows the weight that fish must be to qualify for prize money.

Derby day starts early with some fishermen launching their boats before 6 a.m., and then enjoying the pancake breakfast on site, prepared

by Jen McNabb and her crew.

Official angling starts at 8 a.m., and no fish are weighed after 4 p.m.

Fishing is allowed from shore or boat on water north of the dam. No matter where fishing takes place, it is a nice family event for an afternoon of relaxation.

After fishing ends at 4 p.m., the event continues at the Alameda Rink with the opportunity to have supper.

Prizes will also be awarded during the evening.

All entry fees include a barbecue beef supper prepared by the Oxbow Lions Club and served by the Alameda Figure Skating Club. A large Chinese auction is also in place.

In honour of the 20th anniversary of the fishing derby, there will be a special hat auction and a raffle.

CUPE Local 5999 collects grad dresses for Fort McMurray

Review Photo 10640 — Greg Nikkel

Representatives of CUPE Local 5999 gather in front of a selection from the over 100 grad dresses and formal gowns that were donated to be sent to the graduates from high schools in Fort McMurray. From left are Shawn Kilborn, national representative for Local 5999 to CUPE, Sunny Miller, Sandra Seitz, president of Local 5999, Wanda Edwards, vice-president, and health care worker Sarah Demarchi. Sunny and her family took a large number of these dresses up to a gathering point in Edmonton, and Kilborn also transported some of the dresses, as both drove up on Friday to deliver them. In addition to the dresses, the CUPE office also collected shoes, clutch purses and jewelry for the grads, suits for the guys, and even a couple of wedding dresses. Among the donations of dresses were nine brand new gowns donated by a dress shop in Big Beaver.

CUPE Local 5999 collects grad dresses for Fort McMurray Graduating students from high schools in Fort McMurray will be getting help from Weyburn in the form of formal grad dresses and accessories, and even some suits for the guys.

The Weyburn office for CUPE (Canadian Union of Public Employees) Local 5999 put out the call for people to donate grad dresses, and the response was overwhelming.

“It started with a post on Facebook,” said Wanda Edwards, vice-president of the local.

“Originally we thought we’d be able to take them up there in a car, but the community response is just overwhelming.”

The CUPE office ended up with 101 grad outfits, including some suits, along with shoes, clutch purses and other accessories.

“We’ve had a lot of tears but happy tears,” said Edwards.

To make the whole effort complete, a volunteer came along to transport the dresses, as tattoo artist Sunshine had begun a campaign to fill up a trailer with donated household items to give towards

the residents of Fort McMurray.

Through her posts on social media, she received donations of everything from bottled water, soap, shampoo and clothing to diapers, pet food, children’s books and toys, and towels When she heard about the efforts of the CUPE office to collect dresses and suits for grad, she volunteered to take the dresses with her.

She and her boyfriend left with a crammed-full trailer on Friday and took the load to an evacuation centre in Edmonton that is taking donations that are bound for Fort McMurray residents.

“The community has pulled together fantastically, with everything you need to get your feet back on the ground,” said Sunny.

The trip to Edmonton was successful, she said on Monday.

“The trip went great. The people accepting donations were fantastic and organized, and Shannon, the dress lady, was just amazing,” she said in a text, adding there were lots of hugs as she dropped off the donations.

She filled the trailer with household items like towels, children’s books and toys, diapers, bottled water, pet food and personal care items like soap and shampoo.

Glacier Media donates $50,000 for Fort McMurray

HELP FORT M MURRAY C

D O N AT E AT F U N DA I D . C A / F O R T M A C

SUPPORTED THROUGH

The JuneWarren-Nickle’s Energy Group (JWN) and its parent company, Glacier Media, are donating $50,000 toward Red Cross efforts in Fort McMurray.

The donation is also on behalf of other individual Glacier business units, which will undertake their own awareness and fundraising efforts to help the city and its residents rebuild their community and their lives, said Bill Whitelaw, JWN president and Glacier executive vice-president. Glacier, as one of Canada’s leading media and information services companies, has also created an integrated crowdfunding campaign, with all proceeds going the Red Cross efforts, at www.fundaid.ca/fortmac.

Glacier is deeply involved in communities across Western Canada with community newspapers (including the Weyburn Review and Weybutn This Week) and business information services, said Tim Shoults, Glacier’s vice-president of content and audience development.

“This way, we can rally our readers, our customers and our communities to get behind the Red Cross efforts in a way that allows contributions of all sizes,” explained Shoults.

From an energy perspective, it’s important for Canadians from coast to coast to have a sense beyond the headlines of how important Fort McMurray is to the overall Canadian economy, Whitelaw said.

“It’s just not an Alberta dynamic. All Canadians need to step up and help get this engine running on all cylinders again, putting people, companies and their welfare front and centre,” said Whitelaw.

“Canada’s oilsands sector is a key part of our energy practice at JWN …we know these companies and these communities well. Like all other organizations that have stepped up with support, we want these folks to know we have their back.”

JWN produces the Oilsands Review and Oilsands Navigator as part of a broad portfolio of oilsands products and services.

“As with our industry association partners such as the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers and Petroleum Services Association of Canada, we’re putting our contribution toward the Red Cross, to ensure the dollars we donate get amplified through provincial and federal contributions,” he added.

Glacier’s other business practices in mining, agriculture, environmental services and community media are also stepping up to keep the challenges Fort McMurray and the area faces in the coming weeks and months in terms of awareness, explained Whitelaw.

“In one way or another, all of our businesses touch Fort McMurray and Wood Buffalo. Besting the fire was just the first among many challenges still to come.”
