Tracy Keretesh’s pics turn heads in Sask photo contest
By Cory Carlick Staff Writer World class photographers are rare, and a lot of the time people assume that such mystical beings probably only exist in exotic locales, many miles away -- at least in terms of where they live. The actual taking of the photos in exotic locations themselves? Well, that’s just part of the job description. Melville photographer Tracy Keretesh is decidedly more local, at least in terms of where she domiciled. That having been said, she’s taken plenty of pictures in exotic, faraway locales. Her photography has been featured pretty much everywhere. National Geographic, one of the time-honoured litmus tests as an indisputable mark of success in the photographic community, has published her pictures. Harley Davidson has run her work in HOG Magazine, the classic roadster manufacturer’s official publication. The CBC also featured a spectacular image -itself taken in Melville -- a magenta hued tendril of lightning captured perfectly in a storm cloud over the town. Today, however, the locale remains in the Parkland, the subject itself being the province. Tourism Saskatchewan, which holds its ExploreSask photo contest every year, receives thousands of entries showcasing the natural beauty of the area to bolster tourism. As one can imagine, the competition is quite stiff. Thousands of photographers send in stunning images --- one after another, to the point where it can feel difficult to stand out. It often is. The images are spectacular as a matter of course. There is no shortage, and the judge’s job is not particularly enviable, either. Trying to pick the best out of the tidal wave of spectacular images is virtually impossible. Keretesh, however, captured the judge’s attention. Her images were selected by Tourism Saskatchewan for December. Yorkton This Week caught up with Keretesh where she told us a little bit more about her craft. One of her most famous images is the lightning image, and that’s one of the ones she talked about first. “It’s the Canon fisheye,” said Keretesh of one of her special lenses. “I had the Canon
8-12mm lens. I went out to do lightning that day so I wanted as big a sky as I could get. I’ve got, oh, I don’t know...five hundred lightning pictures from that day? Once I got through that, I didn’t have any other lens to go through. My cell phone picture was much closer than that – you know how wide a cellphone picture is. “As soon as I got through it [the storm], I turned around, took a picture of it and I sent it to Sean [a friend] because I thought it was a hail core -- the white line, since it was hidden in rain. I was like, ‘where the hell are you’, because he followed a different cloud that day. He said, well, where are you?’” He found out soon enough – she was a little too close to the storm clouds for his liking. “He says to me, ‘Get the hell out of there!’ Well, I had already kind of gone through it,” Tracy laughs. “I was down by the dome – the place out of Yorkton. So anyways, that guy that [has] that farm that’s in there, he lost the greenery in front of it. You know the big steel shed? That was no more after that [storm]. I mean, the storm
died after that; I chased it down to Churchbridge from there. That just was weird, because I woke up the next morning and Toronto was phoning me; Calgary was phoning me. And I mean, Sean had chased from here to almost British Columbia and back, and he’d been out for five days. I got up that morning with the family sitting at the lake, came back, was having a nap and the storm was over the house. So I left, and twenty minutes later I got the tornado, past Ryan Crouse [another storm chaser]. My thinking though was that if Ryan Crouse wasn’t going any further, I shouldn’t be going, either. “He was on the side of the road right at the Sakimay reserve, and I went up to the dome. I had it on a tripod. I have a time lapse of all of that somewhere.” Keretesh claims modestly, “I was just lucky with that lightning bolt on the tornado. [Initially when posted online], people said I cheated and put the lightning bolts in. I said, ‘Hey. You wanna see my raw image files?’ Because I can’t add lightning to raw files.” For those that don’t know, RAW files are the
(Above) - The photographer in her natural habitat. (Lower left) - The winning image. special uncompressed data files that the camera itself generates when creating the images. The original images cannot be modified without leaving a “thumbprint” when changes are made. Justice was served, however. “Three or four of the stormchasers got a hold of the guy that does the Facebook tornado warnings and said, ‘You know, none of us are ever going to announce anything on here unless you apologize to her.’ “It was kind of weird. I was happy. Just having fun with it. But man, if I could have got the tornado with the telephoto lens, you can kind of see it’s grainy with the debris flying around...I think it was three years before I got another one.” Another famous image is the eagle. “What I thought was really freaky was getting that eagle. I got three
babies in the nest this year, but last year, since I just spent so much time out there she just got used to me. “I took a biologist out there, Adam, from here in town and he texted me and says one day, ‘I’m a retired biologist and I have been photographing eagles and banding them for forty years,’ he says. “‘How are you getting pictures of these eagles?’ he asked me. ‘Because it looks like you’re right next to them. How far away from the nest are you?’ I said, ‘Oh, I don’t know. Probably, twenty yards at the most? I’m on a bit of a hill, and I’ve got a fairly good telephoto.’ He asks me how far away is the mother. I say maybe about 30 feet, and he asks me, ‘and she doesn’t fly away?’ I said no, she’s sweet. She preens herself, she cleans herself. He says, ‘You’re joking.’ I say no, not at all. You can come out with me
if you want. It’s private land, I’m the only one that has access, so come with me.” Sure enough, the biologist tagged along. “I parked the truck, but I didn’t have a good angle so I moved the truck. I moved it forward, I moved it back to his side of the window opening...and she [the eagle] slept through the whole thing. “He said, ‘I can’t believe you can get this close.’ Keretesh also had her famous bison image, as well as one of a dancer, selected in the 2019 ExploreSask photo competition as an honourable mention. Canon Canada also recognized the bison image. You can find out more about Tracy on her website: http://www.tracyportraits.com/ . She can also be contacted at (306) 7308117 and is available for photo bookings.

Every Christmas story
Staff Photos by Devin Wilger
The Paper Bag Players have been going throughout the area with their latest production, Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some!), which takes a comedic look at the Christmas canon. The Yorkton performance saw the group visit the Yorkton Crossing Retirement Community, delighting residents and guests with comedic riffs on every Christmas classic you can name. The cast included Kelly Kacsmar, Tami Hall and Christine Bradley, with help from the audience. More than a good time, the show was also a way to spread Christmas cheer, with the cost of admission including a food item for the Soup Haven.

Tale to be presented by Laketown Players April 30, May 1, 2, 3, in the Saltcoats Community Hall. Playwright Steve Farquharson has written a sixth dramatic comedy that can be counted on to provide some suspicions and suspense while exposing the foibles and peculiarities of being human and living in community with other humans. Ticket Man, Jim McCallum, (306-744-2214) has already been fielding requests for tickets from regular patrons of
the Saltcoats community annual dinner theatre that has built a reputation for providing good drama well-presented and combined with a popular “yet to disappoint” totally enjoyable meal.

Happy employees at Väderstad.
Väderstad named Employer Branding Company of the Year Courtesy of The Kipling Citizen The awards are coming thick and fast for agricultural machinery manufacturer Väderstad at the moment. Last week they received the ‘Machine of the Year’ award at the world’s largest agricultural exhibition. Now they have also been named ‘Employer Branding Company of the Year’ by research company Universum. At the same time, they also received the ‘Career Company of the Year 2020’ seal of approval
and climbed into the top 15 in a national poll of ‘Sweden’s best employers’. Things are going well for the Östergötlandbased family owned company Väderstad, which is a global leader in tillage and drilling, with over 1,500 employees around the world. The company is continuing to expand, and in the past year alone has taken on 100 new employees. The ‘Employer Branding Company of the Year’ award is given to companies that actively involve their entire organization in employer brand-
ing issues and offer good career and development opportunities. “Naturally we’re very excited about this award. We are a growing company with a high pace of innovation. Our ambition is for more potential employees to discover what an exciting workplace Väderstad is, with a good mix of entrepreneurship and technical challenges, as well as great opportunities for development,” says Annika Franzén, Vice President HR at Väderstad. The justification for the award from Universum’s

jury reads: “Väderstad has a strong focus on Employer Branding issues, an approach that is actively supported by the management team. With a long tradition in this field, they are one of the companies in Sweden that has worked the longest on such matters. In their work on the issues of attracting employees, they demonstrate a broad range of opportunities for potential employees within the company. Väderstad has shown an exciting mix of cutting-edge innovation and a focus on sales and marketing, and is considered by many to be a role model.” Sweden’s best employers The national poll ‘Sweden’s best employ-
ers’ is conducted annually by Universum. It gives employees a chance to evaluate their employer based on different criteria and characteristics they associate with the company, for example meaningful purpose and innovation. In this year’s poll, Väderstad has climbed from 18th place to 15th. Linnéa Danielsson, Support Manager at Väderstad, describes how she perceives her job: “Väderstad is a family owned company that cares for its staff. There is a great commitment here and you feel seen. I am incredibly proud of the products, although I myself do not have a farming background.” Väderstad a career company 2020
The fact that Väderstad is one of the most attractive employers for students and professionals is also confirmed by the company, for the fifth consecutive year, receiving the ‘Sweden’s Career Company 2020’ seal of approval, for the reasons outlined below. This honour is awarded annually to 100 employers in Sweden. “Thanks to innovative and committed employees working in an informal work environment, we can see that Väderstad is wonderfully successful in its work on Employer Branding. With a positive influence on and passion for its employees, Väderstad is hereby named one of Sweden’s career companies for 2020.”

Public consulted on future of Yorkton arenas By Devin Wilger Staff Writer What will the rinks in Yorkton look like? The Farrell Agencies Arena needs ice plant improvements, the Kinsmen Arena is reaching end of life. What’s next for Yorkton’s leisure facilities? The City of Yorkton and aodbt Architecture and Interior Design are exploring alternatives, and a meeting was held at the Gallagher Centre on Nov. 27 to get public feedback on what the future of Yorkton’s ice needs to be. The current proposal would see expansion to the Gallagher Centre, with an additional ice surface added to the facility
beside the current Farrell Agencies Arena. This would also see the addition of renovated dressing rooms. Mitch Strocen with aodbt Architecture and Interior Design said that the reason behind the project comes down the age of the existing facilities. The infrastructure supporting the Gallagher Centre and the Kinsmen Arena is 40-50 years old, which is putting it at near end of life. The Kinsmen Arena also has additional issues, due to a low roof and humidity problems. While the building is structurally sound, other issues have lead to the proposal of a new ice surface at the Gallagher.
The proposed new design would be a straight replacement of the Kinsmen Arena, filling largely the same role in the community. “It’s similar in size and similar in scope and the amount of seating, but with modern additions and efficiencies,” said Strocen. The public consultation is key to the process, Strocen said, because they want to be responsive to what the community needs and wants. While this is a very early meeting, Strocen predicts there will be many public meetings as the project moves forward. “It’s the taxpayers that fund it, so they deserve to know what’s happening in regards to this project.” The best case scenario is a year for design and a couple years for construction, Strocen said, but there are many other road blocks that can spring up as the process moves forward. This is especially true for this project, because it would involve renovating a facility, the Gallagher Centre, which would still be in use while renovations take place.
Mitch Strocen with aodbt Architecture and Interior Design speaks to City Councillor Darcy Zaharia.
“There are going to be a lot of moving this project, but we are hoping we can get it done within that time frame. That will depend on approvals, and things like that, and I think it’s prudent that Council to make sure that they make wise decisions. If it takes a little
Discussing potential plans for the replacement for the Kinsmen Arena. longer, that doesn’t bother me.” The other advantage to doing both ice surfaces at a single location is efficiencies in infrastructure, explained Strocen. All of the staff will be at the same location, as will all of the equipment. The other advantage would be for attracting events, as it would be appealing to have a facility with two ice surfaces for a provincial level tournament. But what happens to the Kinsmen Arena? Solutions
on offer include demolition, sale, or turning it into an a different recreation facility. One attendee at the consultation thought that the Kinsmen should be kept, and that the city should keep it as a third ice surface. She said that many minor hockey teams struggle to find ice time for practice and games, and will have to travel to surrounding communities.
currently proposed, that being dressing rooms. She noted that the current dressing room setup is especially bad for women, as they are often given a very small area which is difficult to change in and can barely hold one or two players. The proposed renovations have significantly improved changing facilities.
However, she did say that her main issue with the current arenas will be addressed by the plans

Sask. agriculture scholarship announced The 2020 Saskatchewan Agriculture Student Scholarship Program is now accepting applications from students entering an agriculturerelated post-secondary program. “Canada’s youth play a critical role in the continued growth and prosperity of the agriculture sector,” said federal Agriculture and AgriFood Minister MarieClaude Bibeau. “Our government is proud to support initiatives such as the Saskatchewan Agriculture Student Scholarship that provide young student leaders with the boost they need to succeed in the agriculture sector.” “Our industry offers unique and exciting opportunities for our province’s youth,” Agriculture Minister David Marit said. “Careers in agriculture are rewarding and challenging as we continue down a path of techno-
logical advancement and environmental sustainability.” The scholarship encourages constructive conversations about where our food comes from and how everyone along the value-chain, from the field to table, shares a role in shaping food production. “Agriculture is my passion,” winner of the 2019 scholarship Caylee Dorval said. “The scholarship was an opportunity to kick-start my career in the ag industry. I’m excited to continue my education and to learn more about agriculture and food production in Saskatchewan.” Students are invited to submit a creative threeminute video or 1,000-word essay sharing their food story. One winning scholarship of $4,000 and three runner-up scholarships of $2,000 will be awarded to students in Grade 12

• On Dec. 13, 1577, English seaman Francis Drake sets out from Plymouth, England, with five ships and 164 men on a mission to raid Spanish holdings on the Pacific coast of the New World. Three years later, Drake’s return to Plymouth marked the first circumnavigation of the earth by a British explorer. • On Dec. 10, 1901, the first Nobel Prizes are awarded in Stockholm, Sweden, on the fifth anniversary of the death of Alfred Nobel, the inventor of dynamite and other explosives. It is believed that Nobel created the prizes out of moral regret over the increasingly lethal uses of his inventions in war. • On Dec. 14, 1911, Norwegian Roald Amundsen becomes the first explorer to reach the South Pole, beating his British rival, Robert Falcon Scott, by more than a month. Amundsen used sleigh dogs, while Scott employed motor sledges,
ponies and dogs. • On Dec. 15, 1945, Gen. Douglas MacArthur, as Supreme Commander of Allied Powers in the Pacific, brings an end to Shintoism as Japan’s established religion. The Shinto system included the belief that the emperor, in this case Hirohito, was divine. • On Dec. 11, 1961, the ferry carrier USNS Core arrives in Saigon with the first U.S. helicopter unit, including 33 helicopters and 400 air and ground crewmen. Their assignment was to airlift South Vietnamese Army troops into combat. • On Dec. 9, 1979, a commission of scientists declares that smallpox has been eradicated. The disease, which carries a 30% chance of death for those who contract it, is the only infectious disease that has officially been eradicated. • On Dec. 12, 1980, American oil tycoon Armand Hammer pays over $5 million at auction for an almost 500-year-old notebook containing writings and detailed drawings by artist Leonardo da Vinci, all relating to water and how it moved.

Book receiving recognition was penned by former resident Courtesy of Kamsack Times People in the Kamsack area were among the first to hear about a book that has gone on to garner recognition. When We Were Shadows is the title of this book, written by a former Kamsack resident, Janet (nee Minuk) Wees. Published by Second Story Press in April of 2018, it is part of a series, Holocaust Remembrance Books for Young Readers, and has also been translated into Dutch. On July 25, 2018, Wees did a reading from this middle-school (nine to 13-year-olds) novel at the Kamsack Public Library. “It was a homecoming beyond my wildest dreams!” said Wees. That night she donated a signed copy to the Kamsack Public Library. The next day she did a book signing at Coles in Yorkton, where the book may be purchased. In October, 2018, the novel was nominated for the Red Maple non-fiction award, in the Forest of Reading Program sponsored by the Ontario
Library Association. In May, in Toronto, it was chosen as an Honour Book (second place out of ten finalists) in its category. Students involved with the program read nominated books and voted for their favourites. “To know that students chose this book, makes the honour even more meaningful,” said Wees. That same month the novel was short-listed for the Rocky Mountain Book Award, which is a similar program to Forest of Reading but for Alberta students. The award will be given in May 2020. “Even though the book was written for younger readers, adults have been reading it and inviting me to their book clubs,” she added. Wees, whose maiden name is Minuk, lived in Togo from 1948 to 1959, and Kamsack from 1959 to 1964, taking all of her secondary schooling there. “My parents and brothers lived there long after I left the area,” she said. Recently, in the autumn edition of news&views, the publication of the Alberta Retired Teachers’ Association, Wees had an
article published titled It’s a Small World, which she wishes to share with readers of the Kamsack Times, as follows: It’s A Small World by Janet Wees There’s a theory that each of us is only six degrees of separation away from anyone else. Microsoft researchers have proven it after checking electronic messages among 180 million people globally. I also have a premise that if you’re from Saskatchewan, there are only two degrees or at most three. This is based on a few experiences, and I bet any Saskatchewanian will support the contention. I spent my childhood and university years in Saskatchewan. My hometown sweatshirt reads “Kamsack, somewhere in the middle of Canada,” which I intentionally wear when I travel. Whenever I have worn it, someone usually comes up to me and says, “I know XYZ from Kamsack,” or “I used to live in Kamsack.” The biggest “small world” experience I have encountered occurred in
Author Janet Wees was with Nicole Larson, librarian, at the book reading for When We Were Shadows.
Lindsay, Ontario. I was pregnant and had a rash all over my body. I went to a Dr. Lindsay in the town of Lindsay. He looked at my file and the conversation went like this:
“Hm, Saskatchewan. Do you know where Togo (pop. 250) is?” “Yes! I lived there!” “Do you know M.K.?” “She lived next door to us and was our babysit-
ter.” “I married her. Do you remember the jet that used to fly between the elevators? It was me courting M.” Continued on Page A13

Preeceville Air Cadets to be recognized among Saskatchewan’s top cadets Courtesy of Preeceville Progress Saskatchewan’s top Sea Cadet Corps, Army Cadet Corps and Air Cadet Squadron are being showcased in a series of events over the coming weeks, stated a press release from Office of the Provincial Capital Commission. The 606 Preeceville Harvard Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron will be presented the Top Air Cadet Squadron in a special ceremony on December 11. “This is such a great honour and testifies to the dedication to the squadron from staff, cadets and the community,” said Captain Troy Rogowski. Flight Sergeant Almina Kovcic, who is one of the senior cadets who help lead the squadron, stated that it is a huge privilege for the cadets to be honoured. “We are a small squadron and to be selected out of all the other larger squadrons speaks volumes to the accreditations
of each cadet in our squadron. We, as cadets, do not always see the good things we achieve and to be accredited for all our achievements is a very proud moment for us,” she said. Saskatchewan’s Provincial Military Liaison, MLA Greg Lawrence, will be presenting Premier’s Commendation of Achievement certificates and pins to the cadets at ceremonies across southern and central Saskatchewan. The other top units chosen by their work on special projects evaluated by zone training officers are: Top Sea Cadet Corps was presented to the 346 ‘Saskatchewan’, Royal Canadian Sea Cadet Corps, Fort Qu’Appelle on November 27 and Top Army Cadet Corps will be awarded to the 2517 ‘Melville Legion’, Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps, Melville on December 12. “The cadet program is a wonderful opportunity for

that will serve them well in the future. Development in areas such as physical fitness and effective teamwork through this program are particularly important in securing future success.” This is the tenth year
the award ceremonies have taken place. The national cadet program is for youth aged 12 to 18. The program offers a variety of activities for youth focusing on leadership, citizenship
and fitness while learning about the sea, army and air elements of the Canadian Armed Forces. There are more than 1,500 youth enrolled in Saskatchewan’s sea, army and air corps and squadrons.
did this time! I told him my friend’s name and he said, “She’s my mother’s best friend.” He pulled out his phone and called his mother in Holland! On a train in Spain one summer, two couples, who were strangers, sat across from each other. One man warned the other not to put his suitcase on the top shelf or it would fall. The train did a quick stop and the suitcase fell. The four started talking and soon discovered that one couple was from Winnipeg and the other was from Kamsack! The Winnipeg couple included my first cousin; the Kamsack duo were friends of my brothers. In Europe, on a fast train, coincidentally sitting together, four people, connected to the same people from Saskatchewan, my brothers. Try out my theory the next time you travel. Always wear Canadian insignia. If you are from Saskatchewan, Roughrider
shirts or hats are a great conversation starter. Any Canadian sports insignia attracts new friends overseas. In Holland, just seeing our maple leaf means a hug from locals in thanks for Canadian liberators during the Second World War. Where are YOU from? I wonder, who do WE know in common? Janet Wees obviously loves to travel and even while not travelling volunteers as a White Hatter at YYC. Among various extracurricular activities, Janet taught students with special needs, developing a program for Gifted/LD kids. More recently (2018), she’s written an awardwinning middle school novel.

BOOK Continued from Page A9 “OMG that was you? My father reported you to the authorities.” Turns out, I had German measles in my third month of pregnancy, and after that connection I trusted Dr. Lindsay absolutely. Almost named my daughter Lindsay. She was fine, as it turned out. Before Expo 86, there was a B.C.–Saskatchewan reunion at BC Place. I met a friend from the University of Saskatchewan unexpectedly but really not a coincidence at a reunion like that. She said she had to go to her hometown spot to meet her brother, whom I’d never met. When we got there, she introduced me to her brother, and who should be standing next to him? MY brother! Turns out that our brothers were best friends! Had been for years! I never knew her brother’s last name; he was just “Rob” in conversation. Later that night at the dance, with music performed by Connie Kaldor (naturally!), everyone with whom I danced had a connection to someone I knew! Whenever there was a polka, I was wont to pull some unsuspecting soul from the fringes. One I captured worked with my sister-in-law. Another guy was a cousin to a woman who attended university with me in Calgary. Someone else knew a colleague in Calgary, and so it went all night. I always wear a Canada pin or T-shirt when travelling overseas. It works a lot like the Kamsack sweatHeritage Heights Lodge Homey and Affordable

shirt. In a Paris washroom in 1991, I met a woman from Prince Albert who worked with a friend of mine from U of S days. She saw my Canada pin and the conversation began, “Where are you from?” Interestingly enough, twenty-four years later, this time in Amsterdam, I met people who knew that same university friend from Prince Albert! We were staying at a B&B and a couple from Canada moved upstairs on our last day. We met them coming down the stairs and of course exchanged location questions. Turns out the woman not only knew my Prince Albert friend but had also worked in Winnipeg with someone I knew from Kamsack. One day while I was volunteering at the Calgary airport, I stopped for lunch beside an older man, a young woman, and a baby. When they said they were flying back to Saskatoon, I said I’d gone to university there. They asked me where I was from and when I said “Kamsack,” his excitement rose. He said, “Do you know Togo?” He was from a family that I knew and was coming from a funeral for a man I remembered from my childhood. A small world experience at the Calgary Airport happened when Calgary hosted the Juno Awards a few years ago. I was waiting with Burton Cummings while his wife filled out

Turns out that his piano lessons were a few doors down from my cousin. They used to play together when younger. That’s two degrees of separation from Burton Cummings! A more global two-tothree-degree separation at the airport, was when I met a young man who had disembarked from KLM and needed help. I asked him where he lived in Holland. He mentioned Nunspeet (pop. 27,000), which excited me because I knew someone there.

Nominate a charity By Devin Wilger Staff Writer There are plenty of worthy charities in Yorkton and area, and MR MIKES wants to know about them. The annual Deeds Well Done campaign collects nominations for local charities in every community where Mr. Mike’s operates, with the selected charity getting a donation for $500. CV Sastry, general manager at the Yorkton MR MIKES location, said they feel it’s important to donate to a local charity. The charity receiving the donation has to be one which is local to a MR MIKES location, and the goal of the program is to support the communities where they operate. A similar donation will be made in each of the 44 communities where MR MIKES operates, including Yorkton. “Being a business in the community we realize that we have a responsibil-
ity to our community as well.” While the restaurant also supports other events throughout the year, the Deeds Well Done promotion is different because it’s taking a cue from what people who visit the restaurant feel is important. “We want to make sure our guests have the ability to select a charity of their choice.” One of their hopes is that the program can raise the visibility of a charity as people nominate them and encourage others to do the same, Sastry said. Previous winners from Yorkton have included the Yorkton Regional Health Centre and Paws and Claws Animal Rescue. Those who nominate also receive a gift card for $25. They will get a card no matter which charity actually receives the money. To make a nomination, visit www.mrmikes.ca/ deedswelldone. The deadline for entries is Dec. 31, 2019.

CSLC makes application to waive fees By Devin Wilger Staff Writer The City of Yorkton is giving additional support to the Canadian Student Leadership Conference in 2020. Co-chairs Mike Haczkewicz and Johnna McBride made a presentation to council outlining plans for the event and where they could see the city lending their support to the event. Last year, the city had already agreed to waive the fees associated with criminal record checks for billets.
This time, the organizers were in front of council to ask for fees for the use of city facilities to be waived. The conference will make extensive use of city facilities, including the Flexihall and Curling Rink for a trade show and a banquet, the Agripavillion for a barn dance, the Prairie Oyster bar for an advisor social, the Industrial building for a meal, the swimming pool for a family night, the city campground to host an MGI Experiential Learning event. The total bill for the use
of the Gallagher Centre over this week would have been $28,670. They also requested that the city help them ‘paint the town orange’ through their flower planting program. Unlike in most years, in 2020 the majority of the flowers in the city will be orange, to match the colours of the conference. Darcy McLeod, director of Community Development Parks and Recreation said that their plan for flowers would not actually be an additional cost for the city, it would
just influence the flowers selected for the year’s planting program, which would be happening anyway. However, the CSLC will be giving back as well, through legacy projects in the city’s green spaces. They plan on having students plant 250 trees on Logan Green, and will work with the city for that legacy project. They also intend on doing rehabilitation and improvements to the Ravine Ecological Preserve, using wood chips on the paths and doing landscaping to make
it more usable for people in the city. There are also plans to clean headstones at the Yorkton City Cemetary. Advisors will work to restock the Logan Green fish pond. Councillor Aaron Kienle was especially excited about the planned legacy project in Logan Green, saying that he has wanted to see work happen in that area for a long time. One question that the CSLC co-chairs had will have to have additional work done to see if it’s pos-

sible. They would like to see if the YRHS signature cowboy hats could be hung from the light standards for the duration of the conference. The city promised to look into the problem, and councillor Ken Chyz suggested that if the cowboy hats could not be hung from the light standards successfully, an alternate solution would be to put banners up with a cowboy hat graphic. Council was unanimous in approving the CSLC’s requests, and the fees for the use of city facilities will be waived.
Yuletide Toy Drive in need of support from Canora and area Courtesy of The Canora Courier Residents of Canora and surrounding area once again have the opportunity to continue the Christmas tradition of helping local youngsters in need. Canora Ambulance Care is holding the Yuletide Toy Drive through the Christmas season for children who might otherwise go without gifts during this festive time of year, said Jocelyn Weinbender, spokesperson with Canora Ambulance Care. The first drive, organized by the late Byron Chayeski, an advanced care paramedic, was held in 2010. At that time, it was known as the Yuletide Medic Drive. Support for the drive
continues to be strong as the years go by. In 2018, 40 children from 13 families received toys for Christmas, Weinbender reported. She said it’s extremely gratifying to make a difference for families in need. “Helping other people is really what makes it enjoyable,” she said. “And helping children makes it that much more of a blessing.” Any families which contact Canora Ambulance Care with requests to receive toys are assured that they will remain anonymous. “It’s a matter of pride with a lot of people,” said Weinbender. “They don’t want other people to know that they have to ask for help.”
Toy collection has begun for children right from newborns to teenagers, and will continue until December 17. Cash donations are also welcome, especially where there are specific needs which are not met by toy donations. Donations of new items such as toys, books, crafts, games and so on may be left in donation bins set out at the following Canora locations: Red Apple (during business hours), Canora Pharmacy (during business hours), Canora Junior Elementary School (during school hours), Canora Composite High School (during school hours), Canora Ambulance Care (during office hours), Crossroads Credit Union (during business hours)
and CIBC (during business hours). Donated items not accepted include: used items, edible food items and bare wood. Food items should be donated to various food hampers around the community, while used items are welcomed by thrift shops. Weinbender said the Fill the Sleigh campaign will arrive at Red Apple
on December 7. “We are planning to bring an ambulance to Red Apple, with the goal of filling it with toys by the end of the day,” Weinbender said. She added that Santa will be making an appearance during the day to say hello, and also check on how the toy drive is progressing. Red Apple has made a commitment to donate 10
per cent of all toy sales on December 7 back to the Yuletide Toy Drive for further toy purchases. After the drive closes, Canora Ambulance Care staff will be given the opportunity to make their own donations and then wrap the presents. Anyone looking for more information or wishing to be considered for gifts may call Canora Ambulance Care.
During the annual Yuletide Toy Drive, on December 7, an ambulance from Canora Ambulance Care will be at the Red Apple store in Canora. The goal will be to fill it with as many or more toys than were accumulated on Fill the Sleigh day last year, as pictured.
