Community centre heart of MacNutt: Part I “Sometimes people dismiss the value of something until it’s gone… This is a facility that has immense value”. These are the words of Kevin Popp, committee member of the MacNutt Community Center. “I look at this and feel I have to honour the legacy and contributions to this point.” Popp’s words reflect his purpose being on the committee tasked with keeping the facility alive by getting it a roof upgrade. The MacNutt Community Center was built in 1967, celebrating the Canadian Centennial. Over the past 53 years the center has served as a recreational and meeting facility for the members of the MacNutt community. The facility boasts a three sheet curling rink, full-size hockey arena, and a 4500 sq. ft. hall and reception room. Kevin Popp knows
the old story about how proud community buildings deteriorate when left unattended. A former student of the K-12 MacNutt School, he used to spend his noonhours running across the school-yard to the Community Center where he could strap on his skates and hit the ice to skate around until it was time to return for afternoon classes. The K-12 school was once a proud community symbol that is deteriorating, now no-longer in service. Kelly Fatteicher, president of the MacNutt Recreation Board, a player for the MacNutt Kings hockey program and one of the ice makers for the skating arena says “[you] Couldn’t live with yourself knowing you didn’t do anything to preserve the building”. His sense of pride in
the MacNutt Community Center helped him become the president of the committee that takes care of it (The MacNutt Community Center is managed by the MacNutt Recreation Board). “In lots of cases this is the first place kids put on skates” says Fatteicher. Often on Sundays, Kelly comes to open the community center doors for the public and finds many different groups come through and utilize the ice. Whether it’s one young skater practicing late at night, as well as first thing the next morning, or a large group of young school kids playing hockey all afternoon, the rink is being used by youth and all community members alike. MacNutt, Saskatchewan resident Judy Becker said “This is where everything happens, it’s the only place available for public meet-

Borchardt, White coat CJGX - Jim Chornowka, ?, Delmar Markosky, Mike Tkatchuk. ings, events, dances” Currently, the roof for the community center is leaking in some critical locations. Patching will only delay the inevitable…..the roof needs to be resurfaced. The building has a solid foundation, but as the leak increases the overall impact on the building gets worse. Last year was difficult for the MacNutt Recreation Board, with monthly heating bills over a thousand dollars being handed to the facility. Bills of that magnitude make keeping the facility open difficult, but it is so meaningful to the community that it continues to stay open. The facility relies on constant fundraising but the support is there from the community and surrounding area. The budget for the new roof is for $200 000. This amount covers the cost to replace the roof and will allow the community group for some contingencies that could arise as the project moves forward. The current amount required is based on quotes for materials and other costs involved. The group has and continues to apply for various grants that may be available. MLA Warren Kaeding worked with the group to give some direction on grants available for the project. The Community Center was a need for MacNutt
in 1964. The municipality’s hall was deteriorating, getting to the point where it was about to be unusable. There was an outdoor skating rink and a two-sheet curling rink that were built in the 1940s, but improvements were needed for both. Initially, the skating rink and curling arena were partnered together in the new facility. When the hall was later condemned, the new facility moved in to form the current community center. The current fundraising group gave credit the foresight of the original designers for building enough extra space in the lobby area so that the hall could later be moved there. The members of the original building committee travelled community to community looking at different facilities. Judy Becker said “My dad had a brother at Eriksdale, Manitoba. He saw their facility and it was his dream to have a similar facility…He liked the incorporation of the curling rink/skating rink/kitchen facility area.” A report from the committee meeting minutes for the development of the community center, provided by Judy Becker states, “November 10th, 1964, the Centennial grant program was discussed at length and it was decided to let the committee work out a program” she says,
“That’s where it started. At the next meeting on December 8th, 1964, they already had an estimated cost of the materials for the rink” A report given by Andrew Antony estimated the cost to be around $21 000. A lengthy discussion followed…A Centennial Committee report was given by Delmar Markosky on the progress to date. A general public meeting was to be held to make everyone aware of what went on so far and what the future plans were.” Leslie Popp, Andrew Antony. Wilbert Morrison and Delmar Markosky were the original committee members who worked with the Board of Trade and MacNutt Village Council on the project. Frank Becker was on the Board of Trade who worked with the committee and MacNutt Village Council on the project. The Centennial grant did not cover a significant amount of the project; most donations came from community members. “There was a winter works project. Everyone who did the winter works project donated their money back to the rink,” remarked Frank Becker. He continued by adding “The donations at that time looked like individuals (single, unmarried) were requested to donate $75 while families were requested to donate $150.” Continued on Page A3

IN BRIEF
MACNUTT Continued from Page A2 Judy remembered “I was earning less than $200 a month and gave $75”. To put it into perspective in 2019 values, $150 per family in 1965 would be $1205 today. By Grand Opening in December 28, 1967 costs to build the facility had reached approximately $53,000 with fundraising efforts covering just under $29,000 of that expense. Community groups continued fundraising to cover these costs. There was pride in fundraising for the project, seemingly everyone in the community was involved in fundraising or putting hammer-to-nail. In 1965 & 1966 Community workers, a women’s group that nolonger exists, helped out by holding a fundraising project every month of the year. Judy Becker reflected on a dance the community workers group hosted during the build; it raised a grand total of $13. “We started selling cookbooks in 1966…inside the cover it reads ‘Let’s put our children on ice and keep them out of trouble”. The group rented the equipment needed, typed the recipes, went to the MacNutt school and cranked the pages off. Next they had to put them on the desks, all 138 pages, before picking them up in order, and taking them into Yorkton to have them stapled and printed along with the covers. The cook book was later re-printed with some updated information. Kevin Popp remembered the cookbook always being on his mother’s cupboard when he was a kid. Judy stated the best fundraisers were the lunches sold at the sports days and fall suppers.

Every month we had something, but we cannot do that now.” The Board of Trade also contributed to the original build efforts with their main fundraiser, hosting the sports days every year. There are photos of their sports days where the grounds are full of cars and people. One of the projects the Board of Trade undertook to raise funds was a turkey shoot where people shot at targets; a bullseye earned
the shooter a turkey. The current roof upgrade group is conscious about burning out their small group of volunteers. Their goal is to put on five different events. The first event coming up is the Kings Hockey tournament January 16th-18th. The rec hockey group has always been a very supportive arm of the MacNutt community. At the tournament there will be a pie auction on Saturday, January 18th at 7pm. The renowned pie makers of the area will be approached for donations; but other donations are welcome as well. Charitable donation receipts are given out for donations. For the pie auction, the renowned pies will be put on sale by an auctioneer for all interested buyers. For those unable to attend the Pie Auction in person, the group is hoping to stream the event Facebook Live on the MacNutt Community Center Facebook page. Bidding and donations

will be accepted through that medium. A fundraising dance/ social is planned for February 15th. A mixed bonspiel is planned for the week of February 17th. A ladies night and a men’s night are on the agenda as well. The goal is to get people out to socialize while enjoying some entertainment. Everyone is encouraged to come out to these events to support this fundraising initiative. The MacNutt Community Center Facebook page is used to keep area residents and those beyond up to date on facility events. If anyone is interested in helping with the project, the group is looking to give a way to contribute to the community of MacNutt in ways other than joining a committee or board. “It’s bad enough to see the school, the state it is at, because I remember going to school there and it’s proud history. We’ve learned our lesson from some facilities that we’ve just taken for granted figuring we could live without.” Kevin Popp continued, “The heart and soul put into this place will never be able to be measured. You don’t have that same sentiment anymore.” This un-matched sentiment can be described by Judy Becker. She states “My dad was just passion-
ate about this building [the community center]. He worked hours and hours. He hired somebody to work at his store so he could work there.” Nowadays, Popp notes how those in small towns have “become accustomed to going elsewhere for our services.” He’s right. Municipalities are more connected now than ever which allows citizens opportunities that were not afforded before. When parents travel to take their youth to another town for their activities, they give their time to that community volunteering to help the team in one form or another (donating time to the kitchen, helping with various fundraisers, etc.). As we’re so involved with multiple communities outside of our community, that means we have less time available to give to our home location; there are only so many hours in a day to help and volunteer. “[This is] my opportunity to give back to the community that’s given me so much,” Popp states, “I want to make sure this community doesn’t lose its identity. I don’t want to have that conversation about what could’ve been done.” Although there may

not be the 64-team bonspiel of old times held in the skating arena anymore, the value of the facility to MacNutt has not diminished one bit. As time goes on the facility becomes more and more iconic. Instead of becoming another proud building that’s fallen to the deterioration of time, the MacNutt community center has the people behind it to push it into the next generation. Like the group who built the original building, there will be a huge effort needed for the roof project. Like the situation with the original build, it will take a community working together to make the project a success. With a solid foundation under it and a proud community around it, the facility seeks to see another day. It is time for residents of MacNutt and the surrounding area to work together and inject life into the social heart of their community. With a new roof, the facility will be open for generations in the future; keeping its doors open and creating more memories for MacNutt’s community and surrounding area.

USask crop research projects funded Thirty University of Saskatchewan (USask) crop research projects have been awarded a total of more than $8 million through Saskatchewan’s Agricultural Development Fund (ADF), a program jointly supported by the federal and provincial governments and supplemented by industry partners. “This major funding commitment from our partners will address critically important crop challenges to help create a prosperous and sustainable future for Saskatchewan producers and communities, while helping to strengthen Canada’s agricultural sector and feed a hungry world,” said USask VicePresident, Research, Karen Chad. The ADF program is supported through the Canadian Agricultural Partnership, a five-year $388 million investment by the federal and provincial governments in strategic initiatives for Saskatchewan agriculture. Major projects announced Jan. 14 involving USask researchers include: • Improving disease resistance in crops: $1.34 million awarded to USask pulse crop researcher Sabine Banniza for four projects aimed at improving resistance to root rot in peas, chickpeas, and lentils, and to blossom blight in coriander and caraway. • Extending the growing season by developing early-sowing, fast-germinating seeds: More than $600,000 awarded to Canada Excellence Research Chair in Global Food Security Leon Kochian, a
USask pulse researcher Sabine Banniza examines a healthy pea plant at a University of Saskatchewan research site in Saskatoon. (University of Saskatchewan) USask plant scientist and associate director of the Global Institute for Food Security, to develop canola and soybean varieties that grow quickly into robust plants with strong roots despite a short, cold growing season. The aim is to reduce crop risks when seeds are sown in the cold soils of May. • Improving wheat breeding and production: $1 million contributed by the Saskatchewan government towards an $11.2 million project led by USask wheat breeder Curtis Pozniak and Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) molecular geneticist Sylvie Cloutier. The project,

announced last July by Genome Canada and partners and administered by Genome Prairie, aims to develop diseaseresistant, higher-yield commercial wheat using cutting-edge genomics that borrow genetic variation from wild varieties. Examples of other innovative croprelated projects with potential economic impact include: • Identifying potato varieties that reduce environmental impact and cost: USask plant scientist Kate Congreves will test modern potato cultivars for improved nitrogen and phosphorous efficiency. Potatoes are the single most important vegetable crop in Canada and comprise a third of all vegetable income for farmers nationally. By identifying the best potato varieties to grow in Saskatchewan, farmers can boost yields, increasing revenue, and reduce fertilizer use, decreasing costs and improving soil quality. • Turning haskap and Saskatoon berries into anti-oxidant-rich nutritional supplements: USask food scientist Nicholas Low will identify phenolics — compounds known to have anti-oxidant, anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties — in the pulp of Saskatchewan-grown and bred haskap berries. The phenolics have many potential commercial applications, ranging from health supplements, to food additives and colorants, to fighting cancer. • Using pulse proteins to replace animal products in the beverage industry: USask food research Supratim Ghosh will
study new ways to extract proteins from pulses for use as beverage industry additives. Using plant proteins can improve digestibility and shelf-life for beverages. Ghosh’s proposed method could reduce both environmental impact and cost. • Adding value to Saskatchewan’s lentils, peas and oats: USask protein researcher Mike Nickerson will develop new meat alternatives by fermenting a combination of lentils, peas and oats. Tempeh, a protein-rich and cake-like food traditionally made from fermented soybeans, lacks some essential amino acids. Blending pulses with oats shows promise in creating a “complete” protein that is not only high in protein and fiber, glutenand soy-free, but also tasty and commercially competitive. Industry funding for projects involving USask is provided by a wide range of organizations and agencies including Western Grains Research Foundation, Saskatchewan Wheat Development Commission, Saskatchewan Forage Seed Development Commission, Saskatchewan Cattlemen’s Association, Saskatchewan Canola Development Commission, Saskatchewan Flax Development Commission, Canadian Wheat Research Coalition, Genome Canada, Alberta Wheat Development Commission, and the Manitoba Wheat Development Commission.

Man with area ties named MCMA President Courtesy of Kamsack Times A man who has ties to this area has been named the new President of the Manitoba Country Music Association (MCMA). Miles Trach, formerly of Canora, currently lives in a bedroom community just outside of Winnipeg and is described as having been a staple in the Country Music community throughout the years as an artist and part of the MCMA as both a director and vice-president. Trach recently spoke to the Kamsack Times on the phone about this development. “I’ve been involved with the MCMA for a long time, so when the position of president opened up, I decided it was time for me to step up.” Trach, who is “happily married” to his wife, Elizabeth, with two adult sons, Brody and Noah, has been playing with different bands in the Winnipeg area for over 25 years, but he firmly states that his career in music began in Canora with Stan and LuAnn Ostafie who
operated the Parkland Academy of Music in Canora. “I developed my appreciation of music in Canora,” Trach said. “Stan is my dad’s first cousin and I started learning music when I was eight.” Born in Winnipeg, Trach and his family moved to Canora when he was in Grade 3. His parents, Lenard and Stella Trach, purchased and operated Trach Funeral Home. The family had many relatives in Canora, including his grandparents, Peter and Emily Trach. Among Trach’s Canora and Mikado family members were many musicians including his grandfather, Peter, and uncle, Laurie Trach, who would regularly entertain in the area with their fiddle and cymbaly music. Trach graduated from Canora Composite School (CCS) in 1986, and moved to Winnipeg in 1987. Although Trach is employed as an architectural engineering technologist working as a senior estimator and customer relations manager for Manitoba’s largest home
Early this year, Miles Trach was named president of the Manitoba Country Music Association (MCMA). builder, his passion is music and he has been very active in the Manitoba Country Music scene. Among Trach’s friends in the music business is Ryan Keown of Roblin,
who headlined the Smoke on the Water (SOTW) fundraiser in Duck Mountain Provincial Park for two consecutive years. “Ryan’s a friend of mine and he was also one of Stan’s

music students. Over the years as a music teacher, Stan has taught so many people, and has been such a positive influence,” Trach said. “I’m grateful for his influence on my music career.” Trach plays a number of different musical instruments, saying the accordion was the first instrument he learned how to play. He also plays piano, mandolin, acoustic and electric guitar and banjitar (a six-string banjo that has almost the range of a guitar). He also writes original material and is lead vocalist with the Hard Miles Band. “Probably Dukefest in Rossburn, Manitoba, is the closest gig we’ve played to the Kamsack/Canora area,” Trach said. “We don’t play as much as we used to but still play about a half a dozen gigs a year.” Trach is also passionate about his guitar collection. Earlier this past summer, Trach found a guitar on the Internet Marketplace site which he felt “needed rescuing.” “I thought maybe I could use it for a decorative piece, maybe make it into a light fixture in my music room or something,” he said. “That is, until I saw it in person and saw the ‘Canora’ name on the headstock. The place I still consider my home town. I handed over the money without even looking any closer. It was in pretty rough condition, but still in the original box, and became No. 14 in my collection. “I know Canora guitars were never known to be great quality, but I was excited to obtain it. Searching on the Internet I was unable to find a lot of information about Canora guitars, other than there were not a lot made, they came from Japan in the mid to late 60s, and were made in the same factory
as Ibanez guitars.” Trach set out to bring the instrument “back to life and see how she sounds.” To do that he cleaned up the body, neck and frets, re-glued the bridge to the sound board, took apart, cleaned and lubricated the machine heads, installed a new saddle, and put on new strings. After the work was completed, Trach enlisted the opinion of a friend who is a luthier, someone who builds and repairs stringed instruments, and it was confirmed that the Canora guitar would never be resurrected as a player’s musical instrument, but rather, would be a “wall-hanger.” “I was a bit disappointed that it had no value as a musical instrument, but it is a very unique keepsake,” Trach said. “Usually an older, solid wood guitar will have a better tone, and that’s why older guitars are preserved. The sound quality can improve with age, and they become more valuable.” Trach is very excited about what this year will bring for the MCMA. “The Association is taking on a greater role of partnering with the Dauphin’s Country Fest, and will be working with them to celebrate Manitoba’s 150th birthday. “The MCMA is undertaking some exciting initiatives this year, and will be celebrating their 6th annual Manitoba Country Music Awards in November,” he said. “There will be more opportunities for MCMA members to showcase their talents and song writing skills. The last few years have been a turning point and the MCMA has worked hard to have our members get recognition from the industry and recognition for the artists who are a part of it.”

Lifelong skills learned through power skating Courtesy of Kipling Citizen By Laura Kish “Huge thanks to some of our very own hometown talent who have graciously volunteered to help out our kids at this Powerskating Clinic. Austin Bourhis who played in the WHL and Logan Dew who played in the SJHL helped out on the ice,” comments Ashley Caouette who organized this event. The Power Skating School was held at the Kipling Arena a few weeks ago with instructor Derek Serdachny out of Yorkton. Caouette started planning for this event in October and Serdachny was available. “I absolutely thought it was necessary to have a power skating clinic here in Kipling,” explains Caouette. “The way that he skates is just phenomenal. What my boys learned this summer from him … I wanted all the kids to learn that. Derek gives the kids confidence and he requires strict discipline, the kids respond well to him. I thought this would be great for Kipling and there’s a lot of out-of-town kids here as well.” Twenty-seven skaters and a goalie took part. There were kids from Kipling, Carlyle, Redvers, Whitewood, Sedley and Montmartre attending. The kids were divided up into two different age groups with each group
receiving three hours of instruction. Derek Serdachny is a knowledgeable instructor with 14 years of experience coaching and instructing students in Canada and internationally. Derek worked with Steve Serdachny’s Elite Powerskating for seven years, instructing in Hamilton, Edmonton, Regina, Sweden, and Finland. He brings this knowledge to Yorkton and surrounding areas where he is the powerskating coach for the SJHL Yorkton Terriers. He runs camps for Yorkton Minor Hockey and surrounding communities throughout Saskatchewan. He also offers private and team lessons. Serdachny grew up and played minor hockey in Yorkton. He continued his hockey career at the Junior A level with the Yorkton Terriers. This is where he earned a scholarship to NCAA Manhattanville College in Purchase, New York. While attending Manhattanville College, he completed his Bachelor of Arts majoring in History and minoring in Psychology and English. He then completed his Bachelor of Education at the University of Regina and now is the Vice Principal and teacher at Churchbridge Public School. Skaters attending learned on ice training skills such as forwards and backwards accelera-
your arms to generate speed and coordination. I’m hoping to bring some of my knowledge when I took power skating to the kids now. I like teaching. I like working with kids.”

Derek Serdachny and his helpers led instruction all day Friday teaching the kids valuable skills on the ice. tion, improving speed and quickness, efficient tight turns and pivots, skating efficiency and stride lengthening, skating technique, speed with and without the puck, agility and lateral mobility, increased endurance, parachute training and skating and resistance. “Growing up in small Saskatchewan communities, ice was always available, however knowledge for training of the game was not,” explains Serdachny. This is where Derek and his hockey camps come into play. All levels of hockey have transformed into all speed and skill. If you can’t skate, you can’t play. Derek and his staff have the knowledge and commitment in getting you to the next level for
skating and hockey skills. Footwork, edges, and stick skills not only improve, but they obtained knowledge and ideas of different drills and exercises to take along with them to continue to work on. “Every kid loves taking the puck and shooting the puck, and that’s what kids really love to do, but it’s hard to shoot the puck when you can’t get there. And someone else is getting there before you,” comments Serdachny. “Skating is one of most, if not the most, important skill when it comes to hockey. That’s what we work on. We focus on puck work and moves, and stick handling and things like that. With the younger kids we’re trying to focus on technique and how to skate properly. Just work-
ing on trying to teach them what they’re doing now and how they can get better. More practice but also the right type of practice. Learn the proper way from the beginning. Even after taking a day clinic such as this one, their skills have improved 100%!” “The biggest thing is kids like to stand up when they get tired and the whole point of generating power is when you bend your knees. When you bend your knees and you lengthen your stride and you’re pushing at a 45 degree angle you’re going to get a lot more power. With the younger kids something as simple as skating with two hands on your stick. That’s not going to help you especially when you don’t have the puck. You should be using
“And the loud voice helps out too!” he adds. “I know Dasher (Derek) from my time playing in Yorkton so I know he knows what he’s doing out there with the kids and power skating,” comments Austin Bourhis who was one of the volunteer helpers out on the ice. “I’m kind of always looking for opportunities to volunteer or help out with hockey, and it’s especially nice to do it back home in Kipling,” explains Bourhis on why he volunteered his time. “Learning the fundamentals of skating and power skating is so important at a minor hockey age and needs to be constantly worked on and improved for as long as you play. It never stops.” “This was a great opportunity for these kids to get some effective power skating coaching from someone who knows what they’re doing. Kudos to Ashley Caouette for taking initiative and organizing this for the kids,” says Bourhis. “I’d love to have Derek come back again. Someone from another town heard about it and want to book him as well. I’ve heard positive things from a lot of parents already,” comments Caouette.

MHC Takes You From Classroom to Career From roads and buildings to machines and robotics, the Built Environment Engineering Technology (BEET) program at Medicine Hat College (MHC) gives students skills in drafting, engineering and design to create the products and places that move our world forward. BEET focuses on the core disciplines of the built environment; mechanical, civil, and building. Students in the program learn to research, plan, design, construct and test with considerations for the relationship between the built environment and the natural environment. Meet Cody Evjen, a Computer Aided Drafting and Design (now known as BEET) grad for some insight on where the BEET program can take you: Q: Can you explain what a “day in the life” looks like for you in your occu-
pation? As the technical documentation supervisor at QinetiQ Target Systems a typical day consists of me working with the technical document staff (technical illustrators, engineering designers and our technical writer) to review drawings and assist with designs. I also do designs of my own, and create technical drawings/publications. I set aside processes and ensure that those are followed and work closely with the director of engineering in terms of budgeting, estimations, level of efforts and identifying our expertise and skill areas. Q: How did your education at MHC help you in your career? The education I received at MHC helped me build the foundation I needed to be able to branch out into a variety of career paths. From there,
once I decided the direction I wanted to pursue, I could build on that foundation. Q: What path has your career taken since you attended college? As part of the diploma course I had a two week practicum at QinetiQ and about half way through they offered me a summer position. I worked the summer as a student and from there I was given a full time contract working as a technical illustrator. After four years, I was promoted to engineering, design and drafting technologist. I became a certified engineering technologist through the Association of Science and Engineering Technology, and from here I was promoted to lead. A couple years later, I got my current role. I have continued to further my education and received the project management professional certifica-
tion through the Project Management Institute. Q: What are your future aspirations? My future aspiration is to get my professional engineering license through the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta (APEGA). With this I would be a mechan-
ical engineer, with a more defined scope under that specialty. Q: What do you feel makes the BEET program at MHC special? You are able to establish a good foundation and understanding in all of the disciplines (i.e. civil and mechanical engineering as well as building design technology) which enables
you to pursue a variety of career paths. If you are creative and curious, with a clear understanding of computers, mathematics, and physics, the BEET program at MHC may be the right fit for you. Learn more about the program at www.mhc.ab.ca/ ProgramsandCourses.
Sturgis Museum announces big plans Courtesy of Preeceville Progress The Sturgis Station House Museum recently announced that it has taken on a large scale project of building an Agricultural Heritage Building. The project got kickstarted when the museum’s pole shed that was used to store outdoor artifacts had collapsed and board members made the decision to replace it with a more permanent enclosed building. Members decided the new building will be located on the east side of the museum. The site has been landscaped in preparation for the future building. “The new building will hopefully be built and ready in 2021 and will be used to house all our agriculture-based artifacts,” said Myrtle Boychuk, museum chairperson. Some of the artifacts scheduled to be housed in the new building will include: all tools related to a blacksmith shop, old wooden equipment used for digging, a wagon, a tractor, a stone mill, a honey extractor
and weigh scales from the Sturgis UGG (United Grain Growers) elevator. An old Minneapolis Moline thresher will also be showcased in the new building. The building will not be heated or have any electricity but will have large sky windows to allow appropriate light to view the artifacts. “We are just in the fundraiser stage and will be hosting several fundraisers to help with the cost,” said Boychuk. “We are really looking forward to the new building that will allow us to better display artifacts that have been in storage for years.” Fundraises scheduled will feature: a soup and sandwich at the Sturgis READ Club on March 13, a garage sale on April 25 and a Mother’s Day brunch on May 10. “We are encouraging the public to support the museum in its fundraisers and through purchasing memberships,” said Boychuk. “Memberships are an important factor in order to obtain grant monies. The benefits for members are discounts at the gift shop, free admission to the museum, voting privil-

The museum will open to the public on May 15 and conclude with a volunteer recognition in August. The museum will also host a Holodomor tour on
currently seeking families or past students to register for the event that is planned for August 22 and 23 and are encouraged to contact a member or email the museum. The tentative schedule will see an opening ceremony, breakfast, supper, church service and tours of the school. “We did a lot of renova-
September 29 and 30. The tour is based on educating the public regarding the Holodomor (death by hunger, in Ukrainian) which refers to the starvation of millions of Ukrainians in 1932–33 as a result of Soviet policies, according to information the Holodomor website. The Holodomor can be seen as the culmination of an assault by the Communist Party and Soviet state on the Ukrainian peasantry, who resisted Soviet policies. This assault occurred in the context of a campaign of intimidation and arrests of Ukrainian intellectuals, writers, artists, religious leader, and political cadres, who were seen as a threat to Soviet ideological and state-building aspirations. Executive members for the museum include: Myrtle Boychuk, chairperson; Kim Rose, vicechair; Verna Karpyk, treasurer and Greta German, secretary. Directors are: Hazel Urbanoski, Vern Poworoznyk, Karen Rose, Dale Bashforth, Linda Knutson, Verna Melnychuk, Barb Wagar and Stacey Wiebe (who was rehired as curator).

Open House showcases many options at Parkland College Parkland College in Yorkton will welcome the public to its annual Open House on Wednesday, Feb. 12. It’s an opportunity for learners to find out about the dozens of programs they can start or complete close to home. The event takes place at Parkland College’s Main Campus (200 Prystai Way) on Feb. 12 from 3:00 to 8:00 p.m. The event includes information sessions, campus tours, expo booths, admissions applications, prizes and more.
Whether you’re interested in a university degree, skills training certificates and diplomas, or the trades, the College has something for you. The open house is a chance for you to talk to current students, meet instructors, and check out classrooms and training areas. A major advantage of going to Parkland College is the small average class size. You can have more one-on-one time with your instructors and closer relationships with your peers – ad-
vantages which can help you make a smoother transition to post-secondary studies and get a leg up in the job market or at competitive colleges, such as Pharmacy and Nutrition, Medicine, and Engineering. Saving money is also a big draw for many students and their families. Learning locally is appealing to students who don’t want the added expense of moving to a larger centre and finding accommodations, transportation, and parking. Continued on Page A12

Local rinks excel at Preeceville Senior Bonspiel Courtesy of The Canora Courier There were 15 teams entered in the Preeceville Senior Bonspiel held during the week of January 7 to 11. The Laird Gervais rink of Crystal Lake and the Dale Zubko team of Preeceville tied for first place with 48 points. The Gervais team members included Jan Gervais and Bob and Donna Lumley. Team members on the Zubko rink were: Sheldon Luciw, Elaine Meachem and Joanne Boechler. The Joe Yacyshyn team of Preeceville with members Darryl Hanson, Mary Pasiechnik and Bonnie Paul placed third with 46 points. The Bill Foreman rink of Canora placed fourth with 42 points and the Ron Hoehn rink, also of Canora place fifth with 40 points. Other teams who participated in the daytime curling were skipped by: Larry Dahl, Brian Hubic, Ted Kreklewetz and Sharon Naclia, all of Norquay; Vern Schick of Canora; Ralph Ager, Les Braithwaite, Kevin Cook and Lou Roste, all of Preeceville and the Don Kurulak rink of Sturgis. “The 15-team entry equalled the most ever in the Preeceville senior bonspiel,” stated Joe Yacyshyn, organizer.

Agnes Dubelt collected the team fees and distributed the prize money. Mary Pasiechnik and Stella Gulka canvassed the local curlers for soup and pies in addition to preparing the sandwiches and setting up workers for
the kitchen. Ralph Ager looked after the bar and Sheldon Luciw and Phil Murrin were caretakers with assistance from other individuals. Bob Lebo organized the 50/50 draws as well as the draw to the button competition. “Bill Foreman dem-
onstrated his draw to the button skills by drawing (unaided by any sweeping) to cover the pin,” said Yacyshyn. “The Vern Schick team placed first in the team competition by outscoring the other 14 teams. Peter Wiwchar of Canora and Gailene Cook won the 50/50 draws.”
“Supporters of the spiel contributed large pots of soups and pies. The club is grateful for those kinds of contributions,” he said. Activities that continue at the rink include Monday afternoon curling with drop-ins welcomed as new teams are made up every Monday. The Wednesday
league has games scheduled and the Thursday two-person league schedule will continue after the open bonspiel, to be held February 2 to 9. “It is not too early to organize your team and enter in the open bonspiel,” encouraged Yacyshyn.

Catching up with Kaitlyn Lawes at GSOC By Devin Wilger Staff Writer
Why you should play tourist in your own town this winter From the beauty of a fresh blanket of snow to a comforting mug of hot chocolate, there’s a lot to love about winter, especially when you don’t have to travel far to enjoy it. Your region is full of surprises and places to explore, which is why you should spend your time this winter getting to know the areas closest to home. By being a tourist in your own town, you’re contributing to your local economy and will also benefit in a number of
ways. For example, it’s wise to stay close to home when the weather can change rapidly and road conditions can quickly worsen. Staying close to home also allows you to make the most of your time. With the sun rising later and setting earlier, there are fewer daylight hours to enjoy. When you don’t have to travel to a faroff destination, you can take advantage of the light without waking up and driving home in the dark.
Snowboarding 101: tips for beginners Are you thinking about taking up snowboarding this winter? If so, here are some tips to make learning this sport a little easier. • Take lessons. Snowboarding isn’t an easy sport to learn on your own. A professional will teach you the basics of skating (propelling yourself using one foot), turning, stopping and controlling your descent. • Avoid crowds. Choose runs that aren’t too busy, even if they’re a little more challenging than the overcrowded bunny hill. Having more room to manoeuvre will allow you to learn at your own pace, without worrying about getting in anyone’s way. • Wear protection. Frequent falls are to be expected the first
few times you hit the slopes on a snowboard. Protective gear like helmets and wrist guards will help you avoid serious injury. • Learn to fall. Besides wearing protection, knowing how to fall is the key to not getting hurt. If you feel yourself pitching forward, keep your arms close to your body and try to land on your elbows and forearms. If you’re falling backwards, crouch and put your hands behind your neck to protect it. You probably won’t master snow boarding on your first day out, but that’s okay. Most people need a few sessions or even a whole season to be truly comfortable on a snowboard. Take your time, have fun and keep trying.

For everyone who has made it to the Gallagher Centre to watch the Pinty’s Grand Slam of Curling, they were rewarded with excellent curling. The women’s side of the Meridian Canadian Open has been one to remember so far, with lots of close matches, unpredictable results and strong finishes. On the morning of Jan. 17, the Jennifer Jones rink notched up a big win against Chelsea Carey, with a score of 8-3 after 6 ends, and spoke to Yorkton This Week right after. Kaitlyn Lawes, third for the Jennifer Jones rink, said that they were really pleased with how the game went, and their goal was to set themselves up to make the B-final. “We’re really pleased how we got off to a great start. It was a good game with great shot-making. We just got a little fortunate early to get the steal and that helped with momentum.” The team was overall happy with the performance to that point. They did lose a “bit of a heartbreaker” against Alina Kovaleva early on in the tournament, but bounced back since. “We felt like we played well, we wanted to keep learning what the ice is doing and just keep going forward from there. We’ve had a lot of great games against strong teams, it has been a lot of fun,” said Lawes The Meridian Canadian Open is unique in the Grand Slam season as the only one with a triple knockout format. Lawes said that gives it a unique feel. “It definitely has a different feel from the round robin pools that we typically play in a Grand Slam, but at the same time in a pool format if you have three losses you’re also out, so you have the same amount of lives.”
A17
One thing that is consistent between Grand Slam events is the quality of the teams, and Lawes said that’s the fun, each team is a challenge. “All of the teams here deserve to be here. Everyone, if they play well, can win a game. That’s why we play, it’s so much fun to play at a Grand Slam, you have to play at your best, every single game. It’s really exciting.” Their next game was against the Eve Miurhead team from Scotland. Lawes said that to prepare, they’re making it a priority to be well rested. “When we’re on the road we try to sleep as much as possible. But we’re really excited, we are exactly where we want to be, with a chance to qualify this afternoon. That’s pretty exciting. We love to play against the Miurhead team because we know we have to play well against them.” The Jones rink would go on to beat the Miurhead team, before falling to Alina Kovaleva from Russia in the quarterfinals. Yorkton has had unique challenges this year, with the extreme cold outside the rink. Lawes said that they’ve laughed about how they have taken the car back to the hotel instead of walking to the rink, but they’ve been otherwise they’re able to cope even as temperatures dipped below -30C. “We’re from the prairies so we’re used to this.” Being a Manitoba team also makes the Jones rink close to a home-town team, and Lawes said they love playing in Yorkton. “It’s amazing they’re coming out in the cold weather, and they’re enjoying themselves and having fun. We’ve had some family come out and watch as well, it’s a fun environment, we love coming to Yorkton, every time we come out here it’s a packed house and a great environment to play in.”

Echo Valley Provincial Park offers the experience of a campground skating loop Visitors to Echo Valley Provincial Park this winter can strap on their skates and soak up nature by skating through a loop in the Aspen Campground surrounded by trees and breathing in the crisp winter air. Starting on January 16, 2020, Echo Valley Provincial Park will open “Skate the Park,” a unique campground skating loop that will be open every Thursday evening and Saturday afternoon until mid-March. “When we think about Saskatchewan Provincial Parks, there is more to experience than just camping,” Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Gene Makowsky said. “Our parks offer unique experiences for all of our Saskatchewan seasons and this opportunity to skate through a campground is one that everyone is going to want to try!” Echo Valley Provincial Park, located approximately 40 minutes North East of Regina will offer a unique and beauti-
ful skating experience. On Thursday evenings and Saturday afternoons, visitors can enjoy a skate through the campground loop, an ice sculpture perfect for a selfie photo opportunity, a food truck and activities for the whole family, including a bonfire to warm-up around. On January 18, visitors to the park can also enjoy guided snowshoe hikes and other winter recreation demonstrations. On February 14, Valentine’s Day, “Skate the Park” will offer a truly unique evening skate with a romantic touch! While the loop will be open to the public anytime, services available, such as the food truck, washrooms and the Visitor Centre to warm up in will only be available during regular office hours and on Thursday evenings (4 p.m. – 8 p.m.), Saturday afternoons (12 p.m. – 4 p.m.) and for the special events on January 18 and February 14. “Skate the Park” aims to remain open to the public until March 19, weather

Visitor Centre during the office hours mentioned above. The purchase of a Saskatchewan Provincial Parks Annual Entry Permit is a great way to enjoy park activities and events throughout the year.
A glimpse of Yorkton’s curling past By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer Long-time Yorkton resident, and television personality Linus Westberg was digging through some old papers and came upon a piece of Yorkton curling history. “I found in my files a bit of a historic moment in Yorkton’s Curling history. It was the start for the Richardson rink on their way to their famous Curling legacy,” wrote Westberg. It was 60-years ago when a men’s curling final was held in Yorkton at the old curling rink. The weekend action ended late in the evening with a packed house and Ernie Richardson and his now historic crew taking the title. “They went back to the hotel after much celebration and were all set for much needed rest,” related Westberg in a letter to Yorkton This Week. “I quickly went to the hotel and said ‘Ernie, get dressed we have to have you and the rink on tele-

I called our camera man (Wib Westby), and had them all on for a very special conversation that was so well received by so many.” The win in Yorkton was one of the early ones for the Richardson rink, skip Ernie along with Wes Richardson, lead; Sam Richardson, second and Arnold Richardson, third; that would go one to so many accolades. “From this first victory
in Yorkton, this rink went on to the International fame,” said Westberg. “They won everything and most important, this Richardson rink made such a wonderful impact on the great game of curling. They were so good with everyone, fans, press, young curlers and such great ambassadors of the game. It started in Yorkton.” In the picture ... left to right ...

The Sandra Schmirler Foundation was created as a legacy to three time world curling champion and Olympic gold medalist, Sandra Schmirler, in recognition and celebration of her love of family. Approximately 700 babies are born each year in the Yorkton Hospital.
Some babies are born with respiratory conditions causing them to have difficulty breathing or cannot breathe without assistance. The Yorkton Hospital needs a ventilator designed for newborns. This donation will assist the purchase of a neonatal ventilator, a ventilator designed to work specifically with newborn babies, for the maternity department of the Yorkton Regional Hospital. This will be the same equipment in use in the Regina and Saskatoon NICU’s. The transport

Paterson takes early win in Grand Slam By Devin Wilger Staff Writer The first match of the Meridian Canadian Open began at the Gallagher Centre on the night of Jan. 14. On the center sheet, the defending champion Brendan Bottcher, who won last year’s event in North Battleford, kicking off a three-game winning streak. Against him, Ross Paterson from Scotland. The match came down to the final end, with Paterson taking the win 7-5. Opening the tournament with a win, and a win against the defending champion, is how Paterson wanted to start the event. “I think when you come to events like this it’s always important to get off to a positive start. You’re not guaranteed to win your first game, but I think if you play well it gives you a little bit of momentum to go into the games that fol-
low.” Playing in the city has been a great time, and Paterson enjoys Grand Slam events because they know it’s going to be excellent ice. “The ice is great, Mark [Shurek] is a pro. When you come out to Slams you expect to have good ice and it gives the best curlers opportunity to play great curling and make good shots. We’re excited to play the rest of the weekend and hopefully win a few more games.” The Meridian Canadian Open is a unique tournament, with a triple knockout format, something that Paterson finds exciting, and a departure from most tournaments. “This Slam is a bit unique compared to all of them because of the triple knockout format, usually you play in pools and the top 8 teams qualify. You’ve got a couple of lives to keep yourself in the com-
Ross Paterson takes a shot in the first draw of the Meridian Canadian Open petition. This is the first time I’ve played this particular event, so to stay on the A road is great and we’ll just win as many games as we can.” While the team got an early win, the rest of the
tournament did not go as well for the Scottish rink. Their second game saw them running up against Brad Gushue, who went on to get the A-side of the bracket. They then fell to John Epping, who went on
to the finals, and finally finished their tournament thanks to Glenn Howard. Beyond the Grand Slam of Curling, Paterson has his eye on the World Men’s Curling Championship, which will take place in
Glasgow this year, but said that with every other rink out of Scotland having their eye on the same prize, it’s not going to be an easy one. “To play in Glasgow would be a dream come true. That’s my home town, so that’s the goal this year, we want to be there for Scotland and we want to win a medal. But, the strength of the men’s game in Scotland right now is very strong so we know that the national championships will be huge.” It’s Paterson’s first time in Yorkton, having formed the rink last year, though teammate Michael Goodfellow has played here before. “We love coming to Canada full stop. This is the coldest place I’ve been to. In Scotland we get a lot of rain but we don’t get it cold. This is a little bit out of our comfort zone but we just put a lot of layers on and we’re fine.”
Chamber of Commerce unveils logo By Devin Wilger Staff Writer The Yorkton Chamber of Commerce has a new logo. The voice of business in Yorkton last updated their logo in 1998, to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Chamber of Commerce in the city. The new logo was unveiled at the Chamber of Commerce breakfast on Jan. 21, with a blue and gold design with a wheat sheaf and canola flower details. Juanita Polegi, executive director of the Yorkton Chamber of Commerce, said that the decision to refresh came because they felt it was time to try something a bit more modern, more crisp, and something that fit better for the region. Part of the design process involved looking at what other Chambers were doing, and Polegi said that one of the fruits of the research was going with a gold, which she felt fit with what they were trying to accomplish with the new logo. “That made a natural fit, because of the canola and the wheat that we’re so well known for in this area.”

Skate Yorkton By Calvin Daniels Staff Writer A major figure skating event takes over the Farrell Agencies Arena in Yorkton the weekend of Feb. 8 and 9. Skate Yorkton will be hosting the Region 1 & 6 Invitational Competition, although the competitors are not limited to the local areas. “It’s open to all athletes in Saskatchewan,” explained Susan Nagy, head coach and Director of Skating with the Yorkton Club. While the majority of the 150-200 skaters expected will come from the two regions, Nagy said they anticipate participants from areas such as Fort Qu’Appelle and Regina. Region 6 includes nine clubs in the local area such as Yorkton, Canora and Melville. Region 1 is in the southeast area with 11 clubs including Carlyle, Moosomin and Estevan.
The event in Yorkton is focused on skaters who are just getting into competitive skating, allowing them to gain some important experience, said Nagy, who added there will be skaters up to the Gold Test level involved. The ages of skaters will be from four to 21. The event was last in Yorkton in 2013, with it moving between regions with clubs bidding to host, said Nagy, who added Skate Yorkton is pleased to have the event again. “It’s kind of exciting to host this event again and to showcase Yorkton,” she said. CanSkate In addition to hosting the upcoming invitational event Skate Yorkton is also taking applications for the CanSkate Learn-to-Skate program which begins Jan. 27. The program is for ages three-to-12, said Nagy. People can apply through the Skate Yorkton Facebook page or forms can be found at skateyorkton.uplifterinc.com
