Preeceville bed push continues TeleMiracle tradition

Courtesy of Preeceville Progress

The Preeceville Hospital’s annual bed push for TeleMiracle raised $5,225 on Feb. 16.

The bed push began in 1986 and throughout the years the bed push has surpassed over $215,000 in fundraising. The first year, the bed push faced some challenges with the small wheels on the original bed. The small wheels would get caught in the railroad tracks and would be very difficult to get out. “We have evolved and made necessary adjustments and continue to use the same

bed we used today,” said a previous organizer.

Some of the Long Term Care residents came over from the LTC to see the group off and encourage them as they set off walking down the street.

“This year, due to a small volunteer group, we had the bed pulled behind a truck. We want to recognize all the people who make this yearly event possible, including the individuals who walked behind the bed from Preeceville to Sturgis and to those who are behind the scenes,” said Sharon Draper, organizer.

“Participants left the hospi-

tal grounds on Feb. 16, determined to continue the annual tradition of the bed push,” she said. “They were escorted by the Sturgis and District fire rescue unit and followed by the Sturgis Fire truck. The rescue units’ flashing lights and siren signalled to motorists of the bed push in progress. After canvassing in Preeceville, the entourage made its way along the highway to Sturgis where stopping motorist gave generously. We would like to thank everyone for being very generous in giving donations. I would also like to remind people on the highway to slow down when they see an emer-

gency vehicle,” she added.

Those who participated in this year’s event were: Cheryl Walker, Sharon Draper, Keri Firman, Kim Rose, Marina Soltys, Amie Coleman and Megan Morton. Lccia Chalupiak, Corey Killniak and Joel Kolodziejak from Preeceville Mackenzie Centre also joined in the event this year. Brad Secundiak, Daniel Wasylenchuk and Ryan Yacyshyn from the Sturgis Volunteer Fire Department drove the fire and rescue units that escorted the volunteers.

The group had collected donations at the hospital before they canvassed in the

town of Preeceville and along the highway to Sturgis from passing motorists.

The Sturgis Kinsmen and Kinettes MiniMiracle made its presentation to TeleMiracle in Saskatoon that included the total amount raised in the Preeceville Hospital bed push.

“We couldn’t do this event year after year without the continued support of the Preeceville Hospital, Lions Hostel staff and families, friends and most important of all, the support and generosity of the community,” Draper said. “The generosity of people and how it all comes together amazes me every year.”

IN BRIEF

Vigil observes one-year anniversary of Ukraine invasion

Courtesy of Canora Courier

Joining communities all across Canada, on Feb. 24, a candlelight vigil was held at the Ukrainian Heritage Museum in Canora to mark one year since the Russians attacked Ukraine.

Approximately 30 Canora and area residents were in attendance. Dorothy Korol, organizer, said she was pleased with the turnout, “especially on such a cold winter’s day.”

Audrey Hrycak opened the program.

“On behalf of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress of Canora, we welcome you and thank you for joining us in recognizing the one-year sustained invasion of Ukraine.”

The group joined in the singing of Ukraine’s National Anthem.

All in attendance were invited to light a candle as part of the vigil.

A prayer for Ukraine

The Prayer for Ukraine was spoken in Ukrainian by Zennovia Duch, who then led the group in English.

“O Lord our God, You are the Only God in heaven and on earth, You have dominion over all kingdoms and nations. Strength and power are in Your hands, and no one can resist You. You rest upon the cherubim and the seraphim and we constantly praise You, so what can man do against you?

“Incline Your ear, O Lord, and hear; behold with Your eyes the evil intentions of our enemies. We believe that You alone are merciful and strong, and that You can deliver us from their hands. You saved Your servant David from the hand of the strong, showing, once again, that Your strength is in the weak, and accepted the sorrow of Hezekiah’s heart, granting him more years of life.

“Give peace and tranquility to our God-loving people, and recompense us not for our sins. For we remember the words of our Savior, Your Only Begotten Son, and our Lord Jesus Christ: ‘All who take the sword, shall perish by the sword.’

“Therefore, we do not rely on our weapons, but only on You, knowing Your power. You work miracles, from You comes victory and defeat. Grant our Ukraine a deep and inviolable peace, protecting her from war and invasion of enemies, and giving her all that is good for the benefit of soul and body. For You are the God of mercy, the King of Peace and the Savior of our souls, and we offer unto You glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto the ages of ages. Amen.”

After a moment of silence to reflect on the impact of the past year of war in Ukraine, there was group singing. Songs included Memory Eternal and In

the Meadows

Displaced Ukrainians welcomed: mayor

Mayor Mike Kwas addressed the gathering on behalf of the Town of Canora.

“We would like to send out our deepest condolences to the families of Ukraine that have lost loved ones, that still have family back in Ukraine and to the family and friends that are battling this unjustifiable war. It is good to see so many gathered here in the embrace of community, unfortunately I wish we were all gathered under much different circumstances.”

Kwas said this war has been a life-transforming event for so many people.

“It’s hard to believe that we are all standing here today because of something that has become such a senseless and meaningless war. This war has been going on for a year already, which is such a shame for the innocent people that have had to endure this pointless war. To think that in this day and age, the person who started this has chosen violence over peace. A year ago, to the day, when I heard about the invasion of Ukraine my heart sank, I could not believe that this could happen.

“I thought of all the innocent people that would be affected and how their lives would be forever changed. There is definite admiration for all the courageous men and women that

have been caught up in the middle of this war. They have had to have the courage to fight, the courage to stand up, and the courage to leave to live a more peaceful life.

“We as the Town of Canora are more than happy to welcome the displaced citizens of Ukraine into our community and hope that we can make their stay here a positive and inviting one. I would like to thank Terry Dennis, our MLA, for all of his hard work and positive attitude in helping to bring the citizens of Ukraine to our community. Thank you to all the volunteers for all their help in getting the families settled and to all the people that have made donations.

“When this senseless war is over, I hope that each family can take home a little piece of Canora with them.

“As we honour our grief, let’s remember to give thanks for the lives of our loved ones and may the light guide us forward toward healing in peace. Thank you.”

Committed to helping Ukrainians: MLA Canora-Pelly MLA Terry Dennis, Legislative Secretary responsible for SaskatchewanUkraine Relations, also found it hard to believe that “today marks the one-year anniversary since Putin’s senseless attack on Ukraine. Today, we gather to pray and honour those

who have died and those who continue to battle for the freedom of Ukraine and its people, and a victorious end to this war!

“Vladimir Zelensky and the resilient people of Ukraine have bravely battled Russia, surprising them as they continue to battle,” added Dennis. “The pride and bravery of the people of Ukraine will continue and they will win this battle against mad man Putin and the Russian army.

“Over 100 years ago Ukrainians moved to Canada, including many of our grandparents and families, and settled into Saskatchewan. They built this place and made a better place for us to live and call home. We now have over 140,000 people of Ukrainian descent living in Saskatchewan today, about 13 per cent of our population.

“The Saskatchewan Government has committed to sending humanitarian aid to Ukraine and will continue to do so. We have a Memorandum of Understanding agreement with Open Arms Air and have landed four planes of Ukrainian families from Warsaw, Poland with a fifth planned for the end of March or early April. We are also looking to secure more flights to Saskatchewan.

“Our government

is committed to helping as many displaced Ukrainians to Saskatchewan that want to come and start a new life. We have one of the best welcoming packages in Saskatchewan, helping them with social insurance numbers, health cards, driver’s licenses, applications for federal and provincial funding, housing, jobs and much more. Over the last year, we have welcomed over 3,500 displaced Ukrainians into our province. Our government and the people of Saskatchewan have done a great job on welcoming these families.

“We will continue to welcome all the displaced Ukrainians needed until this senseless war on Ukraine ends.

“Thank you to the Government of Saskatchewan, the UCC of Canada, the UCC of Saskatchewan, the various Ukrainian groups and volunteers, and to all of the people of Saskatchewan for opening their hearts and their homes to all of the displaced Ukrainians during this time of uncertainty. Slava Ukraine!”

Dorothy Korol closed the vigil by expressing gratitude for the support shown by everyone in attendance, and for those who participated in the program.

Greschner called to Sask Hockey Hall of Fame

Long time New York Ranger Ron Greschner is among a group of three former NHL players headed to the Ted Knight Saskatchewan Hockey Hall of Fame this summer.

“It’s an honour,” said Greschner in a recent interview with Yorkton This Week from New York.

At the same time the call wasn’t exactly a surprise.

“A lot of cousins have been trying to do this for a while,” said Greschner.

Certainly, Greschner’s resume suggests he is a worthy inductee, having played just shy of 1000 NHL games (982 regular season), all for one franchise, the New York Rangers. He would add 84 more games in the playoffs.

Greschner said had a back injury not nearly ended his career limiting his time to 39 games in 1981-82 - 1982-83 he would have hit 1000.

“They didn’t have the technology to put

you back together then. I thought my career was over,” he said.

Greschner acknowledged not a lot of players, even in his era, played that long with a single team, then joked, “it could be that nobody else wanted me.”

Still, the induction announcement was a special one coming as it did from Greschner’s home province.

“I’m still a good Saskatchewan boy, even though I’ve been away for 50 years. I still wear the green for the Roughriders . . . Saskatchewan is a great place to grow up,” he said.

Growing up in a small town in northwest Saskatchewan Greschner said hockey, and the NHL was the dream.

“When I was growing up it was all we knew –everybody wanted to play in the NHL,” he said.

It was as a youth one of Greschner’s best hockey memories occurred.

“One of the biggest things was meeting

CALVIN DANIELS Sports

Gordie Howe when I was young. I went to a hockey school in Saskatoon,” he said, adding he still keenly remembers Howe telling him if he ever made it to the point people sought his autograph write so they can make out the name.

Greschner said years later he would play against Howe then in his 50s playing with Hartford. He said he remembers Howe racing Dave Maloney, half his age on an icing call, and winning, testament to just how impressive Howe was.

Interestingly growing up Greschner said he was a Montreal Canadians fan.

Years later as a 19-yearold rookie it would be against Montreal Greschner scored the first of his 179 regular season goals against the great Ken Dryden.

“He was probably the best in the world at that time,” said Greschner.

While the goal was a personal career highlight Greschner said he was never about personal successes.

“It was the name on the front (of the jersey). It was always the Rangers.”

That said, Greschner admitted one regret, that his four children never saw him play, but all were born after he retired. He has however taught them well.

“They’re all Ranger fans. They love coming to the Gardens,” he said, adding later all four will travel to Saskatchewan for the induction ceremony.

The Induction Dinner will take place in Meadow Lake Friday, Aug. 25, at the Pineridge Ford Amphitheatre.

The New York Rangers weren’t even a team friends followed at least until Greschner met his future brotherin-law who followed the team.

“There weren’t any New York Rangers fan I knew back then,” he said, adding his future brother-in-law would eventually visit when he was playing in the WHL with New Westminster and they would go to watch the Rangers visiting the local Canucks.

It was while in New Westminster Greschner made a Yorkton connection playing with Clayton Pachal.

And then it would be the Rangers who called

Greschner’s name in the NHL draft.

“I ended up being drafted by the Rangers and Emile Francis,” he said, adding there was a Saskatchewan connection at play as Francis was from North Battleford.

Certainly there was a level of culture shock growing up in Goodsoil, Sask., and then arriving in New York as a 19-yearold NHL rookie.

Greschner said he loved growing up in Saskatchewan, but NYC quickly captured him completely.

“I just loved New York. I just love it today,” he said. “. . . I never thought I could love a place so much.”

While his career began in the 1974-75 season and concluded in 1989-90, Greschner never left NYC, and has worked with the team since retirement too.

“It’s one of the greatest organizations hockey has ever seen,” he suggested.

New offering reflective of chess

Over the years it has been perhaps all too common a situation to suggest a new board game is chess-like.

Of course they also say the greatest form of flattery is imitation, and given chess’ long history and lasting popularity it is not surprising numerous games at least borrow some elements.

That’s certainly the case with Gambit of Kings, a two-player offering which has each player with an array of pieces that move in their own way (think rook/bishop/ knight).

With Gambit of Kings the pieces are more diverse in movement, and typically less powerful in respect to not being accorded to free rein to go as far as possible along lines – like the chess queen.

The result is a game with Gambit of Kings that leans toward more tactics in moving forward into battle, but it will also slow play and engagement in the early stages of the game. That will entice some, but many will miss the far ranging pieces too.

The board is typical pressed cardboard, highly functional, if not outstanding.

The pieces are very ‘Stratego’ looking, and

you have to place stickers on each side yourself. That is a bit annoying in today’s world where 3D printing minis is so accessible, but the finished look is different enough to the market to stand out too.

In the base game the two sides have different creatures, but the movements are mirrored on the other side, so looks nice, but impacts play not at all.

There are hints at alternate army releases in the future, and if they offer alternate moves and are still play balanced –not an easy achievement – it would be a massive boost to the appeal of Gambit of Kings.

To learn more about the 2022 release, we reached out to Ryan Stutz, with The First Edition Gaming Company, publisher of Gambit of Kings.

Stutz noted he is an avid gamer.

“I enjoy games of all varieties, but my favorite games are strategy games. I may be biased, but Gambit of Kings is my favourite,” he stated via email.

Not surprisingly, Stutz confirmed the inspiration of chess.

“I love and excel at strategy games,” he offered. “Even as a child I had a hard time getting

THE MEEPLE GUILD (YORKTON)

meeple.guild@gmail.com

anyone in my family to play Connect Four with me because I always won.

“As much as the strategy of chess intrigued me, I quite frankly never found it fun enough to keep playing. Gambit

of Kings combines the abstract strategy of chess with a fantasy theme and customization.”

Stutz noted through a Kickstarter campaign they hope to bring in elements of chance to the game too.

“This provides a completely different feel to the game and I believe makes it more approachable to gamers who don’t enjoy the rigidness of a pure strategy game.”

As noted expansions are planned too, which again may be the game’s greatest strength.

“We plan to release many other expansion packs in the future,” said Stutz. “Some will contain new playing pieces and others, like the Adventure Pack, providing completely new aspects to the game.

“I think the custom-

ization and alternate ways to play is one of the most exciting things that Gambit of Kings has to offer as it keeps the playing experience fresh and enjoyable game after game.”

Definitely a game with chess roots, but the promise of some interesting aspects yet to come makes it one to watch for on Kickstarter.

Odelein named coach of SJHL South Division all-stars

The Yorkton Junior Terriers are celebrating 50 years in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League this season. To mark the milestone Yorkton This Week is digging into its archives and pulling out a random Terrier-related article from the past five decades of reporting on the team, and will be running one each week, just as it originally appeared.

This feature will appear weekly over the entire season in the pages of The Marketplace.

Week #24 comes from Jan. 31, 1996.

“It’s definitely an honour to be chosen by all of the other coaches in the division,” said Lee Odelein, who dismissed reading anything into the recognition. “I was just fortunate I guess.”

Several Terriers reveled in the selection of their coach as the Southern bench boss.

“It’s great,” began Terriers defenceman Derek Stevely. “It’s a chance for us players to sit back and take a little pride in (his selection).”

Stevely admitted Odelein was the reason he came back to Yorkton after playing two years in the Western Hockey League.

Terriers’ assistant captain Lee Rusnak felt the designation was long overdue.

“He definitely deserves it,” he said.

“For the last three years he’s built this (club) and he’s definitely earned the right to go.”

With one game left before the all-star break, the club is in first place – ranked 11th in the 119team Canadian Junior A Hockey League – in the SJHL with 70 points (339-4).

Terriers spend week on the road

The Yorkton Terriers were in another close contest Saturday as they visited Estevan.

Yorkton led 1-0 after 20-mintes on a goal by Brett Butz.

Owen Miley tied the contest 1-1 with the only marker of the middle stanza.

The Bruins edged ahead 44 seconds into the third period on a goal by Jagjeevan Phangura.

At 3:40 it was 3-1 as Owen Barrow scored for the home side.

Yorkton got back into contention when Greg Nelson scored at 9:52 making it 3-2.

But a Cody Davis insurance goal at 14:17 rounded out a 4-2 Bruin win.

Caleb Allen faced 38-shots in the loss for the Terriers, while Cam Hrdlicka faced 37 for the win for the Bruins.

Western swing

The Terries rolled into the Battlefords Tuesday evening to take on the high flying North Stars.

And for nearly half the game the Terriers played the SJ’s top team tough.

In the three years Odelein has been at the helm of the club as coach, general manager and marketing director, he has amassed a 104-6112 record – a 63 per cent winning percentage.

In his first year with the club – after one year as the coach of the Bristol Bull Dogs in England –he coached the club to a 37-25-6 record for fifth overall in the league and third in the south.

The next season, with four fewer games, he guided the Terriers to a 35-27-2 fifth-place overall finish, moving to second place in the South Division.

Joining Odelein on the South roster will be four of his players – Scott Prekaski (goal), Fred Slukynsky (centre), Neil Schell (left wing) and Joe Tassone (left wing).

Odelein pointed out the all-star game is a for-

mat for the South and North all-star squads and the fans. His being chosen to coach the South is beside the point.

“for the players it’s a chance to represent the South in the showcase and (show off),” he said. “There’s a lot of finesse and not too much hitting and grinding.

“Maybe this year we’ll change that,” he concluded with a grin.

The North Stars managed the only goal of the first period, a powerplay effort by Kian Bell, his 45th of the season, with only 38 seconds left in the frame.

Clay Sleeva tied the game for Yorkton 6:27 into the second period.

Unfortunately for the visitors the North Stars began to roll shortly after the Sleeva marker.

Steven Kessiering scored at 8:17, Zane Florence at 9:08, Bell at 10:57 and 14:19 – completing his hat trick – and it was 5-1 for the home side.

Dylan Ruptash added a powerplay marker for the Terriers at 15:25 to make it 5-2, but Jake Southgate responded at 18:25 for the Stars making it 6-2 through 40-minutes of action.

The Kian Bell show continued as he scored his second powerplay effort of the game at 4:01, then added his second unassisted effort of the game at 11:37 for a five goal, six-point night as Battlefords won 8-2.

Tysen Smith started in net for Yorkton allowing six goals on 37 shots before being relieved by Caleb Allen who allowed

Once upon a time I thought I’d shake things up and change jobs. Up until then I’d worked only with new mothers and their babies, which I didn’t know was my true calling until after I tried my hand at ER nursing. A big change often adjusts a person’s perspective and very shortly after starting in a larger city’s ER, mine altered drastically.

Nurses, as well as most health care workers, must certify for CPR every year. The nurses who work with newborns take an additional course dealing with the fine art of resuscitating babies. Nurses in ER, ICU and other similar specialty areas must take ACLS — an advanced course to gain the expertise to kickstart the more mature heart when it fails.

So … armed with the knowledge of how to

Nobody Died

help babies, off I went to learn about adults! The first thing I was told?

Adults are nothing like newborns. Great. The adult pump’s rhythm can virtually slip into any dance it thinks is cool, even when inadequate to do the job. To say I was overwhelmed would be an understatement. I agonized for days, learning the different rhythms and the appropriate actions to perform when seeing them, as well as memorizing the proper medications to give for each.

At one point, I was trying to regurgitate all I’d learned when my brain started to cramp. My insightful instructor, with her head full of knowledge and mouth full of answers, suddenly stopped me. Recognizing my anxiety she said, “You’re way too stressed about this. If you don’t do every-

PATTIE JANZEN Laugh at Life... Revisited

thing exactly by the textbook, remember … you can’t get worse than dead. Anything you do might help.” She probably said more but what stuck was, “You can’t get worse than dead”.

Although not exactly the same, my perspective changed that day. I learned to say “nobody died”.

I could accept negative things so much more readily after that. For example, when my grandson yelled out a cuss word in the front of a full congregation

at church one day … nobody died (although, from my embarrassment, I wanted to). When the only garage door at our condo refused to open and I couldn’t get my car out … nobody died. When I cut into the baking that I’d taken to a huge family gathering and found it to be raw inside … nobody died (humiliated yes, but not dead). When a stranger gave me a huge compliment about how young he thought I looked and I walked around with a spring in my step until

a few days later when I found out the man was legally blind … nobody died (only my self-esteem withered). When I stupidly took a quiz on-line for “people over 50” to determine what my brain age really was and it came up with 97 … nobody died (except a little more of my self-esteem). When we moved and my husband said we didn’t need a cleaning lady anymore, miraculously … nobody died.

There are other examples of when I gave this, albeit unsolicited but sage advice to others. An example: when my sister-in-law’s FIT test (yes! the poop one) rocketed out of her hand one stormy day and she couldn’t find it because the envelope was as white as the snow drift it had flown into … nobody died. Or worse yet, when her dog ate it

… nobody died (the dog didn’t either).

And here’s a little extra for all of us: When we barely eek out a word about any topic and immediately our phones alert us that we have a message about that very thing. Our minds may visit the validity of conspiracy theories but … nobody died.

So when life happens and something goes awry, ask yourself — did I or anyone else die? Remember … you can’t get worse than dead, therefore you can still afford some optimism!

USask-led research project receives more than $1.3 million to study bone strength development

SASKATOON – University of Saskatchewan (USask) researchers have received more than $1.3 million for an unprecedented multi-year study of the development of bone structure, density and strength in children with Type 1 diabetes.

Titled the “Canadian Bone Strength Development in Children with Type 1 Diabetes Study,” the five-year project was awarded $1,352,140 by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) Project Grant program.

The team, co-led by Dr. Saija Kontulainen (PhD) with the College of Kinesiology and Dr. Munier Nour (MD) with the College of Medicine, will take the helm of a project supported by researchers at facilities across Canada.

“I like the team effort. It’s great we have a USaskled national team,” Kontulainen said. “We want to use this opportunity to place Canada in a leading position to study and advance bone health in children with diabetes.”

The project will compare bone development of preteen-aged children with and without Type 1 diabetes over the course of four years. Using a

technique called highresolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT), as well as other scanners used to diagnose bone diseases like osteoporosis, Kontulainen and her team will attempt to map the bone development of children during the time of their growth spurt when rapid skeletal development occurs.

“Our hypothesis is that the bone growth in children with Type 1 diabetes differs, but we need to know how it differs, when it differs,” Kontulainen said.

The goal of this project, she said, is to answer those key questions, important for prevention of bone fragility life-long. Findings will guide the development of therapies or treatments to optimize bone growth.

Kontulainen lauded the nation-wide team of specialists working on the project, and said she was excited to continue the tradition of former USask scholars working in this field before her.

“This is building on the legacy of world-renowned longitudinal bone studies that were carried out at the University of Saskatchewan,” she said.

The project is raising the bar when it comes to the scale of this kind of research, and Kontulainen said the implications of their work would stretch far beyond Canada’s borders.

“It’s unique, and it will bring globally important information,” she said. “We will know how the bones are changing

… This is the collaborative way we should do research.”

This project is one of several USask projects to receive a total of $1,852,140 from the CIHR Project Grant — Fall 2022 Competition. The other USask projects receiving funding through this grant program are:

• Dr. Neeraj Dhar (VIDO) –$100,000 for a one-year project - Role of phenotypic heterogeneity in mycobacterial persistence: Prospects for more effective treatment regimens.

• Dr. Alyson Kelvin et al. (VIDO) - $100,000 for a one-year project - Preclinical Models for Monkeypox Virus Infection and Therapeutic Development.

Canyon promoting biography on new tour

When George Canyon takes to the Anne Portnuff Stage Friday, March 3, he will be doing more than providing a country music concert.

Canyon, who has had a 35-year career in Canadian country music, will also be promoting his recently released biography ‘My Country.’

So why write a biography on a career which is clearly still ongoing, albeit a successful one.

Canyon has won countless accolades and awards, including Juno Awards, CCMA Awards, and ECMA Awards to name a few. He has been inducted into the Nova Scotia Country Music Hall of Fame, recorded 12 albums, and was recently presented a certified Platinum Award for his debut album ‘One Good Friend’.

“I was asked about doing one 10-12 years ago,” Canyon told Yorkton This Week

“I just didn’t feel it was the right time.”

But with a decade passing, Canyon said the idea of penning his story seemed more appropriate, with 35 years to look

back on.

Still, Canyon said it might not have happened had COVID not put travelling to perform on the backburner, leaving time to tackle the project.

“COVID gave me time to write it,” he said.

Well, Canyon sort of wrote it.

Canyon said he is used to penning songs, but a book was a different experience. So while he did pen a few chapters, he said he also employed a ghost writer -- Michael Hingston.

That decision allowed him to tell his story in what was a more familiar way.

“I was able to sit in the studio and talk into a microphone,” he said.

It was a process not so unlike the many interviews Canyon has given through the years. He told his story, and Hingston turned it into chapters.

Canyon said he was very happy with Hingston’s work.

“He was really able to capture ‘my voice’,” he said.

The resulting book was ultimately both gratifying and a surprise to Canyon.

TERRIERS

Continued from Page A5 two goals on 14 shots in the loss.

Josh Kotai was in net for the North Stars facing 37 shots.

Coming off the lopsided 8-2 loss in the Battlefords Tuesday, the Terriers were looking for a better result Wednesday in Kindersley.

And the Terriers did keep things closer.

In the first period Cohner Saleski put Yorkton on the board at 10:31, a goal sandwiched between a pair of Klipper efforts.

Nathan DeGraves

“It definitely was surprising to me, just actually reading the book, what I had spoken. It was some kind of cool,” he said.

But, it also wasn’t an easy read.

“He (Hingston) would send back a chapter, but I couldn’t read them,” said Canyon, adding it was difficult reading about his life.

Eventually of course he did read the story.

“I narrated the audio book. It was very emotional when you’re reading about your highs and lows,” he said.

The concert in Yorkton will offer some new material too.

“I did a record that goes with the book,” said Canyon.

Canyon said being out promoting the book and recording with shows has “been a lot fun.”

It’s also changed the dynamic of performer and fan, at least for those who have read the book.

Canyon said he has had fans mention, “’I know so much about you now.’”

The fan now has far more insight into Canyon’s life.

“It’s very different. There’s a new level of intimacy,” he said.

had given Kindersley a lead at 5:46, with Alex Mack scoring at 11:17 for a 2-1 Klipper lead after 20-minutes.

The second period was one where the teams traded singles.

Terrier Dylan Ruptash scored 46 seconds in to tie the score 2-2.

But the Klippers edged ahead again on a goal by Logan Linklater.

The Terriers then found their offence clicking in the third period, with three goals in 1:27.

It started with a goal by Karsten Kruska scoring at 3:50.

Speaker

Marie-Josée Houle, FederalHousingAdvocate

Will host a ‘fireside chat’ about human rights, homelessness and housing.

Keynote speaker

Joe Roberts, a.k.a. The Skidrow CEO Will share his journey from living without a home or hope to living to help others.

At 4:06 Maddux Nollski scored to give Yorkton a 4-3 lead.

At 5:17 Greg Nelson added the Terriers fifth goal of the night.

The Klippers made it interesting with a powerplay goal at 19:44 but that would be it as Yorkton got to head home with a 5-4 win.

Caleb Allen was in net for Yorkton facing 41-shots in the win, while Cody Jaman faced 31 in guarding the twine for the home side loss.

The Terriers will be back on the ice Tuesday hosting Flin Flon.

The Duck Mountain Loppet returns after pandemic absence

Courtesy of Kamsack Times

The 42nd annual Duck Mountain Loppet returned last Saturday, with people and families attending from all ages and places, with some coming as far as Regina, and some being close to 80 years of age skiing in

the loppet.

Kevin Sutton, the organizer of the loppet said, “Many families are out here with their kids. There’s a two-year-old getting hauled around. There’s moms pulling sleighs. I think our oldest skier this year is 79 so far as those that are registered, so we got it

covered.”

After three years of inactivity due to COVID19, the loppet returned for its 42nd year. This time it was Kevin Sutton and his wife Cheryl organizing the event, as the Saskatchewan Parks and Recreation Association’s volunteer of the year award-win-

ning Bruno Lemire has retired from the loppet. Cheryl Sutton said, “So the 40th-anniversary loppet was in 2020. And that was the last year that Bruno Lemire organized.”

Lemire had also been known for creating a nature trail as part of the loppet, a trail decorated with wooden animals and creatures for kids to enjoy as they skied by. Unfortunately, due to the cold temperatures, there were not as many kids registered for the event this year, so the Nature Trail wasn’t hosted. The loppet hosted five, 10, and 20-kilometre skate trails, five, 10, 20, 25, 30 and 40-kilometre classic trails, and the Jack Rabbit routes and paths for their younger attendees. The Jack Rabbit program is organized by the Nordic Canada Ski program. The Jack Rabbit program tries to introduce kids to cross-country skiing in a safe and comfortable environment with most Jack Rabbit paths only being half-a-kilometre away from a ski shack. “We have hot dogs there for them and marshmallows that they can roast, fill themselves up and come on back. So Jackrabbit is a Nordic Canada ski program that’s offered in larger centres. We have a group

from Regina coming out. I think Yorkton is bringing some out. So there’s an opportunity for kids to get into a learn-to-ski program in the cities or in smaller communities that are called jackrabbits,” Kevin Sutton said.

The safety of the loppet was unquestioned with the Canadian Ski Patrol helping during the event, with various tents and volunteers patrolling the paths to ensure everyone was safe.

Sutton, reflecting on the safety of the loppet, said, “Well, there are no real safety concerns, everybody progresses at their own rate. The Hills are just very hilly here and that surprises a lot of people. So it takes them by surprise from a fitness point of view and also from a technical skill point of view. Can you take a little corner going downhill? Do you have the technique to go up-hill? And can you check your speed if it’s a really steep hill, which there are, do you know how to Snowplow, so it’s a progressive type of thing.

“It’s kind of like golfing. Sometimes you can golf forever and not get any better. But with skiing you can certainly improve your fitness and, with some tips, you can improve your technique which makes it more efficient for you and makes it safer for you. And our trails are pretty safe trails, they’re technical trails, but we make sure we have appropriate signage up. We make sure that we don’t have any traps if they are at the bottom of the hill. We don’t want any corners at the bottom of the hill. So we’re pretty vigilant about that. And these trails have been here for over

four decades so people have skied them both ways and people can tip over on a golf course as easily as they can on a steep up or down hill.”

“For those that didn’t come out this year because it was on the cold side, we’ve gotten colder than this. At minus 37 we teed off one time. And it’s not as hard as you think, we have 5k to 40k trails. And there’s a bit of a mix and match, if you want you can bail earlier since there are bailout routes. And you can always just do short ones and add on another loop. You don’t need a ton of fitness, you can gain a bit of confidence and come on out, it’s a great lifetime sport.

“We also have a heated outhouse now, a toasty tooshie toilet.”

Anne Stupak, on her 68th birthday attended the event for her 27th year attending the loppet, and said, “The Trails are the cleanest I’ve seen in decades. Without the wind they’re perfect. Kevin did a superb job.”

The event has had a notable amount of organization put towards it, with approximately 30 volunteers helping behind the scenes and out on the trails. The loppet partnered with Jared Ruf of In Good Taste Togo to host a dinner at the Border Mountain House after the skiing closed for the day. The dinner included sausage and perogies, a hearty hot meal after a fun day in the cold snow. The dinner was planned to have the country singer Ryan Keown play following the meal. But unfortunately, due to weather concerns, the singer and his band couldn’t make it, so the performance had to be rescheduled to another night.

Maulers miss playoffs but double wins

and

Maulers finish their season with a record of 16-250-3 for 35 points, and ninth

place just outside the 18U AAA league playoffs.

“Obviously we would

have liked to have done a lot better – you always want to be in the playoffs and be able to play hockey in March,” said Yorkton Maulers Head Coach, Darrel Mann, in an interview with Yorkton This Week.

“I definitely think we made some strides and doubled are wins up to 16 wins — 35 points — but the big picture is you always want to be playing in the playoffs,” said Mann, noting that the team doubled their wins in comparison to last year.

The Maulers then took over the period as Tyler Gudjonson tied the game at 2:20.

A powerplay goal by Edward Knittig at 4:47 gave the Maulers a 2-1 lead.

Alex Morrison added one at 9:26 to give Yorkton a 3-1 lead through 20-minutes of play.

The proverbial worm turned in the second period as the Bears roared back with three unanswered goals to take a 4-3 lead through 40-minutes of action.

“We kind of changed the culture a little bit –we’ve laid a foundation now and hopefully we can build on it,” said Mann, noting the team had “four or five” veterans and 15 rookies.

“Some nights it showed. The consistency thing was something that we had trouble with but in saying that I thought my time was definitely enjoyable – we made strides as a hockey team and hopefully that will lead into next season where we can improve on it that much more.”

The Yorkton Secon Maulers played their final game of the 2022’23 season, as they hosted Estevan at the Westland Insurance Arena.

The visiting Bears opened the ledger with a goal by Cade Cole only 1:03 into action.

Tristan Grohs started the comeback with a goal 2:34 into the frame.

Cole then scored his second of the contest to tie the game at three apiece. The goal came at 8:55.

A powerplay goal by Teigan Semchyshen with 1:42 left in the period was the go ahead marker for the Bears.

It looked like the score would hold as the game moved through the third period, but then with 1:42 remaining Lucas Hvidston scored as the Maulers enjoyed a man advantage to tie the game 4-4.

The tie game would hold through a fiveminute overtime, with the Maulers finally winning their season finale in the shoot-out 5-4.

Kaden Perron was in net for Estevan facing 32-shots in the loss.

Blake Sittler was in goal for Yorkton for the win facing 29-shots.

The two teams faced off Saturday as well.

The Bears broke out to a 2-0 lead through 20-minutes as Kole Keen scored both Estevan goals.

The middle period was one for the goaltenders, as neither team managed a goal.

In the third Lucas Hvidston put the home town Maulers on the board with a powerplay goal just 16 seconds in, but that would be the best Yorkton could muster in the game.

Riley Craigen and Easton Lee would add goals for the Bears, Craigen with a shorthanded effort and Lee into an empty net for a 4-1 win.

Riley Deck was in net for Estevan facing 35 shots in the win, while Wyatt Bouvier took the loss for Yorkton facing 25.

Soccer team earns honour

YORKTON – The Yorkton Regional High School Girl’s Soccer Team was honoured by the Saskatchewan High School Athletic Association on Feb. 7.

The honour comes from their exemplary sportsmanship at the 5A Girl’s Provincial Soccer Championship hosted in Regina Oct. 28-29 of last year.

Students and faculty packed the school’s Anne Portnuff Theatre for the presentation from SHSAA Executive Director, Dave Sandomirsky.

“It is well known that when there’s competition there is a winner and there is a loser,” said Sandomirsky in his address to the audience, adding, “in our society we tend to reward and celebrate the winner – but how do you react when you lose? How do you react when you win? How do you carry yourselves as a team when you’re in competition?”

“We realized some years back that this is an important aspect of school sport that requires attention and when it’s positive it requires recognition,” said Sandomirsky.

“The blue banner is a highly respected hon-

our,” said Sandomirsky, adding, “the gymnasiums that display these banners are in schools which strive to make sportsmanship, respect and responsibility a daily habit – part of the school culture.”

“At each SHSAA Provincial Team Championship committees observe the conduct of the players, the coaches and the fans,” continued Sandomirsky, “they watch for interactions with the hosts, the other teams and with the officials.”

“Over the course of the provincial weekend in Regina the Raiders played games against

varied competition,” said Sandomirsky, “the demeanour of the team reflected the demeanor of the coaches – they continued to play every game in a respectful manner regardless of the score and this made for an enjoyable athletic experience for their opposition, for the fans and for the officials.”

“The Raiders won and they lost during the course of the weekend. They were humble in their victory, they were respectful in their defeat and they didn’t get caught up in a moment to allow themselves to find places to lay blame – coaches and players alike maintained their composure and the integrity of the game,” said Sandomirsky.

“The coaching staff was second to none –demonstrating that competition is healthy but education through high school sport in invaluable in the development of their students – this recognition for sportsmanship is obviously a true sign of the positive school culture the Yorkton Regional High School has.”

“You have made yourselves, your school, your community and the SHSAA very proud of your athletic and sportsmanship accomplishments at the 5A Girl’s Provincial Soccer

Championship.”

The school was presented with a banner signifying their achievement and each team member was presented with a certificate acknowledging

their sportsmanship.

This is the sixth blue banner the YRHS has received from the SHSAA on account of their sportsmanship.
