The Raider Gridders were a force to be reckoned with at Friday Night Lights, dominating the contest against the Moose Jaw Vanier Vikings 42-3.

Raider Gridders dominate Friday Night Lights By Devin Wilger Staff Writer The Friday Night Lights game sets the tone for the YRHS Raider Gridders. Playing under the lights to the enthusiastic home crowd, it’s a chance for the team to

give it their all and show what they’re capable of at the start of the season. This year, the team showed that they’re going to continue their legacy of dominance, taking down the Moose Jaw Vanier Vikings 42-3. Coach Roby Sharpe

admits it wasn’t a perfect game. In particular, the team took many more penalties than they should have, and he said that’s one of the things they’re going to have to work on going forward, but he’s happy to see that the team is looking strong

for the new season. “It’s a nice way to start. We’ve got stuff to work on, but we look pretty good. We thought we were going to be pretty good, but you never know until you kick that ball off,” said Sharpe. Many strong players

graduated last year, but with Connor Watrych taking over at QB and lots of young players already starting to make a name for themselves, the future looks good for the team. “We keep saying, we don’t need to rebuild in Yorkton anymore, we just

need to reload. We have lots of good players coming up through the ranks, hopefully we will be strong for a while.” The next match is against Swift Current, at home on Sept. 21 at 2:00 p.m.

City gets nearly $1 million in gas tax top up By Devin Wilger Staff Writer The City of Yorkton has received some extra funds from the federal government. The city received a one-time transfer of $996,548 thanks to a ‘top up’ from the Gas Tax Fund, which is intended to be used for infrastructure projects in cities in Canada. “We’re lucky enough that they decided to double the total amount available this year, so we’ve received double the normal, one million amount we get,” said

Ashley Stradeski, Director of Finance for the City of Yorkton. Yorkton regularly receives approximately $965,000 from the fund, which has been used for such as the Highway #9 I n t e r s e c t i o n Improvements (2006 – 2007), Street Light Improvements (2007 – 2008 – 2009), Broadway and Bradbrooke Reconstruction (2010 – 2011) and Storm Water Management project (Drainage project). While Councillor Ken Chyz noted that it was ‘humerous’ that the city received the extra funds

We’re lucky enough that they decided to double the total amount available this year so we’ve received double the normal, one million amount we get. — Ashley Stradeski, Director of Finance with an election on the horizon, council was appreciative of the increased funding. “We’re doing a lot of good infrastructure work and I think we have a lot more to do, and that’s

exactly what this money is intended for,” sais Stradeski. The money has been allocated towards approved projects which were not fully funded. In other words, the city will

not have to borrow money in order to complete these projects, allowing them to pay less money overall as well as continue to new projects sooner. “It prevents us from

having to fund these projects over a longer term using external debt. It keeps our interest costs down, which is a benefit to all taxpayers,” said Stradeski. One project specifically which will benefit from the funds is scheduled for next year, a reconstruction on Darlington Ave. and Mayhew St. at the intersection. “Those are projects large enough that we would be borrowing for, so this lowers the amount we would have to borrow and shortens the payback period.”

Harvest Meats partners with Gallagher Centre By Devin Wilger Staff Writer A big change has happened in the Gallagher Centre. The concession stand has a new sponsor, new look, and new chef working behind the scenes. It is now the Harvest Grill, with Harvest Meats on board as sponsor for the next three years with an option to renew for three more. The sponsorship comes with a lot of changes for the concession itself. It looks different, with a more open design. In terms of convenience, a new point-of-sale system means that debit and credit cards are now welcome. A big change will be the food, and the Harvest Grill features Chef Aron Thiessen, a red seal chef. Events Manager Jan Morrison said that in hiring Thiessen his knowledge will translate to the food, as well as the operation of the concession itself. They hope that with an experienced chef at the helm they will be able to find efficiencies

in the operation of the concession. The choices for the menu come from listening to the public, said Morrison. That means more healthy options, as well as making more from scratch. The decision to approach Harvest Meats for a partnership came from a desire to connect with a major local business. “You hear people all of the time talking about shopping local, we went one step further and partnered local. Now we’re going to be able to showcase their products at our concession,” Morrison said. Geoff Propp, VicePresident and General Manager of Harvest Meats, said that from their perspective, it was a natural fit to sponsor the Harvest Grill. “We love to do as much as we can in the community... We’re super excited about the opportunity, and are looking forward to the partnership for the three year term, and hopefully beyond that as well.”

Back Row: Darcy McLeod, Director, Community Development, Parks and Recreation Department; Councillor Darcy Zaharia; Councillor Aaron Kienle, Geoff Propp, Vice-President and General manager, Harvest Meats; Jan Morrison, Events manager, Gallagher Centre; Chef Aron Thiessen, Concession Coordinator; Fergus Wilson, Harvest Grill staff member; Front Row: Paul Keys, General Manager, Gallagher Centre; Councillor Mitch Hipplsey; Cindy Alexander, Gallagher Centre Events Coordinator; Kristy Propp; Councillor Randy Goulden, Mayor Bob Maloney. With Harvest Meats on board as sponsor, that means there will be Harvest products on the menu. Propp said that their goal is to work with the chef to put together a menu that makes sense, and he will be touring Harvest Meats to help

plan the menu. “With a chef on board, he can cook up all kinds of things for the public to try.” Propp also sees potential to use the concession as a way to test out new products, as a ‘test kitchen’ to give people an

early glimpse of what Harvest Meats wants to try next. “It gives us a forum to try new products... Put it on the menu, see how well it tests. New things we’re planning to take to market.” It will be open during

all events at the Gallagher Centre, and Morrison recommends that people get to the upcoming Yorkton Terriers home opener on Sept. 13 a bit early, to have a meal at the Harvest Grill to see – and taste – the changes for themselves.

Time to help fill the Food Bank shelves By Devin Wilger Staff Writer There is an empty storefront at the Parkland Mall. Inside are bare shelves and a couple of empty bins. The hope is that by Sept. 29, the entire space will be full of food to send to the Salvation Army Food Bank. Kim Spilchen with the Parkland Mall said that the food drive is something they have wanted to do, and they have a space to fill. “That’s what we want to do, to have 525 sq. ft. full of nonperishable food items for the Salvation Army Food Bank.” The first donation was from a mall tenant, with Save-On Foods donating a large quantity of canned goods to help get the ball rolling.

Lieutenant Samuel Tim with the Salvation Army said that the food drive comes as the Food Bank has empty shelves. With back to school being a difficult time for some families. “We had so much need in the summer with kids going back to school, so now our shelves are very bare. With this happening, we are going to be able to restock our shelves for the fall season.” Tim is grateful to the mall for its backing, and the support of the community as they work to feed people who need it. “This is the first of its kind, where the mall will have a storefront where people can come in and donate canned food to the food bank. We are very excited for this partnership, not very many

communities will support us this way.” Examples of food they are looking for is canned food, pasta, juice boxes, cereal, rice, ready-to-go meals, canned fruit and vegetables, peanut butter, instant oatmeal and instant formula. “Food that has a longer life span, which we can put on the shelf and give to people who will probably need to keep it for a while,” said Tim, while emphasizing they will take all kinds of food at the Food Bank, as well as items like sanitary items. While the food drive is located within the Parkland Mall, the impact will be felt far beyond the walls, and Spilchen hopes that they inspire the entire community to help out. “We hope the entire community will get

Booths at this year’s Sunflower Art and Craft Market, which featured a wide range of products for people to browse and buy.

Old School Furniture a Sunflower highlight By Devin Wilger Staff Writer Every fall, the Sunflower Art and Craft Market showcases creativity, filling the Gallagher Centre with booths that show a wide range of art, crafts, food and creative goods, all for sale to the public. Jennifer Petrichuk of Old School Furnishings was at Sunflower for the first time, showing off her unique furniture. Starting with old pieces, Petrichuk paint and refinishes them, often giving them a new use in the process. A former sewing machine becomes a new sink, a chest of drawers becomes a dog kennel. “What I do is try to find old furniture, scout it out anywhere that I

can,” Petrichuk said. Each piece takes a lot of time. They are sanded down, repainted and refinished, and become completely different pieces in the process. She uses automotive primer and clear coat as finish, so the sanding doesn’t end when the first coat goes down. The goal is a smooth finish when it’s over. Petrichuk said that when she’s hunting for pieces, she’s looking for solid wood, and pieces with character. While they’re not necessarily in the best of shape when she finds them, they’ve got a solid structure that can be saved. “Sometimes you luck out, sometimes you have to do a lot of fixing, but in the end it’s worth it.” Many of the pieces

repurpose the furniture into something completely different, and Petrichuk said some pieces are easier than others when it comes to making something new. “Usually when I pick up a piece I have a vision right away, but sometimes I don’t. Sometimes you have to search on Pinterest or whatever to get ideas just to get that vision for that piece.” The goal is to make pieces that fit for the entire family. “We try to get all ages.” As a first time exhibitor, Petrichuk said that it has been a great weekend, and the traffic has helped her accomplish her goal, get her name and designs in front of people, and start to get a bit of interest. She doesn’t have a storefront or any-

Politics What sets rural and urban Saskatchewan apart tends to be a re-occurring theme in this province. There are simply differences between urban and rural needs and concerns. We need to recognize this. And one of the bigger ones — one not much talked about — is the different challenges urban and rural teachers face. Of late, what you have most likely been hearing is a lot of squabbling between the Saskatchewan Party government and NDP Opposition over dueling survey results on the needs in the education system. The day students returned to school, NDP education critic Carla Beck demanded Education Minister Gord Wyant release the results of the government’s education survey. At that particularly point, the government had only provided a summary of its own survey that the NDP complained “silenced the voices teachers”. By contrast, the NDP’s own survey conducted last June revealed massive teacher frustration with the current government. “If the responses to the government’s survey look anything like the responses we received to our survey, there’s no wonder the Education Minister wants to bury them,” Beck said in a prepared statement that further noted “40 per cent of teachers have considered leaving the profession.” There is no doubt that Saskatchewan education faces some very big challenges — especially in urban schools facing added pressures of overcrowded classrooms, students who have recently come to Canada and do not yet speak English and general pressures of urban life. For example, the NDP survey suggested some 70 per cent of education assistants surveyed suggested they have witnessed or experienced violence every week or every day — a problem likely more prevalent in urban schools. Interestingly, the government survey seemed to have a different emphasis, claiming that students wanted quality teachers and a quiet living environment, but were relatively unconcerned about classroom size. The disparity can largely be found in the old adage that you get the results you want based on the kind of questions you asked. While the government survey boasts of 9,000 participants neither it nor the Opposition survey can claim any scientific accuracy associated with polling. Both sought out people willing to share their views. In the case of the NDP people, its survey, unsurprisingly, seemed largely frustrated with the education system. In the case of the Sask. Party government, it was people who might have had some concerns but perhaps had less of an axe to grind. Certainly, there was no attempt on the government’s part to drill down into incompatible notions like why students would say they aren’t concerned about class size when those very same students in large classrooms come home each night complaining about teachers not providing enough help or classrooms being too noisy and distracting. And with the NDP’s emphasis on finding disgruntled teachers, its survey also seemed missed the mark. However, the real missed opportunity here might have been the unwillingness to explore the legitimate differences faced by urban and rural teachers. For example, classroom size isn’t generally an issue in rural schools where declining populations have afforded students more one-on-one time with teachers for decades. Of course, the NDP and the Saskatchewan Teachers’ Federation don’t want to talk about this because it is a divisive issue within teachers’ ranks. As a result, the STF would prefer to focus on more agreeable issues like wages or preparation time. And the Sask. Party government certainly doesn’t want to talk much about because it leads to conversations about disparity and perhaps the amount of the education budget allocated to both rural urban schools. These may be uncomfortable conversations, but it would still be helpful to have them. Or at least, they would be more productive than the recent duelling surveys. We need to talk about rural/urban differences if we hope to address them. Murray Mandryk has been covering provincial politics for over 22 years.

◆Editorial◆

Elections are looming, have you noticed? I

t’s surprisingly easy to forget that a federal election is on the horizon. Part of the reason for that is Canadian election rules, of course. Even though we know that an election is coming, and that subtle campaigning happens no matter what, the campaign can’t actually happen until the writ is actually dropped. While we know that we’re going to the polls in October, we don’t actually have an election yet, and so, as a sensible country we aren’t going into campaign mode for no reason. One hopes that people start getting a bit more into it once the writ is actually dropped, whenever that happens to be. That’s a healthy reason, the less healthy reason is our current fascination with politics elsewhere. You are more likely to see people talking about the mess south of the border or the different mess surrounding Brexit across the Atlantic. While both are fascinating, the problem is that they’re stealing a lot of air from our own country. As much fun as it might be to spy on your neighbours, we have things happening in our own house, and the election is looming. This is not going to be an editorial advocating for one candidate or another, of course, that would be inappropriate. The plan is to allow all of the candidates in this election an opportunity to say their piece, after the election is called and all of the

nominees are in place. That’s not currently the case, as two parties at least have not declared their nominees. That’s a problem specific to the Yorkton-Melville riding, that there’s a perception that this is a safe seat. It’s going to stay a safe seat as long as nobody really tries to challenge the incumbent. This is not a comment on the performance of the current MP, but instead an observation that it’s surprisingly easy to ignore the election in a riding where people just assume the same party is going to take it every time. That’s dangerous, and irresponsible. If this riding votes for the same person again, it should be because they believe that person has done a great job over the past four years in their role, not because it’s just the person that always gets the votes. If Yorkton-Melville gets a reputation as a safe seat, it needs to be because our MP is getting a reputation as an excellent one, and they should still have a healthy contingent of challengers willing to take them to task and set their own name forward. With an election forthcoming, it’s now our duty to look at the candidates, their parties, their platforms, and their positions, and vote accordingly. It might not be like watching the train wrecks occurring in the rest of the world, but it’s still important, and whoever finally gets your vote, they need to earn it.

Circa 1970s? Photographer --unknown. Henry & Eleanor Shumay Collection, City of Yorkton Archives. In the 1960s, fear of nuclear attacks from the USSR led to radar base installations at various spots in Canada and the USA. The high white domes of the Radar Squadron Yorkton base could be seen for miles around. Opened in 1963, the station kept watch, scanning skies for hostile aircraft and missiles. A dome held sweeping, longrange radar equipment which turned 360 degrees constantly searching the horizon. A dark room at the base of

the dome used electronic equipment translating the radar echo unto a screen. The base’s role was to detect and identify hostile objects, then transmit the information to bases in North Dakota and Montana. It also could guide into position a fighter aircraft mobilized for a recognizance and defence mission. On August 1, 1986, the Minister of National Defence authorized the disbanding of a number of radar stations, including Yorkton’s.

Paper Bag Players looking for actors

By Devin Wilger Staff Writer The Paper Bag Papers are looking for talent. The local theatre group is holding auditions for its next pair of plays, and whether someone is more comfortable with comedy or drama, they’ve got a play for you. “We’re not looking for specific genders or ages, anyone 18 and up can audition,” said Bailey Lemke with the Paper Bag Players. The first play is called Room #5, described as a strange and absurd piece that will keep the audience guessing. Lemke said that the play has elements of murder, mystery, fear, and excitement, having the audience questioning who is real and who isn’t. Auditions will be Sept. 10 and 12 at 7:00 p.m. at the Grace Presbyterian church. While the dates for the Yorkton performance are yet to be decided, Lemke said that the group will be taking it to the TheatreOne Festival on Nov. 14-16. For more information on that play, contact Teresa Weber at 306-6216437. The second play is much more lighthearted, Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some), a Christmas play that runs through all manner of Christmas stories. “The synopsis of that is the title!” jokes Lemke. This show will go on the road, and the Paper Bag Players will be performing it through December. Auditions are Sept. 16 and 17 at 7:00 p.m., at the Grace Presbyterian Church. For more information or to book the show for an event, contact Pam Milani at (306)620-3833.

Council Meeting Monday, September 30, 2019 at 5:00 p.m. BYLAW FAST FACTS

Please Keep Dogs on Leash When Walking Them…. And Secure Your Dogs at Home!

Did you know? The Animal Control Bylaw No. 5/2018 requires dog owners to have their dog on a leash when the dog is off the owner’s premises, at any location within City limits. This enables the owner to be in immediate, continuous and effective control of the dog. Dog owners must also ensure that their dogs are kept fenced in or tied up in their yards to protect people who walk by their homes. Why? In the interest of public safety, dog owners have a responsibility to have their dogs on a leash when walking them or to have their dogs fenced in or tied up when at home. Residents should be free and comfortable to enjoy the outdoor community, without fear of being approached by a dog that is at large or from an attack by a dog that is at large. There have been a number or incidents reported in 2019 where people have been confronted or frightened by dogs when the individuals/families are merely out for a leisurely walk, or walking to school. Please be respectful and responsible dog owners by keeping dogs on leashes when in public areas and keep dogs fenced in or tied up when they are at home. Thank you for cooperation

World Rivers Day highlights value of water Most people will not be aware, but the 15th annual World Rivers Day is set for Sept. 22. So what is the day all about? Well, “World Rivers Day celebrates the values of rivers, increases awareness, and encourages river stewardship and conservation around the globe – massive worldwide event has its roots in British Columbia, Canada going back to 1980,” stated a recent release regarding the day. Perhaps the use of the word massive oversells the day a tad, at least here in Saskatchewan it doesn’t seem to have a great

deal of traction, which is unfortunate. Anything that raises awareness about the need to better protect our water resources is to my mind critical. And, “with many of the world’s rivers facing increasing pressures associated with climate change, pollution, and industrial development” as the release noted, that awareness is certainly needed in terms of our rivers. The announced theme of this year’s event is “waterways in our communities” with a special emphasis on the need to protect and restore urban waterways which are often

Agriculture THIS WEEK

Calvin Daniels under great pressure. Many events will focus on educational and public awareness activities while others will include river cleanups, habitat restoration projects, and community riverside celebrations. Farmers have increasingly become aware of their potential

impact on local rivers and streams, paying greater attention to protecting riparian areas -the interface between land and a river or stream. The riparian area acts as a natural buffer to protect waterways. Cattle producers are also moving away from

having their stock drink directly from streams and rivers, protecting the waterways with off stream watering. But, farmers are only one part of the equation in terms of protecting water resources in general, and rivers in particular. “World Rivers Day strives to increase public awareness of the importance of our waterways as well as the many threats confronting them,” said Mark Angelo, World Rivers Day Chair and Founder and Chair Emeritus of the Rivers Institute at the British Columbia Institute of Technology

in the release. “Rivers are integral to all life. Yet, many of the world’s waterways continue to face an array of threats and are often impacted by inappropriate practices and inadequate protection,” added Angelo. While there do not seem to be major events around the day locally, it is still an opportunity to think about the importance of our water resource in terms of our lives, growing food, transportation and recreation. With its diverse importance we need to be vigilant in our protection of the resource.

Canola Council welcomes China talks Today’s announcement of the Government of Canada’s formal request for consultations with China under the World Trade Organization (WTO) agreement is welcomed by the canola industry. This formal request is pursuant to the WTO Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) agreement that prescribes the rights and obligations of all WTO members. “We’re disappointed that this action needed to be taken, but it is a necessary step to help determine the legitimacy of China’s trade measures,” says Jim Everson, president of the Canola Council of Canada (CCC). “While we’ve supported continued technical engagement, the scientif-

ic basis for China’s actions remains unclear.” Since market access issues affecting canola seed trade started in early March, Chinese importers remain unwilling to purchase Canadian canola seed from exporters. The licenses of two companies, Richardson and Viterra, to export canola seed to China remain suspended. “China has an obligation to explain the scientific basis for its actions as part of its commitments to World Trade Organization rules,” says Everson. “We need to consider all options to support predictable, rules-based trade, a critical requirement for Canadian agriculture.” The canola industry hopes that this consulta-

tion can resolve the dispute so that further steps toward WTO dispute resolution will not be necessary. Since market access issues began in March 2019, prices for canola have fallen approximately 10% – which translates into $1 billion less from canola for the Canadian economy on an annual basis. “Today’s actions are an important step to regain access to China, but they’re not enough,” says Everson. “We need concrete action to diversify at home and abroad so that canola can continue supporting Canadian prosperity.” The CCC continues its efforts to focus attention in Ottawa on resolving

this issue as soon as possible. This includes cochairing the Government of Canada working group on canola. The CCC believes more action is necessary to diversify canola markets, including enhancing market access in Asia and diversifying markets in Canada by increasing the amount of canola used in biofuel. Using more canola and vegetable oil in Canada for biofuel represents an important diversification opportunity, one that is entirely within the control of Canadian governments. Going from the current 2% renewable content in diesel to 5% would be a market for 1.3 million tonnes of canola, while at the same time helping Canada significantly reduce green-

house gas emissions. “Increasing renewable content in fuels is a win-win,” says Everson. “Canada reduces emissions and the canola sector diversifies its markets with stable homegrown demand. We know that there needs to be government action to reduce emissions, and the canola sector can be a partner to meet Canada’s goals while taking control of unprecedented trade uncertainty that is well beyond industry’s control.” Supporting producers is also top of mind for the working group and efforts are underway to monitor market conditions closely, so that if action is needed in the future it is timely and effective.

China has been a major market for Canadian canola, accounting for approximately 40% of all canola seed, oil and meal exports. Canola seed exports to China were worth $2.7 billion in 2018. Demand has been very strong until recent disruptions. The Canola Council of Canada is a full value chain organization representing canola growers, processors, life science companies and exporters. Keep it Coming 2025 is the strategic plan to ensure the canola industry’s continued growth, demand, stability and success – achieving 52 bushels per acre to meet global market demand of 26 million metric tonnes by the year 2025.

Crop Report: Harvest moving slowly Eleven per cent of the crop is now in the bin, up from six per cent last week and remains well behind the five-year (2014-2018) average of 28 per cent for this time of year. Frequent rainfall and cool weather continues to delay harvest progress for many producers in the province, according to Saskatchewan Agriculture’s Weekly Crop Report. Sixteen per cent of the crop is now swathed or ready to straight-cut. A good stretch of warm and dry weather would be welcomed to allow for producers to return to the field. Harvest is most advanced in the southwest region, where 20 per cent of the crop is now combined. The southeast region has 16 per cent combined, the west-central region seven per cent and the northwest six per cent. The northeast region has four per cent

combined while the eastcentral region has three per cent combined. Seventy-five per cent of fall rye, 64 per cent of winter wheat, 47 per cent of field peas, 39 per cent of lentils, 12 per cent of barley, five per cent of durum, four per cent of spring wheat and one per cent of canola is now in the bin. An additional 19 per cent of canola is swathed or is ready to straight-cut. The majority of the province received rainfall last week, ranging from trace amounts to 45 mm in the Lampman area. Across the province, topsoil moisture conditions on cropland are rated as eight per cent surplus, 81 per cent adequate, 10 per cent short and one per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as two per cent surplus, 78 per cent adequate, 15

per cent short and five per cent very short. Most crop damage this week was due to local-

ized flooding, strong winds, light frost and hail. There have been some reports of crops

bleaching and sprouting in areas with excess moisture. Farmers are busy

swathing, combining and cutting and baling greenfeed.

New pathotype of clubroot found in Manitoba Manitoba Agriculture is reporting a new strain of clubroot of canola (Plasmodiophora brassicae), having been positively identified in the Rural Municipality of Pembina. Clubroot is a disease of canola and other brassica species that inhibits the function of plant

roots to take up water and nutrients from the soil. Infected plants suffer premature ripening, significantly reduced yield an d/or early plant death under moderate to severe levels of infestation. Clubroot is a soil borne disease, and can be transferred from field

to field on soil particles. Soil movement can be on footwear, vehicle tires, farm machinery, custom equipment, or via wind or water movement across a landscape. The new strain of clubroot is identified as pathotype 3A, using the combined designation of the Canadian Clubroot

Differential Set (2018) and the Williams set (1966). Pathotype 3A is able to overcome some first - generation sources of genetic resistance in commercial canola cultivars. Traditionally rated “resistant” or “R” canola varieties will not be effective in preventing clubroot infection against

this pathotype strain. Traditionally R - rated varieties are tested against pathotypes 2, 3, 5, 6, and 8 of the Williams set, and not labelled as effective against breaking - resistance pathotypes of 3A and 5X. Genetic resistance to pathotype 3A can be found in a small number

of commercially - available canola varieties specifically labelled for resistance to 3A. Long term sustainability of canola production requires effective crop rotation and rotation of sources of genetic resistance, together with good farm biosecurity to suppress clubroot infection.

Artist shoots for the moon at Godfrey Dean By Devin Wilger Staff Writer What do you see when you look at the moon? What do you see when you look at yourself? Louisa Ferguson’s The Apparent Magnitude of Every Day explores both questions, with 365 glass tiles, each featuring the moon for a single day, and an excerpt from her journal from the same time. Ferguson’s work is now on display at the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery, until Oct. 26. Ferguson’s fascination with the moon began when the artist moved to Meacham, SK. from Montreal, PQ. She said she became very aware of the moon for the first time. “You can live in a quiet community and that quiet and stillness allows you to really go into detail and see things. It’s basically a meditation on very specific moments of every single day, following the moon cycle.” The show depends on the observer, and where they are, whether they’re looking at the moons or Ferguson’s journal entries. That plays into the title of the work. “Apparent magnitude, which has to do with how bright the moon is, really depends on what’s between the observer and the moon. If I’m in Meacham looking at the moon, the apparent brightness is going to be very different from if you are in Saskatoon looking

at the moon... That’s a personal journey, and I approached every single day that way as well, from my vantage point what is that day about?” She said that the interpretation of each tile is going to be different for each viewer, and she wants it to be a conversation. “It’s a dialog, it’s a conversation and I’m okay with that.” It’s a show that rewards time, and she hopes that means there will be repeated visits, and that people interpret the work differently every time they see it. She compares it to a German poet who she loved at one point, and then moved away from, because art means different things depending on the person. Ferguson admits that there were days when she didn’t want to go into her studio and make another tile, but it gave her a reason to force herself to do it, and keep in practice. She also said that feeling of reluctance tended to dissipate after ten minutes and she was good to start again. She’s also happy that her show opened the same day as Autumn Light, which features nine area artists showcasing their work. “People will say ‘it’s good for them to see a professional artist’ but it’s also good for me to see a local artist and what they’re doing, because that informs me as an artist as well.”

Louisa Ferguson talks about her work at the opening of The Apparent Magnitude of Every Day, at the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery. The show runs until Oct. 26

Some of the local art on display at the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery in the Autumn Light show, featuring nine local artists.

Autumn Light a new idea for Godfrey Dean By Devin Wilger Staff Writer More than an art show, Autumn Light is a new idea for the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery. The show features nine local artists – Jeann Spilak (Yorkton), Sonja Pawliw (Yorkton), Garry Harris (Yorkton), Katie Miller (Esterhazy), Linda Henye (Melville), Barry Whitta (Yorkton), Kelly Patterson (Yorkton), Theresa

Franks (Melville) and Hanna Farquharson (Saltcoats) – and will run until Dec. 15, showcasing them at the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery and offering their work for sale. Don Stein, executive director at the Godfrey Dean, said that it’s a chance to meet local artists, and it’s an extension of the annual Landscape and Memory show every May. “It’s such a great event

with all the local artists, but it only stays up for a month. That was the first impetus, just to keep local representation in the galleries.” The other goal was to have a place where local artists could be showcased. “There’s nowhere anywhere now where you can find and buy local art. There used to be a gallery in Esterhazy but

it stopped operating recently, so now it’s partially a service to the artists, there is a place where they can exhibit their work, and to the public, if you are looking for local art we can start to be a place for that.” The project is a pilot, but the plan is to keep it going, with the next one being ‘Winter Light’ in December. The goal is to fill the gallery with amazing work, but also have it

stay a while and promote it for people to come and see. As a gallery director, Stein noted that it also gives him flexibility. “I can change it more slowly, I can change one artist at a time... So you don’t have to wholesale empty the gallery and put a new show in every time, and it gives people more of an opportunity to connect with it.” The large gallery will

continue to be rotated out on a regular basis, so there will always be something new to see. If you have work, Stein would love to meet you. He’s going through artists that have shown at Landscape and Memory before, and has a lineup in mind for the next one, but also wants to see what’s next. “Who are those other interesting people who can see themselves in this? We can show pottery, we can show fine jewelry, we can show a variety of works. It’s especially appealing to people who don’t have enough work to do a whole solo show, but here’s a chance, if you have five or six works, to really feature them in a way that gives you a showcase.”

Time to dry herbs Now is the time to dry herbs for the winter. We were doing some herbs from our Simon and Garfunkel garden, so make a cup of tea and sit with me for a few minutes, and let’s review the best way to dry herbs. My favorite herb is sage: not only do I love the flavor, but I love the mysterious aroma that reminds me of incense. It’s like the incense of the kitchen, isn’t it! How to dry sage? First we have to wash the leaves and pat them dry between paper towels or a tea towel. You can decide if you want to leave them on the stems, or separate them. If you leave them on the stems, you can tie a string or elastic band around the bottom of the stems, and hang them in a spot with good air circulation. They will take a while to dry, it doesn’t happen overnight. Once they are dry and brittle, you can put them in an airtight jar and store in a dark cupboard for future yummy cooking projects. I’ve read about hanging them in a paper bag, but we’ve always just hung them up, as is, and it works fine. If you take the leaves off the stem, you can lay them flat on a tray with paper towel under them, and just let them air dry. Turn them every couple days, and when completely dry, transfer them to an airtight container. Our rosemary plant is looking so lovely; I wish we could keep it over in the garden. Years ago when we went to the Sonoma Valley, we saw rosemary bushes, that’s the only word for them. They were as large and lush as a shrub, and so fragrant! Of course the climate there is perfect for them to grow year round. But here, even with good winter protection, chances are that the rosemary would not survive. So, we’ll dry it as the next best thing! Beautiful flavorful rosemary can be dried the same way as our sage stems: wash the stems, pat them dry, and then hang them. But keep an eye on them, because once they are fully dry, the needlelike leaves can fall off easily, just like Charlie Brown’s little Christmas

DEBBIE HAYWARD YORKTON AND DISTRICT HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY

Gardener’s Notebook tree! So we want to have them in a jar by then! We’ve never tried this, but I have read about two more ways to deal with rosemary. If we are planning to be our kitchens for a full afternoon, we can dry rosemary stems in a very, very slow oven, about 175 degrees for 1 ½ to two hours. I would think that we would have to be very diligent about checking them and turning them so they don’t burn! I have read that we can also freeze the washed rosemary stems: we just put them in a plastic bag, press out all the air, and put them in our freezers. Drying parsley takes me back to Mom’s kitchen; she was such an amazing cook, and always dried a lot of parsley. Parsley can be air dried on a cookie sheet, dried in a very slow oven, hung up to dry, and you can even do it in the microwave! Spread the washed, patted-dry

parsley in a single layer on a plate covered with a paper towel then put it in the microwave and go minute by minute! It is amazing how quickly it can burn, so keep a watchful eye on it!

Another autumn, another glimpse of grace

Wednesday, September 11, 2019 | www.YorktonThisWeek.com | Yorkton This Week

Backpack-wearing students once again stroll the streets to their bus stops or classrooms. School buses roll the highways. Once more I walk alongside golden fields and amongst trees blushing red and gold; friend, grandchild or dog keeping pace. I love nearly everything about September. Always have. It tickles the senses. I thought about that a few days ago as the Preacher and I worked in our yard. He weedwhacked hedges and neat edges around bushes and rocks. I pruned our lilacs, remembering their sweet fragrance a few short blinks ago; ruing each severe cut at first, but knowing the necessity. “To prune lilacs,” gardening experts say, “cut them back by up to a third shortly after they’re done blooming, when they set their blossoms for the next year.” Oops. “Never let Kathleen loose with a pruner or chain saw,” the

Preacher has said often. As a result of attempting to even things up, our twelve foot pink beauty now stands around four feet, a good two thirds less. Only a sorrowful cluster of erect bare limbs remains. But I’ve slaughtered that bush before. It forgave me and came back beautifully, though it didn’t bloom again for several years. Who doesn’t love autumn? Sampling the gifts of gardens and fields. Sniffing the fragrance of fallen crabapples. Meandering through a corn maze. Feeling calluses build during the binding up of summer’s looseness; the putting a place to rest for a season. Harvesting. Raking. Covering. Mulching. Tightening, straightening and pruning. I’ll soon retrieve our fall decorations from their hiding places in basement boxes and bins, anticipating the upcoming Thanksgiving gathering. Our large family (when they all

adian prairie. Winter could be on us within a matter of weeks.

Everyone knows that, a knowing softened by the hint of Christmas in the air, the promise of a time devoted to generously, purposefully giving back to God. To loved ones. To our desperately needy world. The earth will burn one day, the Bible says. Jesus will return and justice will finally reign. But today, like the leaves, I fall softly into fall. Tumble into the lap of

grace, grateful for God’s shifting seasons that have always come and always gone. Grateful for the lingering opportunity to share love and truth with those around me, leaning on God’s Word and this promise Genesis 8 verse 22, “As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease.”

Close Cuts for Cancer wraps for 2019 By Cory Carlick Staff Writer Close Cuts for Cancer wrapped up its 2019 year with a donation of $17 664 made by Yorkton Hyundai. The dealership collected the monies by contributing $100 from the sale of vehicles made throughout the campaign. A number of fundraisers were also held at or by Yorkton Hyundai for the cause. The monies were then collected and presented to Greg and Leone Ottenbreit by Ron Kaban the owner of the local Hyundai dealership. “The money will be used to help purchase new digital mammography equipment,” said Yorkton MLA Greg Ottenbreit. Close Cuts for Cancer has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars over the years for hospital equipment upgrades.

The right place to raise a football player At a recent family gathering, my brother told my nephew that no matter what their eventual child is, they are getting a football for their first gift. This has long been a tradition, a way for my brother to cement his status as the ‘most influential person’ in the lives of his nieces and nephews – and, in this case, a grand niece or nephew – and he’s going to push them to be a fan of football at a minimum, a player of football ideally. It’s lucky for him that this kid is going to be born in Yorkton. It’s difficult to imagine a community better suited to raising a football fan in Canada. The Yorkton Minor Football program, for both young men and young women, is a solid one, and the coaching staff knows what they’re doing. You can see it in the game results, you can see it in the players themselves – the list of players that have gone on to play at a higher level, read out at the recent Friday Night Lights game, is a long one – and you can see it in the stands, where people are excited to see these kids play. If this kid wants to play football, they are going have plenty of opportunity, not just to play, but to get extremely good. In some ways, Yorkton might actually be a bit too good. They can get away with mistakes that other teams can’t, because they’re otherwise a pretty dominant squad. That could easily lead the team into bad habits that they have to break suddenly in a playoff situation. The sheer number of penalty flags that flew during Friday Night Lights can’t keep

happening, because there will eventually be a team that capitalizes on those mistakes. But that’s something the coaching staff knows, and hopefully they can get the message through to the kids. On the other side of the coin, the team actually is good enough to be able to afford mistakes, and it’s not like there’s any reason why the teams

DEVIN WILGER

Thinking I do with words...

they play against are outmatched based on pure numbers. The teams are

from communities that are roughly the same size, in theory they should

be able to compete. The difference here is naturally going to be in the people who run the program, and they’re doing an amazing job building football players. You can’t get that good on your own, you need the right people to help. Which, of course, bodes well for the football career of this kid who hasn’t even been born yet, and for my

brother’s hopes of getting a football player in the family. Then again, we haven’t met this kid yet, it could want to do something wildly different with their life than even the most insistent uncle could demand. But as it stands now, if this kid does want to make football a big part of their life, they’re being born in the right place.

Lady Gridders season starts with wins By Devin Wilger Staff Writer The Lady Gridders are starting off their season with a smash. The Yorkton women’s football team has won both of their initial two games. Their most recent contest was against the Moosomin Generals. While coach Tyrell MacLean said that the game had a slow start, once they got moving they couldn’t be stopped. The final score was 34-8 for the Lady Gridders. “In the second half our defense really took it to them, started to put on the pressure, get the turnovers and score some points.” The strong defense is something that MacLean sees as being a signature of the Yorkton Minor Football programs. “We are trying to emu-

late what the bantams are doing and not give up anything.” The first game, against the Melville Lady Vipers on Sept. 4 was similarly lopsided, with a 52-24 win for the Lady Gridders. “Our offense there was just unreal. We had six different girls score touchdowns in that game, and the only girl that scored two touchdowns, scored one on special teams. Our offense was able to spread it around and we were able to really capitalize there.” The team’s success is due to having a lot of talent, and MacLean is proud of the results. “We like to work hard, we practice hard, and that’s the results we get.” The next action for the Lady Gridders is on Sept. 14 at 2:00 p.m. against Regina at Century Field.

Yorkton’s Lady Gridders took on the Moosomin Generals at Century Field, walking away with a 34-8 win.

Procyshen wins revived Blue Owl tourney By Devin Wilger Staff Writer The Blue Owl is back. The men’s golf tournament at Deer Park Golf Course had not been played since 1993, and there has not been a men’s open at Deer Park for five years. The decision was made to try to bring men’s golf back and build a new tournament, based on the old tournament. The revived Blue Owl was strong, with 98 golfers taking part in the three day event. The winner was local golfer Matt Procyshen, who took the top prize with a five under par. Procyshen was thrilled to be able to hold the massive Blue Owl trophy. Speechless at his own win, Procyshen was just as excited to see a new men’s open at Deer Park as he was to have won it. “At the end of the day, we haven’t had a men’s open

here in a number of years, and I know the history with the Blue Owl, back in the day it was a very well regarded tournament in the area... There’s definitely some history there before, I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out.” Procyshen compliments the organizing committee on their successful tournament, saying it was a first class event. All funds raised from the tournament will go to the new green on Hole 7. The full results are as follows: Champ flite: 1st – Matt Procyshen 2nd – Derek Stykalo 3rd – Greg Swenson 4th – Paul Keys 1st flite: 1st – Dustin Sas 2nd – Stephen Oleskiw 3rd – Cliff Trombley 4th – Doug Hildebrandt 2nd flite: 1st – Shawn Macquarie

Dragon boats hit the water at York Lake By Devin Wilger Staff Writer It was The Amazing Dragon Boat Race at the Yorkton Canoe and Kayak Club, with racers

taking part in different challenges to get an introduction to dragon boat racing, meet new people and have some fun. Jessica Riley, coach at YCKC, said that they

changed the format a bit because many of the paddlers were new to dragon boats, and they had not raced together before. “Throughout the morning, they’re going to learn a little bit about the dragon boat, but they will

have clues that will teach them about the stroke, a little bit about the history of dragon boat and working together as a team, because they’ve never paddled together before.” Getting new people

into boats is one of their goals. Dragon boats are still new to the area, said Riley, and to build the sport they are going to need more people trying it out, getting comfortable in the boat, and seeing that it’s something they can do. “Yorkton is still very much word of mouth. So getting them out and knowing that it’s safe, they feel good. A lot of people worry about injury, can their bodies physically handle this? The more we get people into the boat and learning about it, and realizing it’s a sport you can do until you’re very, very old, and it’s a cool culture that’s popular in Saskatoon and Regina.” The real strength of dragon boat, and one of the reasons that Riley wants to grow it in the

area, is that it’s a lifelong sport. “I think that’s important, especially in our community, as adults struggle to stay active and to have fun.” Overall, the YCKC has had a good year, with strong performances by its members in the racing program. One highlight was Raya Cuthill, who medaled at the Western Canada Summer Games and was able to qualify for Nationals. Riley was also the coach of the Saskatchewan team. Younger kids also did well in competitions, with many setting personal bests. Riley said that as a coach, seeing kids improve and meet their goals is something she likes to see. “I’m thrilled as a coach.”

The season of the backups in the CFL With Labour Day now well in the rear view mirror the Canadian Football League heads into the homestretch of another season. Like most seasons on all sports, there have been ups and downs with the CFL in 2019. To start with only one of the nine anticipated starting quarterbacks across the league has not gone to the sidelines hurt, the exception being B.C. Lion Mike Reilly. The irony in this of course is the fact that Reilly has been sacked more than any other QB in the league. The Lions offensive line is more porous than Swiss cheese leaving Reilly looking at times like the mole in a game of whack-a-mole. What is surprising, other than Reilly is still in there chucking every week, is that there truly

has been a silver lining to all the quarterback injuries this season. While no one want to see the likes of Bo Levi Mitchell and Jeremiah Masoli out hurt, the Hamilton pivot gone for the season, it has opened the door for a bevy of back-ups to get extended playing time, and for the most part the results have exceeded expectations. Nowhere is the backup shining brighter than in Saskatchewan where Cody Fajardo, his and the team’s most recent effort in the Banjo Bowl notwithstanding, has become a bonafide bluechipper. Not that is was a very high bar, but Fajardo has exceeded anything I had expected from the oftinjured, and now traded, Zack Collaros. Fajardo was a player

CALVIN DANIELS

Sports that really came out of nowhere, having hung around the Lions behind a star when healthy in Travis Lulay, and highly touted, but underachieving Jonathon Jennings. As a result there was rarely a chance for Fajardo to touch more than a clipboard. Credit the Saskatchewan brass for seeing something in the pivot worth taking a chance on, because after 11 games, he is the number four rated QB in the league with 2608 passing

yards. Not surprising, Trevor Harris tops the list after 12 games, with 3706 yards, although he missed most of the Eskimos most recent tilt against Calgary with an apparent hand injury. Reilly is still third with 2667 yards. Sandwiched at number two is McLeod Bethel-Thompson. While the Toronto Argonauts rarely hold leads to get wins, it’s not because of their quarterback.

Bethel-Thompson has thrown for 3004 yards, and has gotten better as the season wears on. I never thought he had it in him to be a quality starter, but he’s proving that he does. I can write just about the same thing about Vernon Adams in Montreal. I thought the former Oregon Duck was going to be another big school flop in the CFL, but suddenly he is managing an Alouette offence that has looked very good, making Montreal my dark horse come playoff time. Nick Arbuckle showed enough in relief of the injured Mitchell in Calgary to think he will one day be a starter in the CFL, and Dane Evans while lacking consistency has been solid as the now starter in Hamilton. Of course there are a

A15

couple of bumps on the back-up road too, as might be expected when so many have been thrust into the spotlight. Chris Streveler, who I had expected big things from based on a couple of appearances last year, doesn’t look like he can throw well enough to be a starter in the CFL, at least as a quarterback. With his size he might be a great tight end. Dominique Davis hasn’t shown a lot in Ottawa either. The Redblacks are not a very good team, so you can’t expect quarterbacks to be brilliant, but 14 interceptions versus five touchdown tosses don’t cut it. Still, a lot of positives for the CFL in terms of emerging talent at quarterback in a league where passing rules.

BALDWIN - Brent. It is with profound sadness that the family shares the heartbreaking news of the sudden passing of Brent; beloved husband, father, grandfather and friend, on September 3, 2019 at the young age of 70. He is survived by the love of his life of 40 years, Rhonda; daughters Kelly (Les) and Lana (Matt); son Cory; cherished grandchildren Ella and Olivia; and brothers Scott (Renee) and Dale (Sandy). Brent is predeceased by his parents Jay and Gurney. Brent lived a long and meaningful life touching many people along his journey. Brent was born in Antler, SK and raised in Yorkton, SK. He met Rhonda in Edmonton, AB where they had three amazing children that were the center of his world. They moved to Kelowna, BC to raise their family where Brent had a very successful career of 25 years with Freedom 55 Financial. Brent’s first love was spending time with his family and friends with golf following as a very close second. Brent will be deeply missed, never forgotten and always remembered for his quick wit. Brent will be remembered by all who knew him for his zest for life, living life to its fullest and never being afraid to take on a challenge, big or small. Please join Brent’s family in the celebration of his life on Thursday, September 12, 2019 at 10:30 am at St. Charles Garnier Parish, 3645 Benvoulin Rd, Kelowna, BC, followed by a reception at the Kelowna Golf & Country Club, 1297 Glenmore Dr, Kelowna, BC. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to The Heart & Stroke Foundation, www.heartandstroke.ca. Condolences may be sent to the family by visiting www.springfieldfuneralhome.com. KEYOWSKI - Norman August. Norman August Keyowski passed away at the Theodore Health Centre on August 31, 2019 with his family by his side. He was 82 years of age. Norman was born on August 3, 1937 on the family farm in the Jedburgh district, the son of Peter and Marie (Biletsky) Keyowski. Norman received his education at Jedburgh School and went on to study motor vehicle mechanics in Moose Jaw. He worked at Oschienny’s Garage in Jedburgh while farming with his father. In 1962 he married the love of his life, Ethel Hoy, from the Fitzmaurice district. A year later Ethel and Norman purchased Ethel’s parents farm and started their life together farming and raising two sons. They farmed until 2003 when they sold the cattle and Norman went into semi-retirement. They continued to live on the farm until 2009 when they moved to Springside. Due to failing health Norman was forced to move into the Theodore Health Centre in 2011 and continued to reside until his passing. Norman enjoyed many things during his life. He participated in sports including hockey with the Jedburgh Eagles, baseball, curling and golf. Hunting and fishing were his specialties and loved to do these with his friends and family. He was a regular at the old Jedburgh Curling Rink. Later in life he got his satellite dish and spent the cold winter months watching and analyzing any and all curling events he could find. When there was no curling on, he loved a good game of rummy or crib. He also played a mean accordion and loved his jam sessions with brother-in-law Leonard at the Pete Keyowski farm. And on his last days there, enjoyed a final dance with Ethel in his Broda chair. Norman served on the Fitzmaurice Snow Plow Club, the Jedburgh Curling Club and the Westbrook-Gladwin Rural Telephone Company where he often would load up his kids and a chainsaw in the truck and go searching for downed telephone lines after a storm. He also worked for T&H Trucking for several years and mowed roads with the RM of Garry. Norman was predeceased by his parents, Peter and Marie, his mother and father-in-law, George and Edna Hoy and brother-in-law Roman Rushinko. Norman leaves to celebrate his memory, his wife of 57 years, Ethel, two sons, Terry and Ken, sister Emelie (Leonard) Forster, brother Larry (Janice), sister Deb (Jack), sister-in-law Alice (Hoy) Rushinko and numerous nieces and nephews. A memorial service for Norman was held from the chapel of Christie’s Funeral Home and Crematorium, Yorkton, SK on Friday, September 6, 2019 with Rev Catherine Pace officiating. Interment followed in Yorkton Memorial Gardens, Yorkton, SK. Memorial donations in memory of Norman may be made to the activity department at the Theodore Health Centre or to a charity of your choice as gifts of remembrance.

BILAN - It is with profound sadness that we announce that our husband, brother, father, grandfather, uncle, James Bilan, has left us to be with the Lord on Thursday, August 29, 2019 at the age of 89. Jim was born on April 12, 1930 to Matthew and Anne Bilan on the family farm southwest of Buchanan, SK. The 2nd of four children, he received his education at Woodhurst School and later at the Buchanan High School. Upon leaving high school he and a buddy hopped a boxcar to Winnipeg in search of work. He successfully landed a job with Canada Packers but he knew bigger things were in store for him back home. After a brief stint with SaskTel he landed his dream job with SaskPower in 1955. He began his training as a lineman and, after working all over the province, received his journeyman status and then became District Operator at Yorkton. While working in Wynyard he met the love of his life, Elsie Zemlak, who was working as a waitress at a service station called The Grill. It took him 3 years but he finally proposed and they were wed on June 15, 1959 in Foam Lake, SK. They made Canora their first home and in 1962 moved to Yorkton. Together they raised a family of four children. One of his favourite pastimes was hunting. This started at an early age while walking home from school, he would pick off partridge with a slingshot and bring home dinner. That passion grew into many trips up north with relatives and friends and most often brought home something he could make into sausage. He was an avid sportsman and his hobbies included camping, fishing, golfing, curling, bowling and bingo. He was a master at cards and an avid Leafs, Jays and Roughrider fan until the very end. On July 31, 1990, after 35 years, Jim decided to start a new chapter and retire from SaskPower. For the next 30 years some of his best memories were his work days as he fondly recalled a career that brought him so much pride and fulfillment. Jim was a jack-of-all trades and could fix anything. He was always there to lend a hand and be a good neighbour and host. Jim gave his time volunteering at the church hall serving at weddings and functions. He had an impeccable work ethic and was a devoted family man. His pride and joy were his children and grandchildren. He enjoyed giving tractor rides and attending hockey games and all their activities when he could. His incredible wit, sense of humour and smart-ass comments will forever be his legacy. A friend to all, Jim will be dearly missed by all who knew him. We all imagine him meeting up with his loved ones that have passed and looking around at all that is heaven and exclaiming “This has got to be something, this is just super!”. James was predeceased by his father Matthew, mother Anne, brother George (Florence), sister Wilma (Dan), sister-in-law Flo and niece Shelley. Left to cherish his memory is his wife Elsie, children Karla (Bruce Thompson), Laurie (Kevin Stefanick), Kevin (Denise), Darci; grandchildren Tanner, Kelsey, Caitlyn, Madison, Brady and Haylee; brother Howard and numerous nieces and nephews extended family and friends. Friends so wishing may make donations in lieu of flowers to the Holy Transfiguration Orthodox Church or to the Heart & Stroke Foundation. The family wishes to express sincere appreciation for your thoughts, compassion and presence at the service. Special thanks for all those who took time from their day to be with the family; those who helped and brought food and those who visited and shared great stories about dad. We also wish to recognize the wonderful care dad received at the Yorkton nursing home for the short stay there. We will forever be grateful. Vichnaya Pamyat! Rest in Peace. Prayers were held on Thursday, September 5, 2019 and the funeral service on Friday, September 6, 2019, all from Holy Transfiguration Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Yorkton. Rev. Fr. Michael Faryna and Rev. Fr. Mel Slashinsky officiated. Cantor, Yvonne Panchuk, assisted by members of the Parish Choir sang the responses. The Cross bearer was Garry Gawryliuk, the Banner bearers were Curtis and Trevor Bilan. Honourary bearers were George Stanicki, Art Loucks, Ed Tchorzewski and Ken McGillivary. The interment took place in the Yorkton Memorial Gardens with Robert and Tanner Thompson, Kevin and Brady Stefanick and Kelly and Jared Bilan serving as the casket bearers. Sincere thank you to the staff at the Langenburg and Skinner Unit of Yorkton Nursing Home for their care. Also a thank you to Dean and staff of the Bailey’s Funeral Home for compassionate professional help in many ways. We are forever grateful. Condolences to the family can be left at www.baileysfuneralhome.com.

HARASYMUK - William (Bill) Harasymuk, affectionately known by his Grandsons as “Grandpa in Town”, with his loving family at his side, entered eternal life on Thursday, August 15, 2019. He will be ever remembered and cherished by his loving wife of 57 years Violet, his son Matt and daughter-inlaw Tracey Harasymuk, grandsons Brett Harasymuk (Taylor Leslie) and Tyler Harasymuk, brother Allan Harasymuk (Beverly), sisters Anne Dratwa and Irene Harasymuk as well as many nephews, nieces and friends. William was predeceased by his parents Nick and Katie (Wuscheny) Harasymuk, brothers John and Steve and infant sisters Marie, Helene and Elizabeth. William was born on June 12, 1936 in the Hubbard, Sask. District and later with his family moved to a farm 1 mile from Fenwood, SK. He married the love of his life, Violet, in 1962 and together they lived and worked in Winnipeg, MB before becoming business owners in the Hotel and Motel industry in Togo and Grenfell, SK and then settling in Yorkton where William started a contracting business M & W Painting until his retirement. He often enjoyed a good game of cards with family and friends but his passion for fishing was relentless and William loved the opportunity to get out to Good Spirit, Madge or the Fort Qu’Appelle lakes, any reason to “Dip the Hook” as he would say. Family and faith were the most important things to him and he will always be remembered as someone who gave to his family and friends any way that he could. He was a devoted member of St. Mary’s Ukrainian Catholic Church for over 30 years as well as the Ukrainian Catholic Brotherhood. Through his later years William battled many health issues but known by his family as a true warrior he never gave up and did everything in his power to beat any challenge he had to continue to be with the people he loved. We, his family, while sad and heartbroken, will continue on as he would have wanted with the faith and strength that was truly William and we are going to miss him very much. A Funeral Divine Liturgy was held on Friday, August 23, 2019 from St. Mary’s Ukrainian Catholic Church with Fr. Leonid Malkov CSSR officiating. Interment followed in Yorkton Memorial Gardens, Yorkton, SK. Friends so wishing may make memorial donations in memory of William to The Ukrainian Catholic Brotherhood.

God has taken you away from us and taken you to rest It’s not for us to understand. He only takes the best.

Forever loved Ken & Diane

August 18, 1933 September 16, 2018

We had a wonderful mother, One who never really grew old; Her smile was made of sunshine, And her heart was solid gold; Her eyes were as bright as shining stars, And in her cheeks fair roses you see. We had a wonderful mother, And that's the way it will always be. But take heed, because She's still keeping an eye on all of us, So let's make sure She will like what she sees. Loved and missed dearly now and always Karen, Tim and family
