Local cell coverage to improve – more towers to go up By SHANNON DEVEAU N-R Writer In spite of a recommendation by the city’s Director of Planning and Engineering that more consideration be given before opting to go ahead, Yorkton City council members voted in favor of adding more cellular towers to improve service in this area. Doug Grant, the province’s wireless manager, was in Yorkton Monday to present to council a plan that will increase both coverage and data capability in the city, something that will have a growing need as more people go wireless and depend on coverage. Grant says currently 10 per cent of households are wireless only and the trend is on the rise. Fifty per cent of all 911 calls are made from cellular phones and the use of wireless data is also on a steady incline with people depending on their phones for internet and online related uses. SaskTel’s challenge he says, is that the only way it can up local usage capability is by adding additional towers. “There is a finite amount of Spectrum that SaskTel is licensed to use. Once we have used all of the Spectrum in a tower’s area, we must build more towers to accommodate the demand for service.” Data speeds are also directly related to demand, the number of phones and signal strength in a given area. When SaskTel first introduced cellular technology in 1989, coverage was more aimed at outdoor and automobile coverage but times have changed says Grant. “Today, 80 per cent or more of cellular usage is inside buildings. Building structures attenuate the signals that reach wireless devices. Different building types cause varying signal losses... making it difficult to serve.” More towers mean more strength and better service. Currently, there are six towers in Yorkton. Four more will now be added, greatly increasing the level of service adds Grant. Continued on Page 7.
Road safety goal The government of Saskatchewan has announced it is partnering with Virginia Tech, the University of Saskatchewan and Canadian transportation ministries to host a major highway safety research project. Volunteers to take part in the initiative are being sought. The study involves outfitting volunteers’ vehicles with cameras and sensors that will col-
lect safety data over the next two years. Virginia Tech Transportation Institute has been contracted to conduct the study. Examples of data uses include looking at how drivers are able to navigate curves, what behaviours they exhibit at intersections, typical highway speeds they travel and whether roadside signage is understood.

Sunflower power – metal artist shines
By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer
Every year, the Sunflower Fine Art Craft Market features a wide variety of unique creations from people across the prairie provinces. This year was no exception, filling the Gallagher Centre with a wide range of booths. One of those booths belonged to Michael Bayly with Bayly Art. The local artist makes custom metalwork, and had several examples of his craft on display to show the range of his abilities. “I do custom metalwork for anybody and make anything... If it’s metal, I will make it,” Bayly says. The start of his love of metalwork began in high school with the first welding class he attended, and he says as soon as he got his hands on a piece of metal he began to change it and see what
he could turn it into. Bayly’s goal with his furniture is to create pieces that can become a permanent part of the home, pieces which will survive for generations. “I realized how hard it is to buy real furniture. Everything nowadays is some version of particleboard or something you’re buying that somebody learned to make the cheapest way possible. It has its place, but I try to go the opposite direction. All of my wood is solid and from a tree and I try to get everything Canadian and local as possible,” he says. “Everything I make will probably outlast all of us. It’s all very heavy, and when you start to incorporate the pieces of wood that I do, they are going to age as well. They’re going to be pieces that you’re going to have for the next 20 or 30 years, they will be around to tell the stories you have.”
Bayly emphasizes that he’s open to all different styles, though his personal style is described as “modern gothic.” The majority of his work is custom, and he says that it’s good to be open to different styles in order to adapt to what customers like. One of the showcase pieces was a metal table with solid wood, and he says that the wood softens the hard lines of the metal and also shows how he can incorporate different materials. “You have to be able to diversify if you want to appeal to anybody.” This year was Bayly’s second year at Sunflower, and he says that last year he got a good amount of attention, so he hopes that this year has a similar positive result. Those interested in learning more about Bayly’s work or getting a piece of their own can call 306-641-6191 or visit baylyart.com.

Saskatchewan road safety study Con’t from Page 1. “This is a significant opportunity for Saskatchewan to assist transportation engineers across North America in building safer highways for all motorists,” Highways and Infrastructure Minister Don McMorris says. “Collecting driving data in Saskatchewan provides a unique opportunity to not only better understand drivers in Canada but also to compare drivers across North America and hopefully, worldwide.”
SGI is assisting Virginia Tech and the University of Saskatchewan with the volunteer recruitment process by sending letters to Saskatchewan drivers inviting them to participate in the study. Participation is strictly voluntary and rigorous protocols are in place to safeguard privacy. While the provincial government is assisting researchers in recruiting participants, no government agency will have access to any personal information, including the names of volunteers.

Applauding those behind Harvest for Hunger We North Americans surround ourselves with food. We have the blessing of access at any moment. But around the world, 870 million hungry people have no access to good quality food. Conflicts, natural disasters or chronic poverty, have removed that blessing. That’s what motivated area farmer Terry Aberhart and a host of volunteers to plan and host a recent event called the Olde Tyme Harvest for Hunger, in aid of the Canadian Food Grains Bank. The Canadian Food Grains Bank is one of only two primary agencies the Canadian Government partners with in order to bring food aid to hungry people. In 2011-2012 alone, the charitable agency, supported by funding from Canada, distributed 40,849 tonnes of food and seeds to 2.2 million beneficiaries in 36 countries. At the August 24th event near Langenburg, thousands of people gathered to watch forty-one antique steam threshers break a world record. When area farmer Ken Mack lowered the Canadian flag, men and women started pitching sheaves of wheat. They did so for a full fifteen minutes, smashing the previous record for the number of antique threshers on one field. I was privileged to toss the first pitchforks
Parliamentary Report Op-Ed Column by Garry Breitkreuz of sheaves into one of those machines. Goodwill and generosity – as well as nostalgia, steam and excitement – marked the day, full of family entertainment. What a great way to celebrate our agricultural heritage, and to offer help to those who need it most. Our government has partnered with the Canadian Food Grains Bank since 1983. We take seriously our responsibility to help those who are so needy outside our borders. We are a blessed country – and sharing blessings is one way to make sure those blessings continue. From 2010 to 2011, Canada provided more
than $330 million in funding for food assistance. We also funded 70 international development projects having a nutrition component in 78 countries. In October 2011, that amount increased to $350 million. Economic Action Plan 2013, reaffirms Canada’s commitment to nutrition and increasing food security. The new Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development will not stray from its mandate of alleviating poverty. We are in year two of a five-year arrangement with the Canadian Food Grains Bank, where the government multiplies each donated dollar on a four-to-one basis. This cooperation is vital for hopeless, hungry people to thrive and become strong enough to contribute to their communities and help grow their economies. On behalf of Mr. Harper and the Government of Canada, I applaud the vision of Mr. Aberhart, his team, and anyone who contributed in any way to make the Olde Tyme Harvest for Hunger the success it was. Your efforts paid off four times. May God bless you, and may God keep Canada sharing its rich blessings with those who need it most.
A salute to Canada’s military: singer to perform By SHANNON DEVEAU N-R Writer He’s a singer, he’s a song writer and he has big passion for the Canadian military that shines through in his music. Yorkton and area residents will have the opportunity to experience his talents first hand when Calgary’s Chris Gheran takes center stage in the city. On a tour of Western Canada Gheran promises an entertaining, engaging evening that he hopes will at the same time create a greater awareness of the role of Canada’s military and the importance of supporting the local legion, his venue for the upcoming show. “I’ve been a folk musician for awhile, it seems like an eternity,” said 32 year old Gheran in a recent telephone interview with The News Review. “I wasn’t very good in school... so when I was younger I would practice a lot and write a lot and then I finally worked up enough courage to start playing in my early 20s and it kind of just went from there.” He says the appeal of the military is a bit of a mystery to himself but that for as long as he can remember he’s been drawn to it. “I realized though at a young age, that maybe I wasn’t exactly cut out for it,” he adds with a chuckle. “I’m a little more of a poet ... my grandpa had experiences with World War II, I was regaled with tales of heroism and what not. I really respected the plight of the soldier.” After his cousin returned from a tour of duty in Afghanistan it sealed the deal for Gheran adding, through his cousin he had the opportunity to meet many soldiers and to hear their stories. “They

October 1-7 is World Breast Feeding Week By SHANNON DEVEAU N-R Writer Every year, the week of October 1-7 is recognized as ‘World Breast Feeding Week’ across Canada. On Monday evening Yorkton City Council members jumped on board in support of the initiative, declaring the week in Yorkton as well. Support for breast feeding families is important says Carolee Zorn, Chair of the local BFI (Baby Friendly Initiative) Working Group, thus the need to raise awareness. This years’ theme is “Breastfeeding Support: Close to Mothers.”
“Our working group will be launching our latest project on October 1 at the Yorkton Gallagher Centre,” says Zorn. “Our project this year supports breast feeding families and their right to breast feed in public.” As a part of the initiative, Zorn says the group has created life sized cut outs of mothers breast feeding their children and these will be placed in highly visible public areas throughout the region to raise awareness and support. In Yorkton there is a breast feeding support drop in clinic held every Wednesday from 1 - 3 p.m. at the Yorkton Public
Health office located at 150 Independent Street. For more info. call 7860600. Breast Pump rentals are also available by calling the same number. A few facts... • Breastfeeding has many benefits for both you and your baby. It’s a special way for you to feel close to each other. Best of all, though, your breastmilk gives your baby everything she needs to thrive for the first six
months of her life. • Breastfeeding also helps your baby to fight infections in the first few months of her life. • Breastmilk has longchain polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are essential for helping your baby’s brain develop. • Breastfeeding reduces your risk later in life of pre-menopausal breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and bone fractures from osteoporosis.

rule I don’t really try to force it into any specific topic or subject matter. I just kind of let what happens happen when I write. “But because I read so many military books and watch so many documentaries you tend to write a lot about that kind of thing.” Gheran would describe his sound as a classic rock type style. “I might be tempted to say timeless... I really love the older stuff. I’m not really on the band wagon with the ‘new’ sound. I like to keep it very traditional.” Among his influences are the likes of the Beatles, Bob Dillan and the Rolling Stones. When in Yorkton, the audience can expect an up close and personal show says Gheran adding, when he writes he really pays attention to the lyrics and hopes to bring a piece of himself to every performance. “It’s a great show if you want to come and relax. I like to take people down what I call the rabbit hole with me... let them into my personality, my experiences and what I love to sing about. I’m big into story telling do they can expect to hear some good story songs.” All are welcome to come out as this a show that’s perfect for all ages. “From the smallest kids to the oldest old folk it’s for everyone.” “I’m really looking forward to this tour. I get to meet so many great people and travel to a lot of cool little towns... It’ll just be me and my guitar driving around Canada. It’ll be awesome.” Chris Gheran will be performing at the Royal Canadian Legion in Yorkton on September 25. To learn more visit: www.chrisgheran.com.

If you’re pregnant – don’t drink! With all of the facts and information out there, it’s a shame there is a need for such a day. But there is, and with even greater awareness and participation hopefully one day the need will diminish. September 9 was Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) Awareness Day in Saskatchewan. FASD is a life-long disability that is caused by women drinking alcohol while pregnant. Statistics indicate that one out of every 100 children are affected by FASD. That means that in 2012, approximately 150 Saskatchewan babies were born with an FASD. This is something that is 100 per cent preventable and the solution is simple – DON’T drink alcohol if you are pregnant. “FASD is a complex issue requiring complex and creative prevention strategies,” Saskatchewan Prevention Institute Executive Director Noreen Agrey says. “FASD Awareness Day presents a great opportunity for organizations like ours to work with communities throughout the province.” The Saskatchewan government is implementing significantly enhanced strategies to prevent FASD and to support individuals affected by it. The 2013-14 Budget allocated $1.8 million, which will support both individuals and their families. Enhancements include: increased funding; mentorship services an addictions and life skills program for individuals with FASD; an FASD prevention strategy targeting northern youth and additional health care provider training that will increase capacity to screen pregnant women for alcohol consumption and more. Prevention is the key to success. If you see a pregnant woman consuming alcohol speak up. We can all do our part to ensure FASD becomes a condition of the past, not just for one day but all year round.
Game of soccer? Leave the ball at home Whatever happened to letting kids be kids? While I can see a little validity in some of what is being said, in my opinion society is trying to control far too much in areas that should be left alone and far too little in areas where attention is needed. The province of Ontario (and no doubt others will wind up following suit) has announced it is changing the rules when it comes to competitive sports, namely soccer. Beginning this year, soccer leagues will no longer be permitted to keep score during game play, this way every child will feel like a winner. Hmmm... Proponents of the shift say there is too much emphasis on the competitiveness of the sport and too little on confidence building and skill development. Maybe so, but don’t you think the kids involved will be keeping score in their heads anyway? Why do you think they play? They play – or rather they should – play for fun but they also play to win. And is there really anything wrong with that so long as they are taught to win and lose graciously? Competitive sports have been around since the beginning of time and now we’re going to say that’s it, that’s all? And as if taking the score out of the game isn’t
enough of a change, the Soccer Association of Midlake, Ontario has opted to take the concept another step further. With the “growing concern over the effects of competition in youth sports,” the association has announced in this town can no Shannon Deveau kids longer use a ball when they play soccer. WHAT?!? No ball? What is the point of a bunch of kids running around the field kicking air? Now this is just plain and simple silly. “By removing the ball, it’s absolutely impossible to say ‘this team won’ and ‘this team lost’ or ‘this child is better at soccer than that child’ says an association spokesperson. It’s also impossible to say you have played an actual game of soccer. I believe it’s important to do all we can to boost confidence in our children, to help them grow up into strong, intelligent and capable adults, but is this really the way to go about doing that? I think not. You win some, you lose some. That is the reality of life and a person needs to deal with that. If you’re handed a win your entire childhood, how are you ever going to cope when the real world comes knocking? You won’t, end of story.
The way I see it... Column
Are expanding holiday seasons actually that bad? Things I do with words... I recently read an interesting bit of trivia. The movie Dawn of the Dead, released in 1978, was largely filmed in the Monroeville Mall in Pennsylvania. Production was halted for a three week period in December, when the mall was unusable due to the expense of removing the Christmas decorations during the night’s shoot. The trivia is not so much interesting because of the production intricacies of the film, but because of the time period involved. The Christmas promotions were a problem for only three weeks, which seems like an incredibly small amount of time compared to the usual length of Christmas promotions. In fact, all promotions have gone on a somewhat protracted schedule. This year, I saw “Back to School” signs before the school year was even finished, as though the idea of a back to school event was focused firmly on the idea of just going back after the weekend. The idea of extending shopping events has taken hold, if three weeks is good, then a couple months must be better. Many people complain about this, but now that I think about it, I kind of like the increasing expansion of each holiday season. I like it not because I want it to be Christmas every day, as though I’m living in a low-budget Hallmark channel original, but instead
Column Devin Wilger because each holiday has their own little specific specialty, and by the relentless expansion of the season, we are afforded the opportunity to experience those little specialties for more of the year. I like mandarin oranges and egg nogg, two things that are now available for months instead of just in December. I don’t know if I want them in the summer – egg nogg does seem like it would be kind of stomach churning in the middle of some thirty degree heat – but I do want them for more than a single month, and the increased length of the Christmas season means that they’re available for an increasingly long period of time. It gives one extra time to enjoy a good thing.
It’s the same with those other holidays, they all have their specific attractions that are only available for that small part of the year, and I like those attractions. I admit that in some cases, I don’t want to have too many more months of those products. The tiny eggs that become popular at Easter only fill one with regret and chocolate, and then you need a year to forget that it was a terrible idea to eat so many. My personal distaste for Hallowe’en also makes me reluctant to embrace any expansion the orange-tinted macabre that explodes every year. I could complain about the extended Back to School promotion as well, but it also means cheap pens, so I’ll let that one slide. The thing is, while I know plenty of people complain about how holidays are drawn out, I’ve come to the realization that I’m not entirely against it. Sure, extending it out too far drains the celebration of meaning, but I have to break from the crowd that suggests this is always a bad thing. The extension doesn’t make the holiday less meaningful on a personal level, it just means that we get more time to enjoy some of the fruits of the season – in some cases, the actual, literal fruits. That said, I wonder what it would be like to have a Christmas season last for a mere three weeks.

Cutting jobs are we cutting our own throats? To the Editor: When we cut jobs, are we cutting our own throats? Jobs are our livelihoods; they give us life.

These two jobs are directly connected to climate change. Climate change models indicate increasing forest fire risk; the US spent over $1 billion on wildfires in August. A prudent climate change adaptation strategy would be to test the camera system before dismantling the cupolas. Regina,
the chosen location for a centralized laundry, draws its water from 57 km away and climate change modeling predicts the region will become dryer. A shrewd adaption strategy would be to decentralize the laundry by investing in the diverse current laundry locations. (Decentralization would also reduce CO2 emissions and highway in-
frastructure costs.) While the government’s intention to “save money” is commendable, we must stop this insanity of ignoring silent evidence. The social evidence is mounting that austerity kills people and economic growth. The climate change evidence is mounting that adaptation is extremely costly. Saving money needs to be a means to an intentional and intended end – not an unintended and unintentional end to our collective health and our shared environment. Nancy Carswell, Shellbrook, SK.
Save the grasslands, it’s part of our heritage To the Editor: The Green Party of Saskatchewan (GPS) says there needs to be more due diligence before Privatized Crown grasslands are ploughed. Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart needs to keep three points in mind before he allows any more of the grasslands to be changed: 1) We wish the government would stop any further land sales for now,
2) There needs to be an inventory completed of the land species that live on those grasslands, and 3) Begin a public review of what the citizens of Saskatchewan want done with the remaining crown grasslands. This natural habitat is not only part of our environmental stewardship, but is also part of our province’s heritage. Therefore everyone in the province should have a say in what happens
with these lands. If doing due diligence in regards to Crown grasslands is too overwhelming for the current Minister of Agriculture, then perhaps Premier Brad Wall should consider taking over this important portfolio himself, to ensure that timely action happens in regard to this matter. Victor Lau, Leader of the Green Party of Saskatchewan, Regina, SK.
To the Editor: P3’s sound like a great financial shortcut, but do the people of Swift Current /Saskatchewan know the dangers? Some examples of excessive costs of P3’s: • Ontario hospitals: Ontario’s Auditor-General recently revealed that the province’s flagship P3 hospital, Brampton Civic, cost the public $200 million more than if it had been publicly financed and built directly by the province. • East Coast Toll Roads: An estimated more than $300 million in tolls were produced on the Cobequid Pass for a deal in which private financiers put up $66 million. The Nova Scotia government is paying interest rate of 10 per cent for 30 years, twice its rate of borrowing. • Universities: A P3 project at the Universite de Quebec a Montreal failed, doubling the cost to the public from $200 million to $400 million. • West Coast Highways: B.C.’s Seato-Sky Highway will cost taxpayers $220 million more than if it had been financed and operated publicly. • The Confederation Bridge: Designed and built by SCDI, a international private sector consortium. SCDI will operate and maintain the bridge for 35 years after which time it will be transferred to the Government of Canada. (Just in time for major renovation) SCDI is entitled to all toll revenue from the bridge for 35 years. Capital was provided by a New Brunswick Crown Corporation, Strait Crossing Finance Inc. which issued bonds to raise the money to build the bridge. This bond issue was secured by the Government of Canada which pledged to retire the bonds with a stream of annual payments of $41.9 million over thirty-five years. The sum is an estimate of the value of the annual subsidy which formerly went toward the Borden-Cape Tormentine ferry service. • Winnipeg South District Police Station: In 2012 Winnipeg’s Mayor announced that this P3 was a cost-saving initiative for the taxpayer. The P3 lease contract is now being canceled, with savings being found by bringing the financing and operations of the project fully public. • Chicago: Chicago’s 36,000 parking meters were sold in a 75-year lease to an investor group. (P3) The city was paid $974 million less for this 75-year lease than they would have received from 75 years of parking-meter revenue. That’s nearly $1 billion into private coffers that could have been used for public services. Furthermore, Chicago cannot build parking lots for the contract duration because they might compete with the outsourced parking meters. Unfortunately the Harper Government refuses Federal funding for Infrastructure unless it is a P3 project. Economic blackmail wouldn’t you say? Joyce Neufeld Waldeck, SK.

The Royal Canadian Legion gives back POPPY FUND – The Royal Canadian Legion Branch #77’s Poppy Fund’s mandate is to contribute to causes that help veterans as well as the community at large. Three different donations were made within the Sunrise Health Region, helping with different programs. Meals on Wheels and the Nursing Home Activities Department received $1,000 each to support their programs. The Health Foundation received $10,000 towards the purchase of cardiac stress test lab equipment and a hematology analyzer, to enhance the capabilities of the local Stroke Clinic. Pictured above are Peter Wyatt, Legion President, Ross Fisher, Executive Director of the Health Foundation, George Arnold with the Legion, Suzanne Beck with the Nursing Home Activities Department and Sherri Walker, Director of Homecare. Wyatt emphasizes that the money raised from the Poppy Fund is allocated to worthy causes like these, which will improve the quality of life for local veterans, as well as the community at large, and not used for the purposes of the Legion itself.
The power of flour! Chef Dez on Cooking by Gordon Desormeaux www.chefdez.com
In a previous column about quick breads, you wrote that gluten is formed/created when flour is mixed together with a liquid. However, you also mentioned that bread flour “contains” more gluten than allpurpose or pastry flour. What is the difference between the gluten that is already present in flour, and the gluten that is formed when flour is mixed with a
Gerrit B. Maple Ridge, BC
Dear Gerrit: This is a very excellent question. The terms are basically synonymous with each other. Let me see if I can try to make it easy to understand. If the term “gluten” is referred to, when discussing raw flours, it is in reference to the amount of hard wheat content in the flour. This is in turn responsible for the amount of “gluten” created when moisture is added and agitated. One will say, “create gluten” when mixing, but more accurately it would be described as “making it more apparent” by the kneading/ mixing process. This in turn makes the gluten (the one in the raw flour) stringy and stretchy – giving us structure in baked goods such as bread. Send your food/cooking questions to dez@chefdez.com or P.O.

Dear Chef Dez:

flour is therefore generally used with leaveners such as baking powder, baking soda, and/or eggs, and then keeping agitation/mixing to a minimum. Bread flour is made entirely from hard wheat to provide a high gluten content to ensure texture in breads. Yeast is almost always the leavener with bread flour. The elastic strands of dough capture yeast gases as it bakes, giving the bread height and structure. All-purpose flour is a mixture of both hard and soft wheat, and functions in the manner that the name represents. It is good for all applications such as breads, cakes or pastries, but it is not ideal. Superior quality baked goods will always start from the correct selection of flour.
Yorkton Lions Club
Not only is flour considered the most beneficial ingredient in baking, but also it is an ingredient found in almost every household kitchen. Therefore the more one knows about this necessity, the better the judgments made in refining culinary adventures. Although there are a number of varieties of flour available, many of them are made from wheat. This will be my focus for the rationale of this column. The main varieties of wheat flour available will vary slightly from store to store, but will typically be all-purpose, cake & pastry, and bread flour. Wheat produced into flour can be separated into two categories: hard or soft kernel. The milling process begins at separating the bran, germ, and endosperm of these wheat categories. It is from the endosperm that flour, as we know it, is created as it is milled into a powder. Whole-wheat flours, on the other hand, are made from milling together all three components of the wheat kernel, not just the endosperm. The flour from hard wheat contains a higher gluten content than soft wheat. Higher gluten is beneficial to creating structure in baked goods, such as breads and pizza crusts. When flour is mixed with a liquid, the gluten is responsible for the elastic responsiveness of dough. Cake & pastry flour is made entirely from soft wheat to provide a low gluten content to ensure the tenderness of these delicate goods. This

Maguire takes audiences down Memory Lane By DEVIN WILGER N-R Writer Stephen Maguire would like to take you on a trip down Memory Lane. The singer is bringing his show, which features hits from the ‘40s, ‘50s and ‘60s back to Yorkton as part of the Stars for Saskatchewan series on September 18. Maguire has been busy on the road with the show, including previous concerts in Yorkton. He says that it’s been keeping him busy ever since he began the Memory Lane tour, and it’s something which people all around want to hear. “It’s the kind of music that resonates with people, you know? It’s music I grew up with, with my father playing with people like Van Morrison, Dusty Springfield and Bert Weedon. I was
immersed in this from a very early age, so we’re loving having Memory Lane on the road.” The show will feature an eight piece big band, and Maguire says they come out swinging. He notes that the arrangements have been handled to bring out the best in the songs. “To do the songs justice you need a big band. We didn’t want to do this half-heartedly. We’re very fortunate to work with some great musicians, and everywhere we go we try to get as many local musicians as possible to be in the band.” The driving goal of Memory Lane is to present the music in the best possible way, and to do justice to the many classic songs being covered. Maguire describes the songs themselves as the

foundation for modern music, and says that there are always links between the acts of today and the songs from the show. “All of the music now has been influenced by that, and it’s hard not to be influenced by that,” Maguire says. Maguire says it’s a family show, and something which has such a breadth and depth of music that it truly has something everyone can enjoy, whether they’re old favorites or songs that people have not heard before. “It’s great to see grandparents with grandkids in the audience. It’s great to show them what they grew up with... At the end of the day, we say we’ll have people dancing in the aisles, and we haven’t failed in that yet. It’s just a real feel-good

night, a real family night of entertainment, and I think people leave in a better mood than when they came in the door.” While still drawing from the same era as his previous visits to Yorkton, Maguire says that the show will stay fresh, and since the era has so many great songs, he’s able to give audiences a new experience each time. With his connections to Yorkton, Maguire says it’s always a treat to come back and see the local audience, whether it’s new faces or familiar people. The show takes place Wednesday, September 18 at 8:00 PM at the Anne Portnuff Theatre, Yorkton Regional High School.

Sept. is BBBS Month By SHANNON DEVEAU N-R Writer The month of September is Big Brothers Big Sisters Month both in Yorkton and across Canada. This marks the 100th year the organization has served more than 37,000 children in Canada. “Big Brothers Big Sisters is proven to improve children’s odds for succeeding in school, behaving non-violently, increased self-esteem/self-worth, healthier lifestyles, evidence of higher incomes, avoiding drugs and alcohol, and breaking other negative cycles,” said Irma Van De Bon, Executive Director of the local organization to council Monday evening. “We currently serve over 250 children annually through mentoring relationships mentoring in the communities of Yorkton, Melville, Churchbridge, Esterhazy and Langenburg. There are still many children on a waiting list for a mentor.” Van De Bon says BBBS believes that by changing the course of young lives, it can change the course of a communities future. “It can lead to a reduction in poverty and unemployment, contribute to safer schools and neighborhoods, and add a renewed optimism for growth. “It could even lead to change on a broader, more far
reaching scale. Whether it’s in the form of time or money there is no more important investment we as individuals can make than in helping our community’s children realize – and share – their full potential.” In September there are a number of local activities and events planned to raise awareness surrounding BBBS. A flag raising ceremony was held Tuesday morning. Also throughout the month, the Canadian Western Bank will be making donations based on amounts invested by customers. A fundraising barbecue was held at Sobey’s and on September 18, a special gala event has been slated to celebrate BBBS and the contributions it has made over the last 100 years. “We invite you to join us for an inspirational and fun evening with our Guest of Honour, Michael “Pinball” Clemons.” The event will include a banquet, volunteer appreciation awards and both a silent and live auctions. “Big brothers Big Sisters of Yorkton and area is all about friends and making a difference in a child’s life. You can help us to make a difference in the lives of so many children...” To learn more call (306)782-3471 or email bbbsyorkton@sasktel.net.

Literacy Day celebrated in Sask. September 8 was Literacy Day in Saskatchewan, a time to create an awareness of the importance of reading and writing. Saskatchewan’s proclamation of the day recognizes the global tradition that began in 1965 by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). For more than 40 years, UNESCO has been celebrating this day by reminding the international community that literacy is a human right and the foundation for all learning. This year’s theme is Literacies for the 21st Century. “Reading and writing skills are foundational to an individual’s life-long learning and future success,” Education Minister Russ Marchuk says. “A welleducated and highlyskilled population contributes to the social
BRAIN BOOGIE – The Saskatchewan Brain Injury Association recently hosted the annual Brain Boogie, an event to raise funds and awareness for acquired brain injury programs. Participants spent an hour doing a “boogie” to raise funds for the Yorkton chapter. Money raised goes toward support groups and to help people with brain injuries in the area. Lynette Strom, Brain Boogie coordinator says that the only way to stop brain injury is through prevention, and says one of the big ways to prevent injury is to wear helmets when on ATVs, bikes and skateboards, which she says would prevent many of the injuries she sees on a regular basis.

and economic well-being of our communities and our province.” There are a number of organizations that support the development of these skills for people and communities in Saskatchewan, including the Saskatchewan Literacy Network (SLN) and the Saskatchewan Aboriginal Literacy Network (SALN). “Literacy is a dynamic process where we make sense of the world around us through lifelong and life wide learning,” SLN Executive Director Karen Rosser adds. “It is about how we communicate in so-
ciety and how we prepare for a changing world.” For more information on the Government of Saskatchewan’s initiatives to improve literacy, visit www.education.gov.sk.ca/literacy.

The farmer is trained, moves on and settles in Submitted by Kaare Askildt, former Preeceville area farmer in training. This is one of a series on getting settled in Hazel Dell. Ken Leibel from KCL Electric hooked up the pump on the septic tank and rewired the chicken coop to conform to code. He did an excellent job! I enjoy watching these tradesmen at work; they make it seem so simple! However, I had to give my hip some rest, so I had to go back inside to work in my office. My wife has now painted the barn the proper barn red with white trim. My oh my, does it ever look good! We are fixing up our Ponderosa the way we want it, a little bit at a time. It is our little heaven on earth! I’m improving every day, so I can start pulling my weight again! That should make for some humorous moments, I’m sure! As an example, I was standing watching Ken while leaning heavily on my cane. Along came our two large dogs play fighting and one dog’s rear end swung around and
hit my operated leg, causing me to lose my balance in agonizing pain, (visualize) resulting in me doing an energetic sideways cane assisted two step. I regained my balance and didn’t fall! However, the dogs realized that they had done something they should not have, and stayed out of reach. It was probably my extremely loud Norwegian utterances describing the dark netherworld that gave them a clue! A few months ago I wrote about Mother Nature and Father Winter, but we do not have a description as to who provides the hot summer weather. In my humble opinion, it must be a female, who else could get that hot. Furthermore, it stays hot for a long, long time, and usually ends with dark clouds and a rumble, which is another clue
“We are fixing up our Ponderosa the way we want it, a little bit at a time. It is our little heaven on earth! I’m improving every day, so I can start pulling my weight again! That should make for some humorous moments, I’m sure!” that it must be a female. Then she disappears for a while, only to come back with a vengeance! The question is who is she? She is probably single and starts out hot as in Ooh Mama! But then she turns angry and finishes off with a growl that could be accompanied by some tears (rain). A spurned wife? A dejected bride? A jealous lover? Nah, they don’t fit. Perhaps a divorcee? Or a left behind spinster? Nope, don’t fit either. Could it be a mother-in-
law? No way! I guess we have to go back to the old Norse Mythology, and give it to Freyja, the goddess who at times searches for her husband Odr who is away at battle. She at times cries tears of red, as seen in the sunsets. Freyja it is! Then who provided all the rain and caused all the flooding? More than likely Thor, as she opened the flood gates prior to running his steel wheeled chariot pulled by two giant goats down the cobblestone roads of Valhalla
FASD help Submitted by Regional Kids First Monday, September 9 was FASD Awareness Day in Saskatchewan. Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) refers to the range of effects that can occur in infants, children, youth or adults who were exposed to alcohol before birth. These effects may include physical, mental, behavioral and/ or learning disabilities. The only way someone can get FASD is if their mother drank alcohol when she was pregnant. When a pregnant woman drinks alcohol, her blood stream carries the alcohol to her baby. When Mom drinks, baby drinks! There is NO SAFE AMOUNT of alcohol during pregnancy. There is NO SAFE TIME to drink alcohol during pregnancy. When a woman drinks while pregnant, there is a risk of her baby’s brain not developing fully. The brain can be injured at any time during the nine months of pregnancy. The effects of the alcohol are permanent. FASD cannot be cured. However, people with FASD can still do very well with helpful supports and services. Some examples include special education, vocational programs, tutors, structured environments, and lifelong care. FASD can be prevented! If you are pregnant, or planning to be pregnant, don’t drink alcohol. If you are the partner, family member or friend, you can support a pregnant woman by encouraging her not to drink alcohol at this time. If you need help, contact your health care provider or the FASD Support Network of Saskatchewan: Phone for free: 1-866-673-3276. Visit: www.skfasnetwork.ca for more information.

Ole, Lars and Sven had been going to the Scandinavian Club hall meeting as long as there had been a hall. And every month, wouldn’t ya know it, they didn’t win a prize in the monthly draw. That is until the last meeting. Sven was the first one of the three to get his name drawn. He won two pounds of spaghetti sauce, four boxes of noodles, and three pounds of Swedish meatballs. Ole had his name drawn next. He got himself round trip tickets to Winnipeg, a stay for one night at the Dew Drop Inn and a pair of tickets to see the Inger triplets Polka Ensemble. Ole thought that he had
died and gone to heaven. Lars was the last one to have his name drawn, he won a toilet brush. At the next monthly meeting, they sat down together to check out how each other had fared for the past month. Sven said “Uff da, I had dat pasghetti for tree days.

Terriers 2013/14 preseason hits high gear By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer With some big gaps to fill from last year’s SJHL Championship winning squad, head coach Trent Cassan had plenty of chances to evaluate his options for the Terriers 2013/14 roster this past week as Yorkton linked up for four exhibition games over seven days, a busy schedule that was a blessing after a power outage cancelled Yorkton’s annual Orange-Black intrasquad game. Yorkton instead opted to go with mostly rookies and new faces in their preseason exhibition against the Waywayseecapo Wolverines to open the preseason before
playing host to the Swan Valley Stampeders at home Friday night to open up their 2013/14 season at the Farrell Agencies Arena. Against Manitoba Junior Hockey League opponents the Terriers had no problems in winning both games to start off the preseason undefeated. Still despite being successful in the win/ loss column this preseason, Cassan has been around long enough to know not to get caught up in the statsheet too much during the exhibition calendar. “We obviously look at big plays and goals when evaluating who we are going to put onto our team, but at the end of the day it is about much more than that and we are looking to see which guys are going to fit into certain roles,
which guys are going to battle, which guys are going to step up and block shots and things of that nature when we look at who is going to play where,” explains Cassan. One of those positions that Cassan is spending a lot of time evaluating this September is between the pipes as SJHL Finals Co-MVP Dawson MacAuley appears on track to be at the very least a backup on the Regina Pats roster this season after being acquired by the Pats from the Calgary Hitmen at the 2013 WHL Bantam Draft. With Kale Thomson nursing an injury, it has given Cassan even more chances to explore. Cont. on Page 13.
Kailum Gervais headed to WHL’s Red Deer Rebels By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer The Yorkton Terriers appeared to have lucked out when first line forward Kailum Gervais didn’t report to Brandon Wheat Kings camp this August. Gervais, a crucial two way forward who gave protection to Jeremy Johnson and Tyler Giebel at the same time as contributing more than his fair share of offensive punch, wasn’t interested in the role the Wheat Kings were offering and elected to stay with the SJHL champs for training camp. That changed over the weekend as rumours swirled that the forwards rights were about to be acquired by the Red Deer Rebels who according to Gervais offered a much more enticing role than the Wheat Kings, who were mostly interested in Gervais as a fighter. “When the Wheat Kings touched base with me they let me know they wanted me to mostly fight and I felt that I can offer more to the table than just fighting and Red Deer seems to feel that way as well so I am excited for a new opportunity in a new environment,” says Gervais. Gervais has the numbers to back up his belief that he can be much more than an enforcer in the Western Hockey League if he continues to develop. The 1995 born Gervais scored 13 goals and posted 25
more points on assists in his first full Junior season making the jump from splitting time with the Yorkton Harvest in 2011/12 to playing on the Terriers championship winning first line. In the playoffs Gervais continued to show his value, in Round One against the Bruins he kept the underdog Estevan team from pushing around the Terriers. He even played hurt, missing a handful of games, but coming back everytime in a playoffs where he scored four goals and posted four assists. At the Western Canada Cup in Nanaimo Gervais was in on the scoresheet in the tournament semifinal to lead the Terriers over the host Nanaimo Clippers before Yorkton fell one game short of the Royal Bank Cup in a 1-0 loss to the Brooks Bandits. Heading to Red Deer Gervais mentioned that he feels confident in his ability to make the team due to the fact that Red Deer reached out to acquire him and are interested in his physical edge as well as for his skill. Two things that the Terriers are sure to miss. Before leaving to Red Deer Gervais made it clear that his experience in Yorkton will be one that he won’t forget and hinted that if he does get sent back down that he would be more than ready to step into a championship defense run. “I had a great experience play-
ing with some of the best teammates I have ever had with the Terriers and winning a championship is experience I will never forget,” says Gervais. “I
have to thank Trent and the rest of the coaches for helping me develop into a stronger player and who knows maybe down the line I will be back.”
KAILUM GERVAIS will be going from the Terriers first line to the WHL’s Red Deer Rebels as the 1995 born forward’s rights were sent from Brandon to the Rebels this week.

After finding corporate partners in Kramer Ltd for the SJHL’s Central division, the league found naming rights for the new division housing the Yorkton Terriers and the Melville Millionaires for the 2013/14 season. Naturally their new partner stayed under the agricultural umbrella as the SJHL once again further attached itself to the rural fanbase. Viterra has secured

Spots up for grabs as Yorkton Terriers prepare for title defense Cont from Page 11. In the first home game Cassan employed the services of two young prospects in goal in the 1997 born Matt Kustra and the 1996 born Carson Bogdan. Kustra had just returned from Prince George Cougars camp and would split time on Friday night with Bogdan who was solid in goal for the Yorkton Harvest last season. On Friday both stood their ground against a Swan Valley Stampeders squad that was mostly comprised of overage or veteran players. Bogdan and Kustra didn’t appear to be intimidated by the more physically mature competition something that showed the confidence of both goaltenders who just allowed one goal apiece over thirty minutes of work each in a 4-2 win. After the game both goalies were praised from Cassan. “I think
both Bogdan and Kustra have their own individual strengths and could both step up if they were on our team, obviously Kustra is an up and comer with Prince George in the WHL and Bogdan is coming off of a solid year with the Harvest so you saw tonight how far along both players have come in just a year playing a veteran team.” Kustra after the game that his time with the Prince George Cougars which included gametime in the intrasquad game allowed him to jump right into things once given the nod in goal for the Terriers home debut. “I have been at camps for awhile now and was really working on my game before having my best performance in the intrasquad game right before leaving camp so it was a smooth adjustment to go from there into an opportunity with my hometown
team in Yorkton,” says Kustra. Bogdan, Kustra’s rival in the SMAAHL with Bogdan playing for the Harvest and the Yorkton product Kustra playing in Notre Dame, was equally comfortable in playing in Yorkton due to his familiarity in the rink. “I obviously have played in Yorkton a lot with the Harvest and with the Terriers when I get called up so I felt really comfortable in my surroundings,” explains Bogdan. Bogdan was again in goal for the Terriers as they beat the Millionaires 5-1 on Tuesday in the tail end of a home and home series with their Highway 10 rivals. Tyler Giebel played in his first preseason action with linemates Kailum Gervais and Jeremy Johnson out of the picture Giebel centered a line with Dylan Johnson and Daylan Gatzke to start the
Harvest start SMAAHL preseason By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer New Yorkton Harvest head coach Dan Cross opened up his Saskatchewan AAA Midget Hockey League head coaching career against a familiar foe in the Regina Pat Canadians over the weekend as the two rivals from the 2012/13 visited each others cities for two exhibition games over the weekend. With new faces abound the Harvest young guns showed Cross that he has something to work with as Yorkton won the opening game of the weekend 2-1 in Regina before tying 3-3 at the Farrell Agencies Arena Sunday. Corwin Stevely had a natural hat trick in Sunday’s game to give the Pat C’s a 3-0 lead in the first period before Regina bounced back to tie it up in a wild six goal first period. After that point things tightened up and ended in a 3-3 tie after zero goals were managed in the following two periods and overtime. Still Cross was pleased with how his young Harvest team came out to start the preseason. “Anytime you can come out and start the preseason off with some success you feel good and it is important to get that going for our young guys,” says Cross. Last year the Harvest started off slow, falling deep into the bottom of the SMAAAHL standings before recovering to finish in the top half of the standings table at the end of the year, finishing fifth before losing to the Pat C’s in the final game of the first round. Dan Cross was an assistant under Jeff Odgers last year and he will be looking to build onto that performance from last season on a team that on paper looks like it will be nearly as good as last season despite the personnel changes that come with AAA Midget
hockey. Leading goalscorer Lynnden Pastachak moved onto to the Estevan Bruins after training camp with the Red Deer Rebels, top blueliner Ethan Bear is still in Seattle camp with the Thunderbirds and Nicolas Pouliot is now a Weyburn Red Wing. Part of Midget AAA hockey’s goal being developing players to make the jump to junior, Cross isn’t concerned with who is going to be back and who is going to make the jump. “Players returning isn’t a boost for us because the goal of our program and what Yorkton Harvest hockey is all about is developing players and getting them ready for the next level and the next jump,” says Cross. “When guys come back it is great to get a chance to continue to work with them and winning comes from developing great players, but our focus is set on helping guys make the jump and I am happy to see a lot of our players move on towards their goals this season.” Cross will still have plenty of talent to work with. Adam Niebrandt looks like an up and comer to watch out of the Yorkton Minor Hockey system and Turner Ottenbreit is returning from Saskatoon Blades camp where he made the first round of cuts after an impressive training camp where he showed his potential as a future shutdown defenseman. That potential will be shown with the Harvest this season as he projects to get a lot of ice time, something that has the young prospect excited for the season. “Getting a chance to play a leadership role and get a lot of ice time back in Yorkton is a huge plus for me and I am excited to get the season going on a team that I think is going to win” says Ottenbreit. The Harvest will continue their preseason this week before cutting down to their final roster soon.

Bogdan allowed just one goal as Yorkton dominated as their veteran players showed that they are ready for the puck to drop on the regular season. The game also saw the debut of Californiaborn Jett Salinas who made the move from the American Junior circuit to a short stint in the BCHL before moving to Yorkton for a chance to improve his game. Salinas looked comfortable in goal
despite not facing much traffic, making a beautiful glove save as one of his lone highlights in the second half of the Terriers blowout win. Salinas says that the biggest adjustment so far has been the move from the American game to Canada as well as getting familiar to the rinks and angles that come with it, but he is excited to join a team with a reputation for building quality players. “Yorkton has a great reputation and
tradition of success and winning a championship last year was definitely a factor in coming here and I hope I can make the team and contribute to defending the title.” Yorkton will continue its preseason schedule with two more games before making some tough roster choices. After three wins out of four to start the preseason it looks like Trent Cassan has his hands full in picking from a talented group.

It is time to retire the “Redskin” nickname from sports Ruttig’s rants
Race and sports are always going to be intertwined as sports is often intertwined with all social issues due to the nature of sports as being a distraction from those daily issues. Those issues then naturally creep into the arena, but very rarely in sports these days do you see that racism come from the tradition of the sports club or organization itself. We have long moved past the days of seeing the Boston Red Sox refuse to sign black players long after Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier, or black coaches and quarterbacks being blackballed from the NFL for a perceived lack of “brains” compared to the white man. When you look back at those days and footage from those eras you wonder how that could have ever happened, how people could have defended such logic? So why do the Washington Redskins exist? The Redskin name is one that has now became a hot and touchy topic among those opposed to the NFL and Redskins owner Dan Snyder’s use of what they perceive to be a racial slur. Suzan Shown Harjo, a woman of Cheyenne and Muscogee descent who is president of the Morning Star Institute, a national indigenous-rights organization in D.C. Harjo said , “For most Native Americans, there’s no more offensive name in English. That non-Native folks think they get to measure or decide what offends us is adding insult to injury.”
Column Chase Ruttig Dan Snyder ignores those claims and defends Washington’s use of the name, as does NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. They do so in the face of the United States congress, who in a letter from 10 members of Congress this month, including Oklahoma Republican Tom Cole of the Chickasaw Nation, who said that the name was similar to having a team called “the Washington N-words” and that it “diminishes feelings of community and worth among the Native American tribes.” They talk about the tradition of the “Redskins” calling the name “a unifying force that stands for strength, courage, pride and respect.” When they do this they like to pretend that the originator of the Redskins name, owner George Preston Mar-
shall, was the NFL’s most notorious bigot. Infamously saying that he will start playing Negroes when the Harlem Globetrotters start playing whites. Doesn’t that scream of unity to you? This isn’t a matter of being named the Cleveland Indians or the Kansas City Chiefs, even the Notre Dame Fighting Sioux were at least named somewhat respectfully after something that wasn’t an outright slur. We are talking about a name that has now been publicly confirmed as insensitive to the original peoples of the United States and the NFL is turning a blind eye. It should be no surprise in a league where Riley Cooper, a man who just this offseason said that he would fight every “N-word in here” to a black security guard (at a Kenny Chesney concert of all places), was catching passes on Week One of the season with nothing more than a fine and some bad publicity, that the Washington Redskins name is being so desperately defended. After all those burgundy and yellow jerseys were amongst the NFL top sellers. Money has long been what the NFL is after at the end of the day, it isn’t hard to tell from the commercial breaks that come after every play, or the hundreds of dollars millions all pay to get NFL Sunday Ticket just to get access to every NFL game. That money will keep the Redskins around for as long as possible. Profit at the end of the day is more important than doing the right thing.
Roughriders caught playing down to Bombers level in Banjo Bowl By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer If the Labour Day Classic was an escape from embarrassment at the hands of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, Sunday’s Banjo Bowl at Investors Group Field offered no emergency exits for the Saskatchewan Roughriders who for the first time this season looked completely broken. A shocking 25-13 loss culminated a month in which the Riders have been caught playing down to their competition. The Riders had won three in a row before but were challenged by teams with in-
ferior records as of late. Saskatchewan needed a last gasp field goal by Chris Milo to beat the Montreal Alouettes 2421 on Aug. 17. One week later, the Riders eked out a 30-27 win over the host Edmonton Eskimos that could have easily been a loss if quarterback Mike Reilly had gas left in the tank for Edmonton’s final drive. In the Labour Day Classic, the Riders trailed 18-14 at the half before beating the Blue Bombers 48-25. On Sunday, their luck in playing down to their opponents and coming out unscathed finally ran out at the worst pos-
sible time to the worst possible team. An inspired Winnipeg defense had no problem in getting their hands on Darian Durant and that pressure caused enough problems for Justin Goltz to one up his LDC performance the previous week and did exactly what he set out to do, beat the Roughriders. Winnipeg looked like anything but the 1-8 team that was coming into Sunday’s game, a lot of it having to do with the chance to salvage what has been an otherwise laughably bad season with a win over their rivals. Without
a win at their new stadium, the Bombers knew to leave nothing on the field. After a 98 yard kick return for a touchdown from the speedy Will Ford, it was clear that the Bombers were going to once again stay close with the Riders. Ford’s kickoff return touchdown would be the only major score of the first half, Chris Milo’s four field goals would give Saskatchewan a 12-10 lead after the first half, but the fact that Darian Durant couldn’t plunge the ball through the end zone in the first two quarters would foreshadow
what turned into a second half nightmare. In the second half it would be a nightmare for Rider fans as the new LDC/Banjo Bowl villain in Goltz would rush for two touchdowns inside the five yard line to seal Winnipeg’s victory. Durant didn’t produce one touchdown drive on Sunday. “We just didn’t match their intensity,’’ said Durant to the media after the game, who was 15 of 39 for 129 yards and one interception. “We didn’t play well and they played at a high level. We didn’t protect the ball and we did everything to give them the
game. I don’t want to take anything away from them, but we didn’t execute and we didn’t have any touchdowns on offence.’’ The loss pushed the Riders back to 8-2 and into a tie with the Calgary Stampeders for first in the West, a race for homefield advantage that is going to heat up as Saskatchewan’s calendar gets more and more difficult as the season wears on. Next on the horizon for the Riders are tough matchups with the Toronto Argonauts and the BC Lions, there will be no more time to play down to their competition now.

Saints lose in season opener By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer
CARTER RUFF looks to beat the Foam Lake cornerback in East Central 9-Man football action at Sacred Heart. The Saints fell 21-7 to the Panthers, who are expected to be one of the top teams in the league. Sacred plays Melville on the road this week.
Despite a 21-7 final score for the Foam Lake Panthers to close out the Sacred Heart 9-Man football season opener at home, the Saints look to be headed in the right direction from last year. In 2012 the Panthers blew the Saints out on Sacred’s home field, this year the Saints shut out the Panthers until late on in the second half, where the Panthers outside running strategy ultimately wore down the Saints on a hot September afternoon. Sacred built a 7-0 lead in the first half off a timely turnover that followed with a touchdown catch by grade nine wideout Nathan Cochrane on the final play of the quarter to set off what was looking like a potential Saints upset. The improved new look Saints continued to play stingy defense in the third quarter, but Foam Lake kept working the run, using swing blocking schemes on power sweeps for much of
the second half before they finally broke through to tie up the game. From there the Saints ran out of gas, but were in the game until the final drive of the game, a result that coach Trent Senger feels points the Sacred football program in the right direction. “There are many positives from this game especially the play of a handful of grade nine and grade ten athletes who have never played football before who stepped up and showed us that we have a lot of talent to work with this year,” mentions Senger who feels that the Panthers will once again be one of the top teams in the East Central 9-Man league. Next for Sacred is a midweek road game against the MCS Cobras down the Highway 10 in Melville that will be another big test for the young Saints. Senger plans on sticking with the likes of the Cobras and Panthers this year and restoring Sacred’s usual status as a league contender in 2013. If they can build on the first three quarters of Week One, they will.
Gridders move to 4-0 to open RMF season with win in Estevan By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer Undefeated through their opening three games in the Regina Minor Football Atom Division regular season, Yorkton Atom Gridders travelled to meet the Estevan Atom Miners on their home turf Saturday, September 7 in what would be another convincing road win for the promising young Gridders program. Yorkton has known all season that they have had a strong defense, but today they were able to put it on paper by earning their season’s first shutout. “The goal from the beginning of the game was to get the shut out and they did it by playing with intensity and determination as a unit,” said coach Ryan Effa. On Saturday Effa’s Gridder defense did not disappoint, from the opening whistle to the final play, the Gridder defense did not give up many yards against the Miners. The Gridder offense did its part in the game as well - they had 4 different players scoring touchdowns. To start off with, Johntee Ostapowich used his elusive speed out to the corner with his shakin’ and bakin’ and put the first touchdown up on the board with Conner Watrych finding his way to the endzone for the convert on a naked boot to put the Gridders up 7-0. The offense had plenty of time to make plays thanks to the continued hard work from the Gridder defense which caused numerous 2-andouts for the Miners, who had problems dealing with the Gridders pass rush on Saturday. With the ball back Johntee Ostapowich’s number was called once again and he did not disappoint leaving the Miner defense in the coal dust. Garrett Ellis pushed through the middle for the convert. Yorkton’s third touchdown came with less than a minute left in the first half as a Gridders furious two minute drill put the nail in the Miners coffin. The Gridder offense went into high gear as they only needed two plays to score a touchdown. Nic Nesseth
came through in the clutch with less than 20 seconds left on the clock as he was able to straightarm a defender and go up the sidelines to score. First year wide receiver Josh Needham reached high for a completion to get the conversion. After two quarters of football, the Gridders looked on the road to victory up three scores over the hosts thanks to their timely two minute drill to close the half. That late score saw the Gridders entering the second half with a score of 21-0, but they would make sure to pick up more insurance in the second half. On Yorkton’s first possession, Garrett Ellis blasted through the middle of the Miner defense, broke two tackles and rocketed into the endzone on a 65-yard run. Watrych ran another bootleg for the convert. 28-0 Gridders, fully putting the game out of reach with the Gridders defense looking impossible to solve. The Gridder defense applied so much team pressure to the Miner offense that Estevan was not able to register a single first down in the second half, an impressive feat from a young football team. Gridder running back Carter Pawliw juked and jived past the Miner D with the help of some outstanding blocks from Yorkton running backs and slots to put the final TD on the board. The convert was run in by QB Watrych and Yorkton would finish the game with an impressive 35-0 shutout victory, a complete effort from the Gridders. Coach Jason Boyda explained “Justin Fookes and his O line really worked hard to contribute to this day’s win. They have been getting better all season and have become an integral part of the team’s success.” The Gridders’ 35-0 win over the Estevan Miners puts them at a 4-0 record this season in the Regina Minor Football Atom League. Yorkton travels to Regina’s Liebel Field next Saturday, September 14 when they play the Regina Canadians at 10:30 a.m. in one of their final games of the 2013 season with an unde-
feated 2013 in their sights. The final regular season game is at home against the Regina Thunderbirds September 21 at 10 a.m. at Century Field. After that the Atom Gridders will await their opponent in their Football Saskatchewan bowl game before finishing off their 2013 season. This year Yorkton is hoping to take that one step further and have the ultimate of winning seasons.
STILL PERFECT. The Yotkton Atom Gridders moved to 4-0 on Saturday, shutting out the Estevan Miners 35-0 in Estevan to move two games away from an undefeated Regina Minor Football season.

But have you noticed the leaves are already changing color, some are starting to shed and soon....... well that’s for another time, lets not rush it. Many of our members have called about the flowers in their pots starting to wilt and die. That has been happening and we are afraid the end of the flowerpot season has come. Very soon the staff at Prairie Harvest Employment will be picking up our pots and taking them back to Young’s Plant World. At Young’s they remove the plants, recycle the dirt and add more to it for next season. They then store the over 300 YBID FLOWER POTS for next year. Thanks to all. The next item we have to mention to our members once again is PARKING! The idea behind the 2 hour parking was to allow for the movement of your customers and clients freely around the YBID Downtown area. Every once in a while your staff seem to occupy those stalls for long periods of time while working. There really are a lot of parking places in the downtown. They may not be right outside your door but again that’s for CUSTOMERS. So if you’re a business owner, or a concerned staff member, at your next staff meeting please please, please, remind your staff to park in one of the parking lots and not on the street. Your efforts in this are really needed and very much appreciated by the YBID.
