FLYERSSREDA’s reports economic impact to RMBy HILARY [email protected] To promote their cause and attract the right peo-ple around the table, the Saskatoon Regional Eco-nomic Develompent Asso-ciation (SREDA) began to measure the impact of their work last year. The results are potentially valuable to key local players, and to in-ternational ones as well, says CEO Alex Fallon. Saskatoon berries from the local region made it onto the menu at Gordon Ram-say’s restaurant in London, thanks to SREDA. It was the result of a trade investment mission to the UK in Febru-ary. That mildly juicy bit of news was part of Fallon’s update to the RM council at their May 16 council meet-

ing. Fallon said SREDA also played a key role in getting “Skip the Dishes” to stay in Saskatoon, when they were considering the U.S. In dollars, SREDA had tar-geted an economic impact of their work of $64 million, and a return on investment (ROI) of 35:1. They managed to exceed their target. Fal-lon reported $68.6 million in economic impact and a ROI of $39 for every dollar in-vested in SREDA. Calcula-tions include some econom-ic multipliers. “One job in manufacturing creates two jobs in the economy,” said Fallon. Tracking economic impact and ROI is the first such ef-fort in SREDA’s history. “In the past it was hard to ex-plain SREDA’s results. This is the first time since SRE-

DA was founded in 1992 that we’ve reported that,” said Fallon. “We want to be open, transparent and show the impact of our work.” Fallon reflected that it was someone around the RM council table at his last update in December 2014 who had suggested SREDA change their logo. “That be-came part of the rebrand-ing we’ve gone through over the last eight months or so. If you remember, the previ-ous logo was very much just Saskatoon.” The new logo emphasizes the importance of the regional aspect of SREDA, and symbolizes one of its goals to ensure it re-mains a regional authority. As more evidence of the progress the organization has made, Fallon noted they were able to bring back both

Martensville and Warman as members of SREDA. “This is good news to have that full suite of SREDA players back at the table.” SREDA has an economic dashboard on their website which includes an economic rating every quarter. Even though the region has come through a slower year, SRE-DA is still forecasting about 1.5 per cent growth in GDP. “We’re not doing as bad as you might think,” he said. Council received the in-formation, put questions to Fallon, and then took some time to, ‘blow their own horn.’ Reeve Harwood and Councilor Fox spoke of the amenities and lifestyle op-portunities living in the RM. “Not everyone wants to live on a 1/7 of an acre city lot,” said Fox.

Just after midnight on Sat-urday, May 21, Saskatoon Fire Department respond-ed to a grass fire west of Saskatoon out Highway

Grass fire west of Saskatoon contained14 and one mile south on Range Road 3065. One engine company, one water tender and two brush trucks were on scene.

The fire was contained and brought under control in approximately one hour and twenty minutes. There were no exposures or struc-

tures of concern in the path or vicinity of the fire. There were no injuries caused by this incident. The cause is undetermined.

academic standards high despite funding challenges

by terrY [email protected] Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) stu-dents are above the provincial average in academic achievements and graduation rates, even though the school division is fac-ing financial challenges. PSSD Board of Education Chair Lar-ry Pavloff told the school division’s annual meeting of electors in Martensville on Tues-day, May 17 that the positive results com-ing out of the classroom are largely due to the efforts of teachers and administrators at each school. A revamping of roles and responsibilities of school division staff over the past year, combined with $4.6 million in reductions for its 2014-15 budget, have prompted the school division to take a fresh look at how schools can achieve their goal of helping students learn, according to Pavloff. At the PSSD meeting, Principals from Martensville High School, Rosthern High School, Dalmeny High School and Venture Heights School in Martensville provided ex-amples of how teachers are collaborating and learning from one another in an effort to facilitate student learning. “The staff and administration have been exceptional in the way they have provided service in a different way,” said Pavloff in an interview following the meeting. “The focus on ‘adult learning’ among teachers, with the help of the learning facilitators in those schools, is effective, and it’s saving us some money as well.”

Pavloff said the last few years have been difficult as the PSSD board has wrestled with increasing enrolments. Total K-12 enrolment in PSSD’s 45 schools has grown from 9,883 in 2012-13 to 10,395 in 2014-15, according to the school division’s annual report. Pavloff said he’s optimistic the next pro-vincial budget will see additional resources directed toward education. “We’re hoping that the budget, set to be re-leased on June 1, will give us some breath-ing room,” said Pavloff. “We’ve made some

real serious changes in the last couple of years, and we’ve made a lot of cuts in some areas. “But luckily, student academic achieve-ment and student graduation rates haven’t been negatively affected. “So if we can get to the point where we can stabilize where we’re at right now, then I think we’ll be okay.” But if the school division has to make any serious cuts, Pavloff said he “can’t predict” what will happen.” Pavloff said the partnership with the

Greater Saskatoon Catholic School (GSCS) division in Warman and Martensville is a new experience for both school divisions. “We’ve worked well with partners in the past,” said Pavloff. “And of course we’ll come to a partnership agreement with re-gard to the new joint-use schools in both cit-ies before those schools open. “Do we agree on everything? Absolute-ly not. But we will do what is best for the students and parents and we will reach an agreement. Absolutely.” Pavloff said the details about which grade levels will be in the new PSSD schools, and whether there will be transportation bound-aries for public school students, are still not fully answered. “Ultimately, it’s the parents that will de-cide what is best for their kids and they’ll make the choice as to where to send their kids,” said Pavloff. “It’s our job to provide the best educational opportunities for those students in our schools.” Pavloff said parents with questions about the new schools are welcome to contact the PSSD office in Warman.

SPOTLIGHT ON RENOVATED SCHOOL The PSSD meeting provided an opportu-nity for Martensville High School (MHS) to showcase its state-of-the-art theatre. The theatre is just one part of a facility that everyone at the school takes pride in, said MHS Principal Brad Nichol.

MHS ‘On The Move’ as school year winds down

Continued from page 3

“This new school reflects the new vision for teaching and learning,” said Nichol, adding students, staff and teachers all contributed to a book of reflections entitled “On the Move”, which is also the school’s theme for the year. Renovations are current-ly underway on the school’s industrial arts classroom wing and should be com-pleted by fall. Work on the rest of the old part of the school will begin this sum-mer and is expected to take about a year. Ralph Epp, Principal of Rosthern High School, said

over the past year, students, staff and community mem-bers contributed stories on why the school is flourish-ing. “One thing I picked up through this process is that it’s the relationships among the staff that allows schools to flourish,” said Epp. “If ev-eryone trusts and respects each other and if they col-laborate with each other, it’s amazing the positive im-pact that will have on them personally and professional-ly. “It’s also amazing what kind of an impact that has on the students.”

Dalmeny High School principal Andrew Merryweather (left) and DHS teacher Stephen Kowalchuk explain the school’s new approach to evaluating students’

grasp of basic concepts in various subjects during the PSSD annual meeting May 17

BRENDA ERICKSON, PRAIRIE SPIRIT SCHOOL DIVISION

Andrew Merryweather, Principal of Dalmeny High School, and science teach-er Stephen Kowalchuk out-lined how their school changed the criteria for in-terpreting how well stu-dents understand basic con-cepts in each discipline. As a result, students who had difficulty with certain sub-jects were given extra help. Ron Biberdorf, Principal of Venture Heights School and Julie Kobussen, the school’s learning facilitator, showed how teachers from different grades benefited from partnering with each other and sharing ideas.

One person was tak-en to hospital with unde-termined injuries follow-ing a two-vehicle collision on Highway 219 south of Saskatoon on Thursday, May 19. The incident happened at about 11:20 p.m., accord-ing to Saskatoon Fire De-partment Acting Battalion Chief - Operations Bill Ri-ley. “Two vehicles were in-volved in a collision on

One injured in Highway 219 crashHighway 219 near Victor Road,” stated Riley in a news release. “One of the vehicles rolled over and came to a halt on its side in the ditch. One Engine com-pany and one Heavy Rescue Unit responded. The driv-er had managed to exit the vehicle on his own but the second occupant required extrication by fire crews.” Riley said once the vehi-cle was “stabilized and de-energized,”by rescue per-

sonnel, hydraulic spreaders and cutting tools were used to access and free the pas-senger. The drivers of both vehi-cles were uninjured. The passenger requiring extri-cation by fire crews had undetermined injuries. Saskatoon RCMP were on scene to investigate. Riley is reminding the public to drive safe and use extra caution if travelling on the highway at night.

Homeowners in Saskatch-ewan could see their elec-tricity and natural gas bills rise by an average of $4.30 a month this year. SaskPower and SaskEner-gy are applying to the Sas-katchewan Rate Review Panel (SRRP) in two sepa-rate applications to adjust their rates. The simultaneous appli-cations will allow custom-ers the opportunity to bud-get for utility bills going forward, according to the crown-owned utilities. SaskPower is requesting a rate increase of five per cent effective July 1, 2016 and

five per cent effective Jan. 1, 2017. The average residential customer will pay an addi-tional $6 per month in 2016 and $6 per month in 2017 on their electricity bills, if the increases are approved. SaskEnergy is proposing an adjustment to both its Commodity and Delivery Service rates, resulting in residential customers sav-ing approximately $1.70 per month on their heating bill beginning Nov. 1, 2016. SaskEnergy has applied to reduce its Commodity Rate by 14 per cent from $4.30/Gigajoule (GJ) to $3.65/GJ,

Panel to decide if power, natural gas rates change

the lowest rate in 16 years. The Commodity Rate was last decreased by 54 cents per GJ on Jan. 1, 2016 fol-lowing a steady decline in natural gas prices. SaskEn-ergy is simultaneously ap-plying for a Delivery Service Rate increase of 8.6 per cent, or approximately $3.50 per month for residential cus-tomers, which is offset by Commodity savings. Overall, the typical SaskEnergy residential cus-tomer will see annual sav-ings of $20 and small to large commercial customers will see decreases ranging from $180 to $3,000.

SUBSCRIPTIONS

The Clark’s Crossing Gazette welcomes the submission of news stories, photos, letters or any other information that would be of interest to the readers of this newspaper.NEWS OR SPORTS STORIESIf you or someone you know has been involved in an event you think is newsworthy, please include your name and contact information (either a daytime telephone number and/or email address). Please send the information in a timely manner following the event and remember to include as much pertinent information as possible, in-cluding the following: 1. WHO was involved? 2. WHAT was the event? 3. WHEN and WHERE did the event occur? 4. WHY was the event important?PHOTO GUIDELINES & TIPSAll the information that goes with a news story should also accompany photo(s) as above. Include the names of all the people in each photo and identify from left to right and from back to front. 1. Set your camera to the highest resolution possible. The more resolution, the better the final outcome of the photo in print. 2. Don’t be shy! Get close to your subject(s). Most photos taken with a built-in zoom lens extended will produce “grainy” images that do not reproduce well. 3. Attempt to get dynamic photos of something happening instead of just a quick snapshot. 4. “Presentation” photos typically don’t work well if there are too many people side-by-side in the frame. If there are many people in the photo, have them as close together as possible and, if needed, have the front row seated and the back row standing. 5. Remember taking a picture facing into the sun or bright light will produce poor quality images.

NEWS & PHOTO SUBMISSION TIPS

You wouldn’t know it from the Saskatchewan Party’s throne speech. Much like his low-key March re-election campaign, Premier Brad Wall’s throne speech downplayed the un-pleasantness and accentuat-ed the positives. “In 2015, Saskatchewan’s agri-food exporters reached nearly $15.3 billion, sur-passing my government’s Growth Plan target of $14 billion exports by 2020,” Lt.-Gov. Vaughn Solomon read from the throne speech de-livered last Tuesday. The speech further high-lighted other positive hap-penings: a $25-million ex-pansion by Edgewood Forest Products of Carrot River; $800 million by Crescent Point Energy; $1 billion by Husky Energy in thermal projects; $10 million by Weil Group in a helium facility near Mankota; $50 million in enhanced oil recovery by RII near Lloydminster; $4.1 billion by K+S Legacy Mine, and $20 million by BHP Bil-liton for carbon capture and storage. The address opening the 28th Saskatchewan Legis-lature also noted the prov-ince’s population grew by 150,000 people from Jan. 1, 2006 to Jan. 1, 2016; a stark

contrast to the nearly 24,000 people that left Saskatch-ewan between Jan. 1, 1996 and Jan. 1, 2006. By such measures, one might conclude that things have never been better in Saskatchewan; especially in rural Saskatchewan where most of the aforementioned economic activity seems to be taking place. Yet statisticians, your neighbours and even Brad Wall, himself, all seem to be telling you a very different story of late. According to Statistics Canada numbers, Saskatche-wan’s Gross Domestic Prod-uct (GDP) contracted by 1.5 per cent in 2015. Moreover, it is only expect-ed to grow by .5 per cent this year. These numbers suggest that, at best, the Saskatch-ewan economy is barely emerging from a recession. And if one remains uncon-vinced of that, one need look no further than recent em-ployment numbers that show a shrinking workforce and

an increasing unemploy-ment roll where most areas in this province do not qual-ify for the unemployment benefit extensions offered by the federal government in its own March budget. In fact, it’s not only why Wall’s throne speech had lit-tle to say but also why the Sask. Party’s election cam-paign was so low-key. “We didn’t make a lot of election promises,” Wall said in a prepared statement last week, acknowledging that Saskatchewan can’t afford much right now. That said, Wall vowed to keep “one significant” prom-ise: “to keep Saskatchewan strong.” He further added that means a three-fold approach of keeping the economy, the province’s finances and Sas-katchewan’s place in this country strong. His problem, however, is that there seems little in his throne speech that will help accomplish that. Admittedly, it is always a mistake to forget about the good things happening in the province while overplay-ing the controversies. Heaven knows, a lot of ink has been spilled over the Global Transportation Hub (GTH) and other over-spend-

ing related to the Regina by-pass. While important, they do not solely define what’s going on in the economy that’s impacting people. That said, what is being accomplished is minute com-pared to the negative impact of the oil sector downturn. This was something last week’s Saskatchewan throne speech clearly acknowledged when it spoke of those who “would shut down major parts of the Saskatchewan economy and put thousands of hard-working Saskatch-ewan people out of work ... all in the name of some mis-guided dogma that has no basis in reality.” This serious concern re-garding a decline in oil reve-nue for whatever reason has been acknowledged by Wall in another way: his talk of the need for “transforma-tive change” in government spending. Last week that extended to talk of province-wide educa-tion and health boards and the need for a “risk anal-ysis” of SaskTel that now stands as small, isolated car-rier. The re-elected Sask. Par-ty has much to deal with. Unfortunately, the throne speech wasn’t much of a start.

The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is calling on the federal government to dump the 1.5 cent per litre defi-cit elimination tax as part of its 18th annual Gas Tax Honesty Day. The federal government imposed the 1.5 cent fuel tax to deal with the deficit in 1995. Since then, two deficits have been slain and we’re back into deficit again, but the tax remains. It’s clear the federal government is addicted to fuel tax revenues, otherwise this deficit elimination tax would have been gone years ago. The $12.6 billion that has been collected to pay this tax should be put back in the pockets of overtaxed drivers. The fuel tax for the deficit has cost Canadians $12.6 billion since 1995 and this year it will cost Canadians $618.5 million. Jean Chretien balanced the budget in the 1997-98 fis-cal year, but the fuel tax hike stayed. Stephen Harp-er balanced the budget again in the 2014-15 fiscal year, but again, the fuel tax stayed. Now Justin Trudeau is running a deficit of about $29 billion and projecting deficits for the foreseeable future. Canada’s debt is more than $620 billion – that’s $17,281 per Canadian. Interest charges on the debt are more than $26 billion each year. Canada’s debt is now going up by an average of nearly $81 million every day. Ottawa raised our fuel taxes because of the deficit and then slay the deficit, not once, but twice, and now it’s plunging us back into deficit again. Obviously rais-ing taxes didn’t solve the problem – the government needs to control spending. Otherwise our kids and grandkids will still be pay-ing these taxes decades from now.

Closing 3052 access at Wanuskewin intersection

will improve safetyBy TERRY PUGH

[email protected] The decision by the provincial Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure to close access to Range Road 3052 on the north side of Highway 11 at the Wanuskewin Road intersection is a good one. The closure is set to take effect June 1. After that date, traffic will only be able to access the North Corman Industrial Park area by using Township Road 382 further north on Highway 11. Traffic looking to ac-cess the East Cory Industrial Park will be able to use Township Road 380 from Highway 12. These changes may add a few extra kilometers onto a motorist’s route, but they make a lot of sense because they increase safety for everyone. The intersection at Highway 11 and Wwanuskewin Road is one of the busiest in the region, if not the en-tire province, and has been the scene of countless col-lisions over the years; several of them fatal. The prob-lem with the intersection is that at peak times, the lineup of vehicles on Highway 11 looking to turn south into Saskatoon is long, and it blocks the vision of driv-ers trying to cross two lanes. Eliminating north-bound cross-traffic at the Wanuskewin intersection is a common-sense, short-term solution until an overpass is built.

WHAT LURKS BELOW?Goldfish make great pets, but they can pose a big threat to the environmentBy TERRY [email protected] Take a stroll over the bridge on Lakeridge Drive in Warman on a warm sum-mer day, and you may no-tice some super-size goldfish swimming just below the surface of the water, their bright colours shimmering brightly in the sun. “They’re quite beautiful,” said Warman Recreation and Community Servic-es Manger Paul McGon-gial. “But they’re also a po-tentially big problem for the environment if they ever make their way through the drainage system into the South Saskatchewan River. “Goldfish are a type of carp, and they’re considered an invasive species. They have no natural predators, and they can take over an environment by pushing na-tive species from their natu-ral habitat.” The city is taking steps to ensure the goldfish stay confined to the storm wa-ter reservoirs inside the mu-nicipal boundaries by put-ting screens on the drainage outlets, said McGonigal. Because the storm ponds are artificial lakes, no na-tive species of fish were dis-placed from those water bodies. As long as the gold-

fish stay put, they’re fine. “Other than putting in the screens and posting signs to educate the public about the risks of dumping gold-fish, we’re not planning any other action to get rid of the fish population,” said McGonigal. “We’re working with the provincial Minis-try of Environment and fol-lowing their recommenda-tions.” The fish have been in that lake for about ten years now, said McGonigal. No-body really knows how they got there, but the most likely source is from people dump-ing their small aquarium pets into the lake. “What happened was prob-ably somebody was going on holiday or moving or just got tired of their fish, and they decided it would be kinder to release them into

the environment, so they simply dumped the aquar-ium into the storm pond,” said McGonigal. “It only takes a few fish to start a population, because what happens is goldfish are a very hardy, adaptable type of fish. “If you keep them con-fined to a small aquarium, they’ll stay small. But if you release them into a bigger environment, like a pond or a lake, they’ll thrive and grow to quite a large size be-cause there are no predators to keep them in check. “They’re also able to sur-vive the winters because their metabolism slows down and they can live for a long time under the ice. The ponds are about two and a half meters deep on average, and the ice generally doesn’t freeze right to the bottom.”

McGonigal said until last year, the goldfish weren’t considered to be a problem. “Every spring, we would see dead goldfish wash up on the shoreline after the ice retreated,” said McGonigal.

“We just cleaned them up as part of our regular park maintenance. We knew they were there. Kids like to try and net them along the shoreline. They were just part of the scenery.”

But last year the issue “kind of came to the fore-front” when reports of bur-geoning goldfish popula-tions moving into natural

By TERRY [email protected] A portion of Centennial Drive North in Martensville will be closed off for one day to accommodate one of the city’s most popular show and shine car shows. Martensville City Council voted at its regular meeting on Tuesday, May 10 to ap-prove a request to close off one lane of the street. The show and shine is held in conjunction with the A&W 100 Race at the Wyant Group Raceway, scheduled for Sat-urday, September 10. Martensville City Manag-er Scott Blevins told coun-cil that the event is always well-attended, but there have been “some challeng-es with blocking off lanes on Centennial Drive be-cause of the development of new businesses.” The coun-cil is in favour of the event, and the city administration along with the Lions Club and A&W are looking at us-ing other spaces, such as parking lots, to accommo-date the vehicles in future years.

NEW TAVERN APPROVAL City council has rubber stamped a new neighbour-hood tavern specializing in craft beer. A discretionary use application for the tav-ern, Growler’s Tap House, was approved at the coun-cil’s May 10 meeting. The tavern, which will also serve food, is being devel-oped at 301 Centennial Drive North, in the same building as the Corner Store. The 23-seat tavern will serve spe-ciality or craft draught beer and ciders. Owner Kevin Ber said the tavern is de-signed to supply a venue for beer enthusiasts and cre-ate a social atmosphere for those interested in Canadi-an and international craft beer. The tavern’s hours will be from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.

Tuesday to Thursday and 11 am to 12 midnight on Fri-day and Saturday. It will be closed Sundays and Mon-days.

CATHOLIC KINDERGARTEN STARTING THIS FALL Saskatoon Greater Catho-lic Schools has entered into a lease agreement with the City of Martensville to oper-ate a kindergarten program this fall. Martensville City Council approved the lease agreement at its May 10 reg-ular meeting. Under the terms of the one-year lease, the SGCS will lease two rooms in the Martensville Civic Centre beginning this fall for kin-dergarten classes in the 2016-17 school year. The kin-dergarten program will move to the new joint-use school currently under con-struction in the Lake Vis-ta neighbourhood when it opens in the fall of 2017. Rooms 12 and 13 of the Civic Centre, which have been used for storage by the city for several years, will be renovated by GSCS at the school division’s expense to accommodate the kindergar-ten program.

MARTENSVILLE EXTENDS P4G MEMBERSHIP The City of Martensville has agreed to extend its membership in the Partner-ship for Growth (P4G) re-gional planning group for another year. At its May 10 meeting, city council voted to pay $38,350 to cover the municipality’s share of the overall $183,050 addition-al cost required to allow the P4G to pay for the comple-tion of the regional growth plan. The original comple-tion date for the regional growth plan, being prepared by O2 Planning + Design Inc., was June, 2016. Howev-er, the new completion tar-get date is April, 2017.

Warman seniors residence on target for fall openingBy TERRY [email protected] A $16.2 million, 72-unit se-niors assisted living com-plex in Warman is on track to open its doors this fall, according to Jim Wiebe, ad-ministrator of the Warman Mennonite Special Care Home (WMSCH). The North View Menno-nite Haven began construc-tion in the summer of 2014 as a much-needed addition to the WMSCH. Designed to provide ac-commodation and graduated care to residents as they age and their health care needs change, the project includes a total of 72 independent-liv-ing apartments. Fifty suites are rental units for single people, while 32 others are larger units designed for couples. A portion of the sin-gle suite units have subsi-dized rental rates and are being built in partnership with SaskHousing. The larger suites are be-ing sold as “life lease” units for $200,000 each; with lease-holders entitled to move into the existing, adjacent care home when their require-ments change. So far, 23 of the 32 life-lease suites have been sold. Interest in the re-maining suites has been strong, and Wiebe expects them to sell quickly once the building opens sometime in September or October.

Workers are currently completing the interior dry-wall, electrical, heating and ventilation systems. The project was initiat-ed because there is a “huge need” for seniors accommo-dation, and that need is go-ing to increase in the years to come, said Wiebe. Two relatively mild win-ters in a row have helped construction crews stay on track, according to Hen-ry Janzen, owner of Janzen Steel Buildings, the general contractor for the project. “There’s been no major glitches,” said Janzen. “I’m actually quite impressed. I’d always like to have it done faster, of course, but

Walkathon funds to go toward WMSCH operating costsBy TERRY [email protected] The WMSCH, originally established in 1968 and ex-panded in 2002 and 2006, operates under the joint umbrella of the Bergthaler Mennonite Church in Warman and the Old Col-ony Mennonite Church in Neuanlage. A Board of Di-rectors made up of rep-resentatives from both churches oversees the op-

eration. The WMSCH is a non-profit, charitable or-ganization affiliated with the Saskatoon Health Re-gion (SHR). While the SHR provides an annual grant to help cover the cost of special-care residents, the WMSCH relies primar-ily on funding from the churches and community. One of the WMSCH’s big-gest fundraisers is its an-nual walkathon, in which

supporters contribute be-tween $10,000 and $30,000. This year’s walkathon is scheduled for the morning of Saturday, May 28. Funds from this year’s event will be used to help cover op-erating costs in the care home, said Wiebe. “The care home has had difficulty running on the funding that it’s been re-ceiving from the health re-gion,” he said. “Our costs

are going up, but our fund-ing hasn’t kept pace with that, and our residents’ needs are getting high-er. They’re coming in with greater care needs and it’s getting more dificult to meet those needs.” Wiebe said he can appre-ciate the SHR is in a defi-cit position itself, and noted that provincial and feder-al funding for health care needs to be increased.

ZACH MCGRATH When three-year- old Zach McGrath discovered he was too short to reach the DVD player, he climbed the dresser to reach the controls and the TV collapsed on him.

“The kids were screaming and I could tell by their faces it was really bad,” said Rhonda Samoleski, Zach’s mother, who called 911 when she found her son buried under a TV and dresser.

The local fire department was first on scene, followed by paramedics — who knew Zach needed immediate critical care and called STARS.

“Everyone worked together to help save Zach but if STARS wasn’t there for us it could have been very different,” said Rhonda. “It’s still hard to believe we have a happy ending.”

realistically, it’s going well. I’m happy with the working relationship we have with the WMSCH board.” Janzen said this project is very important to him personally. As a pastor in the Bergthaler Mennonite Church in Warman, he sees the growing need for quality accommodations for seniors as a priority. “It’s not just people in our congregation, but the entire community,” said Janzen. “With a project like this, we can help a lot of people, and that’s the bottom line: help-ing people.” The project was kick-start-ed by the sale of 20 life lease units in 2014, with the re-maining costs covered through a 25-year mortgage with Affinity Credit Union. The new addition will not only provide independent living accommodation for new residents, but also en-hance the operations of the existing care home, said Wiebe. A larger and more effi-cient kitchen will allow staff

to prepare meals for resi-dents of both the care home and the independent living suites. A brightly-lit cen-tral dining room in the new wing overlooks a courtyard garden area. The expansion also in-cludes administration of-fices, enhanced laundry fa-cilities, a hairdressing and spa bath salon, recreational, storage and meeting rooms and a classroom that dou-bles as a theatre. The centrepiece of the new addition is a large chapel area, with a second-storey interior balcony. The room will be used for the ongoing twice-weekly church servic-es as well as being available for rental by families and outside organizations, said Wiebe. Both the east and west wings of the expansion fea-ture wide corridors that can accommodate scooters and wheelchairs, as well as nu-merous reading and com-mon areas that facilitate socializing among the resi-dents, said Wiebe.

A major traffic artery in Martensville is set to un-dergo a much-needed face-lift this summer. The 4th Street South Re-habilitation Project is slat-ed to get underway on Mon-day, May 30, and that means there will be some road closures and parking restrictions in effect during the construction period. According to city offi-cials, the project involves the closure of the portion of 4th Street South between 3rd Avenue South and 6th Avenue South, and the in-tersection of 4th Street South and 6th Avenue South. The rehabilitation project is expected to last approxi-mately four weeks, barring unforeseen circumstances and inclement weather. Martensville residents who live in homes that front the construction area are asked to park on their

properties using back lane access where possible. Where there is no parking available through back lane access, residents should park further east and west of the construction area on 4th Street South, and on 3rd Avenue South and 6th Ave-nue South. Residents are also re-minded that parking in the back lane is restrict-ed. Back lanes must remain unobstructed as the lanes will serve as the primary access for residents, main-tenance vehicles, and emer-gency vehicles. Garbage collection in the construc-tion area will be temporar-ily moved to the nearest adjacent avenues (3rd Ave South and 6th Ave South). Property owners are also asked to be mindful of the amount of water used to water lawns and wash ve-hicles as water runoff from properties to the construc-

Upgrades to 4th St. South startingtion site could result in con-struction delays. Finally, to ensure public and worker safety, all resi-dents are reminded to stay clear of the construction site, and to obey all road barricades and posted sig-nage around the construc-tion site. The majority of the work will take place Monday to Saturday between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m., however the contrac-tor for this project, Prai-rie Paving Inc., may ex-tend working hours to 10:00 p.m., which is in line with the City of Martensville Noise Bylaw.

The Purina Walk for Dog Guides wants to make more life-changing matches possi-ble for Canadians with dis-abilities, and on May 29, Martensville is hosting one of more than 200 walks tak-ing place across the country this spring. “Dog Guides make the world more accessible for their handlers, whether it’s by navigating city sidewalks or by literally opening a door,” said Martensville res-ident Doug Ward, who is planning the local event. “This walk is a way for our

community to contribute to a cross-Canada success sto-ry.” The walk is set for Sun-day, May 29 at Kinsmen Park in Martensville. Reg-istration is at 2 p.m. and the walk begins at 3 p.m. The annual walk raises funds for Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides, a na-tional charity which breeds, trains, and matches service dogs with qualifying appli-cants. The walk in Martens-ville is being hosted by Mar-tensville & District Lions Club where Ward is a mem-

ber. The Purina Walk for Dog Guides has gained steady momentum over the past 30 years, last year raising more than $1,195,000 nation-ally. Thanks to lead sponsor Nestle Purina Pet Care, 100 per cent of funds raised go directly to Dog Guide pro-grams, offsetting the cost of breeding, training and plac-ing Dog Guides, and allow-ing the organization to pro-vide them at no cost. The walk is a family and dog-friendly event, suitable for all ages and abilities.

Street paving proposal creates controversy in DalmenyBy HILARY [email protected] They won’t be paving the streets with gold in Dalmeny. But to some, it might feel that way. A proposed street im-provement project in the community comes with a hefty price tag, according to residents. Many packed into the J J Loewen Community Centre for a public meeting on May 17, thanks to some street-level mobilization, Mayor Nick Bakker agreed. “Street improve-ment is incredibly costly and you can see the state of some of the streets – they’re pretty deplorable,” he said in a conversation before the meeting. Bakker recalled that in previous street improve-ment projects, the town paid 33 per cent of the total bill and residents paid 67 per cent. The current proposal for the new project uses the same percentages. In their notice about proposed lo-cal improvements published in Clark’s Crossing Gazette, council has the town paying $560,399.72 while homeown-ers pay $1,137,753.95 of the total cost of $1,698,153.67. Bakker said he was unpre-

pared for the amounts. “When I saw the numbers it was a shock to me. I’ve lived in town pretty well 30 years and was involved in the two other projects. They were costly at the time but nowhere near this,” Bakker said. Bakker said council is open to ideas if the proposal gets petitioned out. He sug-gested the cost-sharing ratio might need to be looked at. “We need a more equitable system than what we have now. But we need to deter-mine a formula because the former councilors never did that.” When residents got the news in early May, they also had ‘sticker shock’, accord-ing to Wade Klassen, who spoke on behalf of the group at the meeting. He present-ed a map detailing the loca-tion and frontage of proper-ties affected. Lots on Prairie Street, for example, run up to 65 and 70 feet wide, net-ting property owners an av-erage bill of around $20,000, at a rate of $871.34 per me-tre. Several were north of $30,000. The town has proposed a seven-year payment plan. A homeowner with a $21,286

paving bill would end up paying $27,643 after seven years is up when interest is factored in. Klassen stressed that res-idents definitely want the paving, but are looking for ways to reduce or distribute the cost. A common theme from some of the dozen or so community speakers was that infrastructure costs should be shared by all res-idents, not simply those whose streets will be paved. Improvement zones in-clude high-traffic streets that access the elementa-ry school, the arena and the community centre. Gil Klassen, who lives near the arena, said 75 per cent of traffic on his street is head-ed that way, suggesting a more equitable approach that reflects usage is need-ed. Bakker told the gathering they have the right to peti-tion against the proposal. “If it gets petitioned out, that’s fine, that’s part of the pro-cess, because all this is, is a proposal.” Residents had al-ready begun a petition with some help from Alicia An-derson. Klassen said residents don’t believe this is an is-

sue the council alone can solve. “We think this is a community wide issue. We have a real opportunity here to work together to find the best solution as a commu-nity.” Most of the residents who came to the mike said they love living in Dalmeny and don’t want that lifestyle jeopardized by high taxes.

Dalmeny residents line up after a public meeting on Tuesday, May 17 to sign a petition against town council’s paving proposal

HILARY KLASSEN | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

The ‘state-of-the-union’ type meeting held a full agenda, beginning with up-dates on the Coop gas bar, Dalmeny’s new logo, and up-coming development. Fol-lowing the street-paving fo-rum, about a third of the crowd remained for rest of the meeting to discuss a substantial list of additional

agenda items. As people left, a line-up formed to sign the petition opposing the pro-posal as it stands. While everybody wants the street improvements, it remains to be seen what costing solutions may be forthcoming that hold ap-peal for both town council and residents.


Hello from Mayor and Council, The City of Warman’s Annual Open House was held on Thursday, May 12, 2016. With 400 visitors attending the event, it was a great opportunity to hear the many

comments, ideas, and questions that our residents had to share. Of course, the hot topic of the event was the discussion of an aquatic centre for the community. I want to thank our team at the City of Warman for sharing information about what the implications would be for our community if it was decided that the City would move forward in building an aquatic centre. The information provided along with the feedback from residents, brings us that much closer to understanding how we need to plan for the future. All in all, the Open House was a great day with lots of buzz in the air.

The Warman Fire Rescue hosted the yearly Bike Rodeo at the Warman Fire Hall in May. The event would not have been possible without the many parents, Warman Fire Rescue

volunteers, RCMP members, City of Warman Staff and Council members who were on hand to help share the message of bike safety. In total over 600 Warman Elementary students attended the Bike Rodeo. With some anxious students as well as some very experienced students, all participants were able to navigate through the course and enjoy the day. A big thank you to everyone who made the day such a great success. The City of Warman also received some exciting news at the beginning of May with word that we had been approved for funding by Transport Canada to install flashing light signals and bells at the CN Rail crossings at 6th Avenue as well as at Industrial Road. In addition to this work, the City of Warman will also move forward in building sidewalks along the Industrial Road crossing. It is expected that these projects will be completed by the end of summer. These improvements will be a welcome addition to these crossings and will help improve safety.

Another exciting initiative currently underway in the City of Warman is the development of the Environmental Master Plan. Warman’s Environmental Master Plan is the first of its kind in Saskatchewan,

charting a course for Warman to become a leader in environmental sustainability within the Province. The objective of this Environmental Master Plan is to integrate environmental sustainability principles into Warman’s operations and long-term development planning, helping the community of Warman manage its future growth and development for improved environmental sustainability. Currently, the development of Warman’s Environmental Master Plan is in its infancy. The Environmental Plan development team recently spent a week in Warman completing their initial community and stakeholder outreach consultations. This outreach involved speaking with stakeholders, City staff, and the Mayor, City Council and community members about their environmental priorities for the future of Warman. These consultations also provided the project team with insight to better understand the City’s current environmental and sustainability initiatives, as well as environmental strengths and opportunities. While the Environmental Master Plan will provide fresh

recommendations and actions to incorporate environmental sustainability principles into Warman’s day-to-day operations and long-term development plans, a number of the City’s actions and assets are already firmly rooted in environmental sustainability. For example, Warman’s parks and its golf course are irrigated by non-potable water, collected by storm water retention ponds. While on the surface this may seem like a minor detail in Warman’s municipal operations to some, this approach involving capture and re-use of storm water runoff for irrigation offers vast and multiple benefits for the municipality in areas such as environmental and economic cost savings. The Environmental Master Plan will build on the strengths of this solid environmental sustainability foundation, and work to identify other ways where Warman can improve their municipal operations to provide additional economic and environmental cost savings to the community. For more information about the Environmental Master Plan please visit our webpage or Facebook page! Respectfully submitted, Mayor Sheryl Spence Recreation and Culture Committee Report

Warman’s newest outdoor facility had its Grand Opening on May 14th. The Skate Park was open to the public last September, but due to weather, the official Grand Opening

took place this past weekend with music provided by DJ Kusch, food donated by the Co-op, pop donated by Pepsi and many prizes provided by New Line Skate parks and Nine Times. Nine Times also provided a few pro riders for the event that entertained the spectators with a 30 minute demonstration and then judged the best trick competition. It was a great day, very well attended and showcased a lot of talented young people. As we celebrated the opening of the Skate Park, construction of the Prairie Oasis Park Project continued with plenty of progress taking place on Phase 3. $700,000 has been allocated to the 3rd Phase of the project which will include the construction of a washroom/warm-up area/ice resurface machine room, the continued extension of the asphalt walking paths, park lighting and amenities, 2 softball diamonds, development of the toboggan hill and plenty of vegetation and trees. The project is an estimated 5 year project that will transform the park area at Industrial Road and South Railway Street West, on the south side of Warman into a recreation oasis. Construction started in 2014 with the south west corner of the area which now holds the park play structure and gazebo. In 2015 construction moved to the north west corner with the continuation of the pathways and the recent completion of the skate park. Construction of the area will continue into 2017 and 2018. In 2017 the BMX track is slated to be completed along with a regulation size outdoor rink. Grading, asphalt pathways, park amenities and vegetation will also be completed around the lake area. 2018 will be the final year of construction and the 24 stall RV Park will be the focus of the project, complete with washrooms and showers. The Prairie Oasis Project has been a unique project for the City of Warman as the City has partnered with the Great Plains College and their Heavy Equipment Operators Course. The City has gained four weeks of on-site grading work from the

program and in return the City has supplied the fuel for the equipment, a $10, 000 scholarship to the college for the Heavy Equipment Program and a safe environment to learn in.

waterways started mak-ing the headlines in other parts of the country, said McGonigal. “We started reading up on it, and realized we need to address this issue, and also educate our residents about it,” he said. Jamie Bilash, a species ecologist with the Ministry of Environment, said the fish can pose a problem if they’re not controlled. “They have the potential to get into our native wa-ter bodies,” said Bilash. “These storm water reten-tion ponds have a connec-tion to the river, and if the

goldfish ever make it that far, we could see problems. “Goldfish originated in China. They are very ag-gressive and native fish species are generally un-able to compete with them for food and habitat,” said Bilash. “Goldfish could also introduce and spread diseases and damage the natural habitat for aquatic plants. Once they get into a waterway, they’re diffi-cult to manage and virtual-ly impossible to eradicate.” Warman isn’t the only city where goldfish are a concern. Many large cen-tres in Alberta and Ontario

have been trying to control the burgeoning goldfish populations for years, with limited success. Martensville, meanwhile, is not affected - at least not yet - with the problem. “It’s not a concern here,” said Martensville Recre-ation and Community Ser-vices Director Dave Bosch. “We haven’t seen any pop-ulations of goldfish in our ponds, but we are monitor-ing the situation to stay on top of it.” Bilash said the City of Saskatoon has detected a problem with koi fish, a species originally from Ja-

pan that is similar to gold-fish and are also popular aquarium pets. Saskatoon is working with the provin-cial Environment Ministry to ensure the koi fish don’t escape into the river. Besides the screens on pond drainage outlets, McGonigal noted there are other safeguards built into the system for managing water movement into and out of the storm water res-ervoirs. “The pumps are called shredder pumps, and they slice and dice any for-eign matter that happens to make it that far,” said

McGonigal. “It doesn’t hurt the pump.” He noted that attempts to eradicate the goldfish popu-lations in other cities have not been successful. “Poisoning them or try-ing to freeze them out by dropping the level of the ponds just doesn’t work,” he said. “It can cost thou-sands and thousands of dol-lars, but inevitably, a few fish will always survive, and then it doesn’t take long before you’re right back where you started. The most effective way is to keep them confined. That and ensuring the problem

Goldfish in municipal ponds impossible to eradicateContinued from page 8

doesn’t get worse by adding more fish.” McGonigal said the city is putting up signs this summer urging residents not to dump their goldfish into the reservoirs. “We’re asking peo-ple not to do that,” said McGonigal. “Pets are not meant for the wild. If you don’t want your fish, don’t dump it in the pond. Do-nate it to a pet store, or a school or someone who wants it. When disposing of a dead goldfish or aquar-ium plants, make sure they’re in a plastic bag and placed in the garbage.”

TRAINING EXERCISESMembers of Warman Fire Rescue were at an abandoned farm yard about one kilometre south of Warman on Wednesday night, May 18 during the department’s regular training night. On Saturday morning, May 21, winds kicked up the smouldering ashes causing a second blaze to ignite. Martensville Fire Resuce members were called to “the pits” east of Martensville on Fri-day evening, May 20 to douse a bonfire that was left unattended.

GEM girls matter and they know itBy HILARY [email protected] They sat on bar stools in a semi-circle with heads turned upward, faces hidden behind warm face-cloths. It was the sigh at the end of the school day, one part of a semi-luxurious spa experience to enjoy with friends. They’re GEM girls, increasing-ly aware that Girls Everywhere Matter. They come together once a month to build relationships and build their own self-esteem and confidence in being a girl, says their leader, Kelli White. “Any girl in grade six to 12 is wel-come to come,” said White, a teach-er and learning facilitator at the school. “Sometimes we do special things like going bowling, or at Christmas the girls had a little gift exchange among themselves.” It’s a ‘come when you can’ arrangement and White says, they come. The group talks about what it means to be beautiful and works to dispel the myth of trying to be perfect. White says girls definitely need supports like this. “They are so bombarded in social media. That’s one of the other big things we discuss: digital citizen-ship,” said White. They talk about what they should post and what they should not post. They explore how the media can make you feel like you have to look a certain way or be a certain way. “We deconstruct media messages together,” said White. “It’s a real-ly special group and sometimes the

with your hands. Then, using a spray

bottle filled with water, start spraying as you squeeze the powders to-gether. Eventually the powders will feel moist,

barely wet enough to hold together when you try to make a ball. That’s the tricky part – knowing

and not crumble. Don’t worry - after a

couple of rounds you’ll have the perfect

technique for this.

boys are upset that they can’t be in it.” It’s hard to imagine boys doing the facecloth routine, but there’s a lot to admire about a group like GEM. Their spa was facilitated by Chris Woods of Woods Body Goods in Aberdeen. Woods was thrilled to be invited to do the spa with GEM, and felt it was a great fit with her own priorities. Woods recently published a book with a compilation of hand-made

skincare and body care recipes and tips on how to do your own natural spa. She has given over 300 parties where girls get to make their own products, and felt she had enough material for her book. It was avail-able to GEM for $10. Two students, Mackenzie and Daria, contributed to the book. The girls also learn about the plight of girls in other parts of the world. GEM has a partnership with a group called Little Women for Lit-

tle Women in Afghanistan, which raises funds and awareness for girls’ education in that country. White said the girls keep jour-nals. “We ask them to do some writing, including poetry. Hopeful-ly in a couple of years we’ll have our own little book to publish. That’s the goal.” The identity of the group contin-ues to evolve. But at the core, the sense of belonging the girls feel is the gel that makes it work.

Blackstrap Art Studio Tour focuses on demonstrationsBy HILARY [email protected] Set against natural country landscapes, the Blackstrap Art Studio Tour offers a pre-summer escape from the city for a unique experience of art outside a gallery. More than twenty artists who work within various media and genres will be stationed at five dif-ferent stops. The tour is celebrat-ing its tenth anniversary and fea-tures live demonstrations. The self-drive tour starts at Blue-bird Hills Farm, eight kilometres south of Saskatoon, where Marian Janzen’s acrylic paintings are im-bued with the light of the prairies.

I lost my world,” she said. “I decided I had a choice at that time, to jump in a hole and pull it in after me, or I could invent a new life,” she said. Janzen had been a teacher for 32 years. She went to the Universi-ty of Saskatchewan and got a Certificate of Art & De-sign (USCAD). The program is run by professional work-ing artists but its emphasis is on technique rather than the emotional component of art.

Joining Janzen at her home are two women whose combined skills cover quilt art, water colour and costume design. Irish dancing cos-tumes will be on site. At Muirhead Studios, another eight kilometres south, Elizabeth Muirhead presents landscapes, seascapes and abstracts done in fi-ber art while her architect hus-band, John Cope, has returned to painting with oil, acrylic and ink. The tour stops in Dundurn, where you’ll meet an outdoor sculpture artist, photographer, art restorer, jewelry design-er and quilter and then veers off to Hiebert’s Hot Shop at Shields,

Blackstrap, where the skills of glass artists, a sculptor, painter, potters and a bird carver are on display. Janzen said the art is typical-ly of a high skill level. “My studio is kind of an elitist situation be-cause I paint in my kitchen,” she laughed. Janzen’s paintings have fetched up to a couple thousand dollars while others go for a hun-dred or two. Janzen began painting four years ago after the loss of her hus-band to cancer left her feeling empty. “I needed to paint to save my life because when I lost my husband, ‘Borrowing Freedom’ is by Marian Janzen

By TERRY [email protected] Two Stanley Cup win-ners, a World Series champi-on and a mixed martial arts champion headline the tenth annual Warman Sports Ce-lebrity Dinner and Auction in late August. The tenth annual Warman Sports and Cultur-al Village (WSCV) Sports Celebrity Dinner and Auc-tion features superstar NHL Hall of Famers Paul Cof-fey and Ray Bourque; Blue Jays legend Roberto Alo-mar; and former Ultimate Fight Championship Wom-en’s Bantamweight champi-on Holly Holm. Heather Chatfield, Recre-ation Promotions and Mar-keting Supervisor for the City of Warman, said this year’s lineup of guests is im-pressive. “This is our first year that we have a Female Sports Celebrity attend-ing,” said Chatfield. “We are very much looking for-ward to hearing her speak and learning about success-es and struggles as a female fighter in the UFC.” Popular sports broadcast-er Drew Remenda also re-turns for his tenth year as Master of Ceremonies for the occasion. Remenda’s en-tertaining interview style brings out the best in the athletes who take the stage. The sports celebrity din-ner is a major fundraiser for the City of Warman, with proceeds used to enhance fa-cilities and programming for residents of the area. The annual WSCV Sports Celebrity Dinner & Auction, slated for the Legends Cen-tre on Thursday, August 25, is sponsored by KH Develop-ments, Warman Homes and Warman Home Centre. Paul Coffey is a multiple Stanley cup champion, win-ning hockey’s holy grail four times: three with the Edmonton Oilers and one with the Pittsburgh Pen-guins. He was inducted into the NHL Hall of Fame in 2004. Ray Bourque also has a Stanley Cup ring, which he won as a member of the Col-orado Avalanche in the twi-light of his storied career after many years with the Boston Bruins. He became a member of the NHL Hall of Fame in 2004.

Roberto Alomar won two World Series championships with the Toronto Blue Jays, and was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2011. Holly Holm has been called the greatest female athlete in the history of combat sports. She is a for-mer UFC Women’s Bantam-weight Champion and a mul-tiple-time boxing champion, defending her titles 18 time in three weight classes, and was a two-time Ring Mag-azine fighter of the year in 2005 and 2006. Chatfield said the organiz-ers of the event are still hop-ing to add to the celebrity list. “We also have a few other surprises that we’re keeping under our hat until it’s clos-er to the date,” she said. Chatfield said the city is currently looking for spon-sors for the event. “If you would like to

Bourque, Coffey, Alomar, Holm headline Sports Celebrity Dinner

be a sponsor or be on the list for individual tickets ($200 each) or a table of 8 ($1400) please contact me at [email protected] or call 306-933-1929,” she said, noting the event features both a live and silent auc-tion with a wide range of sports memorabilia. “The best part is that pa-trons can have a one-on-one chat with these legendary sports superstars,” she said. “It’s a tremendous opportu-nity.” The ‘Meet and Greet’ por-tion of the program for the guests with the sports ce-lebrities occurs from 5:30 to 6:30 pm, just before the ca-tered dinner. “We are once again limit-ing guests to only bringing in two items to be signed by our guests,” said Chatfield. “This allows every guest at the event to have a chance to speak with our sports ce-lebrities.”

“We didn’t have to think about what it meant. We were just trying to figure out what the paint does.” From there, Janzen won sev-eral shows including Best of Show at the Saskatoon Ex-hibition. Janzen drew in-cessantly asa young girl, then her talent went un-derground as she got her

teaching degree, working in home economics and inte-rior design. She says it was the right decision. Inspiration lies right out-side her window. Janzen paints mostly landscapes, portraits of animals such as her horses, and humans, as well as abstracts. The Blackstrap Art Studio

Eden Yardscapes a growing business Chad Wiebe and Kyle Friesen of Warman are the go-to guys when it comes to yardwork. Their company, Eden Yard-scapes, is entering its third year of business, and it’s growing as fast as the grass and trees they in-stall for their satisfied customers. “We saw an opportunity out in this area when we started the company from scratch two years ago,” said Kyle. “Both Chad and I worked for other landscaping companies for years, and we just decided to start up our own. It’s something we both really enjoy.” The company specializes in helping their clients create the

perfect yard, right from the ini-tial design to the final installa-tion. Everybody’s yard is different, because people have their own unique ideas about what they want to include. “It’s always cool to see the kind of things people are looking for in their yards,” said Chad. “I really like seeing a yard go from basical-ly nothing to a little piece of par-adise; taking all the ideas the cli-ent has and putting it all together just the way they envisioned it.” The business partners draw on their practical experience to cre-ate attractive yard layouts tai-

lored to the clients’ design and budget. They do the work them-selves, and on larger jobs they’ll bring in additional workers. While it’s a seasonal business, their work begins in March with client consultations and providing price quotes on proj-ects. Once the warm weath-er arrives, it’s full steam ahead until freeze-up, usually in Octo-ber. “It’s a great way to make a living” said Kyle. “We enjoy it. We’re outdoors. We’re working in our home area.And we get a lot of satisfied clients. What could be better?”

By TERRY [email protected] The northern boys rolled over their southern rivals in spectacular fashion on Monday, May 23 in both the 9-man and 6-man Ed Henick Senior Bowl high school football showcase at Saskatoon Minor Football Field. The 9-man northern team, which included 17 area play-ers among the 27-man ros-ter, captured the provincial trophy with a decisive 48-13 victory. The 6-man squad, mean-while, won their game 22-8.

9-MAN DOMINANCE Sam Michnik of Delisle set a new record for the lon-gest rushing touchdown in a provincial Senior Bowl game. He beat the old record of 85 yards set in 1987 ear-ly in the opening quarter of the 9-man game, rambling 90 yards for the major after taking a handoff from quar-terback Graham Beresh of Clavet. Michnik also con-tributed the final touchdown of the game for the north. Warman’s Jaden Towson also had two majors, includ-ing one in the third quarter from quarterback Dominic Froese; while fellow Wolver-ine Jayson Lindo added an-other. But it was the unsung he-roes on the offensive line and in the defensive trench-es that made the big differ-ence. Martensville’s Carter Dyck and Morgan Fournier, along with Warman’s Joel Seiferling and Brandon Mc-Kimmon, kept the south’s of-fense from gaining any trac-tion.

The north team went into half-time with a 20-0 lead, and increased that margin to 40-0 before the south got on the board, scoring two quick touchdowns in succes-sion with about five minutes left in the game. The north scored their final touch-down with two minutes left. “It was a great game,” said North head coach Ken Byers of Delisle. “I’m proud of how the boys trained during the last week. It was amazing how quickly they were able to pick up in a couple days stuff that normally takes weeks.”

DEFENSE THE DIFFERENCE Byers said as good as the north’s offense was, the de-fense made the difference. “We had a lot of turn-overs, and that really took away their momentum,” said Byers. “We had to make some adjustments during the game when they went with five men on the line and that kind of stopped our running game a bit. But we were able to change things up and found a way to get around them.” Joel Seiferling of Warman said the senior bowl was a great way to end his high school football career. “It’s a real honour, and a great experience,” he said. “To play with my high school teammates and also with the guys I’ve played against for years. To be on the same team with them is amazing.” Jesse Ens of Warman echoed that sentiment. “It was a blast,” he said. “These guys are great teammates.” Jaden Towson said he felt

lucky to have been part of a team that had such good chemistry. “When an athlete is hav-ing a good day, you get in the zone, and you feel like nothing can stop you,” he said. “That’s what we were like today. It was fun.”

6-MAN VICTORY In the 6-man game, it was much the same story. Led by quarterbacks Mitch Toews of Watrous and Brendan Paproski of Rosetown, the north team built up a 16-0 lead by half-time. They led 22-0 going into the fourth quarter. The south finally got on the board with two minutes left in the game. Ken Wiebe of Hague made some key tackles for the de-fense, while Dalton Deprez handled kicking duties as well as contributing to the defense. Carter Dahl of Rosthern displayed his explosive speed and accounted for one of the north’s touchdowns. “Everyone worked really hard,” said Clay Kirby, de-fensive coach for the north team. “I feel lucky to have had that many talented play-ers on one team.” Kirby said it was a nice way for Wiebe and Deprez to end their high school foot-ball careers. “The Hague Panthers had a good regular season,” said Kirby. “We were undefeated, and to lose the provincial fi-nal in the fourth quarter in such an unfortunate way was very disappointing. So it’s nice to have these boys end their season on a high note.”

Luke Reid of Warman, Kyle Sopotyk of Aberdeen, Jerzy Orchard of Delisle and Carter Woodside of Asquith were among this year’s crop of bantam-age players draft-ed into the Western Hockey League (WHL). The Warman Minor Hock-ey Association issued a con-gratulatory statement last week, noting that Reid was selected in the 2016 WHL Bantam Draft by the Victo-ria Royals. Reid was selected in the second round, and was drafted 27th overall. Reid has been in the Warman Minor Hockey As-sociation since initiation and this year he played with the ‘AAA’ midget Battleford Stars as an underage ban-tam player. Kyrell Sopotyk played

with the Pee Wee AA Warman Wildcats and for the last two years has been with the Bantam AA Sask Valley Vipers. Sopotyk was selected in the fifth round, 103rd over-all, of the WHL bantam draft by the Kamloops Blaz-ers. Orchard and Woodside also played last season with the Sask Valley Vipers. Orchard was chosen 110th overall by the Kamloops Blazers and Woodside was close behind, drafted 111th overall by the Kootenay Ice. All four players were also selected to the U16 Team Sask squad and are ranked among the top 43 players in the province.

ball championship tourna-ment in Surrey, BC from July 15-24. Gurski, 22, was part of the gold-medal win-ning team last year when they beat the United States 4-2 in extra innings to take the world championship. Canada’s team is hoping to repeat as world champions this year.




Award-winning speed skater training for next seasonBy HILARY [email protected] Daniel Pauli made great strides in speed skating this year, placing second in his age group at the Cana-da West National Champion-ship in Edmonton. The twelve-year-old from Warman has only been speed skating for three years. “He did extremely well all year,” said his mom, April Pauli. “He medaled al-most every single competi-tion he went to.” Daniel has been compet-ing since the end of October including at an annual meet held in Warman at the end of October.

His placement in rac-es in Calgary and Caron-port qualified him for the Canada West Nationals. He earned silver in two dis-tances in the Canada West Games and bronze with his relay team. “All this got him a second place overall in his age group of 12-year male. His times are often better than the 14-year-olds.” Dan-iel was also awarded the John Sands Memorial Tro-phy. April and her husband, Darrell, often run in dif-ferent directions with their kids’ sports. “I have general-ly been the basketball mom for our daughter and Darrell

has been the speed skating dad,” Pauli said. Although it’s an individual sport where the main oppo-nent is the clock, Pauli says Daniel finds it to be more of a team sport than any team sport he has played. The 17-year-old skaters are out there cheering on the five-year-old skaters and vice versa. Daniel is part of the Saskatoon Lions Speed Skat-ing Club. “There’s a lot of good sportsmanship in this sport,” said Pauli. “It takes a lot of volunteers and we have a amazing club.” Skaters benefit from the mentoring of several coach-

es. Tom Comfort is the coach of the Saskatchewan Amateur Speed Skating As-sociation, and is one of Dan-iel’s coaches. “He’s a relatively new skat-er and every time he com-peted this year he got bet-ter, but no one expected he would do as well as he did. Daniel was a ‘pretty good’ skater in their second high-est group and this year they moved him up. By the end of the year he was the second best skater in short track in Western Canada in his age group. “And he was not even on the radar the year be-fore,” said Comfort. He ac-knowledged the club has ex-

cellent coaching, which was a factor. Then there’s the Daniel factor. “There’s just some inner drive in him. He doesn’t like to lose much. He is only 12. There are kids across west-ern Canada that have been skating longer than him and training pretty hard and he beat everybody but one.” Comfort said Daniel previ-ously played hockey and had some success, but he’s likely found the sport he’s good at. “He has some sort of in-nate physical ability be-cause he’s pretty young. He just sort of calls on it when he sees somebody in front of him and he grinds it out and

catches most people,” said Comfort. Next year the Canada West Championships will be held in Saskatoon at the SaskTel Centre. “Daniel would really like to do well so he earns his spot there again. It’s always challeng-ing when you move up an age group,” said Pauli. Comfort said success is fleeting. When the season ends you have to start work-ing again. Daniel is current-ly doing a lot of dry land training – biking, running, and a bit of weight lifting - to stay in shape, and waiting for the day when he can pull on his skates again.

This included Grade 11 Warman High School stu-dent, Danica Fast. “Seeing people driving through the fire with flames so close it would be a very scary situation to be in. To have to be away from their homes for weeks taking only what they could pack in minutes would be very tough and that doesn’t even cover the feelings of the peo-ple who lost their homes and belongings to the fire,”Fast shared.“I wanted to do something to help and thought if I

could organize a steak night with proceeds going to the Red Cross that would be the best plan” Arrangements were made for the use of the Warman High School gym and local country artist Codie Prevost agreed to provide the enter-tainment. Businesses were contacted for donations and silent auction items. “My goal is to sell 300 tick-ets but I still have a lot to sell to meet that goal.” The Fort McMurray Steak Night Fundraiser with spe-cial guest Codie Prevost is 6 p.m. Saturday, June 4, with show starting at 7:30 p.m. includes a silent auction and 50/50 draw.

CAPRICORN December 22– January 19Speak your mind because if you don’t, others are not go-ing to advocate for your needs. That’s why it’s important for you to fight for every cause, no matter how small. AQUARIUS January 20– February 18Aquarius, work may be getting on your nerves, but you have to maintain a professional demeanor at all times. It can be challenging, but you will handle it.

PISCES February 19– March 20Pisces, a few days away from the daily grind will help you recharge your batteries. Turn off your phone and enjoy the well-deserved respite.

ARIES March 21– April 19Aries, expect to be very busy in the days ahead. Make a concerted effort to be more aware of what’s around you so that you don’t miss a thing.

TAURUS April 20– May 20Taurus, financial questions keep popping up and you just keep pushing them aside for later. If need be, work with a professional to establish your goals.

GEMINI May 21– June 21Do something out of your comfort zone this week, Gemini. When you do so, you may find out you have a wider array of interests than you first believed.

CANCER June 22– July 22Cancer, just when you think you’ve figured out how to play the game, they go and change all of the rules on you. Adaptability is one of your biggest strengths.

LEO July 23– August 22It’s time to make your love life a priority, Leo. If you’re in a relationship, you may find it needs a little nurturing to get it back to the level it was a few months ago.

VIRGO August 23– September 22if you come up against things you don’t understand this week, ask people whose opinions you trust for their opin-ions. Educating yourself will help you move ahead.

LIBRA September 23– October 22Take some time out of your schedule for some much-needed pampering. Whether it is a massage or simply sleeping in, make it a priority.

SCORPIO October 23– November 21Delegation will be your favorite word of the week. When the going gets tough, start delegating the tasks that have you stumped. This will ensure everyone stays productive.

SAGITTARIUS November 22– December 21Sagittarius, you may be called upon to lend your special skills to a situation this week. While it may not be a job you relish, you know ultimately it has to get done.

SEEDING IN FULL SWING

A farmer seeds a field beside a slough

near Hepburn on Saturday, May 21.

The provincial Ministry of

Agriculture crop report says that

despite a cool and wet start to the

week, seeding is advancing at a

remarkable rate. Fifty-one per cent of the crop is now

seeded, well ahead of the five-year (2011-

2015) average.TERRY PUGH | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

Significant damage is being done to roads and ditches by dirt bike and quad riders, according to Corman Park Police Chief John Garnet. “The other day I was at a neighborhood watch meeting in the area of RR 3083 and TWP RD 374 where people in the community expressed concern about people on quads and dirtbikes tearing up the roads and ditches,” said Garnet. “They are often doing significant damage to roads by doing do-nuts and driving like idiots.” Garnet said he has concerns about this type of behaviour because of the damage being caused and also because people across the province get hurt on these machines because of misuse.

Careless riders causing road damage

Summer fairs just around the corner Several towns and cities in the region are gearing up for their annual community cel-ebrations. Martensville Buster Days and Dalmeny Days are both slated for the weekend of June 3-5. Warman’s annual Diamond Rodeo is scheduled for the weekend of June 10-12. Langham days are planned for the week-end of June 17-19. Aberdeen Days are also planned for June 17-19. The Hague Summer Blast fair is sched-uled for the weekend of June 24-26. The Town of Osler celebrates Canada Day on Friday, July 1. The communities have a list of events on their municipal websites.

“I want to remind people that operators of off-road ma-chines require permission to enter and ride on private property,” said Garnet. “Property owners should notify us if strangers are riding without permission on their prop-erty.” Garnet said people are allowed to ride in the ditch if they meet the requirements of the ATV Act, which in-cludes certain conditions: people must wear an approved helmet; operators must have the ATV operators course or a driver’s licence; kids must be supervised; and operators must meet insurance requirements. “There is a very handy pamphlet that SGI prints that has all the requirements listed or contact a police service for information,” said Garnet.

The following is the local media release for the Warman/Mar-tensville Detachment of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police for the week of May 16, 2016 to May 23rd, 2016.

Royal Saskatchewan Museum calls for nature and music-loving high school students A brand new year-long program called Songwriting for Nature is being launched by the Royal Saskatchewan Museum (RSM). Funded by Environment Canada in partnership with Last Mountain Lake Na-tional Wildlife Area, high school students through-out Saskatchewan are invit-ed to apply for the program, which will deepen their ap-preciation for the natural world through the songwrit-ing process. Program participants will work with three lo-cal songwriters to gener-ate song ideas and lyrics in-spired by the Last Mountain Lake National Wildlife Area (NWA). The songwriters in-clude Megan Nash, Break-Out West 2016 Western Ca-nadian Music and Industry Award Nominee (Songwrit-er of the Year), RSM Curator of Human Ecology and ac-complished musician Glenn Sutter, and Regina-based singer/songwriter Ryan Hicks.

‘Scotty’ is the new Saskatchewan fossilBy HILARY [email protected] Citizens across the prov-ince have had their say and Scotty, the Tyrannosaurus rex, will be the next provin-cial emblem. Scotty is a 65 million year-old T. rex skeleton - the first found in Saskatche-wan. Scotty was discovered on August 16, 1991, when a high school teacher from Eastend, Robert Gebhardt, joined Royal Saskatchewan Museum (RSM) palaeon-tologists on an expedition. He discovered the base of a tooth and a vertebra from the tail, both suggesting that they belonged to a T. rex. RSM palaeontologists be-gan excavating the T. rex in June 1994. More than 6,000 people visited the excava-tion site that year. The public was presented

Scotty is the first T. rex. discovered in Saskatchewan

with seven choices for the new provincial fossil. Vot-ing closed on April 26 and of 14,208 votes cast, Scotty re-ceived 4,923, or 35 per cent of total votes. “I would like to thank the public who and participat-ed in this campaign, along with the RSM who facilitat-ed the selection of the next provincial emblem,” Parks, Culture and Sport Minis-ter Mark Docherty said in a press release. “Scotty the T. rex will make a wonderful provin-cial emblem. No other prov-ince or state has a T. rex as an official emblem; Sas-katchewan is the first and only.” Provincial emblems are important symbols for the province and its citizens, helping to form and inform Saskatchewan identity. Scotty joins other Sas-

katchewan emblems like the provincial flag, the sharp-tailed grouse, the province’s bird, the western red lily, Saskatchewan’s official flow-er, and others. Recent discoveries by pale-ontologists in Toronto indi-cate the T. rex may not have been as scary-looking as is often depicted. They sug-gest the dinosaur may have had lips, thereby shrouding the teeth to some extent and mitigating the scariness fac-tor. The Provincial Fossil Campaign also featured a competition aimed at Grade 7 students who submitted videos making a case for their choice for Saskatche-wan’s provincial fossil. Out of 24 videos submitted, the winning classroom was Chad Jeannot’s class from Alameda School in Alame-da.

“Music is an effective way to communicate thoughts, ideas and emotions,” RSM Curator of Human Ecolo-gy Glenn Sutter said. “The Royal Saskatchewan Muse-um is excited to take part in this brand new project and explore ways that songwrit-ing and the beauty of Last Mountain Lake can help people reconnect to nature.” Successful applicants will go on two chaperoned field trips to the NWA, one in September 2016 and one in May 2017. During these trips, students will learn about song structure, and strategies for crafting lyr-ics and melodies. They will also learn techniques to im-prove songwriting by cap-turing their impressions of NWA through journaling, photography, visual art and more. Throughout the school year, students will work with the facilitators to devel-op their ideas and songs for a temporary museum exhib-

it and a public performance in June 2017. Participants will deepen their connec-tion to nature, be mentored by songwriters who will help them to develop as mu-sicians, and will also con-tribute to research about hu-mans and their connection to nature. The 2016-17 program is a pilot project; applicants should act quickly as there is space for just twenty par-ticipants. Applications will be ac-cepted until the end of May, and successful applicants will be contacted in ear-ly June. Learn more and apply at www.songs4na-ture.ca or the Songwrit-ing 4 Nature Facebook page at www.facebook.com/Songwriting-For-Nature-861354373968420/?fref=ts. This project was undertak-en with the financial sup-port of the Government of Canada through the federal Department of the Environ-ment.

Travel group returns from European trip of a lifetime

Ten students snagged pictures at many popular tourist locations in Europe, including this one at the Colosseum in Rome

Students from Culture Club 2016 took a very busy tour, traveling to four dif-ferent countries in 12 days. Club members visit-ed London, England; Paris, France; Venice, Italy; and Vatican City. The tour fin-ished off with a beautiful extension to Sorrento and finally the Island of Capri, Italy. Under the guidance of group leader Tanya Rich-mond, the tour used planes, trains, buses, boats and ferries to move around Europe and members expe-rienced a three hour train ride through the Chun-nel tunnel from the Unit-ed Kingdom to France and were under the ocean for 20

minutes. Students had a 14 hour overnight train trip from Paris to Venice, slept in very small quarters and were rocked to sleep by the sway of the train. Addition-ally, there was a three hour high speed train from Ven-ice to Rome with speeds topping at 300 km/h. A boat was used to get to the island of Venice, a gondo-la ride while in Venice and then members were ferried to the island of Capri. The highlight of this journey across the world with 10 amazing students (Hanna Anderson, Cole Benko, Nathan Davis, Lizzy Ettinger, Hannah Fehr, Jill Kroger, Peyton McPhee, Brody Richmond,

Hank Safarik and Bobbie Wick) and five remarkable chaperones (Corrine An-derson, Vern Benko, Brook Davis, Christin McPhee, Linda Safinuk) was the trip itself. The group hit the ground running on day one and never stopped. Each day was full of history, food, adventure and fun. Every day had their own “wow” moments and there were so many sights to see, in-cluding Big Ben, Windsor castle, The Louvre, Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Versailles, Venice the city with no cars, the Colosse-um, the Vatican, Pompeii, and the heat of Capri, just to mention a few.
