Construction is now well underway on the new school in Warman.

“This exciting project is making steady progress,” said John Kuzbik, Direc-tor of Education for Prairie Spirit School Division. “Now we need to determine a name for the school. As part of the naming process, we want to hear suggestions from stu-dents, staff and residents of Warman and area.” Warman students, staff and community members are invited to submit a name that reflects the local com-munity and the nature of this new school and may include rationale for their name submission. Submission forms will be available at Warman High School, Warman Elementa-ry School, Division Office in Warman, and on the school division website at www.spiritsd.ca. Entries can be delivered to the schools in Warman, to the Division Of-

fice (121 Klassen Street East), by fax (934-8221) or email ([email protected]). The dead-line for entries is Thursday, April 5. A local committee will review the submissions and provide a select number of entries for the Board of Ed-ucation to consider, Kuzbik said. The winning submis-sion (which may be a single entry or a composite of en-tries) will be recognized at the time of the school’s sod-turning ceremony. The school project was announced by the Premier

in March, 2010 and is part of a joint-use project with the Town of Warman’s Legends Complex in the town’s north end. The new school will have access to the gym fa-cilities in the sports complex as part of a joint-use agree-ment already signed between the Town and the school di-vision. The community will have access to the theatre and library which will be part of the school. The $21.5 million school facility is ex-pected to be substantially completed by the time school starts in fall, 2013.

A Hairy Woodpecker, with its claws awkwardly up at its neck, uses its tail to balance itself while stretch-ing out its tongue to grab birdseed from a backyard feeder in Warman last weekend. The woodpecker was just a little too big to get at the treat comfortably. Hairy Woodpeckers, and their smaller look-a-like cousins, Downy Woodpeckers, live year round in the area. They love sunflower seeds and suet.

FLIPPIN’ OUT

A petition containing over 2,000 signatures of RM residents was

handed over to RM ad-ministrator Judy Doug-las on Friday, March 9 at the Corman Park office in Saskatoon by former reeve Dick Friesen. The petition is calling for a division of the RM into two, with the South Saskatchewan River as the dividing line. Friesen told reporters

RM of Corman Park council to reviewseparation petition at April 2 meeting

the separation petition was prompted by the reduction in electoral divisions from 11 to 8, a move which he says will be mean less representation at the council table for west side residents. The reduction in the number of electoral di-visions was endorsed last fall by the provincial Minister of Municipal Affairs, Hon. Dar-ryl Hickie, following a refer-endum on the issue in which a majority of ratepayers fa-voured the move. The ref-erendum was triggered by a successful petition orga-nized in early summer, 2011, by residents of the RM. The latest petition call-ing for a division of the RM of Corman Park contained 2,077 signatures.

By TERRY [email protected]

During the RM council meeting on Monday, March 12, Douglas said the admin-istration of the municipality is required to check that all the signatories to the peti-tion meet the residential re-quirements. If there are sufficient le-gitimate signatures, then the petition will be brought for-ward to council at its next meeting. “At the present time we have not yet verified those 2,077 names on the petition,” explained Douglas. “We now have 30 days to determine if the petition for a referendum is sufficient, and we are re-quired to bring it forward within those 30 days to coun-cil.”

Douglas said to accom-modate that 30-day timeline, there needs to be a change in the meeting date for the RM council. She said the next scheduled meeting on March 26 does not provide enough time to verify the names. Consequently, the date for council’s next meeting has been changed to accom-modate the review process. Originally scheduled for Monday, March 26, the meet-ing will now take place on Monday, April 2. A resolution put forward by Division 4 councilor Gor-don Gunoff to hold the April 2 meeting in the evening was endorsed. Gunoff said he was hoping to facilitate more pub-lic attendance at the meet-

In response to complaints from residents about the need for more facilities

to dispose of grass clippings during the summer and fall months, Martensville city council has opted to estab-lish a seasonal collection site on a municipally-owned piece of property. At its last meeting March 6, councilors heard that the proposal is to re-strict the site to grass clip-pings, and that the organic material will be collected periodically by public works employees and removed to a site near the municipal la-goon, where it can be com-posted naturally. Mike Grosh, Director of Public Works for the City of Martensville, said the col-lection site within the city limits will be monitored by cameras similar to those al-ready set up at the aquatic centre. The cameras are rela-tively inexpensive and high-ly effective, he noted. “They are battery-operated, mo-tion-activated cameras and the image is recorded on a card,” Grosh explained. “It shows the date and the time on each photo, so it’s very effective when it comes to enforcing the bylaws.” Similar cameras were set up last summer at the aquatic centre in response to acts of vandalism, noted Dave Bosch, Martensville Director of Recreation and Community Services. “Since we put the cameras in at the pool, the incidents have stopped,” said Bosch. A majority of councilors were in favour of trying the composting arrangement for the coming season, noting that other options will also be explored with All-Green Recycling, a subsidiary com-pany of Loraas Disposal, which currently contracts with the city for garbage and recycling collection.

ing, which will get under-way at 6:30 p.m. in the RM council chambers. If there are sufficient verified signatures on the petition, council is obliged to forward the petition to the provincial Minister of Municipal Affairs, who will then decide if and when a referendum is to be held. The term of office for recently-elected RM coun-cilors in Divisions 1, 3, 5, and 7 will be for four years. They will be up for election in October, 2016. Council-ors elected in Divisions 2, 4, 6 and 8 will be in office for two years, with elections scheduled for October, 2014. An election for Reeve will take place in October, 2012.

Community theatre showcases classic comedy this weekend

Heading into its fourth annual production, the Warman Drama Club

just keeps raising the bar. “We’re pretty well-estab-lished now,” commented Carol Affleck of Warman, artistic di-rector for the club. “We’ve got a very solid core group of people, and our goal is to stage produc-tions that are a joy to watch. We want people to come out and have a good time.” And few comedies can de-liver the laughs like “Arsenic and Old Lace”. Based on the classic film starring Cary Grant, the live show is slated for this week-end at the Brian King Centre in Warman. The plot revolves around a pair of elderly ladies who quietly poison lodgers out of a misguided sense of altru-ism. “It sounds kind of bizarre, but it’s actually very, very fun-ny and has a lot of cute and clever scenes,” said Affleck. While tickets are selling well, Affleck says there are still seats available. The vibrancy and quali-ty of community theatre may surprise some people, she said. A veteran of 30 years of com-munity theatre clubs in Alber-ta and Saskatchewan, Affleck also knows the business at the professional level. She works full-time as Artist Services Co-ordinator at Persephone The-

atre in Saskatoon. She says while the pro-fessional theatre scene in Saskatoon is growing, thanks to Persephone Theatre’s new facility at River Landing, there’s also a shift in commu-nity theatre away from the big city to smaller centres. “Gateway Theatre was al-ways a strong amateur theatre company in Saskatoon,” noted Affleck. “It was around for 40 years, but it’s now folded, and that’s left actors, directors and set designers looking for other outlets.” Thankfully, the Warman Drama Club came along at just

the right time. “My husband and I moved to Warman a little over four years ago,” said Affleck. “That was right about the time that Jamie McCrae was getting this club organized. I jumped in, and it’s been a great experi-ence.” Affleck said the club has been able to attract not only lo-cal actors, but also several vet-erans of Gateway productions, including Michael Neuert, Russ Ramsden and Darren Zimmer. Ramsden, a retired drama teacher, is directing this year’s production. That wealth of experience,

combined with the exuberance of a community-based theatre club, means the quality of the productions is consistently high. Affleck said it’s important for community theatre clubs to pick high-caliber comedy scripts. “When you only put on one play a year, it has to be one that people want to come and see,” she said. “A comedy works best.” There is also close coopera-tion with other theatre groups, both professional and commu-nity-based. “We have been able to borrow set flats from the Langham Theatrical Compa-

ny and props from Persephone Theatre,” said Affleck. “It’s nice to have those supports.” Affleck said the measure of a good performance is when pa-trons leave the theatre, think-ing ‘gosh, that looked so easy and natural’. “That’s when you know that all the little details were taken care of,” she said. “It’s a lot of work, but it’s also a lot of fun, and that’s why we do it.”FUNDS PUT BACK INTO COMMUNITY ARTS There’s also another mo-tivation that involves giving back to the community. “The performing arts are

a very important part of any community,” said Affleck. “So part of the goal of the club is to raise money for worthwhile projects here in Warman. With each of our productions, we’ve donated whatever money is left over after our expenses are covered to different projects. We’ve put money into the dra-ma program at the high school, we’ve given money to the new arts program at KidSport, and also to the Warman Sport and Cultural Village - now known as the Legends Centre.” She said the productions staged by the club are a “win-win” opportunity for people to support the arts in more ways than one. “We invite people to come out and have a good time, and know the money is going to a good cause,” she added. Tickets are available by calling 978-1339.

The City of Martensville website has a brand new look.

Along with that fresh de-sign are several new interac-tive tools that allow residents of the city and the surround-ing area to stay abreast of news, events and services in Martensville. The new website – www.martensville.ca – has been completely revamped and up-graded, according to Bonnie Gorelitza, Director of Plan-ning for Martensville and one of the main coordinators of the website project. “It’s a big step up, and it’s been a long time in the mak-ing, but we’re pretty happy with the results,” Gorelitza said in an interview late last week. “It’s been a year-long

process involving council, staff and an outside web de-veloper. We were looking for a more dynamic website that will be able to engage the citi-zens more fully. We recognize the demographics of our com-munity and their computer ca-pabilities and availability. It’s a very young demographic and they want to be able to access information electronically and get it very quickly.” The website went live on-line on Thursday, March 9, but it will be constantly tweaked to keep things up to date and relevant, Gorelitza noted. “It’s really a work in prog-ress,” she said. “We are con-stantly refreshing the con-tent and adding new things to it. There are modules where people can sign up for instant notification on things that they’re interested in, whether that’s municipal services like

garbage pickup and recycling, or leisure services, recreation and sports. There’s a calendar that outlines things like base-ball and soccer registration and swimming lessons sched-ules at the aquatic center. And there’s a special emergency

measures notification as well that will take priority on the main website if an emergency situation comes up.” The City of Martensville worked with a Kansas-based agency called CivicPlus to tai-lor the website design specifi-cally for the city. “CivicPlus only does municipal websites,” explained Gorelitza. “It’s actu-ally an agency that was set up by municipal governments in the US, and so they bring that unique perspective to the web-sites.”

Tenders have gone out for the East Drainage Ditch project to be built this

spring east of Osler. The large-scale project is aimed at easing flood con-cerns in the Town of Osler, as well as the RM of Corman Park between the town and the South Saskatchewan Riv-er. The project was conceived as a joint effort between the municipalities, and is part of a larger effort to reduce flooding in the area. It is also aimed at allowing better wa-ter drainage in Osler as the town expands its residential footprint. The deadline for bids for the project is Tuesday, March 27. The work consists of approximately 21,000 cubic meters of excavation and ap-proximately 170 lineal meters of culvert installation and re-lated work. The ditch will be constructed along the north side of Blumenheim Road from the Town of Osler to a natural drainage coulee that will then carry the water to the river. Work on the project is ex-pected to begin this spring, once the successful bid is chosen. The work is being done under the supervision of Catterall and Wright, an engineering firm contracted by the Town of Osler for the project.

TEMPORARY ROAD The RM of Corman Park council resolved at its meet-ing on Monday, March 12 to allow construction equipment

Tenders sought for drainage ditch projectneeded for the project to be transported on Blumenheim Road. The road, which has a thin membrane of pave-ment on the road bed, has a 10 tonne weight limit, and the council resolved to make an exception for the construc-tion equipment loads being moved by truck. However, the RM council was not in favour of allowing truck transport of excavated material along Blumenheim Road, noting the large num-ber of heavy loads would se-verely damage the roadbed and road surface. The alternative endorsed by the RM council is for the contractors to build a tem-porary road for hauling the dirt. The temporary road is estimated to cost about $100,000, but because the ditch project is being done

under a federal-provincial-municipal cost-sharing pro-gram, up to 75 percent of the cost of the temporary road may be subsidized by senior levels of government. Corman Park Reeve Mel Henry said an estimated 1,000 truckloads required for the project would result in damage to Blumenheim Road that would far exceed the cost of building a temporary road. “It could cost us hun-dreds of thousands of dollars to fix that road if that many loads are allowed on it,” he said during the council meet-ing. Discussions on the proj-ect and its associated costs and funding sources are con-tinuing between the RM of Corman Park, the Town of Osler and the watershed asso-ciation.

SaskPower transmission line projects

In order to address the electrical capacity and reliability issues in and around Saskatoon as well as to help meet the growing electrical needs of Saskatchewan’s potash industry, SaskPower is proposing to construct a new switching station and substation north of Saskatoon, a new switching station northeast of Saskatoon in the Aberdeen area, a new transmission line connecting these two stations and a new transmission line from the new Aberdeen Switching Station to the existing Wolverine Switching Station.

Initial consultations started in March of 2011 and environmental and other studies were completed from May through September. Based on the results of these studies and input received from landowners, elected officials and other stakeholders, preferred routes have now been selected for these new transmission lines.

SaskPower invites anyone interested in these projects to participate in the next round of consultations by attending one of the following open house information sessions. For additional information, please call SaskPower Environmental Programs at 1 800-667-4749.

So are we booming or bust-ing?Or is it a little a both?

Certainly, when it comes to the complex Saskatchewan economic that depends on the whims of the weather, agricul-tural markets and the ups and downs of the natural resource cycle, it can be a little of both. One thing is certain, though: A tougher hold-the-spending budget will mean rural communities bear more than their share of the cuts. It has always worked that way and there’s little reason to think that will change even if it’s a government with a strong rural base that is mak-ing the cuts. For those of you who might have missed them, Premier Brad Wall has been dropping strong hints of a tough budget on March 21 that will see the elimination of some govern-ment programs. Wall also told reporters that other programs – even on the social services side – might receive funding cuts. (Interestingly, Wall’s last hints of a tough budget came just as he was leaving for Ire-land to recruit skilled work-ers.) Already, the Saskatche-wan Premier has made it clear that one such cut will mean smaller communities and cit-ies paying more for RCMP ser-vices. As noted earlier, this is all too typical of austerity measure budgets where cost-efficiency is always the first consideration. And whenever bureaucrats and politicians start talking about cost-effi-ciency in program delivery, it is almost always rural Sas-

katchewan that pays the price. Also worth watching in the upcoming provincial bud-get will the formula for educa-tion funding that is expected to be overhauled. Again, de-tails are sketchy at this point, but you can bet rural commu-nities will be affected. The question, however, is why is all this necessary? Haven’t we been receiving near daily reminders from the Wall government that we are in a time of near unprecedent-ed growth and prosperity? So is this a boom or a bust? Yes, governments at least attempt to be slightly more disciplined with their spend-ing in the first budget of a term. Yes, “good times” also happen to be a “good time” to keep spending in check. And, yes, the Sask. Par-ty did take the high road in last November’s election cam-paign, talking about the ex-travagance of the NDP plat-form. That said, the Sask. Party wasn’t exactly shy about promising new hospitals in North Battleford and Moose Jaw or replacements in small-er communities like Kipling and Radville. Where was all this newfound spending disci-pline last term when govern-ment spending increased near-ly 30 per cent in four years? If we were headed for rough times shouldn’t Wall’s

government have told us that earlier? There wasn’t even any mention of the changes to RCMP funding at last month’s Saskatchewan Urban Munici-palities Association (SUMA) conference. And what about all the other hype about our booming economy? Exactly how can we be in times of austerity, when the government keeps telling us about all our prosperity –retail sales increases, popula-tion growth, more job opportu-nities, etc? Well, it’s about here where we may be getting to the real reason we are now seeing this inconsistency. What this Sask. Party gov-ernment has gotten quite good at quite quickly is hyping it-

self – telling us exactly how much better provincial voters are doing under a Sask. Party regime. For much of its first term, this also happened to be the reality. But as economic con-ditions have returned to what might be considered more nor-mal expectations, it’s been a little difficult for the govern-ment to simply shut down its propaganda machine. So when it comes to the question of whether we are in a boom or a bust, signs suggest that it might be a little of both. The problem is, Wall seems to have a little difficulty talking about the latter – espe-cially when it translates into cuts in rural Saskatchewan and elsewhere.

Canada observed International Women’s Day on Thursday, March 8. But incredibly, some Canadians are still excluded from citizen-

ship solely because they were born to unwed mothers over 65 years ago. They are part of a group known as Lost Canadians: people who are excluded from citizenship or are having difficulty claiming it because of the date or circumstances of their birth. Among them are some of the 22,000 children who were born overseas to Canadian service-men and arrived in Canada with their war bride mothers during or immediately after the Second World War. Some were born out of wedlock be-cause their fathers could not get the required per-mission to marry. Such cases were common and inevitable under wartime conditions. After a life-time in Canada, these war bride children are still excluded from citizenship by an obscure provi-sion of the 1946 Citizenship Act. Jackie Scott was born in England in 1945, out of wedlock, to a Canadian soldier and a British mother. Because of poor health, she was unable to travel to Canada with her mother until 1948. Shortly after her arrival, her parents were mar-ried in Toronto. By her parents’ marriage she was legitimated retroactively from birth under Ontario law, but is still being denied citizenship. She is now suing the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration in the Federal Court. Marion Vermeersch, a retired social worker living in Simcoe, Ont., was born in England in 1944 to a Canadian soldier and a British moth-er. Her father, born in Scotland, had arrived in Canada in 1926 as a British Home Child. Mari-on was born out of wedlock, but after her father was wounded in action her parents were able to marry in England before he was repatriated to Canada. She arrived in Canada with her mother in May 1946 and has lived here ever since. When she applied for her first passport in 2003, she was informed to her shock and disbelief that she was not a Canadian citizen. She was told instead to apply for a Permanent Resident Card, and now travels on a British passport. Tom Kent (1922-2011) served briefly in the 1960s as deputy minister of Citizenship and Im-migration. In 2009, asked to comment on one of these cases, he replied: ‘Exclusion from citizen-ship, in cases such as you describe, is entirely contrary to the philosophy of Canadian citizen-ship as I have always understood it. The people you know have not been treated fairly. The dis-missive attitude of officials, as reported, should be unacceptable to the Minister.’ Jason Kenney - The Minister of Citizenship and Immigration has recently stated that the gov-ernment will take steps to end the automatic ac-quisition of citizenship by so-called passport ba-bies whose mothers enter Canada solely for the purpose of giving birth to a Canadian child. He should give equal attention to the plight of those Canadians who by an accident of birth are still excluded from citizenship of the only country they know.

A fundraising supper in Warman last weekend brought in $21,500 for

the Sask Valley Foodgrains Bank. Combined with its an-nual charity auction coming up in late June, the organiza-tion will likely raise at least $130,000 this year. It’s all money that will go towards helping to alleviate hunger in the world – one per-son at a time, says Dave Mei-er of Star City, Saskatchewan Regional Coordinator for the Canadian Foodgrains Bank (CFB). “This marks the 29th an-niversary for the Canadian Foodgrains Bank,” explained Meier in an interview at the fundraising supper. “It origi-nated in the 1970s as the Men-nonite Food Bank, but they opened it up in 1983 and let other groups join. It’s made up of 15 church agencies, and the vision of the organization, which is nation-wide, is to cre-ate a world without hunger.” Meier said it all started when one person visited Ban-gladesh and witnessed the mass starvation that was oc-curring in the 1970s. “He came back to Manitoba and saw huge surpluses of grain out in the fields, and thought: “’there’s something wrong with this picture, and we have to do something about it.’ He thought he could make a dif-ference, and today it is one of the largest private food aid and development organiza-tions in the world,” said Meier. “This year we’ve raised over $14 million across Canada so far. In Saskatchewan, we’ve raised $1.9 million so far this year, compared to $1.6 million a year ago.” Meier said while an esti-mated 28,000 people still die every day because they don’t get enough to eat, the CFB be-lieves the problem still needs to be tackled, even if it does seem overwhelming at times. “The Foodgrains Bank is a Christian response to hunger,” he said. “It’s our mandate as Christians to love our neigh-bor, and that’s really what it’s about.” Meier said there has been a steady increase in the amount of funds raised by CFB every year. He attributes that to the generosity of Canadians, and to the track record of the food grains bank in delivering aid and development programs. “Over those 29 years we’ve been in existence, we’ve av-eraged 95 percent of what we shipped getting to where it’s supposed to go,” he said. “And our administration costs are less than 10 per cent of those overall costs. We rely heavily on volunteers, and in fact our staff also puts in a lot of volun-teer time as well.” Meier said the Sask Valley Foodgrains Bank is one of the strongest local organizations contributing to the overall na-tional effort. “Over the last few years, the proceeds from the Sask Valley auction have been run-ning in the neighbourhood of around $110,000 to $120,000,” he said. “The funds we raise are then matched four to one by the government through the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA). So that works out to about $25 million a year. Last year we were active in 35 countries, and helped about 2.3 million people.” Meier said recent changes have allowed the CFB to pur-

chase grain in countries clos-er to where the food is needed, rather than relying as heavi-ly on Canadian grain shipped overseas. “That saves money on shipping costs,” he pointed

out. “About half of the dona-tions to the food grains bank consists of grain, and the oth-er half is straight cash dona-tions.”

TRAFFIC OFFENCESOn March 5th at 7:49 p.m., the Warman RCMP along with Saskatoon Police Service, and MD Ambulance received a call of a two vehicle collision, 5 kilometres west of Saskatoon on Highway #14, involving an eastbound Ford Taurus and a westbound Ford Tempo. The lone occupant of the Ford Tem-po, a 36 year old male from the Calgary area was pronounced deceased at the scene. The two occupants of the Taurus, an elderly couple from Elbow, Saskatchewan, were trans-ported to hospital with inju-ries. Though the cause of the accident is still under investi-gation, preliminary indicators have led police to believe that the operator of the Tempo may have performed an unsafe passing maneuver which re-sulted in the head-on collision. The road and weather condi-tions were not believed to be a factor. The traffic was re-di-rected for several hours while the RCMP Traffic analyst com-pleted his investigation.

DRUNK DRIVEROn March 5th, shortly before midnight, Warman RCMP ob-served a vehicle driving in an erratic manner for the weather and road conditions. The vehi-cle was stopped and the driver showed signs of impairment and was detained for breath

tests. A 36 year old male from Big River First Nations was ar-rested for impaired driving af-ter failing the roadside breath instrument. He was returned to the Warman RCMP Detach-ment where further tests were conducted which resulted in the man providing samples that were twice the legal limit. The man was later released to appear in Saskatoon Provin-cial Court. A female passen-ger in the vehicle was arrested when she became confronta-tional and attempted to spray officers with hand sanitizer. A 25 year old female, from the Big River First Nation ap-peared in Saskatoon Provin-cial Court the following morn-ing on allegations that she had breached her Conditional Sen-tence Order.

DANGEROUS ATV STUNTOn March 6th, at 7:30 p.m., police were contacted and ad-vised that a man was operat-ing an all terrain vehicle in Osler and was towing sever-al children on a sled, none of whom were wearing helmets. The ATV operator was locat-ed by police a short while later and was issued a warning for failing to wear a helmet, and for failing to ensure that his passengers wore helmets. Po-lice would like to warn ATV operators that they are re-quired to wear helmets, and that any passengers, whether on the ATV, or being towed by the ATV, are also required to wear helmets.

HIGHWAY 16 COLLISIONOn March 6th at 11:43 am the

Radisson RCMP along with Langham Fire Department responded to a single vehicle collision on highway 16. The driver of a Jeep Wagoneer, a 41 year old male from Spirit-wood, lost control of his ve-hicle and entered the medi-an, causing extensive damage to his vehicle. The driver re-fused medical treatment af-ter being checked at the scene for minor scratches. He was charged for driving at speeds that are greater than reason-able and safe under the Traffic Safety Act.

NEAR MISSOn March 7th at 7:07 a.m. the Warman RCMP responded to

a 911 call that the driver of a Dodge 3/4 ton truck pulling a 5th wheel had to take eva-sive action to avoid an colli-sion after being passed by a westbound vehicle. Upon ar-rival the truck and trailer unit were located in the ditch with the trailer up on its side. The driver was not injured, but the trailer had to be towed away. The suspect vehicle was not lo-cated by police.HIT AND RUNOn March 8th between the hours of 4:30 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. a parked black Pontiac Grand Am on the 200 block of South Railway Avenue in Warman was pushed a short

distance in a hit and run in-cident. The vehicle sustained damages to the driver’s side. Warman RCMP are investi-gating.GAS THEFT IN BORDENOn March 6th at approximate-ly 2:30 in the morning, a large jacked up 4X4 truck with a burned out floodlight was seen leaving the Borden Town yard with a stolen 1000 gallon tank. The vehicle headed east on Highway #16 and passed the bridge. The Warman RCMP are presently investi-gating.PROPERTY CRIMEOn March 3rd the Warman

RCMP received a complaint that a farmyard northwest of Asquith was broken into sometime in the prior 2 weeks. A gasoline storage tank was damaged, fuel was stolen and a shed was broken into. The Warman RCMP ask if any-one has any information con-cerning this matter to call the Warman RCMP Detachment.MAIL THEFTOn March 5th at 4:40 p.m. Warman RCMP received a complaint of theft of T4 slips from the mail in Grandora. An envelope had been sliced open on the narrow side of

It’s a musical sound that’s not heard often in Sas-katchewan, but the pan

flute is one of the most beau-tiful and haunting instru-ments ever invented. A pair of concerts by Liselotte Rokyta, one of the masters of the pan flute, is scheduled for later this month. Accompanied by Andre Knevel, a world-re-nowned pianist and organ-ist, Rokyta is making her first appearance in the prov-ince. A concert is slated for Wednesday, March 21 at Bethel Christian Reformed Church at 7:30 pm. The church is located in the RM of Corman Park just east of Highway 11, two kilometers north of Warman Road. The second concert takes place at Valley Christian Academy in Osler on Tuesday, March 22 at 7:30 pm. Both concerts offer free admission, with a goodwill offering taken up. It’s a tremendous oppor-tunity to take in a unique concert while supporting a

Liselotte Rokyta, along with Andre Knevel (not pic-tured) will perform two benefit con-certs on March 21 and 22 in support of Eurovangelism/EuroAid, a Christian organization that provides humani-tarian aid to disad-vantaged people in Eastern Europe and Russia.

humanitarian, charitable cause, according to Rev. Bri-an Lise of Warman. Lise is Assistant Direc-tor of Eurovangelism/Eu-roAid, a Christian charita-ble organization that works with local people in Eastern Europe and Russia to assist those who are struggling to survive, regardless of race, age, religion or background. “We work in Russia, Ukraine, Serbia, Romania, Albania and other countries in that part of Europe,” ex-plained Lise in an interview March 7. “We provide hu-manitarian aid to families and individuals in need.” Lise said the agency works in partnership with local people in those coun-tries. “We don’t send people from here to do that work,” he said. “We work with the local churches and the local pastors.” Lise said since the fall of communism in many East-ern European countries, the organization has not experi-enced opposition from gov-ernments in those countries. However, he noted, there are other challenges, including the presence of organized

crime syndicates that victim-ize poor people. Lise noted that the orga-nization has a good working relationship with existing churches in the region, most of which are of the Eastern Orthodox tradition. “We’re more of a Protestant bent, and there are some differ-ences,” he said. “But we don’t ask what brand of Christian-ity a person is. We just pro-vide whatever help we can, and overall we have a good relationship with the church-es over there.” Lise said Knevel and Rokyta have been doing ben-efit concerts for the charity for the past six years, but this marks the first time they’ve performed in Saskatchewan. Lise first got to know the musicians several years ago, when they performed in To-ronto’s Roy Thompson Hall. “They were looking to do a dress rehearsal for the con-cert,” recalled Lise. “So they decided to do a benefit con-cert in a church. I knew a number of musicians, as well as choir people and a direc-tor, so that’s where it started about fifteen years ago. For the past six years, they’ve

done the concerts specifically for Eurovangelism.” He noted that while the musicians’ expenses are paid, the money raised at the con-

cert will go directly to the charity. Lise said people may be surprised at how beautiful the pan flute sounds live in

concert. “This lady is an ab-solute master of the instru-ment,” he stated. “It will be an experience for the audi-ence.”

the envelope and the slips miss-ing. Police are seeking infor-mation from the public on any similar thefts that may have occurred. The information ob-tained from a T4 slip can be used to facilitate identity fraud and other types of scams and should be acted upon immedi-ately.CRIMES AGAINST PEOPLE On March 2nd, shortly after midnight, the Delisle RCMP at-tended a complaint in Delisle concerning a man who attended to a residence in violation of a restraint order which directed him to refrain from contacting the complainant. The area was searched and evidence showed the male had left by vehicle pri-or to police arrival. Police are seeking a 38 year old Delisle man in relation to this incident.DISTURBANCE IN OSLEROn March 2nd, at 8:00 p.m., the

Warman RCMP responded to a disturbance at the Osler Skat-ing Rink. A 34-year-old male from Dundurn was intoxicated and attempting to fight with the other users of the rink while a charity hockey game was ongo-ing. The man had left the are-na prior to the RCMP arrival. He was located a short distance away. The man was arrested for causing a disturbance and sub-sequently resisted attempts to place him under arrest. He was taken into custody and lodged in police holding cells over-night. The man was released on charges of causing a distur-bance and resisting arrest. He is scheduled to appear in court on April 25 at Saskatoon Pro-vincial Court.

CHILD ABANDONMENTAt 11:00 p.m. on March 2nd, during a Checkstop on High-way 12, a 28-year-old man from Martensville was stopped and

showed signs of impairment. The man was detained and sub-jected to a roadside breath test, which he failed. The man was arrested and was taken to the Warman RCMP Detachment for the purpose of providing breath samples. Investigating officers then learned that the man had an infant child that had been left alone in his residence with-out anyone to care for the child. An officer was dispatched im-mediately to the Martens-ville residence and found the child unharmed. The child was turned over to the mother who had been contacted a short while later. A 28-year-old man from Martensville was released on charges of impaired driving and child abandonment.

DISTRAUGHT PERSONOn March 4th at 11:30 a.m. the Warman RCMP received a call to locate a man in the Delisle area who was reported to be distraught over personal is-sues and was believed to be a risk to himself. Officers were able to locate the man and he agreed to be transported to hos-pital where he could be provid-ed with help.FIGHT IN WARMANOn March 8th shortly before midnight, the Warman RCMP were called to a disturbance at the Warman Hotel. Witnesses reported that there had been a fight outside of the lounge and one man received minor inju-ries. One suspect was reported to have fled prior to police ar-rival. A man matching the de-scription provided to police was

located several blocks away. The man was arrested by police and searched and found to be in possession of a small amount of marihuana. Further inves-tigation revealed that the man was on probation. A 26-year-old Warman man was later re-leased on charges of assault, possession of a controlled sub-stance and breach of a proba-tion order. The man is sched-uled to appear in Saskatoon Provincial Court on April 18.

DOMESTIC DISTURBANCEOn March 7th at 7:30 p.m. the Warman RCMP were called to a disturbance on Pauls Crescent in Osler. Upon arrival, the fe-male complainant advised that an adult male was upset and acting out. The man was spoken to by the officers and remained cooperative. The matter was re-solved with the male leaving Osler to maintain peace. Alco-hol was a contributing factor.

Friday & Saturday, March 16 & 17Warman High School Gymnasium

When Leslie Stevenson, Susan Bayne and Edith Arthur launched the very first Warman Cheer Classic

competition in 2007, they knew it would catch on. They just didn’t know it would get so popular so fast. Five years later, the event has gone be-yond everyone’s expectations. The largest competition of its kind in Saskatchewan, it draws competitors of all ages and skill lev-els It’s also gaining a reputation as a great show that you just don’t want to miss. Over 6000 competitors have taken part in the Warman Cheer Classic since it start-ed. This year, the event is expected to draw well over 1,400 cheerleaders to Warman High School. This marks the sixth straight year that

Warman’s Junior and Senior High School teams are competing in the Cheer Classic. The Juniors (grades 7-8) are entering the competition with 29 cheerleaders. The Seniors (grades 9-12) will be competing with 17 cheerleaders. There are seven coaches on staff for the high school cheer program. Leslie Stevenson’s leadership in the sport of Cheerleading was recognized last year when she was awarded the Provincial Coach of the Year honour. Not content to just coach the high school cheer teams, Stevenson reached out to cheerleader hopefuls in the larger community and started the Warman Ultimate Cheerlead-ing program in 2009. In just two years, it has more than quadrupled in size from 30 athletes to 150 athletes. Stevenson’s eleven coaches that assist her with Warman Ultimate Cheerleading are most-ly former or current Warman High School

students. The 12 coaches work with all age groups. There are six levels of teams on the Ul-timate squad: Pearls (ages 5 and under); Rubies (ages 8 and under); Emeralds (ages 11 and un-der); Amethysts (ages 14 and under); Sapphires (ages 18 & under). This year Stevenson added an Ultimate “Elite” Peridot team. Elite Peridot is made up of the top 18 ath-letes from amethysts and the sapphires teams. Team placement was in September after a great tryout. This team travels around North Amer-ica. We look forward to keeping their training up over the spring and summer and having an-other team placement this September. Next year we will add another Ultimate “Open Adult” team Topaz. We will start train-ing athletes that are 17 and older this spring to get them ready for September. We are very ex-cited to offer this team to Warman and anyone is invited out to try!

The groups travel to various competi-tions across North America, this year we have travelled to Edmonton with 5 teams both WUC and WHS and WUC has trav-elled to Tacoma Washington for Nationals in February. We are excited to look into new exciting competitions to travel to next season. Cheerleaders, present and future, are al-ways welcome at the spring and fall sessions offered by Warman Ultimate Cheerleading Association. Stevenson also provides sum-mer Ultimate Cheerleading camps, con-veniently located in Warman, during the month of August. For additional information on the Warman Ultimate Cheerleading program, feel free to visit the website at www.warman-ultimatecheerleading.com or give Leslie Ste-venson a call at 306-241-8558.

They left four games to spare when the Saskatoon Blades clinched a fourth con-secutive berth into the West-ern Hockey Playoffs with a 6-2 triumph over the Wheat Kings in Brandon Friday night…in Game 68 of the 72-game campaign. But, with three games remaining, go-ing into the final week of the regular season, the Bridge City Bunch can finish any-where from 5th to 8th place in the Eastern Conference and play anyone of four dif-ferent teams when the Ed Chynoweth Cup tournament opens next week! “That was our goal from the start of the year,” ex-plained Blades’ assistant coach Dave Struch following the Friday victory. “We’ve had three successful years leading to this one where we’ve clinched a little soon-er. But, it’s nice to be back in again this year and proceed from here.” The Blades are the only continuous, same-city char-ter member of the Western Hockey League and have qualified for the playoffs for the 35th time in 46 seasons. However, with a 38-28-3 re-cord for 79 points, and three games remaining going into the week, Saskatoon is not looking to go into “coast” mode. “We want to finish strong,” said Blades’ Gener-

al Manager and Head Coach Lorne Molleken. “Going into the playoffs this year, it re-ally doesn’t matter who you play…I think all the teams are excellent. “Our mindset and our approach to these remaining games will be really impor-tant.” Saskatoon played host to the arch-rival Prince Al-bert Raiders Tuesday before going into a home-and-home series with the Broncos…Friday in Swift Current and Saturday back at Cred-

it Union Centre. Going into the week, the Blades were in seventh place in the Eastern Conference with 79 points…one back of Regina and Koo-tenay and one point ahead of Brandon. On paper, the Pats, Ice and Wheat Kings had tougher schedules this week, giving Saskatoon a shot at finishing fifth or sixth and avoiding a first round playoff match-up against one of the division pennant-winning Edmonton Oil Kings and/or Moose Jaw Warriors.

ONE MAN’S PICKS FOR BLADES AWARD WIN-NERS – Several media mem-bers were asked to vote on some of the top awards that will be handed out following Saturday’s regular-season fi-nale against Swift Current. I’ll take a stab at more than just those…Most Valuable Player: An-drey Makarov; Most Gentle-manly Player: Josh Nicholls; Rookie of the Year: Brett St-ovin; Most Improved Player: Lukas Sutter; Most Dedicat-ed Player: Jesse Paradis; De-fenceman of the Year: Dalton Thrower; Brian Skrudland Trophy (Best Defensive For-ward): Michael Burns; Hard-est Working Player: Brent Benson; Diamond In the Rough: Alex Moodie; Hard-est Hitter: Darren Dietz.

*****BLADES PLAYER OF THE WEEK – Flip a coin between the Bridge City Bunch’s Im-ports! Russian goaltender Andrey Makarov stopped 85 of 89 shots (.955 save percent-age), including 34 saves last Tuesday in Prince Albert for a 2nd shutout this sea-son. Meantime, Czech wing-er Matej Stransky had six points in three games (1 G, 5 A) with a +4 rating. Over-all, the Dallas Stars’ draft pick leads the Blades with 36 goals and 72 points while his 36 assists is tied for the team lead.

Playoff-bound Blades in dark about first round opponent

The Sask Valley Dia-mond Pharmacy Vipers are one step closer to

the provincial Bantam AA championship. The Vipers polished off the Prince Albert Venice House Raiders 9-3 in the third and final game of their playoff series last Saturday at the Legends Centre in Warman. They now take on the North East Wolfpack to de-termine the North Division representative in the provin-cial final. The first game of that best-of-three series was slated for Tuesday, March 13, following the Gazette press deadline. Results can be viewed online at www.sbaahl.ca . The second game goes Saturday, March 17 at 7 pm at the Northern Lights Palace in Melfort. Game 3, if necessary, goes Tuesday, March 20 at the Legends Centre in Warman. After being edged 6-5 in Prince Albert in the second

game of the opening series the week before, the Vipers weren’t about to make the same mistake twice. “We had a rough game last Monday, and the boys re-bounded well tonight,” said Vipers head coach Shaun Priel after the gameon Sat-urday. “We really wanted to come back and close it out at home. Sometimes facing ad-versity early in the playoffs isn’t a bad thing because you can learn from it. The loss last weekend gave us an op-portunity to tell the kids: ‘You only get what you earn, and you earn the win with effort.’ They obviously took that message to heart to-night.” Liam Maley and Ter-rell Draude each contribut-ed three goals and an assist, while Logan Schatz had two goals and two assists. Con-nor Navrot notched the other goal and added two assists. Scotty Stewart also had a three-point night with three assists. “I was pretty pumped going into this game,” said Maley, a first-year player

who hails from Blackstrap Lake. “I knew this could be our last game, so I just went out and gave it my all.” Maley scored the Vi-pers’ first goal and assist-ed on Draude’s marker in the first period that put the home team up 2-0. Prince Al-bert rallied late in the open-ing frame and tied it up ear-ly in the second period on a power play with goals by Matt Campese and Reed Gunville. But Maley’s goal at the 8-minute mark of the sec-ond opened the floodgates, as Sask Valley scored six goals in six minutes. Tanner Fid-dler of the Raiders made it 8-3 going into the second in-termission. Connor Navrot of Mar-

tensville, another first-year player in the Bantam AA system, notched his power play goal late in the third to seal the victory. He said the team was determined right from the start. “As soon as I walked in the dressing room before the game, I just felt that vibe,” Navrot said. “Ev-eryone was ready to play. I think the guys felt we were going to go out and take it. You could see it in their eyes.” Navrot credited the team’s defense and goalten-ding for keeping the game close in the early going. “Our goalie made some awe-some saves when we needed Continued on Page 24Please see “VIPERS”

2A Boys Dylan Borstmayer (12) of the Cudworth Huskies gets a shot stuffed by VCA Lion Adam Wiebe (8) during the third quarter of their game on March 9 in Osler. The Li-ons won the game 72-30 and advanced to the semi-final game in the 2A boys basketball Conference tournament held March 9-10.

2A Boys Valley Christian Academy (VCA) in Osler hosted a Conference tournament on March 9-10, hosting Asquith, Saskatoon Christian, Rosthern Junior College (RJC), Hanley, Cud-worth, and Saskatoon CCA. Saskatoon Christian defeated Asquith 71-62, while RJC beat Hanley 70-46, and VCA won 72-30 over Cudworth. RJC’s game against Hanley was a back and forth battle with the lead changing hands several times before Rosthern took control in the final few minutes of the third quarter and carried the lead until the end. VCA was in control throughout their game against Cudworth. They used their of-fensive muscle under the nets to control re-bounds and a well-run offence to keep the ball away from their opponents. VCA coach Brad Wall said his team’s goal for the weekend was to finish in first or second spot in order to advance to Region-als. VCA has SHSAA banners for silver and bronze medals at SHSAA basketball Provin-cials hanging in their gym and would like to complete the set, Wall noted. Saskatoon CCA then defeated Saskatoon Christian 67-40. RJC lost 63-56 to VCA, while Saskatoon Christian defeated RJC 76-68. In the final VCA lost 80-73 to Saskatoon CCA. RJC now heads to Melfort for a Regional tournament, while VCA is hosting a different Regional playoff, both set for March 16-17. VCA will play Regina Western Christian at 8 p.m. on March 16.

3A GirlsShiralle Hiebert (9) of the Dalmeny Cougars drives for the net as a mem-ber of the Outlook Blues tries to catch up. De-spite Dalmeny’s efforts, the Blues won the game 62-48. The two teams were competing in a 3A girls basketball Con-ference tournament held in Delisle March 10. Clavet advances to the Regional tourna-ment being held at Re-gina Christian School March 16-17.

3A Girls Delisle hosted Clavet, Outlook, and Dalmeny in a Conference 6 tourna-ment on March 10. The Clavet Cougars defeated Delisle 67-27 in the first game. The Cougars dominated the game, using their height advantage to control rebounds and used a tight defence to keep Delisle shooting from outside.

Jami Hill-Wilcox, Delisle coach, said she wasn’t really surprised by the outcome of the game. “We have a young team. We lost eight players from last year, but we’ve improved all year,” she explained. “We came in hoping for an upset, but deep down we knew that was un-likely.”Clavet was the gold medallist at last year’s Provincials and is hoping for a chance to regain the title. Clavet lost sev-en players through graduation, so there are a lot of new, young faces on the team. “Our season has been up and down with a lot of inju-ries at the beginning of the year,” said Heith Drennan, Clavet coach. “We’re playing well and have a lot of poten-tial though.” Outlook beat Dalmeny 62-48 in the second game. Dalmeny coach Mike Fieber said his players had a good game against Outlook. “We got close, but we had a slump and couldn’t catch up after that,” he said. “We didn’t play the full 40 min-utes.” In the final Clavet beat Outlook 40-38. Clavet heads to Regina Christian School for a Region-al tournament March 16-17.

3A GirlsSydney Thiesson (20) of the Clavet Cougars guards Karly Richmond (14) of the Delisle Rebels during the third quarter of their game on March 10. The two teams were competing in a Conference basketball tournament. Clavet won the game 67-27, and advances to the Regional tournament being held at Regina Christian School March 16-17.

TEAM EFFORTThe Warman Wildcats Bantam hockey team gave it their all this past season, making it all the way to the Bantam B Northern Provincial Final. The team won the first game of the two-game, total-point series 4-2 in Spiritwood, but lost Game 2 in Warman last Sunday by a score of 9-4 to the Spiritwood Timber Wolves. Warman took an early lead in the first period, but Spiritwood came back in the latter stages of the game to salt it away. Warman coach Wayne Piper gave his players a lot of credit, saying they showed character and heart. “They didn’t give up,” Piper said after the last game. “They played hard. I’m very proud of these guys. They’re a very good group. I felt this year we had a very good opportunity to put a provincial pennant in this rink and we came very close. We didn’t get the bounces, but that’s hockey.

Weekly HoroscopesCAPRICORNThe numbers do not lie. You have surpassed your goals, Capricorn. A relative also receives some good news. In-vite them over to celebrate.

AQUARIUSBack off, Aquarius, and let your no. 2 take over. It’s their turn to shine. A home improvement project ends with a flourish. Thank those involved.

PISCESTwo heads are usually better than one, but not in this case, Pisces. You may have the brains, your friend may have the brawn, but you need an acquaintance’s mon-ey.

ARIESWant to quadruple your happiness? Stay as you are, Ari-es. Now is not the time for big changes. A bank mistake is rectified quickly. Good work!

TAURUSThe number five appears in various forms, prompting you to question if there is more behind it. Only a superi-or has the answer to that question, Taurus.

GEMINIYour sixth sense tells you all is not right at home. Do a little snooping, Gemini, and find out why things are not adding up. It is not as you suspect.

CANCERSeven times over, you asked, and seven times over you were rejected, but not this time, Cancer. Things have changed and the pickin’s are ripe, so go for it.

LEOEight is enough. In fact, Leo, it might be a little too much and you might want to pare down in light of what lies ahead. Life is about to get hectic.

VIRGOCats may be rumored to have nine lives, but you don’t, Virgo. Better attend to those nagging health concerns before they turn ugly. Finances improve.

LIBRADecades of work pay off this week big time, Libra. Throw a little party to celebrate. Ten envelopes present 10 different solutions—only one is right.

SCORPIOEleven is your lucky number, Scorpio. Use it wisely for 11 times the fun at an upcoming function. A secret is re-vealed with awesome results.

SAGITTARIUSOffers arrive by the dozen. Don’t say yes unless you’re certain you can commit to them, Sagittarius. A gesture of kindness leads to a lifelong friendship.

DELISLE BANTAM HOCKEYCole, Cullen and Duncan Sutherland of Borden, who play for the Delisle Bruins Bantam II team, played in Provincial playoffs against Melville on Sunday, March 4th in Delisle. The Delisle team were outplayed by the opposing team from a much larger center and lost the game 16 – 2. Last week Delisle won over Biggar in two games to advance and are to go to Melville on March 11th to play the final game.NEW ZEALAND TRIPI had a great trip to New Zealand with my son Todd, daughter Sheri(Glenn), Dun-can & Rachel Sutherland and to visit my oldest son Bryan Pidwerbesky and his wife Helen and my grandson Nikolai, who live on an acre-age outside Christchurch. I didn’t feel any earthquakes while there but they said there was a small one and while we were all down in Queenstown there was one of 4.3 magnitude that had put the power off for awhile. We did see a lot of damaged and demolished buildings/homes but did not go downtown to the most severely damaged area. We held a Christmas dinner and exchanged gifts and the 50th birthday par-ty for Bryan and Helen was held with about 45 in atten-dance. We all went down to Queenstown on February 26th, stopping overnight at Lake Tekapo in a home and at Queenstown we were in a Holiday home that had 9 beds for all of us. We all went up on the Gondola, ev-eryone but me went on go carts down a luge track and then I went on a coal fired steamship to Walter Peak High country farm where everyone fed the sheep, red deer, Scottish Highland cat-tle, but not the alpacas and then had tea(lunch). The Sutherlands went white wa-ter rafting while I did that and then on the way home Duncan bungee jumped off a bridge over a river gorge. The Sutherlands had driven down from Auckland while my son Todd & I flew right to Christchurch, and so they saw many more attractions

on the North Island such as the glow-worm caves, tubing in the caves and a Polynesian event, then the ferry ride across to the South Island. Gas down there was $2.14 –$2.20 a litre and the meals were very expensive- you couldn’t get much for under $20 and coffee is $3.50 – $5 a cup, but minimum wage is $15/hr and you don’t have to tip. GST is 15% but is always included in the total and not added on and they have no pennies, nickels or quar-ters. The 10 cent coin is Ca-nadian blank copper pennies that they buy and stamp, and they have 20 cent and 50 cent coins plus $1 and $2 gold col-ored coins of different sizes and the same paper bills as Canada. We all enjoyed the trip except for the 13/14 hour plane trip across the ocean and waiting in airports at Vancouver & Calgary com-ing home.

CONDOLENCESSincere Condolences are ex-tended to Denise & Al Nichol of Borden, who operate the Borden Art & Eatery, on the deaths of Denise’s mom and Dad – Ken & Nettie White. Nettie passed away Febru-ary 22nd at the age of 78 and Ken on February 26th at the age of 78, with the joint fu-neral service held February 29th at the Cathedral of Holy Family in Saskatoon with Reverend Father David Tum-back presiding, the reception was held in the Holy Family Church Hall and cremation with Interment at a later date in Hillcrest Memorial Gardens

Chiefs shut out Thunder, sweep PJHL playoff series

The Delisle Chiefs swept the Tri-Town Thun-der four games straight

last week to win their play-off series. The Chiefs earned a decisive 4-0 win at home on Wednesday, March 7, and fin-ished off the Thunder at Car-rot River on Friday, March 9 by a score of 8-1. The Chiefs advance to the next round of playoffs against the Saskatoon Quakers. The Quakers won their best-of-sev-en series over the Saskatoon Royals 4 games to 1. In the Chiefs home game on Wednesday, Paul Sonntag led the way with a pair of goals for the Chiefs, while Justin Kerr and Russ Schneider add-ed singles. “It feels pretty good to be able to contribute,” said Sonntag. “I have some pretty good linemates - Russ Schnei-der and Eric Ditto - and they know how to pass the puck. All I had to do was tap a couple in.” Sonntag, a second-year Engineering student at the University of Saskatchewan, earned the Prairie Junior Hockey League (PJHL) aca-demic scholarship award for the season. Combining an in-tensive junior career with a tough course load requires dis-cipline, he admitted. “I don’t have much of a so-cial life,” Sonntag said with a grin. “But it’s worth it.” The win was an important one for the Delisle squad, after narrowly edging the Thunder 5-4 in overtime in Game 2 in Carrot River a few days earlier. Game 3 was a different story, however. The Chiefs grabbed an early lead and employed an aggressive game plan that’s worked well for them all sea-son long. Delisle goaltender Cam Ir-

win turned aside 25 shots, in-cluding several rapid-fire re-bounds in the final period, to preserve the shutout. Irwin said he felt much bet-ter going into Game 3 at home than he did starting the previ-ous game in Carrot River. “I just tried to stay calm and cool and collected,” Irwin said in an interview after the game. “I give a lot of credit to the guys playing in front of me. They made some pretty big hits and some nice plays, and it made a difference. I just tried to keep my head in the game and stay focused on making the saves and giving our team a chance.” Game 4 in the seven-game series went Friday night, March 9, in Carrot River. Norris said the Chiefs didn’t take anything for grant-ed going into the last game of the series. “Tri-Town is a good team, and they’ve shown they can play at this level. The game to close out a series is al-ways the hardest game to win, especially on the road. Those kids in Carrot River have been up there for five or six months now and I don’t think they want to quit playing hock-ey yet, so it should be a tough game. But if we come prepared for it, I’m confident we can close it out.” Norris said they weren’t particular about whether they take on the Saskatoon Roy-als or the Saskatoon Quakers in the Prairie Junior Hockey League (PJHL) North Division final. The Quakers beat the

Royals 4 games to 1 in the oth-er North Division playoff race, having earned a 6-5 overtime win on Wednesday, March 7 and following that up with a decisive 7-3 win on Friday, March 9. The next series between the Chiefs and the Quakers will determine the PJHL North Division champions, who take on the South Division winners in the league final for the pro-vincial title and the right to represent Saskatchewan in the Keystone Cup tournament April 19-22 in Saskatoon.

He noted the organization is moving toward more “devel-opment” projects as opposed to straight food aid. “We’re actually doing more food security projects all the time so that people don’t have to depend so heavily on food aid,” he said. “By giving them tools and teaching them better farming practices then they can help themselves. It’s about giving people a hand up, rather than a handout.”SASK VALLEY PROJECTSTARTED IN 1978 The CFB is preparing to celebrate its 30th anniversa-ry next year in Saskatchewan with an old-fashioned harvest near Langenburg using doz-ens of threshing machines. But the Sask Valley branch of the organization has an even longer history. Dave and Tina Buhler, Corney and Ann Derksen, and Abe and Mary Braun were among three couples who were involved in the chari-table initiative from the very beginning. Abe Derksen has since passed away, but the oth-ers were on hand at the sup-per, and provided some back-ground to the origin of the local organization. “I think it was in 1978 when our church received a letter from the Mennonite Cen-tral Committee that said they

were planning to do something about starting a local food grains bank,” recalled Dave Buhler. “They invited our church to be a partner in this. It happened we had 12 minis-ters, and I was one of htem,a nd they asked me to represent the Bergthaler Church in the group, so that’s how I got in-volved.” Buhler asked his good friend Corney Derksen to help out, and the first auction sale was held on Derksen’s land. “Corney and Ann had bought an acreage that had a house on it, but there was nobody liv-ing there at the time,” he re-called. “We had all this stuff donated and it was just left out there, so Abe and Mary Braun brought their camper out to the site and camped there to keep an eye on everything and make sure nothing got vandal-ized or stolen.” Buhler said the first sale raised $15,000, and the next year it raised $13,000. “But every year since then the amount that’s been raised has been going up,” he noted. “But we don’t want to take any credit personally. It’s just the Lord working through us, and to god be the whole glory.” Buhler said he and Derk-sen went on a study tour to In-dia with the MCC the year af-ter they held the first auction

sale. “When we reported back to the community and told them about the good things that the food bank was accom-plishing, that really helped the auction sale take off,” he said. “Now, it’s not just one or two churches involved, it’s the whole Valley area.” John Enns, treasurer of the Sask Valley Foodgrains Bank, agreed the auction sale, and the fundraising supper htat precedes it, have become a tradition in the area. “We set up the supper as a way of offsetting the costs incurred for the auction sale,” Ens said. “But the funds that have been coming in for the supper itself have far exceed-ed our expenses of the sale, so what we do now is roll the extra money from the supper into the overall proceeds from the auction sale, and that helps bring up the total funds raised for the foodgrains bank.” Enns said the upcoming auction sale will be the 31st annual event. “The supper has been go-ing on for 22 years,” he add-ed. “The amount of volunteer time and effort that goes into it is substantial. We purchase the meat and perogies, but all the baking, and a lot of oth-er stuff is all donated by local people.”

FOODGRAINS Continued from Page 7

John Enns, treasurer of the local foodgrains bank (top left), said the supper raised a total of $21,500 in a single night. The mon-ey will be used to help the Canadian Foodgrains Bank program-ming in countries around the world. Above, Dave Meier (far left) of Star City, Saskatchewan Regional Coordinator for the Canadian Foodgrains Bank talks with Corney Derksen (centre) and Dave Buhler, two of the original committee members who started the Sask. Valley Fundraising Auction in 1978. Below, Tina Buhler (left), Ann Derksen (centre) and Mary Braun were also part of the original committee.

prizes.

The judges were Mr. Bren-nan, Mr. Elke, Mr. Kehler and Miss Wouters. After everyone repeated the 4-H pledge, the speeches began and in Clover-buds from Crown Hill Court-ney Yaseniuk spoke on goats and her baby goat and Chey-anne Roth spoke on her fish-ing trip, from Borden Light Horse Savannah Sutherland spoke on their Family Trip to Florida and Colton Hanley told about fishing with his family. In Juniors from Crown Hill Abigail Roth talked about deer hunting, Justin Yaseniuk on visiting Grandma and Grand-pa, from Borden Club Rachel Sutherland spoke of the fam-ily trip to New Zealand and Taryn Hanley spoke about fig-ure skating and their backyard rink, and from Sask Dairy

Cobi Quiring talked about her favorite animal- the horse and Chelsea van Rootselaar told ev-eryone of her trip to the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto.

From Borden Melissa Saunders told all about whip- cracking from how the whip is made, what you can do with it and where you can go to perform, and from Sask Dairy Logan Leyenhorst spoke on basketball and how it is more than just a game. The judges then gave their remarks stat-

ing that the members all did very well, had great topics, spoke from the heart, many had great delivery and clar-ity, some read their notes too much therefore speaking too fast and did not make enough eye contact , but overall there was tremendous variety, prep-aration and enthusiasm.

DALMENY SABRES NOVICETEAM SVHL CHAMPSThe Dalmeny Sabres Novice hockey team won the Sask Valley Minor Hockey League gold medal in their home rink on Monday, March 12, after defeating the Cudworth Stars 6-1 in the second game of a two-game series. They won Game 1 by a score of 10-3. The cham-pionship topped off a dream season, as the team won 18 games in a row in the league regular season and playoffs. They lost only two games, both in tourna-ments, during the season. The team consists of (not in order) Nolin Attwater, Ben Lindberg, Matthew Goldak, Braeden Bzovey, Justin Colter, Jackson Attwater, Sever-in Peterson, Nolan Lindberg, Nathan Flodell, Owen Hu-ber, Tayce Schlosser, Jace Kallis, Jacob McKinley, Ever-ett Perret, Carson Wright, Aidan Collard, Peter Bzovey (Head Coach), Quintin Attwater (Assistant Coach), Eden Huber (Assistant Coach), Darren Lindberg (Assistant Coach), Brandon Peterson (Trainer).

VIPERSContinued from Page 14

Priel agreed the improved de-fensive effort made a difference in the later stages of the game. “In the first period we had too many turn-overs,” he said. “We talked to the de-fensemen in the first intermission and got them to settle down a bit more and play a simple, defensive game and head-man the puck out of our end. They did that in the sec-ond period and we got 20 shots on goal. When we get pressure on oth-er teams we can score a lot of goals, especially when the first-year guys contribute offensively.” Priel expects the series against the Wolfpack, a combined Melfort-Tisdale team, to be close. The Wolf-pack finished second in the regular series standings, just one point back of the Vipers. “They’re a strong team and a hard-working team,” said Priel. “They go full speed all over the ice, so it should be a good battle.”
