Five years may wipe out many thingsBut this they’ll wipe out never.

The memory of those happy daysWhen we were all together.We think of Dallas in silence,

His name we often recallBut there’s nothing left to answer

But his picture on the wall.Just when his life was brightest,Just when his hopes were best,God called him from amoung us

To a home of eternal life.With love in our hearts forever,

There was plenty of mud fly-ing in Dundurn as the local Li-ons Club celebrated their an-nual mud racing event’s 20th anniversary. The official title of the event is ‘20 Years of Mud.’ It started as a get-together for people to have fun with trucks, said orga-nizer Gary Grady. ”In the beginning there were about only 40 spectators watching this event. Yesterday we had 700 people here,” said Grady. “A lot if the racers come from northern Saskatchewan and Edmonton. In previous years we have had people come from the United States, but this year most are local.” There were about 50 stock vehicles of all shapes and siz-es racing down a 220-foot track with 12 to 14 inches of mud, making it a fun spectacle to see for truck enthusiasts of all ages, said Grady. “We don’t run a sanctioned race. We have done what you would call an outlaw race be-cause they have a determined

pay scale for the vehicles. We kind of mix it up a bit, we pay for appearances. We add the tough trucks to it, the lawn mowers and then at the end a burn out contest,” said Grady.

Grady said he didn’t know when this event started that it would be so successful. ”We always talked about the success of it and never thought it would get this far. I used to

A brazen daylight robbery attempt at a jewelry store in Saskatoon’s Lawson Heights Mall was foiled by two bystand-ers who nabbed the would-be thief and wrestled him to the ground. Rob Reddekopp of Warman witnessed the takedown, which occurred around noon on Tuesday, September 9. He said the suspect was dressed in a high-visi-bility safety vest, hard hat and sunglass-es and wielded a small wrecking bar. The thief tried to smash the glass display case with the metal bar but was unsuccessful. Two bystanders witnessed the attempt-ed robbery and, with the help of security officers, overpowered the thief and held him on the ground while calling the po-lice. Saskatoon Police officers arrived on the scene a few minutes later and took the suspect into custody. No one was in-jured in the incident and nothing was stolen. “It was not what you’d expect to see in the middle of the day in a crowded mall,” said Reddekopp in an interview. A 26-year-old male is facing charges of Theft Over $5,000 and Mischief Under $5,000. No one was injured during the inci-dent.

Housing starts in the Saskatoon Census Metropolitan Area (CMA) were trending at 3,535 units in August compared to 3,090 in July, according to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC). “The trend in total housing starts moved higher in August after local home builders in-creased production of both sin-gle-detached and multi-family units. A higher absorption rate at completion and declining in-ventory of complete and unab-sorbed units have supported the rise in housing starts this year,” said Goodson Mwale, CMHC’s Senior Market Analyst for Saskatchewan. The standalone monthly SAAR was 4,961 units in Au-gust, up from 2,478 in July. While actual housing starts in-creased in both the single-de-tached and multi-family sec-tors, the gain in August was most pronounced among multi-ples where 182 apartments were started compared to 71 in Au-gust 2013.

Workers locked out at oat mill Workers at the Richard-son International-owned oat milling facility north of Mar-tensville are still locked out a week after rejecting the com-pany’s final offer. The 34 workers at the oat mill, members of the United Food and Commercial Work-ers (UFCW) Canada Local 1400, were locked out Wednes-day evening, September 10. They have been manning an information picket line at the entrance to the mill since then. “We’ve been locked out since last Wednesday at 7 p.m.,” said Greg Beal, a work-er at the mill who serves as shop steward for the union lo-cal and is also a member of the union’s bargaining com-mittee. “We want to go back to work, but the company won’t let us. They haven’t even attempted to contact us to talk about continuing con-

tract negotiations.” Company managers are currently keeping the mill operating. Tracy Shelton, Director of Corporate Communications for Richardson International, said in a statement to report-ers last week that the com-pany provided a final offer that gave employees the same terms and coditions they have now, along with wage increases, based on perfor-mance, above market level. The mill was purchased by Richardson Milling from Viterra last May. The work-ers’ contract with the for-mer owner expired October 31, 2013, and they have been without a collective bargain-ing agreement since then. The union and employer have been in negotiations for the past eight months, accord-ing to Norm Neault, Presi-dent of UFCW Canada Local 1400. “The union has been at-tempting to reach industry-standard wages, and a fair

UFCW Local 1400 Shop Steward Greg Beal (third from right) and other workers at the Richardson International oat mill north of Martensville on Highway 12 formed an informational picket line on Monday, September 15. The workers were locked out on Wednesday, September 10.

pay scale based on experi-ence,” said Neault. “The con-tract payment scheme under Viterra hasn’t worked well for these employees. They were locked out under Vit-erra, and they made a con-scious decision to try that system, but it hasn’t worked out very well for the majority of employees, so they’re look-ing to go back to a more tradi-tional form of compensation so they know what hourly wage they are making and what they can expect for an increase.” Neault said the union ta-bled a counter-proposal to the employer’s final offer last week, but has not received a response. The union is asking for across-the board wage in-creases, while the company wants to base pay increases on performance. In an interview on Monday, September 15 at the entrance to the mill, where union members have set up an in-

formational picket line, Beal said the workers are also seeking “clarification” and “certainty” in wage grids. “Right now there’s a lot of uncertainty about how much we’re actually getting paid,” said Beal. “We don’t know where we lie for the year and for the coming year. Certain-ty and clarification would be a big help.” Beal said truckers hauling loads to the mill are not be-ing hampered from doing so. “We talk to them and ex-plain the reason we’re here,” Beal said. “We’re not prevent-ing anyone from delivering. We ask them to deliver some-where else if they can, but it’s their choice. For us, we don’t have a choice. We’re here be-cause the company locked us out. We’re not on strike.” Shelton said in her state-ment that the company is hopeful the dispute will be resolved, but was not able to provide a timeline for a re-turn to negotiations.

The Government of Saskatch-ewan, in partnership with the federal government, is aiming to make a west-central highway safer. On September 11, MP for Sas-katoon-Rosetown-Biggar Kel-ly Block – along with Martens-ville MLA and Minister of Highways and Infrastructure Nancy Heppner – met in Delisle to announce a $7.6 million dol-lar project to build passing lanes on Highway 7 southwest of Saskatoon. “We set aside $3.8 million in funding for this project, which the province will match and that is part of a much big-ger envelope under the Provin-cial Territorial Infrastructure Fund (PTIF),” said Block, add-ing that PTIF funding amounts to $10 billion over 10 years and $1 billion of that amount is re-served for the Small Commu-nities Fund. The entire project includes 16 passing lanes between Zea-landia and Laura. Heppner said traveling on Highway 7 will be a whole lot safer for residents who live along the route and for those who commute to and from Saskatoon. “I think anyone who has driven this highway under-stands that it is not just the traffic on the road that makes it difficult to pass, it is the sight lines. There are a lot of trees, curves and it is a bit

hilly,” said Heppner. “It does make it really difficult to pass. I have driven this highway a lot. You see people taking chances that are not necessar-ily the safest. This will allow people to make safer choices and have safer options.” Block said another benefit of the project highlights the im-portance of Highway 7 to both Saskatchewan and Alberta. “[Highway 7] is the main cor-ridor from Saskatoon through to Calgary. This project is going to be a huge benefit in terms of economic growth for both prov-inces.” Heppner said Highway 7 sees about 3,000 vehicles a day with heavy trucks making up 25 per cent of that number. Dave Anderchek, mayor of Delisle, said the announcement will be very good for the com-munity. “The Ministry of High-ways and Infrastructure is showing progress on the high-way so we know they are try-ing to make improvements. We know there are budgets in-volved but putting in passing lanes from here to Rosetown is a good start.” Anderchek said he is hoping the ministry will continue its positive attitude with twinning the highway from Saskatoon to Delisle, which was an an-nouncement the Government of Saskatchewan made in last year’s budget. The MOHI is hoping to have two of the passing lanes com-pleted before the end of this construction season.

Greater Saskatoon Catholic Schools (GSCS) awarded R.S. Management Services a con-tract to test and identify all as-bestos containing materials in division schools. The recommendation was made at a GSCS Meeting on September 8 after a request for proposals was sent out on July 3. The close date for the RFP was July 22.

By JAMES [email protected]

Catholic schools testing for asbestos GSCS Superintendent Joel Lloyd said the testing will help the division pinpoint any mate-rials containing asbestos. “We are preparing a final re-port that will be sent to the as-bestos registry with the prov-ince,” said Lloyd. “Then once the report is completed they will rate the schools which may be at high risk.” Lloyd said right now there haven’t been any schools that have been identified as high risk or contain items that are

in direct contact with chil-dren. The request for identifying asbestos in schools came after legislation was passed by the Government of Saskatchewan to create the asbestos registry last year. Lloyd said he couldn’t dis-close the amount for the con-tact, but said it will be paid 100 per cent by the GSCD. The completion date of the contract is anticipated to be December 31.

Saskatchewan medical stu-dents are taking advantage of opportunities to learn more about practising in rural Sas-katchewan. A total of 40 University of Saskatchewan (U of S) med-ical students participated in saskdocs’ Rural Externship Program (PREP) to experi-ence medicine in rural and remote communities this past summer. This is the highest participation rate for the pro-gram since saskdocs was es-tablished in 2011. The students are all now beginning their third year of study. They shadowed prac-ticing physicians in 24 com-munities to gain valuable ex-perience that will help them make future decisions about where to work and what type of medicine to practice. Ev-idence shows that the earli-er a medical student is ex-posed to a community, the more likely it is that individ-ual will return to practice in the same location after grad-uation. “Our government is ful-ly committed to keeping Sas-

katchewan-trained medical students here in the province to practise after they grad-uate,” Minister Responsible for Rural and Remote Health Tim McMillan said. “We want these bright young minds to stay, contribute to our grow-ing province and help us build an exceptional, patient-first health care system.” PREP is a program joint-ly delivered by saskdocs, the Saskatchewan Medical As-sociation (SMA) and the U of S College of Medicine. Physi-cians, Saskatchewan’s health regions and numerous oth-er partners are all integral to the success of the program as well. “Recruiting and retaining our U of S Medical Graduates is our number one priority,” said saskdocs’ I/CEO Erin Brady. “PREP is designed spe-cifically for U of S medical students to gain exposure to rural and re-mote communities and prac-tice in the province. An in-formal survey conducted by saskdocs of past PREP partic-ipants indicated that close to

Medical students learn more about rural Sask. practices

90 per cent of them would con-sider practicing in the com-munities in which they were placed.” “The SMA is pleased to sup-port and participate in PREP and build on the work of the SMA’s Roadmap Program for Students and Residents,” said Dr. Dalibor Slavik, President of the SMA. “We know that early and continued exposure to rural practice will lead to more graduates establishing themselves in a rural commu-nity. The Roadmap Program and PREP will lay the founda-tion for better care for rural patients in the years to come.” PREP is funded by the Min-istry of Health through the Saskatchewan Medical Asso-ciation’s Committee on Rural and Regional Practice. Medical learners not only benefit from the program, so do the communities, clinics and physicians as they get a chance to showcase their re-gion, community and practice to up and coming physicians. A total of 114 U of S medical students have participated in PREP since 2011.

The following is the local me-dia release for the Warman De-tachment of the Royal Cana-dian Mounted Police for the week of September 9 to Septem-ber 15. The Warman RCMP De-tachment serves the area north and west of Saskatoon, with de-tachment offices in the com-munities of Warman, Martens-ville, Radisson and Delisle.

WHAT’S IN THE SKY? On September 11 at 4:30 p.m. police received a complaint of a suspicious object in the sky above Highway 11, near Waneskewin Road. The call-er reports that they saw some-thing in the sky that looked like a swirling cloud. The ob-ject made a twirling motion and then flashed and the ob-ject came down towards the ground. The caller felt it might have been some type of aircraft crashing. Police did patrols in the area but did not locate any-thing. No further calls were re-ceived.

TRAILER WIRING LOOSE On September 9 at 8:00 p.m. police received a complaint of a trailer travelling on Highway 11 near Warman that did not have operating lights. The call-er was concerned that the vehi-cle would cause an accident as it was difficult to see. Police at-tended and located the vehicle. They conducted a traffic stop and found that the connection was loose on the lights. The connection was repaired and the driver was sent on his way. There were no charges and no one was injured.

WARMAN COLLISION On September 11 at 5:10 p.m. police received a complaint of a two-vehicle collision in Warman. A 56-year-old female from Warman received minor injuries. A 39-year-old male from Warman was charged with proceeding from a stop sign before safe to do so.

IMPAIRED DRIVER On September 11 at 6:55 p.m. police received a complaint of an erratic driver on Highway 7 near Vanscoy. Police made pa-trols and located the vehicle a short time later. The 25-year-old male driver of the vehi-cle from Calgary was found to have consumed alcohol. He was transported to the RCMP De-tachment to provide a breath sample. He was released on charges of impaired driving for an upcoming court date.

ANOTHER IMPAIRED On September 12 at 5:55 p.m. police received a complaint of a possible impaired driver on Highway 11 near Osler. Police attended and located the ve-hicle. A 22-year-old male was found to be operating the vehi-cle. He appeared to have con-sumed alcohol and was taken back to the Detachment to pro-vide a breath sample. He was released on documents for an upcoming court date on charg-es of impaired driving. There were no injuries.

BLEW PAST STOP SIGN On September 13 at 2:15 p.m. police received a complaint of a two-vehicle accident in Warman. Police attended and found that a 17-year-old female from Saskatoon failed to stop

at a stop sign and was hit by a second vehicle that was driv-en by a 75-year-old female from Warman. The driver of the vehicle from Saskatoon was charged for failing to stop at the stop sign. There were no in-juries. Both vehicles were dam-aged and required towing from the scene.

DRUNK DRIVER PICKED UP On September 14 at 2:15 p.m. police received a complaint of a possible impaired driver on Highway 16 near Langham. Police were on patrol in the area and located the 35-year-old male from North Battleford who was operating the vehicle. He was found to be operating the vehicle after consuming al-cohol. He was taken back to De-tachment to provide a breath sample. He was released on doc-uments for an upcoming court date on charges of impaired driving. There were no inju-ries.

DISTRACTED AT WHEEL On September 14 at 4:45 p.m. police received a complaint of a two-vehicle collision on High-way 11 near Waneskewin Road. The caller reports that he was stopped for a train when he was rear ended by another vehicle. Police attended and found that the 22-year-old driver of the ve-hicle from Pinehouse Lake ad-mitted that he was looking at his phone and rear ended the vehicle in front of him. He was issued two tickets for driving without due care and attention and failing to follow his license restrictions. There were no in-juries.

VEHICLE BROKEN INTO On September 8 at 8:30 a.m. police received a complaint of a break and enter to a vehicle in Warman. The caller reports that his window was broken in his vehicle and he had a num-ber of small items taken from the vehicle. Investigation into this matter is ongoing.

THEFT FROM BUSINESS On September 8 at 11:15 a.m. police received a complaint of a break and enter to a busi-ness in the Saskatoon Industri-al area. Various tools were tak-en from a shed at the location. Investigation into this matter is ongoing.

DOOR OPENED On September 10 at 9:45 p.m. police received a complaint of a door open to a residence in Martensville. The caller is a neighbor to the residence and felt it was strange that the door was open as the neighbor was away. Police attended and found that the door had accidentally opened and that the residence was not broken into.

Taxpayers tell Harperto lower, simplify taxes

By the standards of costly Crown corporation screw-ups, the Saskatchewan Party will argue that the smart meter fi-asco isn’t the biggest.

Government supporters will be quick to point out that the NDP/Sask Water Spudco fiasco that cost taxpayers some $38 million with nothing to show for a return was far more cost-ly. And they will be even more adamant now that SaskPower has reached an arrangement with Sensus; the American manufacturer of the defective smart meters; on compensa-tion. In fact, both SaskPower and the Sask. Party are already spinning the notion that the deal reached recovers the en-tire $47-million cost. Their math is questionable. Under the agreement reached with Sensus, Sask-Power gets a $24-million cash refund for the meters al-ready installed or bought. Our Crown electrical utility also gets an $18-million credit that will go toward any future pur-chase of Sensus meters and $5 million in research and devel-opment of a new “next genera-tion meter”. That may add up to the re-call cost, but it all hinges on doing more business with Sen-sus and doesn’t include the $30-million cost to install and uninstall after 10 of the units caught on fire. And then there is the le-gitimate question as to why any compensation agreement should have had to have been negotiated at all. Shouldn’t most of this have been built

right into the purchase agree-ment contract with Sensus? It sure was in other agree-ments Sensus signed with util-ities much, much smaller. For example, the tiny Eu-gene Water and Electric Board (EWEB); a community-owned utility serving 86,000 homes in Eugene, Oregon; seemed to do a far better job of its home-work before getting into its smart meter contract with Sensus. In a 2013 memo to its cus-tomers/shareholders public-ly released and available on the internet, EWEB outlines how it awarded the smart me-ter contract to Sensus over 13 other applicants even though it had misgivings that “Sen-sus has not been in the elec-tric meter manufacturing business as long as other pro-posers, and appears to be en-countering growing pains as-sociated with being new to this market.” But according to the public memo, the $26-million contract

with EWEB has a $2.3-million “hold-back” provision “to be paid only when the system is fully installed, an “off-ramp” that is “in direct response to various challenges incurred by other utilities”, “milestone payments” to insure meters are working correctly and a “predefined Final Acceptance Criteria (FAC)” in the case of “unusually high rates of equip-ment failure” that would states “Sensus will repair, at their expense, any issues that arise that would cause the system to perform at less than the FAC criteria.” How a tiny local utility seemed to get all this in writ-ing beforehand when Sask-Power appears to have had to negotiate a settlement is an in-teresting question. But a bet-ter question is how we can find out more about Sensus’s con-tract in Eugene, Oregon than we can about SaskPower’s own deal with Sensus here at home. After months of asking for details on the decision-making

SaskPower and its sorry smart meter sagaprocess on the Sensus contract and getting no real answers, the Regina Leader-Post applied through the province’s Free-dom of Information legislation for documents pertaining to SaskPower’s negotiations with Sensus and the installers who put in the smart meters. The newspaper was told it would cost $57.000 for that in-formation. This from a public utility we own that claims it has “offered as much informa-tion as is possible.” Of course, the Sask. Party can rightly argue that Sask-Power was equally mum dur-ing the NDP years about the Channel Lake fiasco and its at-tempt to buy the Guyana Elec-trical Company during the NDP days. This is true. But Sask. Party supporters might also recall that heads rolled at both SaskPower and SaskWater for those past mess-es. And they should also re-member that we own SaskPow-er and it’s accountable to us.

The act of naming or pho-tographing a youth involved in a violent crime is a de-bate that has been discussed

since the Youth Criminal Jus-tice Act (and before that the Young Offenders Act and be-fore that the Juvenile Delin-quents Act) was created many years ago. In this debate there are two theories: one suggests that young offenders should be

JAMESTARRANTPrairie Screechin’

named because public humil-iation would be a deterrent to stop youth from becoming re-peat offenders. The other theory maintains that if a young offender’s iden-tity is publicized, the stig-ma associated with the crime will ruin future employment opportunities for the youth, which would lead them to re-commit the crime. Last week a 13-year-old Warman boy was sentenced for stabbing a female class-mate last fall. The boy was originally charged with at-tempted murder but pleaded guilty to a lesser charge of ag-gravated assault in May. As a result of his serious

Youth Criminal Justice Act does nothing to protect victims of violent crimeassault, he will serve a two-year sentence, which involves spending eight months in a youth facility, followed by eight months of open custody and another eight months of community supervision. Did the punishment fit the crime? If you were to ask the vic-tim I am sure the answer would be ‘no.’ The emotional trauma of being stabbed mul-tiple times and having a fin-ger almost completely severed are mental wounds that won’t heal anytime soon. The media has a duty to re-port on crime and answer the ‘who,’ ‘what,’ ‘when,’ and ‘why’ questions when a violent in-

cident occurs because it is in the public’s interest. More importantly, newspa-pers for years have worked with RCMP and local police to help catch individuals or alert the public about a dangerous offender. But under the Youth Crim-inal Justice Act, we can’t do that, which kind of makes it seem like the Canadian jus-tice system is playing Russian roulette with public safety. We hope there are group homes, community or mental health groups that can help reform young adults who com-mit violent crimes. It is true young people need a great support network made up of

friends and family to direct them down the right path. What happens to youth who don’t have that positive net-work? Will their culture of de-feat be used as an excuse for their crime? According to a Public Safe-ty Canada report, boys are 30 per cent more likely than girls to engage in violent behavour. The report also notes Sas-katchewan has the third high-est rate of youth assaults in Canada behind Nunavut and the North West Territories. In a small city like Warman most people know who this boy is, his friends, classmates and people in the community. You would think the stigma

of living in a small communi-ty would deter him from com-mitting that horrific assault again. If it does it raises an inter-esting point about publicizing a young offender’s crime, be-ing that humiliation works. I mean if someone goes out of their way to violently as-sault someone, they have giv-en up their right to live in civilized society. Maybe the publicity would play a part in protecting the public so it doesn’t happen again. It seems that when it comes to this act there is more emphasis on protecting the offender rather than the victim.

By Gregory ThomasCanadian Taxpayers’ Federation

With MPs returning to Ottawa for the final round of Par-liamentary business before the 2015 federal election, the Ca-

nadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) released results of a supporter survey completed over the three days that shows broad support for paying down debt and providing lower, sim-pler personal income taxes. More than 5,000 CTF supporters respond-ed to the survey, with 2,500 providing addi-tional written advice to the federal finance minister. With the federal budget headed for a sur-plus ahead of the next election, paying down the federal debt was the top priority of 52 per cent of CTF supporters, while 44 per cent want to reduce taxes. Given an either/or choice between across-the-board tax cuts for everybody and in-come-splitting, CTF supporters chose lower rates and fewer brackets by a wide margin – 72 per cent in favour, compared to 22 per cent who want income splitting. Only 14 per cent, of CTF supporters said they would personal-ly benefit from the government’s current in-come splitting proposal. Despite only 9 per cent of CTF supporters picking the government’s income splitting proposal as their top choice for a tax cut, 52 per cent said they would support the Harper government if it goes ahead with the plan in the next budget, while 21 per cent would op-pose it and 22 per cent are still on the fence. CTF supporters’ willingness to get behind income splitting reflects a pragmatic inter-est in lower taxes. When asked for the best way to cut taxes if the government targets only families with children, 27 per cent said stay-at-home par-ents should be able to claim the child care deduction currently available only to par-ents who pay outside providers for child

care, while 26 per cent favoured income splitting. 17 per cent want to see the child tax credit raised.

Firefighters pay tribute to fallen colleagues



Every September 11 for the past 13 years, firefighters in Martensville and Warman have raised the Stars and Stripes at sunrise, and lowered it at sunset, in solemn tribute to the men and women who lost their lives protecting others during the terror-ist attacks that shook the world in 2001. “We started this tribute the first year after the 2001 attacks, and we’ve done it every year since,” said Warman Deputy Fire Chief Russ Austin in an interview at the city’s fire hall at sunrise on September 11. “That day was a real catalyst for peo-ple to remember those who fell in the line of duty. The firefighters, police officers, EMS and first responders; the sheer number of people who gave their lives in the line of duty; made us think about that, and we’ve done this memorial tribute ever since.” Austin served for many years as Deputy Fire Chief in Martensville before moving to his new position in Warman. His colleagues in Martens-ville continue the tradition. “We do the flag-raising and lower-ing as a way of honouring firefight-ers and protective service members who lost their lives on that terrible, sad day,” said Martensville Deputy Fire Chief Dean Brooman in an in-terview. “We want to show that their sacrifice is not in vain and that we will continue to respect them and what they did.” Austin said about 2,000 fire, po-lice and EMS services hold similar memorial services every September 11 across North America. None of these memorial services are official-ly sanctioned by any government. “It’s simply a show of support for our brothers and sisters in protec-tive services organizations every-where,” said Austin.

Summer was a busy time at the Martensville Library with the TD Summer Reading Club for kids. The Martensville Library had another successful program with 320 regis-tered.The kids were kept busy mak-ing weekly crafts, completing week-ly challenges, playing I-Spy and Bingo and reading. Through the summer, kids registered in the pro-gram read 4,117 books and com-pleted 956 hours of reading. It was great to have so many kids partic-ipate and be excited about reading and visiting the library. As the weather turns, so does the programming focus of the Martens-ville Library. Starting this fall, we are excited to have a dedicated pro-gram room for our library which will make it easier to host pro-grams/events. We are always on the lookout for program ideas and en-courage our patrons to let us know

their ideas on programs they would like to see at the branch. Our Story Time program re-sumes the week of September 22. This fall, our branch will be hold-ing Story Time two times per week – Monday and Thursday at 10:15 a.m. It will be the same program on both days, and we ask that peo-ple only attend one time per week. We have decided to try the two days in order to accommodate the num-ber of children wishing to attend the program. It is a drop-in pro-gram for preschool aged children and parent/caregiver participation is required. Kids will enjoy stories, songs and craft in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Our Library Book Club continues to meet on the third or last Wednes-day of the month. Members take turns hosting and choosing what books the club will read. If anyone is interested in join, please contact us at the library and we will put you in touch with our coordinator.

Warman Fire and Rescue celebrates half century of service to community


PHOTOS BY TERRY PUGH | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

A sellout crowd packed the Brian King Centre in Warman on Saturday, Septem-ber 13 to celebrate the 50th an-niversary of the Warman Fire Department. Now known as Warman Fire and Rescue, the depart-ment grew from humble roots. Warman Deputy Fire Chief Russ Austin told the crowd that in 1964, a notice was sent out to Warman residents by town clerk P.B. Janzen advis-ing that a six-member volun-teer fire brigade had been es-tablished. At that time, the mem-bership consisted of: Fire Chief Jacob P. Dyck, Deputy Chief Elmer Boehr, Firefight-ers John Friesen, Bill Red-dekopp, Abe Wall and Ches-ter Grabowski. The note to residents listed the individu-al phone numbers of the mem-bers. The fire department grew as the community expanded over the years, and training and equipment has also im-proved, said Austin. “Today, we have a ful-ly-trained fire and rescue service that consists of 29 firefighters certified to pro-fessional standards, with the majority also trained as First Responders for medical emer-gencies,” said Austin. “We re-spond to approximately 300 calls per year.” Warman Mayor Sheryl Spence said fifty years was a memorable milestone. Not-ing that firefighters devote “countless hours” to training in order to serve their com-munity and protect the lives and property of residents of Warman as well as surround-

ing communities through mutual-aid agreements with neighbouring fire depar-temnts, she said their efforts are very much appreciated. The commitment and ded-ication of several members was recognized at the event. Five-year service awards were given to Battalion Chief Kev-in Schwartz, Lieutenant Bob Fenner, Firefighters Jason Coutts, Wes Hrapchak and Sean McCallen. Firefight-ers Brian Revest and Albert Taylor were presented with awards for 25 years service. Fire Chief Gord Thompson was honoured for his 35 years with the department, and a special award was given to re-tired firefighter Bill Braun for having served 43 years.

The 50th anniversary dine and dance celebration hon-oured firefighters, police, EMS and military personnel. A silent auction with sports memorabilia was a successful fundraiser. A “Pick of the lit-ter” raffle draw allowed the winner to choose one of five autographed hockey jerseys:

A Warman youth who plead-ed guilty to aggravated assault earlier this year will be facing 16 months in custody as part of a two-year sentence. The 14-year-old youth, who cannot be identified under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, was sentenced in provincial court on Tuesday, September 9 to eight months in secure cus-tody, eight months in open cus-tody, and eight months of super-vised release. The boy was originally charged with attempted mur-der for the stabbing of a 13-year-

Youth sentenced forrole in Warman stabbing

old girl in Warman on Septem-ber 13, 2013. The charge was downgraded to aggravated as-sault, and he was found guilty of the lesser charge. The girl was stabbed in the throat sev-eral times, as well as suffering lacerations to her thigh, stom-ach and one finger. Court was told that a psy-chological assessment found the boy to be a low risk to reof-fend. The female victim of the assault has undergone numer-ous surgeries, and while she is healing physically, the psycho-logical damage is very deep.

As part of the government’s ongoing commitment to traf-fic safety in high-risk traf-fic areas, two new locations have been added to the photo speed enforcement pilot proj-ect. Highway 12 at Martens-ville and Highway 1 East be-tween Pilot Butte and White City will both receive photo speed enforcement units. “Reducing fatalities and in-juries on Saskatchewan roads and highways is a top pri-ority,” Minister responsible for SGI Don McMorris said. “There has been significant growth in the communities of Martensville, White City and Emerald Park in recent years, leading to increased traffic volumes and risk of col-

lisions, which is why we add-ed these locations to the pi-lot. Introducing photo speed enforcement builds on our earlier action of lowering the speed limit to 90 km/hr on these stretches to help calm traffic and make them safer. By slowing down, you have a better chance of surviving a crash.” The goal is for zero tickets to be issued and for zero col-lisions to occur in these lo-cations. However, any reve-nue generated through photo speed enforcement will be des-ignated for traffic safety ini-tiatives, after covering costs of the cameras. “We would be thrilled to see zero tickets and zero revenue,

Photo radar planned for Highway 12 at Martensvillebecause that would mean no one is speeding through these high-risk corridors,” McMor-ris said. “Our goal is to pre-vent traffic deaths and inju-ries.” The previously-announced photo speed enforcement pilot project locations include:* Ring Road in Regina* Circle Drive in Saskatoon* intersection of Highway 1 and 9th Avenue in Moose Jaw* selected school zones in Re-

gina, Saskatoon and Moose Jaw The pilot is expected to be-gin mid-October, in the ab-sence of delays due to factors such as poor weather which could impact construction and installation. To ensure drivers are aware they are ap-proaching a photo speed en-forcement location, all loca-tions will be clearly marked with signs, which will be erected this fall.

Brayden Heck of the Martensville Royals kicks a 40 yard field goal during a night game under the lights in Delisle

The Delisle Rebels put on a scoring clinic last Friday, Sep-tember 12, defeating the Mar-tensville Royals 35-21 in a high school football game under the lights in Delisle. It was the first game of the sea-son for both teams, which is al-ways a fun rivalry, said Rebels head coach Ken Byers. ”It is always a cat and mouse game of chess between us. Part-ly because of our friendship and the joking around after the game,” said Byers. Byers said playing a night game once a year is a great envi-ronment to bring the community and school together. The Rebels and Royals didn’t disappoint. In the opening frame Rebels’ quarterback James Shirley got his team on the board with a a touchdown run minutes into the game, but their field goal was blocked by the Royals, allowing for a 6-0 Rebels lead. The Royals scored a field goal on the next possession when the Rebels stingy defence wouldn’t allow them a run into the end zone. It wasn’t too long before Reb-els’ running back Sam Mich-nik lit up the score board with a four yard major to give his team a 12-3 lead, but the Royals fought back with a run of their own to close the scoring gap to 12-10 at the end of the first quarter. In the second quarter tempers started to flare as the Rebels and Royals each had a player ejected from the game for a shoving me-lee. For most of the second quarter both teams showed their defen-sive muscle, which didn’t allow for many runs. But with less than four min-utes to go in the quarter the Reb-els’ Reid Dubkowski found a way to push his team to within a yard and a half away from the Royals goal line, which allowed Shirley and Michnik to connect on a wide run right to score a touchdown. The convert was also good, giving the Rebels a 19-11 lead. In the third quarter it was all Rebels as Shirley and Michnik connected for two touchdowns and a two-point convert to jump ahead with a commanding 35-11

lead over the Royals to close out the third quarter. In the fourth quarter the Roy-als showed that they were not go-ing to go down without a fight, scoring a 40-yard field goal to make the score 35-14 and adding an end-to-end touchdown with 28 seconds left on the clock. But it wasn’t enough as the Rebels went on to win the game 35-21. Byers said it was a tough game to play for his team, main-ly because Martensville coaches know his team so well. ”They know how our pre-snap formations look and know what play we are going to run,” said Byers. “So we had to make a lot of in-game adjustments that we wouldn’t normally make because they were so well prepared for the game and they are so well coached.” Martensville coach Lyle Evanisky said the Royals con-tainment game is what cost them against the Rebels. ”We knew they were going to run the edge and we couldn’t stop them. There is not much you can do about that. You can do as best you can. That running back (Michnik) is a good athlete and I didn’t know their quarter-back (Shirley) was that good ei-ther so they surprised some of our ends.” Evanisky said offence is some-thing he is going to work on with his team before they take on Warman at home on Thursday, September 18. ”I think we’ve got a good sys-tem and we’ve got some guys in the right spots and I know we’ve got some talent there. But we have to do a better job of mov-ing the ball up the field and give them an opportunity to score for us,” said Evanisky. Byers said he was impressed by his team, which only has one senior on its roster. ”We are a real young team. We had one starting grade 12. That was it. We are mainly a team of Grade 10s and 11s so the kids don’t really know their play book. They don’t really know what they are doing but it is a real good opportunity to learn, make a few mistakes and run off penalties.” The Rebels hit the road for their next game, and will try to make it 2-0 when they take on Kindersley Friday, September 19.

The reigning provincial sil-ver medalists in 9-man football served notice they still have some unfinished business. With their eye on a gold med-al this year, the Clavet Cougars defeated the Tisdale Tornados 50-20 in Clavet on Thursday, September 11. Clavet coach Shaun Priel was pleased with his team’s perfor-mance. “They played very sol-id,” said Priel. “We’ve got a lot of kids who really stepped up and played to their potential. They played with a lot of confi-dence. You could see right from the opening kickoff the experi-ence they got last year in get-ting to the finals really carried over to the start of this year.” The game was never in doubt as the defence forced Tisdale to turn over the ball on downs the first drive of the game. The Cougar offence then went to work, moving the ball crisp-ly downfield before Bailey Roy-er scored on a 1-yard run. On their next possession a long pass from quarterback Gra-ham Beresh to receiver Aar-on Gosselin put the ball in the end zone. The Cougars scored their second TD when Beresh crossed the line on a short run. Royer and Beresh would each score rushing majors in the second quarter to give Clavet a

28-0 half-time lead. Tisdale got on the board ear-ly in the second half with a TD reception by Tanner Kirkland. But the Tornados blew their comeback hopes when a fum-ble recovery by Dallan Norrish set up the Cougars deep in Tis-dale’s end. Clavet’s Ian Shim-la scored on a 15 yard pass and run play. Zach Dickson followed

that up for the home team with a highlight reel touchdown catch. With many of the starters on the bench it was time for the younger players to shine. Ethan Parker ran for a 47 yard TD and followed that by run-ning the ball in for the convert. Tisdale was able to score two TDs in the fourth quarter to

The Dalmeny Cougars are hoping to bounce back from a “character-building” experi-ence on home turf last Thurs-day. The Cougars suffered a 80-6 spanking on September 11 from the visiting Rosetown Royals. “It’s football,” said Cougars co-coach Cory Lewis after the game. “These things happen. This is a learning experience and the boys will regroup and get set for the next contest.” Dalmeny’s defense, which was on the field for most of the game, held Rosetown to two touchdowns in the first quarter. But the constant pound-ing took its toll as the game went on and the Royals ran up the score. Dalmeny’s lone bright spot came late in the second quar-ter when quarter-back Peter Kuxhaus capitalized on some great blocking by his offensive line to scamper in for a touchdown.

The Cougars are scheduled to play a road game in Hafford against the Vikings on Friday, September 19. They host Biggar on Thursday, September 25 in Dalmeny.

HANLEY LOSS The Hanley Sabers lost to Gull Lake by a score of 66-30 on Thursday, September 11 in Gull Lake.

One of the beautiful things about football is, with only playing one game per week, the anticipation building up to each game can be spine-tin-gling. And then, once the bat-tle is over, we can spend the next several days breaking down what happened on the gridiron before turning our at-tention to the next challenge. In this case, the build-up to Tino Sunseri’s first pro start at quarterback for the Sas-katchewan Roughriders on Sunday in Hamilton was all of that. While some had writ-ten off the Riders’ chances due to the elbow injury to starter Darian Durant, just as many were content to wait and see what Sunseri would bring against the Ticats before rush-ing to judgment. Unfortunately, it was one of the worst offensive show-ings of the season as the Rid-ers were trounced 28-3 and saw their seven-game losing streak come to a halt. Sun-seri was sacked five times while only throwing for 88 yards and was intercepted once. Tino’s counterpart and long-time nemesis we’re told – Ticats quarterback Zach Collaros – had a sterling day throwing for 287 yards, two touchdowns, and was the team’s leading rusher. In the immediate aftermath of the loss, things were quiet. Still no one with the team was willing to write off the season after just one game, but ev-eryone stopped to take a good, long look in the mirror. While Sunseri wasn’t the second coming of Joe Montana, this loss was hardly hung on him. We mentioned the pass pro-tection issues, but the defense allowed the Ticats to roll up over 400 yards offense and the punt cover team allowed an-other return touchdown. All in all, as one CFL alum-

nus wrote me after the game, “it was a bad day at the of-fice.” Can this be forgiven? I think so. The Riders hadn’t lost in two months! That fact isn’t lost on Rider head coach Corey Chamblin. “When you’ve been winning so long, eventually you have to come down,” Chamblin told reporters after theame. “It’s part of football. There have been lots of games we won but we could have lost. This one, there was a chance when we were down by just 10 points (at the end of the half), but we lost. It’s not stunning. It’s a part of football.” With the loss the Riders dropped to 8-3 and into a sec-ond-place tie with Edmonton in the CFL West. Meanwhile, Hamilton moved into a three-way tie for first in the East at 3-7. Weird, but the Ticats fi-nally looked like the team that went to the Grey Cup last year. And so the Rider win-ning streak is over and now they hope to jumpstart anoth-er one when the Ottawa Red-Blacks come to town on Sun-day for a 2:00 p.m. kickoff. If this team’s going to challenge for first-place, a home playoff game, or heck, even a playoff spot, it appears it’s going to be up to Tino Sunseri to get them there for the foreseeable fu-ture. He’ll have to improve on what he showed at Tim Hortons Field. “It was the first game for Tino,” Chamblin shrugged. “There were some jitters. I

don’t think Darian was per-fect in his first game. That’s just the way it goes.” As a matter of fact Durant was 22/32 for 339 yards and two touchdowns in a 33-28 win at Hamilton in 2008 in his first pro start. But that’s ap-ples and oranges, really. In the final analysis, I think Sunseri will be just

fine but everyone around him will need to elevate their game from the flat showing in Steeltown. Sunseri will also have to ignite the spark that Durant usually does be-cause the Riders looked life-less in Week 12. It wasn’t the Roughrider team we’ve come to know. “I always put as much pres-sure on myself as I possibly can,” Sunseri said after Sun-day’s game. “I hold myself to a very, very, very high stan-dard. Obviously I expect to play lights-out and lead our team to victory and when that doesn’t happen, it’s not up to my standard.” This is far from over.

Damien Delnea of the Warman Wolverines breaks through a line of JP II defenders on his way to scoring one of five touchdowns on the game


Wolverines win season openerBy TERRY PUGH

[email protected]

The Warman Wolverines eased their way into the new season with a decisive 48-20 win over the visiting John Paul II Crusaders last Friday at Neufeld Field. Damien Delnea led the way for the home team, account-ing for five touchdowns. Tyler Hume added a pair of majors and Jayson Lindo also rushed for one. Lindo connected on several converts to round out the scoring. Delnea opened up the first-half onslaught with a 14-yard touchdown run on the Wolver-ines first drive of the game, and added another major on a 36-yard run during Warman’s sec-ond possession. The Grade 11 student made the switch to running back af-ter playing receiver last season. So far it’s paid off. “I like it better,” said Delnea after the game. “I try to follow the blocks for the first bit, and then after that it’s mostly re-flexes and looking for holes. I’m a lot better at running than I am at catching, so I’m glad the coach let me switch.” Wolverines quarterback Josh Misskey said the intensive practices leading up to the first game helped get everyone on the same page. “It was a good all-round game,” said Misskey. “We ran the ball well and we had some good blocks. Plus our defense was on their game as well. We just did what we’ve been do-ing in practice for the last three

weeks, and sticking to the game plan.” Wolverines coach Tyler Scheidt was happy with the effort his team put in on all fronts, but noted they will face much tougher challenges down the road. “Our kids have worked hard to get ready to play and they executed pretty well,” said Scheidt. “Our O-line gave lots of protection to our quarterback, and our running back played fantastic. Damien hit some holes and ran with speed. “But it’s tough to judge be-cause even though they looked good today, we were up against a very young, inexperienced team. I look forward to next week when we get tested a lot

more. We play Martensville, so that will be a real indicator.” Scheidt opted to give the Wol-verine second-stringers and younger players some valu-able on-field time starting about mid-way through the third quarter. He said JP II has a young team this year and it provid-ed a good opportunity to give game experience to everyone early in the season. “These young guys are going to be our starters next year,” he said. “They practice as much as the older guys and they learn a lot from game situations.” The Wolverines play the Martensville Royals on Thurs-day, September 18 in Martens-ville. Game time is 4 p.m.

Maddogs drop one to Vikings The Martensville Maddogs Bantam football team dropped a 30-12 decision to the North Battleford Junior Vikings on Sunday, Sep-tember 14 in North Battleford. The loss evens the Maddogs’ season record to 1-1. The team’s next two games are at home. They play the Prince Albert River Riders on Sunday, September 21 at 3 p.m.; and host the Tinkler Raiders on Sunday, September 28 at 3:30 p.m. The Maddogs Pee Wee team is still looking for its first win of the season. The team lost 48-6 to the Ledingham Steelers on Wednesday, September 10 in Saskatoon. They are scheduled to play the Knoll Panthers September 17 in Saskatoon. They have home games at Geransky Field on September 21 and September 28.

“That hat makes you look like an idiot!” The large man smiles at me and I look at him confused. It takes me a couple seconds to re-alize he’s quoting a line from a TV show called “Firefly.” “The Jayne hat, nice!” he adds, and gives me a thumbs up. I’d forgotten I’d put on that particular hat to-day to start my second day at the Calgary Com-ic and Entertain-ment Expo. For the uninitiated, a “Jaynes hat” is a knitted red, orange and yel-low toque from the TV show “Firefly” by Joss Wheadon (now of Avengers fame). I’m a fan of the show; what some would call a “Browncoat.” The name comes from the lead character in the series, part of a group fighting against the big, bad Alliance. He and all the other good guys wear brown duster coats; hence the nickname. It was the first, but certainly not last, time I would hear that comment over the span of the weekend.

COMICS SUBCULTURE I’m sitting in my dad’s office at the Gazette telling him about my experiences at the “cons.” Dad is an old-school newspaper-man, having been in the busi-ness since reporters still wore fedoras with “press” tags stick-ing out and and said things like “scoop!” and “stop the press-es!” Okay, maybe not that long, but he does date back to the era of typewriters and film camer-as. Dad looks a little perplexed, but smiles patiently and nods, even though he doesn’t seem to get it. He suggests I write an article explaining what these

events are all about . Okay. I’ll give it a shot. A lot of the appeal stems from a fascination with cos-tumes. Basically, dressing up as a pop culture character is fun. It starts in childhood, and what kid doesn’t love Hallowe’en? In Saskatchewan, of course, you have to make sure your cos-tume fits over your snowsuit when you go trick-or-treating at the end of October. Comic con weekends, on the other hand,

give grown-ups an excuse to wear awesome costumes in-doors all week-end and talk pop-culture triv-ia with like-minded people. The reward for the long hours of making the cos-tume is the com-pliments you get on how realis-tic and cool-look-ing your out-fit is. It’s also a nice feeling to impress the kids and pose for pic-tures with them

and their parents. Speaking of photo-ops, you can also get close to celebrities. I’ve always been a Star Wars fan, and getting cheek-to-cheek for a close-up shot with Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia) at one convention is a lasting high-light for me. Con friends are a different breed than ‘real life’ friends. It’s hard to explain to normal folks why you spend the entire weekend sewing, gluing and putting together a Mandalori-an costume or working on the wings that belong on your Thor helmet. You learn to just say “costume suff” and leave it at that. The inspiration for costumes often comes from a person’s fondness for childhood cartoon heroes. When I was little I nev-er missed a Saturday-morning episode of Teenage Mutant Nin-ja Turtles. It’s been 27 years since the show first aired, and 20 years since it was cancelled,

but it’s still being milked for all it’s worth. This past April at a convention in Calgary I got to make my 6-year-old former self jealous by meeting the actors behind the voices from the orig-inal cartoon show. When it comes to costumes, though, my favourite charac-ter is ‘Hellboy’. As part of my outfit, I made an articulated ‘Right Hand of Doom’; the fin-gers move and can spin at the wrist. Its first incarnation took me eight months to make and my second attempt took about four months. I have it sitting on my bookshelf signed by Hellboy himself, actor Ron Pearlman. It’s one of my most prized pos-sessions, partly bcause I made it myself and partly because it just looks cool.

THE GATHERINGS My first convention was in Seattle in 2011. ‘ZomBcon’ was like nothing I had ever expe-rienced in my life. A zombie- themed convention, it had big-name guests that ranged from director George Romero to cast members from all of Romero’s zombie movies, including Ju-dith O’Day from ‘Night of the Living Dead’ and Eugene Clark who played Big Daddy Zombie in ‘Land of the Dead’. You might wonder what peo-ple do at these conventions. Good question. Every day there are screenings of movies, ven-dors and booths galore, and of course the autographs and pan-els. I attended the Judith O’Day panel and heard her tell how the experience of making that zombie movie shaped her ca-reer. She was asked: “What were you thinking for motivation while you had to act almost comatose and paralyzed with fear during the zombie at-tack in Night?” Her answer has always stuck with me. She said when she was a little girl she saw the Vincent Price movie ‘House of Wax’ for the first time. She re-called the part where the fe-male lead began peeling away the wax coverings on Price to reveal the hideously scarred face underneath, and how frightened it made it feel. “That

was my inspiration because it one of the scariest things I’ve ever seen,” she said. I saw ‘House of Wax’ for the first time about a year ago, and yeah, it’s a scary scene, all right. It hits you right in the psyche. That’s what gives these movies such punch, and it’s also what makes them so popu-lar.

CON CONNECTIONS My first trip to the Calgary Expo (www.Calgaryexpo.com) was in April, 2012. I was blown away by the sheer enormity of the crowd and the diversity of costumes and fans. This particular year was the first time the main cast from Star Trek: The Next Generation had all been together since the show was cancelled. Seeing so many Star Fleet uniforms, Vul-cans and Klingons wandering the con floor was a surreal ex-perience, to say the least. Serious comic-con fans all wear costumes, but that some-times poses challenges. If the

outfit is big and bulky and the headgear restricts your visibil-ity, it’s not easy to see where you’re going. It helps to have a “handler” along; a friend who can guide you through the crowd. I’ve relied on my pal Josh a few times to perform that role, but he’s not the most reliable helper because he’s eas-ily distracted and often disap-pears into the crowd. Another friend of mine,

Big crowds expected as Saskatoon Comic and Entertainment Expo goes from margin to mainstream

Comic Con Culture

Duane, who goes by the cosplay name of ‘SaskaDoom’, has cre-ated a Thor costume that al-ways attracts a crowd. With his beard and long blonde hair, combined with the fact that he stands well over 6 feet tall, he’s the spitting image of the classic Marvel Comics hero. You never know what to ex-pect at a comic-con. During one Calgary expo I met two seri-ously-devoted comic-con fans

named Sabastian and Kristin. Sa-bastian proposed to Kristin in 2013 during the cos-tume contest in Calgary in front of a huge crowd. They were met with mighty ap-plause when she said “yes!” This coming weekend

at the Saskatoon Comic and En-tertainment Expo (SCEE) they plan to tie the knot: a fitting comic-book ending to an off-beat romance.

Kristin and Sabastian got engaged at a Comic Con in Calgary and are getting hitched at the upcoming Comic Expo in Saskatoon

Langham Elementary celebrates literacy with reading programWalls in three classrooms rebuilt after structural issues discovered



It was party time at Langham Elementary School on Thursday, September 11, as teachers, students and staff cel-ebrated two happy occasions: completion of major renova-tions and the launching of an innovative program encourag-ing youngsters to read. Over the summer, walls in three classrooms at the south end of the school were rebuilt. In addition, there were major upgrades to the entire build-ing including the installation of energy-efficient insulation and new windows. The work was begun in July and com-pleted literally a few hours be-fore school opened in early Sep-tember. The three classrooms that underwent renovations were closed off from the rest of the school this past spring af-ter cracks in the walls were dis-covered. The classes had to re-locate to temporary quarters in the library and staff room. “It’s exciting to have every-one back in their own class-rooms,” said Langham Elemen-tary School Principal Laura Prefontaine in an interview at the school. “It created some challenges last spring and we all had to make adjustments. But now that it’s all over, we’re really happy with the improve-ments.” Ken Crush, Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) trustee for the area, understands the is-sue very well. He was principal

Teachers at Langham Elementary School perform a song and dance routine as part of the kickoff to the school’s “One School, One Book” literacy program

of the school in the 1980s, and said the problem with the walls was an ongoing one. “It was a chronic issue. Ev-ery winter when the frost heaved that end of the school would move up and down about two to three inches,” said Crush in an interview. “And I guess last winter when it got re-ally cold, it heaved so much it compromised the structural in-tegirty of the walls.” The school division hired an outside engineering firm to de-termine whether it was safe to continue to hold classes in the affected part of the building. The engineers determined it was not. “They closed three class-rooms early last spring,” said Crush. “They monitored the sit-uation and tried to determine the full extent and the overall cause of the problem.” Crush said the current school sits on the same site as an older school that burned down in 1971. The portion of the current school that was af-fected was an addition that was added in the mid-1970s, and it is unclear whether proper pilings were put in under the cement slab. He said that may have contributed to the problem. It was clear to PSSD offi-cials that the problem had to be fixed, but it took several months before the Ministry of Education approved the neces-sary funding. Work didn’t start on the project until July, said Crush. “We only had two months to

get all the work done,” he said. “The construction company and the school division staff did a great job getting everything finished in that time.” Prefontaine introduced the contractors and PSSD staff who worked on the project in front of a school assembly. “I’m a firm believer in giv-ing credit where credit is due,” she said.” The students need to

know that it takes many people working very hard as a team to make these things happen, and we want to acknowledge their contributions.”

LOVE OF READING The assembly also marked the launch of a month-long reading program at the school known as “One School, One Book”. Originally begun in

the United States, the idea has spread across the continent, and several schools in PSSD are incorporating it into their academic programming. The school ran a similar program last year and felt it was very successful, said Prefontaine. The program involves an en-tire school population reading the same book, and is designed to encourage youngsters to also

involve their families and other community members. To generate interest and ex-citement among the students, teachers used a series of videos, songs and skits to convey how much fun it is to read. “If we can show we’re having fun and we’re engaged, then it becomes contagious,” said Pre-fontaine. “The kids pick up on that enthusiasm.”

The Ability In Me program (AIM) held its first barbecue social event and introduced the program’s new speech lan-guage therapist on Sunday, Sep-tember 14. The program, whose man-date is to provide speech lan-guage therapy assistance and family support for children with Down Syndrome, is ten-tatively scheduled to open its doors in October, said vice pres-ident and communications di-rector Christy Waldner. ”It is pretty exciting that we are finally getting to this point where we can see some results. It actually has been a longer process than I thought it was going to be,” said Waldner ”Right now we have 39 fam-ilies committed to support but we know there are families out there that we haven’t reached in the province. Now the word will start spreading.” Dianne Lieffers, the pro-gram’s first speech language therapist, has about 21 years of experience working with adults and in school divisions

in Warman and Rosetown. Lieffers said she saw the AIM program as an opportunity to work with children in a direct service model. ”Within the school division we try to do as much as much direct therapy as we can,” said Lieffers. “Given the affiliation with the program in Calgary, which is very much a direct service model, it was an oppor-tunity in the community to do that.” The PREP program, which has been operating in Calgary for 25 years, is the inspiration for Saskatoon’s AIM program. Lieffers will be leaving for Calgary on September 22 for training with PREP program professionals to gain insight on what methodology she can bring to AIM. ”I kind of see it in two differ-ent ways certainly understand-ing their treatment approach and treatment methodology,” said Lieffers. “They have an individual model as well as a group model based on age rang-es for the children so there is that varying, technological speech therapy aspect.”

‘Ability In Me’ program hires speech language therapist, plans to open in October By JAMES TARRANT

[email protected] One aspect that makes the PREP program unique is par-ent involvement. ”One of the components of PREP that had really contrib-uted to its success has been the parent involvement in the pro-gram; so parents attend with their children for the individu-al and group sessions. In terms of that carryover and generalization into home and school environments, par-ents are really empowered and involved on that process,” said Lieffers. Earlier this year an AIM fundraiser collected about $5,500 for its program but it is still waiting on government as-sistance. ”We’ve got enough raised through corporate and fundraising that we are able to operate for a year,” said Wald-ner. Government funding for AIM is still an ongoing process and a longer process than we thought it was going to be, said Waldner. ”It is going through different committees and people through the Ministry of Education and

Ministry of Social Services. It is not one particular depart-ment. It will go through the channels,” said Waldner. In the meantime, Lieffers will be calling and meeting with parents who will be bene-fitting from the AIM program soon. Waldner said Lieffers is a great first step for AIM. ”It was really the right fit for the program. She is really ex-cited, forward-thinking and un-derstanding in what the pro-gram is about and what we are expecting,” said Waldner. The AIM program will be hosting their 2nd Annu-al Workshop on November 5-6, 2014 for education and health care professionals working with children ages 0-21 with Down syndrome. Families are encouraged to attend. AIMs new office space will be located in Grosvenor Park United Church in Saskatoon.

AIM president Tammy Ives and new speech language therapist Dianne Lieffers are looking forward to welcoming

families to AIM’s new office location at Grosvenor Park United Church in Saskatoon

CAPRICORN December 22– January 19Family needs take precedence over your obligations at work, Capricorn. Higher-ups will just have to be patient if they want to keep you on as an employee. AQUARIUS January 20– February 18Aquarius, everyone expects you to provide advice, but this week you may be in need of guidance. It could be because you have been tackling so many projects lately.

PISCES February 19– March 20Few things escape your attention, Pisces. However, this week you can expect to be happily surprised by good news.

ARIES March 21– April 19Aries, you can have all of the inspiration in the world, but without some practical application, your idea will stall. Spend some time thinking things through.

TAURUS April 20– May 20You are torn between two choices, Taurus. Family mat-ters are on one side, and work responsibilities are on the other. It may take a few days to work out a decision.

GEMINI May 21– June 21Gemini, it’s difficult to contain all of your enthusiasm, so share your excitement and happiness with others. Try tackling some other people’s projects.

CANCER June 22– July 22Cancer, you will be front and center in the days to come. Don’t be nervous, as you’re fully capable of handling the extra attention. Enjoy the spotlight while it lasts.

LEO July 23– August 22Leo, you will be full of energy this week. Use this energy and enthusiasm to your advantage, tackling projects you have let go unfinished but want to get done.

VIRGO August 23– September 22Virgo, immerse yourself in activities that put you first over the next few days. Whether it’s a date or simply alone time, enjoy it and start tending to your needs.

LIBRA September 23– October 22Libra, getting back into the swing of things after a long va-cation can be hard, but you will have no problem getting back into a groove and getting all of your work done.

. SCORPIO October 23– November 21Try turning something you enjoy doing for fun into a career, Scorpio. Loving what you get paid to do is a key to a happy life, so figure out a way to make that happen.

SAGITTARIUS November 22– December 21Sagittarius, you may be adept at finding an easy way around a difficult thing, but sometimes taking the hard road offers good life lessons along the way.

When it comes to receiving true customer service and products that can stand the test of time, look no further than 4 Twenty Designs. Started in 2007 and managed by Carey Bursaw, the company provides clients with in-home consultations for blinds and drapery and also interior design consult-ing. “We are young and motivated,” explains owner Jean-nine Clark. “We strive to provide an ‘old school’ cus-tomer service feel. We feel we go above and beyond and provide service that surpasses other companies in our industry. Our warranty is above and beyond what is be-ing offered by others.” 4 Twenty Designs is based in Saskatoon but operates another home office in Warman to provide customers with even better service. “I have an education in Entrepreneurship and Hu-man Resources,” Clark adds. “My dad is a Realtor® so sales runs in my genes. My love for interior design and the desire to help people has made the design world an easy decision for me.” Clark believes the most rewarding aspect of being a business owner is the ability to create. “To create our own culture, our own idea of high cus-tomer service and to leave people with a smile. The ability that the more driven you are, the more you can achieve.”

4 Twenty Designs Led by pastors Clay Bitner and Murray McLellan, Grace Fellowship is a church that exists to bring glory to God through the lives transformed by the Gospel of Jesus Christ. “We believe that church is more than just a Sunday event, but an identity for those who have been saved by Je-sus and who want to share in the joy of new life with those around them,” Bitner explains. Grace Fellowship is officially launching in Warman on April 5, 2015 at the Legends Centre with regular services on Sunday mornings at 10:30. “Since the growth of Warman has not yet been matched by the growth of the church in Warman, we are excited to be able to proclaim Jesus in and around Warman,” Bitner adds. “including gathering together on Sunday mornings in the Legends Centre to worship Jesus through music, prayer and preaching the Bible.”

King’sAccounting

Taxes, payroll and bookkeeping are generally not at the top of many business owners “Like to do” lists. But, Kelly King of King Accounting Services can help. The company specializes in corporate tax and financial statements, personal taxes and bookkeeping, GST, payroll and PST filings. “I have my CGA designation, my Bachelor of Commerce degree in Accounting and 14 years of public accounting ex-perience,” King says. “Generally, people look for an ac-countant that they can build a permanent relationship with. My personality sets me apart from others as I try to be flexible, dedicated and positive in the work that I do.” King, who started the firm in March of this year, at-tempted to relocate her children to live with her in Mar-tensville but circumstances dictated otherwise. “I decided to start my own accounting firm so that I could have more flexibility to raise my children where they reside. I now have two homes and live half-time at each location. Being a business owner gives me the flexibil-ity to schedule life in as it happens.”

King Accounting Services provides flexibility

Making money work harder and providing a bright fi-nancial future is the goal of general manager Som Houm-phanh and his professional advisors at Sentinel Financial Group. “We are a locally owned and operated company in Sas-katchewan and have a portfolio of unsurpassed products available in the life insurance and financial services field,” he says of the company that was founded 33 years ago.

Full slate of programs, activities in store at Venture Heights SchoolAcademics,

sports, arts all part of school’s programming



Venture Heights School in Mar-tensville is gearing up for its third full-scale musical stage production in three years. And while the choice of script is still up in the air at this point, it won’t be long until young thespians and musi-cians are lining up to audition for the major roles. It’s all part of what promises to be a “very exciting” academic year at the elementary school in Martensville, says school principal Ron Biberdorf. “We have so many programs, it’s hard to name them all,” said Biberdorf in an interview in the school library on Friday, September 12. “We have a full complement of athletics happen-ing now, with cheerleading getting un-derway and four volleyball teams cur-rently practising for league play. We have a cross country team that’s go-ing to a couple of meets in the next few weeks, and there are about two dozen kids in our junior golf program that are participating in a competition in Delisle this week.” Biberdorf said the school is embark-ing on its second year with the “One School, One Book” reading initiative, which encourages the entire school, along with parents and community members, to all read the same book over a six week period. The Venture Heights School Com-munity Council provided seed mon-ey for the books, and that money was supplemented later by fundrais-ers through the year. The school pur-chased 400 copies of the popular chil-dren’s classic, ‘Because of Winn-Dixie’, and one copy of the book is being dis-tributed to the youngest child in each family. “Every family gets a copy of the book and a schedule for reading at home,” said Biberdorf. “There’s also a website and a blog with trivia ques-tions and comments on each chapter. This program will culminate in time for our student conferences and par-ent-teacher interviews in October.” Last year, the school purchased cop-ies of ‘Charlotte’s Web’ for use in the One School, One Book program. The success of the initiative is something the school wants to share with others in the division. “We’re looking for dance part-ners,” said Biberdorf. “We’re look-ing for some schools that want to do the same thing. We have all these cop-ies of Charlotte’s Web, and we would like a school to take that on. We can pass these books on to that school, and maybe next year they can buy books for us. We would love to rotate those

books around if we can find other schools that want to participate with us.”

STEADY ENROLMENT Biberdorf said the enrolment at Ven-ture Heights School is relatively sta-ble. “We’re in the section of Martens-ville that has not as much new hous-ing,” said Biberdorf. “Most of the growth in new housing is on the south side of the city. But as the east starts to expand with the new Lake Vista neighbourhood, we’re going to start seeing some kids fom that area attend

our school.” Eventually, there will be new schools built in that area, but they won’t be ready until 2017. “There could be a bit of a crunch in the short term,” said Biberdorf. “If that happens, the school division will likely assign Grades 7 and 8 students from the two elementary schools and put them in the high school, which should be fin-ished construction by then. That’s the short-term contingency plan.” The school welcomed parents and students with a pancake breakfast on September 12, thanks to some help from the Martensville Fire Depart-

ment. “The event helps build connections with the community,” said Biberdorf. “All the staff wear easily-identifiable t-shirts so the parents can see at a glance who the staff are. It’s very help-ful and we received a lot of positive

feedback. We want families, when they come to Venture Heights, to feel they are part of what we are doing here. We want people to offer suggestions, and contribute their skills and talents to make our school a great place for ev-eryone.”

Martensville’s boom triggers more growth at Valley Manor School

Student enrolment has more than doubled in past six years



Enrolment at Valley Manor School in Martensville has topped 700 stu-dents for the first time in its history. “Last year we finished the year at about 645 students, and this year we’re at 715 students so far, so it’s way up,” said Valley Manor School Vice-Prin-cipal Michael Cox in an interview on Friday, September 12. “Most of the in-crease is in the lower grades. We sent 50 grade 8 graduates to the high school last year, and this year we’re wel-coming 106 kindergarten students. So there’s a shift of about 50 kids right there.” Cox said a significant number of new families have moved in to Mar-tensville over the summer, and that increase in student numbers has been spread fairly evenly among all the grades. He noted that most of the in-crease in new families is because of the fast growth in residential homes being built in the city’s south end. “From what we’re seeing, there are more houses to come, so that will mean even more kids next year, espe-cially in the lower grades,” said Cox. “It means challenges, but it’s a good problem to have. It’s much better than being faced with declining enrolment and a shrinking population.” Cox said while the new Lake Vis-ta neighbourhood will begin to devel-op in earnest this fall and over the winter, students in that area are more likely to go to Venture Heights. “Main Street is the dividing line,” said Cox. “That’s the boundary be-tween our area and Venture Heights. We’ve fielded some calls from families whose houses in Lake Vista will be ready by November. Technically they should be going to Venture Heights, at least until the new schools get built in that neighbourhood in a few years.” Cox said the “enrolment bubble”

will see more kids in the younger grades in coming years. “We now have four classes of each grade up to Grade 4,” said Cox. “We have three classes each of Grades 5 to 8. This is the first year we’ve had three Grade 8 classes. In the past it’s always been two.” To handle the growth, construc-tion is currently underway on four new classrooms at the south end of the school. “This will be our Grade 2 wing,” said Cox. “We have one Grade 2 class in the library right now to start the year. There’s another Grade 2 class in our staff room, and another Grade 2 class in our computer lab. So we’re a little tight on space right now, but we’re making it work.” The addition of these four units will bring the total number of classrooms in the school to 32. “Most of the classrooms in this school are technically relocatables,” said Cox. “Of the 32 classrooms, 22 were built on to the original school.” The addition of relocatables began in earnest in the late 1980s, with one or two every few years. But Cox said over the past six years, the school has seen multiple classrooms built annual-ly. “This year we’re adding four class-rooms. Last year we added five. The year before that was a group of three classrooms,” he said. “This school was originally designed and built to han-dle 350 students. Now we’re over 700. That’s double the original capacity, and we’re still growing.”

HEALTHY THEME Cox said the school has adopted a theme this year focusing on health. “It’s made up of four quadrants,” said Cox. “Healthy bodies, healthy minds, healthy school, and a healthy community. Each month we’re doing a variety of activities that tie in to that

theme, whether its physical exercise, or a school wide cleanup, or healthy relatinships.” Cox said the school will undertake a number of fundraising activities to enable kids to feel engaged with good causes at home and around the world. “This year we’re donating to the Terry Fox Foundation by fundraising through our Terry Fox Run at the end of the month,” he said. On September 18, the school is host-ing its annual barbecue for parents and students. It provides a friendly en-vironment where families can get to know the teachers and the school, said Cox. The school has a full slate of sports activities lined up for the year, includ-ing volleyball, said Cox. “We also have close to 70 to 80 runners in Grades 4 to 8 participating in cross country meets this year,” he said. “Our kids like to be active and we encourage that.” Cox noted Valley Manor School has an active School Safety Patrol pro-gram that helps keeps students safe, especially during noon hour break

and after school. “At the end of the school day, it can be quite a zoo in front of our school,” said Cox. “There’s a lot of traffic, and a lot of kids and buses. The student vol-

unteers with the safety patrol really do play a big role in keeping the kids safe. They have a big responsibility be-cause they’re out there every day, ex-cept when it hits minus 30 and colder.”
