By Kelly Running Cornerstone Family and Youth (CFY) hosted a Circus Day Camp on Thursday, Feb. 19, with FunTAZM En-tertainment. A professional clown, Dawn Suchoboki, travelled to Carlyle from Re-gina to take the kids through a clowning workshop and balloon twisting class. The fi rst portion of her time with the kids was directed towards getting kids moving around, fi nding their voices, and developing a clown persona. The kids got to learn how to be a clown, while also enjoy-ing being able to show-case their newly found talents to the parents and grandparents who had decided to stay for the event. “It was the fi rst time we didn’t allow cell phones in the room and it was great,” Jenn Sedor, Program Coordi-nator, explained. “There were no distractions and everyone was clowning around.” The kids thoroughly enjoyed their time creating their charac-ters and being goofy, but were equally as thrilled with learning the art of balloon twisting. “The fi rst part of that we just had to blow up balloons and pop them,” Sedor laughed as she continued, “The fi rst few kids screamed, but eventually they got used to it, so later when they were twist-ing their balloons no one would be scared by the noise.” “The made mice, fl owers, swords, and elephants, it was great.” The 23 kids who participated worked on their own if they were able to, while younger kids attending had help from their parents.

“It was a really, really great day,” Sedor stated. “Unfortunately we didn’t have enough room for everyone as people were signing in at the door and couldn’t. We overbooked with 23, but hopefully we’ll be able to do this again because everyone had such a good time.” “Dawn will also be coming back as a clown for our Carnival on June 19 for Kids Night on the Friday of Boogie Fest.” This was actually how CFY came across the Circus Day Camp according

to Sedor, “We were looking for entertainers for our car-nival and noticed that there was a teaching component. We actually had money available through Southeast Connection for an instruc-tor of physical activity, but the dance instructor we at-tempted to get was unavail-able. So, we thought about it and decided that Carlyle had never had something like this come to visit.” “There was no sitting or watching, it was all do-ing. It was defi nitely good exercise for the kids.”

One of the grandparents attending, Janice Bee, was extremely pleased with the day and with what CFY is doing in the community for kids. “I liked best that the girls were enjoying themselves so much and just laughing,” Bee stated. “Dawn had a way in that class to get everyone involved, even the shy kids. She was teaching without anyone realizing they were being taught.” “Also, CFY, I’ve never actually gone to one of their events before. I knew of them because of my granddaughters, but I was totally impressed by what they’re doing.”

By Kelly Running The Kisbey Fire Department was looking to fundraise for a side-by-side unit to use while fi ghting grassfi res, but now, thanks to Enbridge’s Safe Commu-nity Program they will reach their goal of purchasing the unit years before they had expected to. Jeff Yanko with Enbridge made the journey out to Kisbey on Wednesday, Feb. 18, where he met Fire Chief Rob Cobb and volunteer fi re fi ghter John Vouture to present them with a cheque for $10,000. “Emergency response is important in this communi-ty, in the R.M. of Brock, and in the other R.M.’s as well, so it’s important for us to donate to local departments,” Yanko said. This is the second time Vouture says Enbridge has stepped up for the Kisbey Volunteer Fire Department, “A couple of years ago they chipped in for our fi re truck and last fall I applied again. We were looking at getting a side-by-side to fi ght grass fi res in the R.M. with a spraying unit hook up and instead of our guys travelling back to the truck which can be fi ve kilometres away, they can just fi ll up at the side-by-side.” “This is twice now that Enbridge has stepped up, nobody else has stepped up like Enbridge has to help our community,” Vouture added. Cobb agreed, “That $10,000 is $10,000 we don’t have to try and raise ourselves. It makes a big difference for us and is a really big deal for our fi re department. I know without this we wouldn’t have gotten the side-by-side this year.” “The purchase was planned down the road, in a couple years, but with this we’ll have it this summer.” In order to raise funds for the side-by-side the Kis-bey Fire Department was planning a steak dinner. The dinner, with all the fi xings, will still be held, but now it will be a fundraiser for equipment for the side-by-side. “We have a very small fi re department, so this is a very big deal for us,” Cobb exclaimed.

By Kelly Running It’s that time of year again, the Carlyle and District Lions Club will be hosting their annual dinner, raffl e, and auction on Thursday, March 5, at the Carlyle Me-morial Hall. The Lions Club focuses on local needs, while also supporting Lions’ initiatives like the Lions Club International Foundation. This particular fundraiser is directed towards raising funds specifi cally for local projects. Over the years the Lions have given to the Crescent Point Leisure Complex, Lions Park, Carlyle Sports Arena, the Curling Rink, Memorial Hall, Carlyle Golf and Country Club, various minor sports, the Fire Department, the Rusty Relics Museum, Library, Manor Rink, and so many more. “All funds from the supper go back to groups in our community,” Wayne Wilson, Lions Chairperson and MC for the evening, explained. “We have an application for groups to fi ll out and we decide from there which groups we can give to. Which if anyone is interested in an application they can get one from me.” “Last year we donated to a total of 19 groups, just over $43,000. Our last eight to nine years have been phenomenal, but last year was our best year.” Additionally one of the groups that was given money last year was no longer in need of it, so $2,000 was given to the newly formed Friends of Moose Moun-tain Lodge. The Carlyle and District Lions have become an essential part of the community and surrounding area. They’re driven to ensure the success of the community and work together to help better Carlyle and district. Catering the event again will be Eileen Corrigan and Linda Chapman who always make a delicious meal. Ward Cutler will also be back to run the live auc-tion. Auction items this year include a Jonathan Toews autographed Olympic jersey donated by Carlyle Motor Products and a fi ve-piece dining room set by A-1 Tank Cleaners. “There are all kinds of things which will be on the raffl e table and we are still getting lots of things for the live auction as well,” Wilson stated. Tickets for this year’s event are still available. Con-tact Wayne Wilson if interested at home (306)453-2800 or on his cell at (306)577-8540. The doors will open at 5 p.m. to view auction items with happy hour beginning at 6 p.m. and the banquet will start at 7 p.m., which will be followed by the auction and then the raffl es. “We’re hoping to fi ll the hall, which means we have a total of 220 tickets available,” Wilson said. “Many are sold, but we do still have tickets left.” A great night to enjoy with friends and give back to the community through supporting the Lions, their 23rd annual dinner and auction is gearing up to be another wonderful evening.

Auctioneer Ward Cutler will be returning this year for the annual Lions Dinner, Raffl e, and Auction in Carlyle at Memorial Hall on Thursday, March 5. Last year was the Lions most successful fundraiser, which raised $43,000, all of which was given back locally. Tickets are still available for this year’s auc-tion, so contact a Carlyle and District Lions member for more information.

In the last few months two of my favourite long-running TV shows reached their conclusion with a highly touted series fi nale.

Expectations mounted as we speculated how the series’ might end and storylines be wrapped up. For me, one of the shows had an outstanding fi nale while the other left me feeling cheated. Series fi nales generally capture high ratings, but since these shows have enjoyed relatively long runs and large audiences, the writers face a challenge in trying to create a satisfying fi nale for viewers. More than thirty years after it aired, the most watched series fi nale in television history is still the fi nal episode of M*A*S*H when 105.9 million viewers tuned in for the 1983 history-making “Goodbye, Farewell and Amen.” Ten years later 64% of people who had their TVs on one night in May were tuning in to say goodbye to the comedy show Cheers. Other fi nales brought in big ratings numbers too like The Fugitive, Seinfeld, Friends and Magnum P.I. But with increasingly fragmented audiences and with more of us watching on devices other than TVs it is unlikely any show will see these kinds of ratings again. So although TV producers aren’t antici-pating any record-breaking numbers, nonetheless a series fi nale is still something of an event for network and cable shows alike. A fi nale has a date and time attached to it. If it is a show you are interested in you may make special plans for it. You clear your calendar, invite friends, or perhaps even put thought into a snack menu as you prepare for the episode to air; unaware yet if you will feel satisfi ed or disappointed with the way it concludes. The other fi nales in our lives don’t follow this type of script or schedule. Instead we fi nd ourselves in the midst of them per-haps leaving us feeling bittersweet, overwhelmed, or maybe even cheated. How did we get here? When did this happen? How could I have not noticed what was coming? As I stood in my kitchen several years ago my youngest daughter came in to give me a kiss and say goodnight. When had I stopped tucking her in? When was the last time I read a bedtime story to her? When had these things ceased? When did she last need helping brushing her teeth? Tying her shoes? As she headed off to bed I thought about the ways in which she was growing and grain-ing independence and understood that while these fi nales had come to pass, several new beginnings were emerging. Our daughters were now telling us about the books they were reading on their own, showing off the hairstyles they had created, and asking us what we thought of the outfi ts they had put together. Other fi nales don’t evoke the same sort of nostalgic thought. It can be painful as someone tries to recall the fi nal time behind the wheel before relinquishing a driver’s licence, the last kiss before a spouse became ill, or the last time an elderly parent was taken to a special restaurant before that was no longer a possibility. We don’t know that what we are experiencing is the last time we will experi-ence it—and perhaps that is where the blessing is. As I watched a series fi nale a few weeks ago I realized about halfway through that while I was entertained by the show, I was continuously glancing at the clock to see how many minutes were left. Instead of just watching the fi nal scenes, I was getting hung-up on the fact that time was ticking away on the experience. My aware-ness that it was coming to an end was overshadowing the apprecia-tion of the moment. I’m glad I didn’t have an eye on the clock while reading my children bedtime stories, or as I was sitting listening to my par-ents and grandparents, or spending an evening with my husband. Although we don’t know whether something will be a gradual or an abrupt change, we know that change will come and fi nales of all kinds will occur. So whether they make the highlight reel of our life or are simply one of the stories of note only to ourselves, the experi-ence has to be lived before it can be remembered. We need to immerse ourselves in the experience of the moment rather than treating that moment as a piece of history before it has even had a chance to pass. That’s my outlook.

When I got my licence my parents told me something

along the lines of, “Pay attention, be a good driver and watch out for everyone else because they might not be watching for you.” I try to be as attentive as possible when driving, and have been involved in a very minor at fault accident, but that just leads me to wonder about what other people are thinking behind the wheel. An incident that I’ve vowed to never let happen again. So, although I’m not one to complain nor am I one to anger easily, these are three of my pet peeves while driving, which ac-tually spur a bit of road rage in me. When you’re driving along the highway and see someone stopped at a stop sign who then pulls out in front of you without enough time. This annoys me ever more when I check my rear view mirror to confi rm, ‘Yup, there’s no one back there.’ Had they waited the few sec-onds it would take for me to pass them the entire worrisome situ-ation would have been avoided. Though some think they’re being kind when they pull out, keeping to the shoulder of the road you’re now forced to choose to pass the vehicle while another one is ap-proaching and be sandwiched be-

tween two other vehicles, or slow to speeds less than the speed limit and wait for the proper time to pass. Another one that gets me is speeding. I travel the speed of the majority on the road and when someone comes fl ying by me, I’m astounded at how fast they’re likely going, which gauging the seconds it took to pass me and cross referencing that with my own speed is likely 140 km/hr. Then because they get caught behind a convoy of traffi c just ahead we end up in the same place at pretty much the exact same time, because the only time going that fast actually makes a difference is if you’re actually travelling for an hour or more. The 10 minutes it takes from Car-lyle to Arcola though a difference of 20 km/hr is negligible. Another road rage moment for me comes with people who don’t stop behind stop signs. There’s almost nothing worse than watching someone come fl ying in from a grid road as you’re on the highway and think-ing, ‘They’re not going to stop.’ So you start slowing down, won-dering if they’re going to stop or not. Usually they do, but it’s just as the front end of their vehicle is nearly at the highway and some-times you even watch as the tires

skid. Not only does this bother me when travelling at high speeds on highways, but I’m livid when I see it happen in town as well. Driving along Main St. for ex-ample you’ll meet someone try-ing to turn onto the road. They stop after the stop sign paying no attention to that area which is where the crosswalk is making me always think, ‘Yup, you’re going to hit someone one day.’ Because not only do they stop after the sign, but usually these people are so focused on oncom-ing traffi c that they never look right, they’re intently watching to the left checking for vehicles and have paid no attention to the possible pedestrians wanting to cross the street. You stop fi rst BEHIND the stop sign then check left, for-ward, right, forward, left, EVEN if you’re only concerned about traffi c from one direction. You then creep ahead if you can’t see properly from where you’re situated to gauge if it’s safe or not. You don’t blow by that area, looking just to the left because you’re only concerned about what’s coming from that direc-tion, while barely stopping be-fore the front end of your vehicle is in the street perpendicular to yours.

Parenting Tips from Regional KidsFirst– Clapping, clapping, giggling

When your baby hits that 6 month age, they are reaching new milestones. By this time, your baby will have discovered that he has hands and feet. At the 6 month mark, your baby will be learning that his hands and feet can move when he wants them to. Because your baby is learning how to clap his hands, help him out with some nursery rhymes or songs that involve clapping. At fi rst, you will have to show your baby how to clap his hands, but eventually he will start clapping on his own. He may not clap any in particular rhythm,

By Linda Wegner Two years ago I published a book detailing some of the challenges I faced in my journey from pastor’s wife to business owner. Never meant to be a heart-rendering chronicle of the emotional ups and downs I faced, I wrote it as a step-by-step outline of how God enabled me to move into a new and exciting phase of my life. Now I’ve decided to share three critical principles I followed in setting up my home-based business, mainly because I’ve found these things to be just as vital in my everyday life. I call them my 3Ds. The fi rst step in the journey required an understanding of what I wanted to do or more accurately, of what I was capable of doing. As much as I love music and playing the piano, there’s no way my elementary skills would’ve enabled me to work as a musician. Cross that one off the list. In a moment of panic I thought of applying for an entry level position at a large retail chain

but I quickly realized my then recent battle with cancer left me physically unprepared for the work. Another X. What could I do? Then the light came on: although still relatively new to the fi eld, I’d been published in nearly two dozen local newspapers and national religious magazines. “That’s what I’ll do,” I exclaimed excitedly to myself and my husband. “I’ll establish a business as a writer!” The fi rst principle: Discover your passion. It was far from easy. People prophesied that I’d never be able to do it and I couldn’t have done it without supportive friends. But, nearly fi fteen years later, I still run my company. Life Lesson: devotion to sound business principles can bring much earthly success; passionate commitment to Jesus Christ brings heavenly dividends, now and through eternity. What’s your passion?

The storm raged; the ship was sinking fast. The Captain called out, “Anyone here know how to pray?” One man stepped forward. “Aye, Captain.” “Good,” said the captain, “you pray while the rest of us put on our life jackets. We’re one short.” “Jesus got up before dawn and went away to a deserted place and prayed” (Mark 1:35). Curious that Jesus so frequently went aside to a quiet place and prayed. As God, you would think that he would just know the Father’s will. But Jesus was human, too. And like we, he struggled with temptation. In Gethsemane he really needed to talk to the Father. Jesus’ closest friends, like Teresa of Lesieux, spent a great deal of time talking with him. Maybe it is time to rethink our need for prayer. It is a little arrogant of us to think we do not need daily prayer. Even Hamlet said: For every man hath business and desire, Such as it is, and, for my own part,Look you, I’ll go pray” (IV, v, 130-133). Father Brendan McGuire used this analogy: “Just because I have a desire to lose 20 pounds, I am not going to lose 20 pounds. In fact, we have plenty of evidence in the world of people who have said that…but never actually did it. “Once you decide, desire converts to a decision. ‘I am going to lose 20 pounds!’ That decision then necessitates a methodology to get there, a process, then a discipline to apply it. What does that look like? It might be ‘I am going to eat less. I am going to exercise more.’ “That may be your methodology, and then you apply it day after day for about 30 days. We now have the habit of eating less and exercising more, which will mean we will eventually get to our goal… and then we have a virtuous habit. We will continue to eat less and exercise more because it has become a habit. The same is true for prayer.” Prayer requires the same discipline. McGuire says, “Some of you have told me, ‘We have grown up just going to Mass on Sunday. That was good enough for me then and it is good enough for me now.’ Let me say it again; it wasn’t good then, and it is not good now! Whatever you were told back then was wrong then and it is wrong now! We all need to pray every day. If Jesus prayed every day, then we ought to do it.” Ash Wednesday has Lent us another opportunity. We can decide to pray more this Lent. Before the discipline comes a process or methodology. Before that process comes a decision. Before that decision comes a desire. We can never do any of that if we do not even have the desire. This Lent fi nd a deserted place. Listen in the silence. Building a habit of prayer will pay dividends for the rest of your life. The practise of regular prayer and meditation has added peace to my life. Transcendental Meditation, often engaged in after exercise, brings refreshing rest to restore muscles and mind. McGuire says, “The development of a prayer habit in our lives, I promise you, will pay dividends for the rest of our lives. If we can develop and really work at this habit of prayer, then later in life it will become a security for us that will radically change our lives.”

but that will come with time. For now, clapping is a huge thing! Snuggling with your baby while helping him learn to clap will let him know that clapping is safe and fun. Generally, one song to keep a clapping beat to is “Pat-a-Cake”. It provides a slow and steady beat that will help your child learn to clap his hands together in a controlled manner. Some other great clapping songs or rhymes include: “BINGO”, “If You’re Happy and You know it”, “Peas Porridge Hot”, or “Two Little Hands Go Clap, Clap, Clap”.

By Lynne Bell In his fi rst international competition, Team Canada captain Kruise Reddick led the national men’s hockey team to a bronze medal, as Canada defeated the Czech Republic 6-2, Saturday, Feb. 14 at the 2015 Winter Universiade (University Games) in Granada, Spain. This year, Reddick was one of 1,200 elite university athletes from around the world competing in the biennial event, and says stepping up to the podium is “amazing.” “Making it to the podium felt pretty amazing. It’s a huge honour to represent your country internationally,” he says. “We would have liked to bring home the gold, but it’s such a huge honour to represent your country and to bring home a medal for Canada is pretty amazing.” “Obviously, we had an expectation of winning gold, and we knew we could medal. To get the gold, we knew we had to get past Russia,” says Reddick. “They were the toughest team we played and the semi-fi nal (game) against them was the real gold medal round.” Reddick says that regardless of the disappointing 3-2 loss in the semi-fi nals to the Russian Federation’s team (where the Russians scored twice in a shootout to defeat the Canadians), playing against Canada’s on-ice rivals was another personal hockey highlight for him. “It’s pretty amazing to wear the Canadian jersey and come up against Russia,” he says. “I was really looking forward to playing the Russians. That whole Canada-Russia rivalry is something special, and it was surreal lining up against Russia. Nothing can take that experience away.” Not only did Reddick don Canada’s colours as part of an international hockey squad; he was also

named Team Canada’s captain for men’s hockey. “Just to be named captain was pretty amazing,” he says. “It left me speechless. Just playing on Team Canada and wearing the maple leaf on the ice is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Being captain wasn’t something I expected at all, but I’m truly honoured and it’s something that I’ll look back on for the rest of my life and be extremely proud of.” Reddick is quick to dismiss his own impressive achievements on the ice during the competition-including a hat trick in a 7-0 win against Team USA, which catapulted Canada into the semi-fi nals-choosing instead to focus on the team. “The excitement, the momentum, and the coming together as a team builds,” he says. “We met in Calgary before we fl ew out and we played one game against each other the night before. We got our team jerseys there and a team picture.” “Just getting our Team Canada jerseys was a great moment,” he adds. “From there, we really grew as a team, and with every game we played, we grew closer as the tournament progressed.” Reddick says Team Canada was prepared for the Games’ six-game schedule, but took nothing for granted. “The CIS (Canadian Interuniversity Sport) schedule is 28 games,” says Reddick. “That prepares you pretty well for it.” However, during Canada’s fi rst game-a match against South Korea-which ended in an 11-1 win for the Canadian squad, Reddick says, “By the end of the fi rst period, we were tied 1-1. We had to pull it together pretty quick, and we did. You learn something from every game and every team you play and you don’t take anything for granted.”

Although the Canadian team’s focus was on playing to win, Reddick says they did have a chance to see the sights of Granada, and found an unexpected new fan base. “I didn’t realize what a big event this was until I got here,” says Reddick. “The fan support was phenomenal, and as Canadians, the people in Granada were great. They really got behind our team. They really seemed to take a liking to the Canadians.” “Hockey was our committment,” continues Reddick. “We had breakfast each morning and practices and meetings. But we did get the opportunity to see some pretty amazing things.” “Granada is a gorgeous city. One of the highlights for me was seeing the Alhambra Palace, which was fi rst built in 889, and later rebuilt in the 11th century. It’s huge and the palace is gorgeous.” Team Canada played all six games in the city’s Granada Sport Palace in front of 4,400 fans, and by doing so, helped make Spanish hockey history. “In Granada, we actually played on a basketball arena which was turned into an ice rink,” says Reddick. “The ice-makers and Zambonis all came from Italy, so it was the fi rst time there had ever been ice made there.” Reddick is looking ahead to his next competition, when his home team, the University of Alberta Golden Bears head to Halifax March 12-15 to compete in the CIS University Cup. “The nationals are next,” he says. “Then I’ll work a few weeks up here (in Edmonton). After that, I’m going to enjoy some time at home, enjoying the summer and seeing my family and friends.” “I’m looking forward to it.”

They really seemed to take a liking to the Canadians.” A native of Manor, the 24-year-old forward is also team captain for the University of Alberta Golden Bears in Edmonton, where he attends university.

By Kelly Running Hockey, the great Ca-nadian pastime, was en-joyed on Wednesday, Feb. 18, in Carlyle where nov-ice to peewee players were welcomed to participate in a shooting and scoring clinic. The clinic was held at the Carlyle arena a total of 25 players, fi ve of which were goalies, attended the clinic hosted by Jeff Cole with Sask Hockey Acad-emy out of Moosomin. Set up with three sep-arate sessions including a classroom portion and two on-ice sessions youth were given the opportunity to learn. The clinic covered goal scoring tactics and

secrets, puck position-ing, wrist movement, arm movement, weight trans-fer, follow through, shoot-ing, deking, quick release, freezing goalies, shooting in stride, shooting while moving laterally, getting into a good position, tough angle shots, and accuracy training. The fi rst portion of the clinic included an off-ice tutorial which required youth to bring their stick and gloves. They then spent time on the ice work-ing on their wrist shots, deking 1-on-1 and back hands. A short break was taken while the ice was fl ooded and the kids again hit the ice to work on vari-

Hockey clinic well attendedous skills. Youth attended from across the southeast in or-der to take in the clinic. The clinic was focused on three main points: quick-ness, accuracy, and speed. Any shot on net should be capitalized on which is why it was important to the instructors to ensure an un-derstanding of the different principles of each shot. Additionally fun was had throughout the day with players’ shots clocked on a speed radar to see how fast they could get the puck moving. Overall it was a fun day for many as they learned a lot and enjoyed being on the ice. A youth dekes towards the net and fi res a wrist shot at a goalie during a shoot-

ing and scoring clinic held in Carlyle on Wednesday, Feb. 18.

A group of 20 young skaters and fi ve goalies participated in the hockey clinic in Carlyle.

Submitted by the South-east Vipers Volleyball Club The Southeast Vi-pers 18U were in Regina on Saturday, Feb. 21, and Sunday, Feb. 22. With a few injuries on the team only 10 were able to attend the competition of the 12 on the team. There were a total of 12 teams at the QCVC tournament. The draw had four different pools of three teams each, so the Vipers competed in a round robin with in Pool B. Their fi rst match of the tournament was against the Saskatoon based JCVC Element 17U team. It was a tough battle, but the city team was able to take the

win. The next game saw the Vipers take on the QCVC 18U Royal. This match was hard fought and the girls dug deep to clinch victory giving them a second place fi nish in their pool, which meant they would face the Prairie Selects 18U Lazers who had taken fi rst in Pool A. This game was also well fought, but the Prairie Se-lects were able to get the edge on the Vipers in this match. The next day the Vi-pers took on the Anaheim Volleyball Club (AVC) but the Vipers were unable to maintain their lead in the fi rst set. AVC fought back digging up tough shots and placing the ball well

against the Vipers. This resulted in a loss sending them into a match against Rouleau. Competing for sev-enth place against Rouleau came with a loss in three sets. The Vipers were vic-torious in the fi rst match, but were unable to come back in the second after Rouleau got up on them. The match went to three and was toughly fought, point for point, by both sides. With a matter of a few points difference, Rou-leau was able to inch for-ward to 15 points fi rst. This left the Vipers in 8th place.

Rick Nash is impressing his New York Rangers’ team-mates with his best NHL season ever and it’s likely his performance will have a similar effect on voters for the league’s Most Valuable Player award. Nash, a two-time 40-goal scorer who was the No. 1 draft choice of Columbus Blue Jackets in 2002, is fi nally showing his super-duper-star skills that scouts had seen when he was Canada’s top junior. Through 54 games this season, the 30-year-old Nash was virtually carrying the Rangers on his back, with a league-leading 35 goals and on pace to score a career-best 53. Only fi ve other Rangers had more than 10 goals, and No. 2 on the team behind Nash was Martin St. Louis, with 14. “He’s a star player,” line-mate Mats Zuccarello told the New York Times. “That’s what you expect. I don’t know how long he’s been in the league, but you’ve seen that every year. It’s not like it’s a surprise.” Some hockey fans felt sorry for Nash when he was stuck in Columbus for the fi rst nine years of his career. The Jackets

were perennial doormats in the NHL and the words ‘playoffs’ and ‘Nash’ were seldom combined, unless the word ‘missed’ was also in the mix. Suddenly, however, he was thrust into the playoff spotlight when he was traded to the Rangers during the summer of 2012, just before the NHL lockout. Unfortunately, he has been a playoff bust since then, with only four goals in 37 games over two playoff seasons. Nash had a mere three goals in 25 post-season games last year as the Rangers went all the way to the Stanley Cup fi nal, losing in six games to the Los Angeles Kings.Rangers fans are hoping for a different result this year. If Nash is able to carry his regular-season scoring exploits into the post-season, it could be another long run for the Rangers, who are in the upper ranks of the Eastern Conference standings and a solid bet to make the playoffs. “He’s a pretty quiet guy, but he leads the way he plays,” Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist told the Times. “He plays hard, but the work ethic is so impressive to see.”If his post-season play rivals his regular-season performance, the Rangers could be in for another long playoff run.

Nope, it’s fresh.”• Comedy writer Alex Kaseberg: “The Chicago Cubs’ renovation of Wrigley Field has caused a huge neighbourhood rat infestation. The good news? They’re Cubs rats, so they’ll be gone by October.”• Kaseberg again: “The woman on the cover of Sports Illustrated’s swimsuit issue, Hannah Davis, is Derek Jeter’s girlfriend. ‘We want your retirement gifts back,’ said all of baseball.”• Headline at SportsPickle.com: “New father Richard Sherman picks fi ght with guy in ‘World’s #1 Dad’ T-shirt.”• Wayne Gretzky, quoted by the Saskatoon StarPhoenix, after fl ying into the frozen Canadian heartland for a tribute to fellow hockey icon Gordie Howe: “Why couldn’t Mr. Hockey have been born in Mexico?”• Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times: “Diana Taurasi’s Russian basketball team is paying the Phoenix Mercury star to sit out the 2015 WNBA season. Seahawk fans, not to be upstaged, are already passing the hat for Tom Brady.”• Headline at Sportspickle.com: “God apologizes to

Russell Wilson. ‘I didn’t think I had to tell you to run Marshawn Lynch from the one.’”• Greg Cote of the Miami Herald: “The Dolphins Cycling Challenge, a fundraiser for cancer research, ends Sunday. It is thought to be the only thing associated with the current Dolphins not subject to criticism.”• Another one from Cote: “Coral Springs High won the state title in competitive cheerleading. Question: Do cheerleading teams have cheerleaders?”• Dickson again: “Former Baltimore Raven Terrence Cody was indicted for illegally keeping an alligator. It’s safe to say that, in the past couple of years, NFL and former NFL players have broken every law known to mankind.”• Comedy writer Jim Barach: “A report says the Atlanta Falcons have the easiest schedule in the NFL in 2015. The only way it could be easier is if they had a chance to play the Atlanta Falcons.”• Barach again, regurgitating a 23-year-old joke: “Former Buffalo Bills kicker Scott Norwood is reportedly selling his AFC Championship rings. Norwood says he will miss them. Wide right.”• RJ Currie of sportsdeke.com: “A record 2.7 million Canadians took in the Eugenie Bouchard-Maria Sharapova Aussie Open quarter-fi nal. Of those, 99 per cent were males ages 18-35; the rest like tennis.” Care to comment? Email [email protected] Benjamin

Spirit Week The Student Leadership Team did a great job putting on Spirit Week. The students loved the opportunity to dress up for some crazy school spirit fun. Spirit Days included 80’s Day, Fluorescent Day, Formal Day, Twin Day, and Character Day. There were many wild and creative outfi ts roaming the halls. Sr. Badminton has “open” practices Tuesday evenings from 7:30 to 9:00pm. Junior Drama continues weekly as they get ready for their performance in the months ahead. Practices in February will be Wednesdays from 6 to 8pm at GFK School and Thursdays from 3:30 to 5:30 at CES. Anyone who is interested in advertising on the school’s virtual signs should contact Mr. Howe at the school. Check out the school’s new website.

Moose Mountain Lions

WinterFun Day!

Right: In addition to tobogganing on Kenosee Lake’s McNaughton Toboggan Hill, people enjoying the Moose M o u n t a i n L i o n ’s Club’s Winter Fun Day also enjoyed Moose Mountain Provincial Park’s snowmobi le and cross-country ski trails. As a non-profit community service , the Lions Club also rents cross-country skiis and snowshoes at the Kenosee Inn. The rental income is used to purchase replacement equipment.

Winter activities were the centrepiece of the Moose Mountain Lions’ Winter Fun Day held Saturday, Feb. 21 in Moose Mountain Provincial Park. In the past, the annual event has allowed the Lions Club to raise money for local projects, such as purchasing a second playground to be instaled this spring at Kenosee Lake’s village beach. Lions Club member Matthiew Dostie (pictured) mans the barbeque at McNaughton Toboggan Hill.

Right: The day-long Winter Fun Day held Saturday, Feb. 21 at Moose Mountain Provincial Park began with a pancake breakfast at the Moose Mountain Church of Christ, while the afternoon’s menu featured smokies and fi re-roasted hot chocolate. Here Paul Moore, the Church’s minister and Moose Mountain Lion’s Club member, gets the hot chocolate cooking.

Outdoor enthusiasts fueled up at a pancake breakfast at the Moose Mountain Church of Christ on Saturday, Feb. 21. The breakfast kicked off the Moose Mountain Lions Club’s day-long Winter Fun Day at Kenosee Lake. Kitchen crew members (l-r) Carolyn McMillan, Evelyn Cullum, Tami Dovell, Will Sinclair and Edrina Sinclair pause for a picture.

The Moose Mountain Lions Club’s annual Winter Fun Day has become a tradition for those who embrace and enjoy winter. The event is “Something we put on for our community to enjoy,” says Lions’ den leader and Kenosee Lake resident, Tamara Kapell. “And we can’t thank them enough for all of their support.” The Lions Club used the shelter at the McNaughton Toboggan Hill to provide provide warmth, water, food, and hot chocolate to participants.

We have our Lions meetings here and there and all kinds of other events and classes held here. It’s like a community centre for Kenosee Lake.”

[whose intention is to en-hance the lives of the resi-dents and support the staff who care for them]Submitted by Myrla Hol-land Nine members braved the weather to attend the regular meeting of Friends

Friends of Moose Mountain Lodge of Moose Mountain Lodge February 10th, 2015 in the Activity Room at the Lodge. Since the second Tuesday of the month has proven to be unsatisfactory for several people regular meetings will be changed to the fourth Tuesday of the

month on a motion carried by the meeting. Hence the next meeting is not until March 24th. Tom, the cat who has decided to move into the Lodge has had the neces-sary surgery and shots to allow him to stay. We are grateful to a family who has picked up that cost and to another volunteer who has supplied kitty litter and cat food. Friends of MML have decided to cover fu-ture costs because we know that Tom’s residency at the Lodge will be very benefi -cial to many residents. He is a calm and gentle cat as well as being very handsome. Fresh fruit with supper has been supplied to the residents twice now and the feedback from residents and staff has been extremely positive. We need to coordi-nate with the kitchen staff and need three volunteers to do the preparation – pur-

chasing, washing, peeling and cutting up – so it is a relatively easy program to provide when compared to the benefi ts in appreciation from the residents. We will attempt to continue this twice each month. The second program started is ‘Welcome to Moose Mountain Lodge’ bouquets of fl owers. To date three people have received a bouquet. The staff person heading up this program says it is the most enjoyable thing to be doing because people are so delighted and grateful to be receiving this welcome gift. The March Birthday Party will be held near to St. Patrick’s Day with that being the theme. The date will be determined when we know which day the entertainers can come. All Friends of MML are asked to attend since we are the sponsor of the March party. Members of the general public are also encouraged to attend. Fr iends of Moose Mountain Lodge now has its own Facebook page so anyone who is on Facebook can check frequently to see what we are doing at the Lodge. The residents look

forward to visits so anyone who can drop in is certainly encouraged to do so. We are slowly getting organized and have es-tablished written Rules of Operation and Governance as well as a pamphlet to include in the Admission Package for residents and their families. The aim is to educate people regarding what we are hoping to ac-complish for the residents. People continue to enthusiastically volunteer to help. This has been our most rewarding realiza-tion since the idea for this group started last fall. At this last meeting we had a group of business people indicate that they would like to volunteer as a group and by doing so would be able to access a monetary dona-tion program available from their business. Several pos-sible ideas were put forth and we will certainly fi gure out with them what can be done to assist their volun-teer efforts to give back to the community and to expand our bank account. It is well known that programs can not be sustained without the fi nancial resources to do so. Monetary donations

f rom individuals and groups have served to make our start up rela-tively problem free. We have determined that those who are wanting a tax de-ductible receipt can have one by donating through the Town of Carlyle. Just be certain to write Friends of Moose Mountain Lodge in the memo line of your cheque. If you do not need a tax deductible receipt you may give your donation to any member of Friends of Moose Mountain Lodge. Many great ideas and suggestions were again evident at the meeting – now we have to figure out how to make as many of them a reality as pos-sible. Anyone who wants to put forth ideas or sug-gestions of anything that would make the living at the Lodge more interesting and fun please let a Friend of Moose Mountain Lodge know. Help us out by pro-viding the ‘why’ you think this is a good idea, where we can access the resources – people, equipment, etc – to make your idea happen, the approximate cost of your idea and if you can personally help with mak-ing it happen.

Week 4

See next week’s issue for another Letter from Africa. If you have missed previous please contact us for a hard copy or visit our website at www.carlyleobserver.com (Nicole Andrew (20) of Carlyle is currently living in Nairobi, Kenya, where she is work-ing with Jacaranda Community, a mission founded and run by evangelists, Garry and Brenda Kean. While here Nicole will be working alongside single mothers and their children helping them overcome the cycle of poverty in the slums of Nairobi. During her time in Africa she will be sending The Observer weekly letters about her experiences and is also keeping a blog; follow her at https://nicoleinafrica2015.wordpress.com.)

02.25.2015

I don’t have many stories for you this week as I have spent a lot of time in

the of ce where I’ve been needed most recently. Let me tell you, the work these ladies have to do is not easy! They are complex and lengthy jobs and I’m so thank-ful to have them helping me and quite happy to be able to help them! It has turned into an amaz-ing relationship! I have so much love, admiration and respect for them! They have taught me so much already and I know I still have so much to learn from them! I received a few emails this week, as well as some comments on previous blog posts and it’s been really encouraging! Most of these responses I’ve gotten have been from people I don’t know! So while I could go ahead and tell you more about Kenya, about how beautiful and warm it is, how wonder-ful the thunderstorms are and how fresh and clean it smells after the rain, the gorgeous smiling children with their warm hugs and the enthusiastic singing and dancing at church, I thought it might be fun to share a little bit about who I am. So many people are supporting me and encouraging me that I don’t even know, and so I’m going to take some time to share with you a little about who I am and why I ended up in Africa. I’m a small town girl, born and raised! I have a wonderful fam-ily, two amazing parents that are my biggest sup-porters being here and I have two lovely little brothers, who are both bigger than me and are probably the reason I’m as tough as I am! I didn’t always grow up in a Christian home, I mean yes we went to church most Sundays, or at least some Sun-days but we weren’t a family that lived any differently during the week and just made sure we showed up at church. When I was about eight that changed a little bit, my parents found a close friendship with a Pastor and his wife and my brothers and I became fast friends with

their children. Things changed in our home after this. We attended church faithfully and soon my parents got baptized. We went from a loud, angry, ghting family to a family that talked about everything, we became quite close and spent much more time together. There was a

newfound peace in our home and the only change I really knew of was that we were now a “Christian

Family” and I was okay with that change. I can tell you that it was likely a summer at Bible camp when I decided that I wanted to be a Christian but I can tell you that it wasn’t because I completely understood what it meant to be a Christian, or that I just

wanted to be like the rest of my friends at camp, it was honestly because I have always been an on edge, intense, high strung, nervous and shy person. I saw a sense of peace that being a “Christian” brought into our home and I wanted that same thing in my life, not really fully knowing what it would take to get there. I use the term ‘Christian’ loosely be-cause I feel like there are so many assumptions and things tied to that word, some good and some bad. Is the reason I’m here because I’m a Christian? Or a good person? What’s the difference? Do I live a perfect life because I follow all the rules? No. Does that make me a hypocrite or less of a Christian? No, it makes me human. I used to think

that rules and doing good things was all it took to make me a “Good Christian”. I thought it was certain friends you had, certain words you didn’t use, certain things you drank, places you didn’t go to and events you could or couldn’t attend. Throw in some ‘good deeds’ and I thought I was well on my way to living like a Good Christian and maybe get myself a few brownie points to get into heaven while I was at it. And while those are good things, that’s not what being a Christian is all about

and it’s not enough reason for me to leave my fam-ily, friends, safety and comforts of home to come to Africa if you ask me! I realize that those rules I thought de ned me as a Christian, were simply there to protect me, to keep me safe and healthy and to have people and experi-ences in my life that bring something positive and uplifting. They are rules or boundaries God gives us because He loves us, not because He wants to control us. And this idea I had about also making sure I “do good things” is also not what’s going to get me to heaven at the end of it all. Yes, absolutely I believe there is a heaven and a hell and it’s something I don’t fully understand nor will I ever understand but the reason Christians do good things is not to make ourselves look better so God will let us in, or at least that’s not why I do it. I live by these rules (at least to the best of my ability), and go on these trips and live the life I do not because I want to be a Good Christian or because it makes me look better to God hoping it will give me a leg up into heaven. I do it because over the past few years I’ve realized that God loves me enough. And not just loves me a little bit, but beyond anything I could fully comprehend. Enough to give up His only son, to let him die so that I didn’t have to. His love

for me is bigger and more incredible than anything I could ever imagine and in return for doing something that amazing for me, the least that I can do is to love the people around me, to feed people who are hungry and clothe people who are naked, because God loves and

cares about these people too. Most of all, I do it to keep sharing this news of a God who loves us so much that He let his son take the fall for all the stupid, sel sh and unnecessary things that we do, and that he just wants us to believe in Him and live in a way that shows Him we love Him too. If you think about it, sharing the Love of God really isn’t a tall order in comparison to the death

Jesus suffered for me. I know not everyone will agree with what I be-lieve a ‘Christian’ is. I know not everyone will under-stand what I mean when I say God loves us, or Jesus died for us. But this is the honest truth of what I believe and why I’m here, doing what I’m doing. It’s not about me, my personal gains, or how I bene t. It’s because I believe in a God that showed how much He loves me by letting his son die for me, that I want Him to know I love Him too and that I will go wherever, for whoever, so that they know that He loves them too. And in the long run I guess, I do gain in some ways. I gain incredible relationships, invaluable life experiences and lessons and a new found sense of thankfulness and awareness of how incredibly blessed I am. My intentions are not to offend or upset. This is simply to share with you who I am, that I’m human the same as each of you, that I make mistakes and I don’t have all the answers, but I live knowing someone loved me enough to die in my place and to love in return, I love through action. I hope if anything is taken away from this, it is that you are greatly and passionately loved, by a God who wants nothing but good things for you. And that there are an endless number of amazing adventures and opportunities waiting for those who will dare to wager that He is, and live a life sold out in Love and Thankfulness in return.

Submitted by Edel Cowan It was in December 1992 that Act One Produc-tions was formed when the decision was made to bring live theater to Alida. This would also give an opportunity to raise funds for the community. It all became a reality in April 1993 when they presented “Run for Your Wife” with eight of our local, talented actors/actresses. Over the

past years the drama pro-ductions have moved from a weekend in April to the second week in March, expanded from two to fi ve performances (Wednesday-Saturday evenings and Sun-day matinee) and they have turned over approximately $140,000.00 to the commu-nity. Act One is very much a community effort and be-ing a small village virtually everyone lends a hand in

some way or another. This, the 22nd year, Act One Productions has de-cided to preform “Caught in the Net” (by Ray Cooney), a sequel to their fi rst play in 1993, with a cast of seven dedicated and talented per-formers (two of these were also in the fi rst play). The play once again takes place in the home of John and Mary Smith in Wimbledon and simultaneously in the

home of John and Bar-bara Smith. John, a bigamist taxi-driver, is trying to keep both his families happy and blissfully unaware of each other. Things are go-ing good until social media gets involved which sends the situation into an out-of-hand juggle with the truth. The cast consists of Kim Carlsen (playing John Smith, the bigamist taxi-driver); Linda Potapinski

(Barbara Smith, 2nd wife of John); Chad Peet (Gavin Smith, 16 year old son of John and Barbara, who is looking for his true love); Margaret Peet (Mary Smith, 1st wife of John); Shanna Carriere (Vicki Smith, 15 year old daughter of John and Mary, who is desperate-ly looking for a boy); Tim Cowan (Stanley Gardner, a not so overly bright tenant of John and Mary); Dale

Potapinski (Dad, who is in his 80s is dad of Stanley). You can be sure that their antics throughout the play will unravel another hilari-ous performance. This year’s produc-tion is dedicated to Noel Gervais (1959-2014) who was one of the original cast members. Noel had performed in twelve pro-ductions from 1993 -2008 in which he has been an artist, a doctor, a police-man, Santa/Easter bunny, a nun, an American native, a rich Barron, just to name a few. In 1995 Noel came up with the idea of a pan-tomime skit, so from his creative mind and an epi-sode of Mr. Bean, “Upon a Park Bench” was written and performed before the main production. Noel was Hobo Joe in the skit. After this performance the skit and others where soon in much demand to be had as fundraisers. From the continuously outrageous and humorous antics of the performers of these hilarious pantomime skits the name “Village Idiots” was soon bestowed upon them. Opening night for this year’s performance is on Wednesday, March 11 fea-turing delicious homemade desserts. Cocktail theaters follow on Thursday, March 12 and Friday, March 13 evenings. On Saturday, March 14 is the Dinner theater featuring Chicken Oscar, stuffed potato, veg-etable, etc. and on Sunday, March 15 is the afternoon Matinee with homemade cookies and drinks dur-ing the intermissions. This brings our drama week to a close. Do hope to see you sometime during one of these performances.

By Calvin Daniels The beef sector has been experiencing record high prices in recent months, with the prospect of good prices remaining for some time as the industry slowly rebuilds cow numbers. It has been a good time for beef farmers who have often faced razor-thin margins in the not so distant past. The current market strength has allowed producers to once again see profi ts on their operations. But markets are always a volatile place, and a recent announcement in terms of Canadian herd health coming out of Alberta has to send shivers through the entire beef industry in this country. Canada’s 19th case of Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), also known as mad cow disease, was confi rmed in an Alberta cow by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency on Feb.11. It was back in May 2003 the CFIA announced a black Angus cow

from northern Alberta had been found to have bovine spongiform encephalopathy. United States immediately closed its border to Canadian beef and cattle. About 40 countries follow suit. The border closures then rocked the Canadian beef industry to its very core. Producers here produce more than domestic consumption in most farm products, meaning huge amounts must go to export. When the borders close to such sales it is diffi cult for the Canadian market to absorb the extra product, especially in the case of something like beef, where animals need to be butchered in a somewhat time sensitive fashion. We saw Canadians rally to the cause to support farmers, with some fast food chains even converting to Canadian only beef at the time as a show of solidarity with farmers. But prices still tumbled. Aged cows in particular plummeted from

hundreds of dollars for a cull cow, to tens of dollars. Not surprisingly farm profi ts nose-dived. By February 2004, Statistics Canada reported farm income had fell to its lowest level in three years in 2003 due in part to the mad cow crisis. By late 2004, losses were massive. A report from the BMO’s economics department suggested Canadian cattle producers had lost about $5 billion since the crisis began. It took years for the market to fully stabilize in terms of open border access to the list of countries which had so quickly clamped them closed. Since then protocols have been established to both do more testing to ensure Canadian cow herd health in terms of BSE, and to establish thresholds which have helped hold market access in the face of subsequent positive tests. In 2014, Canada tested just over 27,000 cattle for BSE. Canada’s last previous confi rmed case of BSE was reported in 2011 in a cow born in August 2004. Now a new case pops up. And it could have an impact on markets, and Canada’s BSE status, especially depending on its age. If the cow is over 11 years old little changes. But, if the cow is under 11 years old, Canada would no longer be able to apply to the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) to have Canada’s status moved from “controlled BSE risk” to “negligible”. Under the OIE criteria, a country can be categorized as negligible risk if it has never had a case of BSE in a domestic animal or if any infected animals were born more than 11 years ago. Canadian offi cials have been preparing to apply for a change in the OIE risk status. The OIE status and how other country’s view Canadian beef are important, and the most recent BSE case only goes to once more show how fragile an agriculture sector is to infl uences which are beyond producers to control.

Markets are always a volatile place

In Memoriam

Behr, Jean - In memory of our mom and grandmaWe’ll remember you with a smile todayYou were not one for tearsWe’ll reflect instead on memo-riesOf all the happy years.

The special times we had to-gether Your eyes that shone with laughterSo much of you will never leave usBut live on ever after.Lovingly remembered by Rob-bi, Dick (Barb), Glen and Shei-la

DANGSTORP: Marion Lenore Dangstorp, Sept. 20, 1931 - Feb. 16, 2012.You can only have one moth-er,Patient, kind, and true;No other friend in all the world,Will be the same to you.

When other friends forsake you,To mother you will turn,For all her loving kindness,She asks nothing in return.

As we look upon her picture,Sweet memories we recall,Of a face so full of sunshine,And a smile for one and all

Sweet Jesus, take this mes-sage,To our dear mother up above;Tell her how we miss her,And give her all our love.Always remembered by your family

In Memoriam

LEMIEUX: In Memory of Brian Lemieux.Sept. 20, 1950 - Feb. 27, 2014.

Our Family ChainWe all knew that morningGod would call your name.In life we loved you dearly;In death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you,But you didn’t go alone;For a part of us went with you,The day God ca l led you home.

You left us loving memories,Your love is still our guide,And though we cannot see you,You are always by our side.

Our family chain is brokenAnd our l ives are not the same,But as God calls us one by one,The chain will link again.

Author - Ron Tranmer

Love always, Melanie and Sarah,David and Mandy,Jacqueline, Bobbie, Natalie and Luke

Card of Thanks

Thank-you to all those people who provided support to our father during his illness and stay in Moosomin Hospital. A special thank-you to the Dr. Plewes and the rest of the hospital staff whose profes-sionalism and compassion made his final days peaceful and pain free. We would like to extend our heartfelt appre-ciation to Redvers and sur-rounding communities, many lifelong friends who were there with him in the days before his passing.No funeral service can take place without the involvement of many. We would l ike to thank: Hall Funeral Services, for their kind support and guid-ance ; Reverend Miche l le Moore, for providing the ser-vice; the UCW and Lutheran Ladies, for providing a deli-cious lunch; the Redvers Rec-reation Board, for use of the facility; Redvers School staff and students, for the use and set up of chairs; John Sargent, for providing and setting up the sound system; all those who attended, for showing your respect for Emil and sup-port for his family.

The Emil Dangstorp Family

Don Milton HislopSeptember 10, 1924-February 13, 2015

Don was born on September 10, 1924 on the family farm at Arcola, Saskatchewan and passed away peacefully surrounded by family February 13, 2015. Don attended school in Arcola and enlisted in the South Saskatchewan Regiment in November, 1941. He served overseas in France, Belgium, Holland and Germany. He returned home in November, 1945 and was discharged in January, 1946. When Don returned from the War, he built and operated a garage for a number of years in Arcola with the help of his father

and brother Russ. Don married Joyce Chandler on September 27, 1949 in Arcola. He sold the garage and then owned and operated school buses in the district for several years. He also owned one of the rst Bombardiers in Arcola and spent many cold, blizzardy days and nights driving it. Don started farming in 1961 on land originally owned by his grandfather. That land is now being farmed by the fth generation of Hislop’s. Don loved the Moose Mountains, better known to him as the “bush”. Don also custom hauled cattle in South Eastern Saskatchewan for many years. Don & Joyce raised three children in Arcola – Linda, Judy and Scott. Don will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 65 years, Joyce, and family: Linda (Don), Pam (Shawn) & Khrista (Matt); Judy (Frank), Stacey (John), Shannon (Kim), Chad (Lisa) & Marlis (Scott); Scott (Elaine), Lucas, Tyson & Hayley; and 13 great grandchildren and many nieces and nephews. He was pre-deceased by his parents, Thomas & Mary Hislop; brothers, Bud & Russ; sisters, Lois & Janet; brothers – in – law, Gordon Chandler & Jack Chandler; and sister-in-law Evelyn Chandler. Family gatherings were a great source of enjoyment for Don. He took pride in the accomplishments of his children & grand children. He was known for his sharp wit, telling stories and his sense of humour. The family would like to thank all those who cared for Don in recent years, at Moose Mountain Lodge, and supported him during his battle with Alzheimer’s. A celebration of life took place at St. Andrews United Church in Arcola on Monday, February 16, 2015. Of ciating the service was Reverend Kochy David. Pallbearers were: Lucas Hislop, Tyson Hislop, Chad Eaton, Shannon Eaton, Matt Kellett & Scott Dalshaug. Soloist was Lisa Eaton. The Eulogy was given by Shannon Eaton, Pam Plaster, Khrista Kellett, Tyson Hislop & Zac Plaster. A tea was held following the service at the Arcola Legion Hall. Donations, in Don’s memory, can be sent to Arcola Health Centre. Thank you to the doctors and all the staff at Moose Mountain Lodge for the care, compassion and love you gave to Dad over the past three years. Each and every one of you are very special people. Thank you also to everyone for the lovely oral arrangements, food, phone calls and visits over the past week. We appreciate the support of family and friends who were able to join us to give our farewells to Dad. Thank you to Wayne Orsted for his professional support with the funeral arrangements, Reverend Kochy David for the service and his patience with us while we made the funeral special and unique to our Husband, Dad and Grandpa and to the United Church Women for the lovely lunch after the service. We will cherish our memories and know he is at peace.

Sincerely, ,Joyce Hislop, Linda Plaster,

Judy Eaton, Scott Hislop and families

Dear Editor, It’s tax season time. After celebrating Family Day on Monday, February 16, 2015, it is appropriate to outline recent initiatives by our Conservative govern-ment to help families. First, we have intro-duced the new Family Tax Cut. This measure is aimed at couples with children under the age of 18, where one spouse is in a higher income tax bracket than the other. The Family Tax Cut can lower a family’s overall tax bill, providing tax relief up to a maximum of $2000. Second, we have en-hanced the Universal Child Care Benefi t (UCCB). Our Government is increasing the UCCB for children un-der age six. As of January 1, 2015, parents will receive a benefi t of $160 per month for each child under the age of six – up from $100 per month. Parents will now receive $1920 per child, per year. We are also expanding the UCCB to children aged six through 17. As of Janu-ary 1, 2015, parents will receive a benefi t of $60 per month for children aged six through 17. Parents will receive $720 per child, per year. Next, we are increasing

the Child Care Expense Deduction dollar limits by $1000 for the 2015 tax year. You or your spouse may be able to claim a deduction for expenses incurred for someone to look after your child so that one of you can work or go to school. We have also doubled the Children’s Fitness Tax Credit from $500 to $1000 per child, starting in the 2014 tax year. Not only has our Gov-ernment lowered taxes, we are also making it easier to fi le your taxes. Four in five Canadians are now experiencing the ease of fi ling online. Many are receiving their tax refund in as little as 8 days when using direct deposit. That’s our Gov-ernment putting more of your money back in your pocket at the earliest op-portunity. As our Prime Minister has said, our Government is fulfi lling our promise to balance the federal budget. We are now in a position to fulfi ll our promise to help Canadian families balance theirs.

Yours truly,Ed Komarnicki

Measles Immunization in Saskatchewan The recent View from the Desk of the CEO about protecting yourself from measles provided information on the Canadian guidelines for immunization on the website of the Public Health Agency of Canada. Each province has slightly diff erent policies, and the bullets below summarize current Saskatchewan policy related to measles vaccine:

• Make sure your children are up to date. In the Saskatchewan immunization schedule, children receive 2 (two) doses of measles ..containing vaccine at 12 months and 18 months.• Adults born in 1970 or more recently are eligible for 2 (two) doses of measles containing vaccine. International travelers who were born ..between 1950 and 1970 are also eligible for one dose of measles vaccine unless they remember being vaccinated, have had measles ..disease in the past, or a blood test to show they are protected.• There is no current recommendation to immunize children early going to the US. In countries where there is particularly high risk ..during outbreaks, infants can be immunized between 6 and 12 months with an extra (third) dose of measles containing vaccine.• This does not apply to the US or the Americas generally, where, despite the recent US cases, the rates of disease are generally low.

The community of Alida extends their sincerest sympathies to all of the Fenrick families on the sudden death of Jeff Fenrick (Manor) on February 15, 2015 at the age of 64. He was the oldest son of John and Betty Fenrick. They had lived and raised their family of seven at Alida. Spending the past week holidaying in Phoenix, Arizona were Jason, April Junk and family; Ken, Diane Potapinski and girls, Julie and Sadie and Haley Bendtsen accompanied them; Kelly, Trisha Schaulhauser and family. Clint, Stacey Beriault and family enjoyed spending their week of holidays in Mexico. Holidaying for a few days with their grandparents, Mitch and Christ Beriault were Morgan and Austin Milo of Regina. Peter, Rozanne and Sara McClung spent a few days of the holiday week in Regina. On Tuesday, February 17 Gary Junk accompanied Rob Applegate back to Sylvan Lake, AB where he visited with family members before returning home on February 20. Tyler Mailhiot and children, Kaylan and

Tatym spent from February 1-20 visiting with his parents, Prudent and Joey Mailhiot and while here also visited with his sisters, Chelsey and Skylar. There were a number of folks who travelled to Moose Jaw this past week to watch a curling game or two at the Tournament of Hearts. There is a new business set up in Alida – T’S Styles for Miles Hair Salon. It is situated at # 15 200 Centre Street. Give Tristen a call at 306-452-7640 for any information. Sunday breakfast on February 22 was slow, but despite the cold temperatures Kitchen Group 4 was keep busy serving up 43 breakfasts – Way to go guys and gals. Now we will begin round three for breakfasts. Group 1 will be at the helm on Sunday, March 1 in their quest of meeting or beating the breakfast record of 60 which was set by Group 3 during the fi rst go around. Good luck folks. There are only four breakfast left – March 1, 8, 22 and 29. You’ll note NO breakfast on March 15, this is due to the Drama Matinee being held. Please make note of these dates on your March calendar and we hope to see you at breakfast at the hall sometime.

A reminder for the Bingo goers – there will be NO BINGO on Monday, March 9; this is due to it being Drama Week. What a great week to be stuck indoors on these ‘deep-freeze’ days – one could sit back and enjoy watching the great curling games being televised from the Tournament of Hearts which was held at Moose Jaw. Of course I do understand that you do have to enjoy curling to appreciate all these games. As you can see, I for one really enjoy them and to me they seem to go by so quickly. There were some upsets and surprises during the week. The Saskatchewan team did a fi ne job getting into the semi-fi nals and then had to fi ght for the bronze medal. It was a real upset to see that Team Canada didn’t make the fi nals but they too ended up competing and were the winners of the bronze medal. The tournament fi nal was played Sunday evening featuring the Manitoba and Alberta teams, which resulted in Team Manitoba winning the gold with her last rock. Way to Go Jennifer and team – Good luck in the World’s. Now it’s the men’s turn to show us their skills with the rocks on ice. It will be another

week of good curling beginning on Saturday afternoon in Calgary at the Tim Horton’s Brier. Go – Saskatchewan – Go and Good curling to all. Now for the next BIG question – “Will March come in as a Lion

or a Lamb?” Whichever it will be we will gladly say Good-bye to February and welcome in March which hopefully will bring us warmer weather. Once again folks please remember to give me a call (306-443-2496)

or text (306-485-8561) or e-mail ([email protected]) with your news. I do appreciate your co-operation and assistance – couldn’t do it without your help. Until next time – Stay warm – Keep smiling – Drive safely and Take care.

Happiness adds and multiplies when you share it with others. I have some items from Langbank and would appreciate getting more to include with my Kennedy news—thanks to those who have supported my column. I was happy to see the write up about Zoe Dubois in the last Citizen. Congratulations to Zoe from the folks in Kennedy. Emily Dubois had the opportunity to participate in the “Encounters with Canada” program. This is a government funded program that hosts week-long themed sessions throughout the length of the school year. Emily travelled to Ottawa on the 1st of February to attend an Arts and Culture week. She joined 96 other students from across Canada of ages 15-17, at the Terry Fox Centre. Emily attended many different workshops including one on hand drumming, body language, African dancing, and Shakespeare. She also got to explore Canada’s capital by touring the parliament buildings, skating on the Rideau Canal, eating beaver tails, visiting Winterlude, and the National Gallery of Canada and visited famous war memorials, such as the grave of the Unknown soldier. Emily thinks it was

one of the best experiences of her life and that every student should take up this amazing opportunity, they will meet lifelong friends and make life long memories. Emily would like to thank the Prairie Valley School Division for their fi nancial support. Congratulations from Kennedy to Pat Beaujot and Charlotte Roettger on their recent marriage. Due to the weather a number of folks chose not to attend the Friendship Valentine Supper at Moose Mountain Church, Kenosee Lake on the 14th of February. However we were glad to hear they were very happy to have had a good crowd and the evening was great. This past week television viewers had the chance to view some very exciting curling, congratulations to Moose Jaw for hosting the event and to all the curlers, I hope that everyone from the local communities enjoyed their time with the Scotties. Home for the Family Day weekend were—Allan Easton of Moose Jaw, Justin Smyth of Shilo, MB; Andre and Lora, Balin and Kira Mazur of Regina; Brenda Rupert and her friend Jimmy Coates of Australia visited with George and Doreen

Cancade. (only a few that I was told about). Kennedy and district extend their sympathy to the late Martha Warner families—Martha left us on Friday, Feb. 13th after a lengthy stay in the two homes at Broadview. Shirley Hurranrd of Saskatoon visited with Lanny and Jean Sostorics and other family members this past weekend. George and I, Cal and Yvonne Abrahamson of Montmartre attended a family gathering for Gloria Rupert at the home of Tim and Glenda Shotter’s and family of Osage on Saturday, Feb. 21st. The fi rst time for 5 years since Glenda, Glen and children of Holbein, Janice of Ottawa, Maureen of Calgary, Ryan of Wawota, Brenda of Melbourn, Australia had the privilege of spending quality time together.
