The MS Kids Camp gives children with family members affected by the disease an opportunity to learn
more about it through games and play. This year the camp runs from Aug. 2 to 5 and is free of charge.
Giving kids a break
by Jaime Polmateer
[email protected]
Having family members with
Multiple Sclerosis is never easy
and can often lead to children of
those affected taking on responsibilities at a young age.
That can have them growing
up too fast and missing out on
aspects of their childhood.
The Lloydminster chapter of
the MS Society is holding a kids’
camp for that reason—to help
children with family members
suffering from the disease learn
more about it and connect with
others in the same situation.
“Our 2016 annual MS Kids
Camp is set to take place Aug. 2
to 5 this year, so it’s a day camp
that offers children ages four
to 12 who have a connection to
MS, either a parent or family
member living with the disease,
an opportunity to come together
with peers who are living with
the same realities,” said Johanna
Green,
Lakeland
regional
director for the MS Society of
Canada.
“Our camp offers them
morning education opportunities to teach the children a little
more about MS in a format that
is not intimidating, that uses
crafts and games as a means of
translating information to them
about MS and the challenges it
might pose in their lives.”
Green said the camp also gives
children the tools they need in
terms of how to better cope with
symptoms loved ones could be
experiencing while they deal
with the disease in their families.
The event also has afternoon
field trips to places like the
petting zoo, swimming pool
and A Bit Extreme as a way to
allow the children who might
have parents that, because of
their symptoms, can’t easily
take them places because of
mobility issues.
There are also educational
activities that’ll take place like
MS Jeopardy and Minuteto-Win-It
highlighting
MS
Symptoms so the children can
learn more about the disease
through play.
“We teach them coping skills
and also just provide them with
an opportunity to learn a bit
more about the disease with
an aim of taking away the fear
that might come with a family
member’s diagnosis of MS and
replace it with knowledge and
empowerment to position them
and their family to feel better
able to deal with MS in their
lives,” said Green.
Because of the mobility challenges and severe fatigue that
MS can cause in a parent’s life,
a child can, in essence, become

a first level caregiver for the
parent affected.
Green said that child may
have to help more readily and
frequently with household
duties than other children their
age and that could limit the
child’s ability to have normal
experiences and be an active
member of the community.
“Typically, a child who has a
parent living with MS is faced
with the reality of growing
up much faster than any child
should,” she said.
And because MS can be an
expensive disease to live with,
the MS Kids Camp is offered
free of charge.
It comes as one of the various
programs and services offered
by the Lloydminster chapter
as a way of making sure it can
enhance the quality of life of
people impacted by the disease.
“We certainly don’t want to
add to that cost and the camp
is made possible through the
dedicated efforts of people
throughout the community who
support not only the camp, but
our various activities through
their generosity and sponsorship and fundraising throughout the course of the year,” said
Green.

and let the show begin!
What does the future of energy
look like for Saskatchewan?
Sask Power’s Power to Grow
demonstrations, of which its’ done
230 across the province in the last
two years, including a stop at this
year’s Colonial Days Fair, gives
curious minds a glimpse of what
the company has in store for the
next couple of decades.
“The Power to Grow is an
interactive experience and it’s
intended to educate people about
power and the province’s power
challenge and Sask Power’s plans
for the future,” said Guy Bruce,
vice president of planning, environment and sustainable development.
“It’s meant to be a fun interactive
thing where folks can go through it
at their own place and learn about
where electricity comes from, how
it’s delivered, and what they can
do to maybe save some money on
their power bill.”
Power to Grow is setup in an
inflatable tent, fitting about 20
people at a time, and is complete
with interactive guides that lead
participants through, giving them
the opportunity to visit computer
stations where they can learn
which power sources are used in
their homes.
There are also pedal bikes
where people can see how much
power they can generate through
pedalling and other features that
help Saskatchewan residents learn
about electricity. Bruce said one of
the messages the company wants
to put out is that there’s a growing
demand for power in the province
and it’s Sask Power’s goal to
introduce 50 per cent renewable
energy by 2030.
“That’s our target and that’s part
of our plan for reducing greenhouse gas emission by about 40
per cent from 2005 by 2030,” he
said.
“There’s some information there
about programs that are available
to help customers conserve power
and use power more efficiently.”
The increased demand for
power isn’t necessarily a problem,
he said, but with more people
moving to Saskatchewan. and the
overall continued growth of the
province, it’s important for the
utility company to keep up.
Other information put out at
the Power to Grow experience
involves old infrastructure in
Saskatchewan, much of it built in
the 60s, 70s, and early 80s, and the
amount of new investment being
put toward modernizing it—and
also adding new infrastructure to
keep up with that growth.
This is why the demonstrations
have a feature on the “power grid
of tomorrow” and the changes that
will be made to make power use
and distribution more efficient.
“It’s a little bit of a glimpse into
the future of what’s possible; you
hear a lot of people talking about
maybe some customers who want
to generate some of their own
electricity, maybe putting solar
on their roof, that type of thing,”
Bruce said.
“And we’re looking at modernizing and updating our grid to
make it more reliable and make it
more efficient.”
Some of these modernizations
will include finding other cleaner
ways of generating electricity
while also continuing to provide
reliable and cost effective service.
This will be achieved by
using large scale wind generation, biomass and geothermal
energy, complimented by fire
generation from natural gas.

of Saskatchewan’s power systems,

Don’t be another tragic statistic
Numbers show 80 per cent of boaters who drown were not wearing a PFD
The Canadian Safe Boating Council
(CSBC) and the Saskatchewan
Wildlife Federation (SWF) want to
remind anglers that wearing your
lifejacket is even more important
than wearing your lucky fishing hat. But they do share one trait. They both have to be worn to be
effective!
According to the Canadian Safe
Boating Council and the Lifesaving
Society, 80 per cent of recreational
boaters who drown each and every
year in Canada were not wearing
a lifejacket or Personal Floatation
Device (PFD).
Most of these drownings occur in
small, open power boats, accounting
for 60 per cent of these preventable
deaths.
A majority of these victims were
males between the ages of 19 and 35,
out for a day of fishing.
Many of those who don’t wear their
lifejackets or PFDs believe that, since
they are good swimmers, having
them onboard and within easy reach
is good enough.
But a lifejacket stored under a seat
or up in the bow will be of no help
when the unexpected happens, like
falling overboard while trying to net
the catch.
“National surveys clearly show
that more than half the recreational
boats sold in Canada are used for
fishing on a regular basis,” said John
Gullick, chair of the Canadian Safe
Boating Council.
“The Canadian Safe Boating
Council would like to remind all
anglers not only to have their lifejacket onboard their boat, but to
wear it as if their life depended on
it—because it just might!”
Many of today’s anglers are

delighted with the models that are
designed especially to suit their
needs. They’re rugged, allow for full
freedom of movement to cast and are
constructed with lots of pockets for
gear. Some even come equipped with
an attachment from which to hang a
landing net. When choosing their lifejacket,
anglers should also check the label
to make sure it is Transport Canada
approved, is the correct size and fits
snugly.
“Spending time on Saskatchewan’s
waterways with family and friends
is a quality of life benefit enjoyed by
hundreds of thousands of Saskatchewan residents every year.
We encourage everyone to be
proactive and wear a lifejacket,” said
Darrell Crabbe, executive director of
the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation.
Please don’t become a statistic.”
Fishing is a part of our Canadian
fabric and an activity that’s easy to
get hooked on.
At this important time of year, the
CSBC and SWF are asking those who
fish to get hooked on lifejackets’ too.

Success summers in Lloyd
by Geoff Lee
[email protected]
If Bonnie Cutsforth-Huber had to
sing for her dinner, she would get
second helpings and dessert with her
commanding contralto voice.
The Maidstone born and bred international opera star is on a summer
break in Lloydminster from her job
as an associate professor of music at
Penn State University.
This marks the third year in a row
she’s spent a week teaching young
singers at the Summer School for the
Voice in North Battleford.
“I make an effort to make sure
my schedule is clear so I can come
home to the province and teach
the next generation of singers and
musicians,” she said in an interview
with the Source from her sister’s
house in Lloydminster.
“There’s a lot of talented kids in
the prairie provinces, so I think it’s
important for people like me to give
back and come back.”
At 43, her energy and resolve to
teach others is remarkable given she’s
endured a couple of brain surgeries
since being diagnosed with Chiari
Malformation when she was 34.
Her condition was a life threatening malformation of the brain
that blocked messages to her vocal
chords, inhibited her ability to
breath or swallow among a suite of
symptoms due to nerve damage.
She has had to relearn how to sing
and recently wowed audiences in her
home province of Saskatchewan.
On May 7, she performed with the
Regina Symphony Orchestra and
then on May 14, she sang with the
Saskatoon Symphony orchestra with
no hint of medical troubles in her
voice.
“Usually with Chiari it’s not
something that you can cure 100 per
cent,” she said, noting her condition
has been stable for the past three
years.
“Things are the best now than
they’ve been which is the direction
we need to go.”
That confidence brought her back
to give back to her home province.
“That was really important to me,
so it was really wonderful,” she said
of her symphony showings.
While growing up in Maidstone,
she used to sing in annual music
festivals in Lloydminster and in
provincial competitions.
As a professional opera singer, she
said she’d love to put on a recital for
local residents next year to celebrate
Canada’s 150 birthday.
“It would be nice to put something
together for a performance in Lloydminster since it’s my home turf,” she
said.
Cutsforth-Huber started voice
lessons in Maidstone when she was
just four and admits there wasn’t a
lot of opera, if any, going on in her
community when she was growing
up.
“My parents and my grandparents
bought me lots of recordings and
videos and that’s how I was exposed
to it,” she said.
She said neither of her parents are
musical, but they always encouraged
her in what she wanted to do and

gave her the lessons she needed.
“There is no way I would be where I
am today if it wasn’t for my parents,”
she said.
Her talent has led her to perform
all over the world including stints in
France, Germany, Austria and Italy
in Europe.
Closer to home, she’s performed at
Carnegie Hall in 2012 and the Lincoln
Centre in New York in 2014.
Cutsforth-Huber earned a bachelor
of music degree at the University of
Saskatchewan then a master’s degree
from Southern Illinois University and a PhD from the University of
Kentucky.
She has not recorded any albums
yet, but teased she has some projects
in the works that could change that.

Banff is calling local songwriter
by Geoff Lee
[email protected]
It would mean everything to Sam
Lundell to win a $10,000 scholarship to the Banff Centre for the Arts
to pursue his craft as an indie rock
artist.
The 19 year-old singer songwriter
from nearby Islay is counting on fan
votes this week for his first music
video for his original song Everything
released on Monday.
“It’s an amazing experience,” said
Lundell, who is over the moon with
the possible outcome.
“If we get the votes and the judges
deem us worthy as well, then that
will be a $10,000 grant to the Banff
Centre.”
The voting ends Friday on
Storyhive.com,
a
Telus-based
production funding and distribution
competition for emerging content
creators in B.C. and Alberta.
Lundell teamed up with Edmonton
filmmaker Justin Brunelle and cinematographer David Baron, formerly
of Vermilion, to create the video for
Telus Optik TV’s Storyhive.
The Everything video was funded
from a $10,000 Storyhive grant
given to 17 Alberta and B.C. artists
competing for the Banff scholarship.
“It’s been an amazing day,” said
Lundell soon after the announcement of the release.
“We are so looking forward to the
video coming out and people experiencing the video for the first time.”
Everything is available for purchase
on CDBaby.com and can also be
played on Storyhive’s YouTube

music video channel.
Or follow the links on Sam
Lundell’s own website.
“We’ve got it playing on Wayne FM
(Wainwright) and I think possibly
on K-Rock as well,” said Lundell on
Monday.
Lundell said he and his brother
Marshall wrote the original version
of Everything a few years ago with
the music video bringing the story
behind it to life.
The music video follows a young
woman searching for time to selfreflect while on a life-changing
hitchhiking trip through Alberta’s
countryside.
The Sam Lundell Band drives the
video’s message of finding freedom
and love in what seems to be the
darkest of times according to the new
release.
Lundell has been writing songs off
and on for the past four years, but
he’s held off playing them at his live
gigs throughout Alberta.
He said he is very protective of
his own work, noting the success of
his Everything song could open the
creative floodgates.
“I have lots of songs incubating
that I have yet to bring out in the
public eye,” said Lundell.
“I am realizing more these days,
my songs need to have wings and get
them out there so this is a good way
to get that started.”
Currently, Lundell makes a living
as a music teacher in Islay while he
dares to dream of playing music and
releasing records full time.
“I’d love to play for people who
believe in the songs that I am
singing,” he said.
“I want to sing songs that I believe
in and other people are connected
to—that’s the dream career-wise and
if I can make enough to live on, then
I am more than happy.”
Music kind of runs in his family as
his oldest brother Dallas performed
at Carnegie Hall when he was just
17 and his mom is also musically
inclined.
“We like to say mom is the musical
one and dad drives the bus,” joked
Lundell, who noted
Marshall
is actually “very quiet” with his
musical gifts these days.
Lundell is grateful for being
approached by Brunelle and Baron
who have worked on other Storyhive
funded projects and were headhunting for a new artist.
“They had a few options and they
ended up settling on me—they asked
me if I wanted to do it and I looked
up their work, and I was extremely
impressed,” said Lundell.
He said Brunelle has an eye for
lighting and nature with some of the
scenes filmed near his family’s ranch
in Islay.

The weather is hot,
the water is cool, and
community swimming
lessons are in full
swing at Sandy Beach
Regional Park.
Each year the lessons
are taught during the
third week of July, and
teaches kids water
safety from the beginner
level of sea otter, all the
way to level 10, so kids
know how to be safe
around the open water.
Nine-year old Jonah
Lopez, who has made
it to level nine, said
the lessons are fun and
he’s learning how to
do different styles of
swimming.
“I signed up because
I can learn to swim
different, so I can swim
faster,” he said.
“It’s good to learn to
be safe around water
because if you’re in an
emergency, you can
remember what you
learned and you can
use some of the skills.”
He
said
besides
different swim styles,
he’s also learned about
safe boating and what
a person should bring
when planning to go on
a watercraft.
Lopez’s
mother,
Michelle, is a volunteer
organizer for the lessons
and said Red Cross
certified
instructors
are hired to teach the
children, also offering
components in CPR
and First Aid.
She said the lessons
are valuable for the kids
because swimming is
a life skill for all kids,
and in most cases,
especially when at
lakes, swimming is an
unsupervised activity.
“Just
recognizing
water safety, water
hazards, the idea of
distance swimming—
you see something and
think you’re going to
swim to it and it’s much
farther than anticipated,” she said.
“So just the overall
aspect of safety that you
cannot get when you’re
in a four walled pool.”
Some of the different
things students learn
are the basic front and
back floats, all of the

Breaking
new land
MY
LLOYDMINSTER
by Sandra L. Brown
When
the
Barr
Colonists first arrived
in 1903 from England
and settled in our
area, daunting tasks
lay ahead.
They wisely chose
a very fertile land
for agriculture, not
realizing
vast
oil
and gas reserves lay
beneath their feet.
Building
homesteads, preparing the
unbroken prairie sod
for planting crops,
setting-up businesses,
and adjusting to a new
way of life accompanied the passionate
ambition of working
together.
Making time for
social activities and
favourite
pastimes,
these folks persevered and laid down
a strong foundation
for building Lloydminster.
Some settled along
the
way,
joining
other towns as they
journeyed
across
Canada by rail and
then by horse- or
ox-drawn
wagons
after a gruelling ocean
voyage aboard the SS
Lake Manitoba.
They
sought
adventure and came
with hopes for a better
life, promises of free
land—with
conditions—and wide-open
spaces.
Rev. George Exton
Lloyd, who fought
with the British in the
1885 Riel Rebellion,
was
the
chosen
chaplain and eventually took over as
leader of the colony.
Rev. Isaac Montgomery Barr was in
charge of a London
church
and
had
previously farmed in
Western Canada.
Together, the two
men shared a vision
of forming a British
colony in Western
Canada.
Perceived
as
a
deterrent
to
the
growth of Lloydminster, the overall health
of the pioneers was a
serious matter.
Apparently, springcleaning
was
an
entirely
different
ritual in April 1907.
A notice in the
Lloydminster Times
indicated all yards
and
closets—a.k.a.
outhouses—must be
thoroughly
cleaned
and disinfected by
May 1.
They could also be
subject to inspection.
Under the provisions of the municipal
ordinance, any person
not complying would
be prosecuted.
Taking pride in their
properties led to a
healthier way of life.
In May 1907, two
delegates went to
Edmonton and Regina
to request the amalgamation of the two
parts of Lloydminster
into one province.
The main street
separated the town
and village along the
provincial boundary
of
Alberta
and
Saskatchewan.
Stores facing each
other were in different
provinces.
The railway station
was in Alberta, but so
close to the provincial
line that when a long
train stopped at the
platform, its caboose
was in Saskatchewan.
The
government
members
were
agreeable, but stated
the matter had to be
dealt with by Ottawa.
A
plebiscite
acceding to the wishes
of the majority was a
possible solution if all
parties agreed.
Calling off the vote
later on did little to
dissipate the healthy
rivalry between the
town and village.
With
an
active
municipal
administration,
forward
thinking
businessmen on either side
of the boundary, its
fertile land, oil and
gas reserves, Lloydminster ’s prosperity
didn’t just depend on
a possible amalgamation.
Lloydminster was,
and still is, a town
of great importance
and a great power in
this part of Western
Canada.
Interesting
how
more than a century
later this provincial
boundary still raises a
difference of opinion,
depending
upon
which side you’re on.
Eventually,
the
introduction
of
motorized
tractors
changed the farming
landscape when they
pushed out the horses
and oxen that were
used for farming and
transportation.
Work went faster,
allowing more time
for other activities.
More
efficient
seeding
increased
cash crops.
There was pride in
sowing straight rows,
eventually
leading
to harvests of golden
prairie wheat.
The oil and gas
industry
surfaced
with the discovery
of oil distillates on
Charlie Marren’s land
in the mid 1920s.
Businesses quickly
started by relying on
investments by local
shareholders.
In the early 1930s,
the first natural gas
well blew in, energizing the oil and gasproducing focus.
Local men further
fuelled this industry’s
progress with technology improvements.
You don’t need an
agricultural or oil
industry background
to
appreciate
the
numerous contributions made by our
early pioneers in the
development of Lloydminster.
It
takes
great
courage to embrace
change
and
reap
the successes of our
pioneers.
We’re all resourceful pioneers in our
forward
thinking,
community involvement, and ambitions
for growth.
Community,
as
exemplified by the
Barr Colonists, is
people
working
together with a shared
goal.
Many
wooden
spokes make up a
wheel hub, comparable to all the individuals that make up
a community—individuals with progressive spirit and sound
principle.
Living in Lloydminster, Sandra raised her
family here and is a
proud grandmother of
three. Like our early
pioneers to the west, she
encourages everyone to
follow their dreams.

Excuse me while I vine a little bit
GREEN
FILE
by Mark Cullen
www.markcullen.com
I have a 10 year old kiwi vine at the
front of my house that has strangled
my downspout.
This vine, known for producing
the most delicious sweet, green fruit,
about the size of a large grape, is quite
aggressive, but I love it.
It surprises many people that a kiwi
will grow in Canada but I enthusiastically encourage the idea of planting
them (a male and a female as the
flowers are imperfect) where quick,
reliable cover is required over a fence,
around a porch or whatever.
The idea is to cool down your vertical
space and provide shelter for you and
nesting birds. Hardy kiwi is hardy to
zone 5. It makes a fast-growing annual
is colder zones.
In addition to hardy kiwi (actinidia
arguta), I recommend the following
vines for use where you would not
likely grow anything else: walls,
dividers, fences, porch pillars etc.
1. Honeysuckle (lonicera).
Not the once popular flowering
shrub but the twining vine.
Honeysuckle vine blooms for several
weeks, though at its very best for about
10 days in late June and it is not as
aggressive as my kiwi.
The dense clusters of long, trumpet
shaped flowers attract hummingbirds and smell sweet.
A honeysuckle vine will enhance
the appearance of any wall when
grown on a trellis.
It prefers the sun but will tolerate
some shade, though mildew can
become a problem in some shady
circumstances. Hardy to zone 4.
2. Hydrangea (hydrangea anomala).
Again, not to be confused with the
flowering shrub by the same name.
Climbing hydrangea is one of my
favourite permanent vines: it is slow
to establish itself but after a couple of
years in a well-prepared hole it will
take off and produce an abundance
of the most gorgeous broad shaped
umbels of creamy white flowers.
This is a vine that prefers the north or
east side of the house, out of the blazing
sun. It will mature to about the height
of a two story building in seven to nine
years. A keeper. It is self-clinging so
no trellis or support is needed, just a
sturdy wall. Hardy to zone 5.
3. Wisteria (wisteria sinensis).
Chinese wisteria is the most common
plant found at garden retailers as it is
propagated from seed, which is fast
and easy.
Japanese wisteria is propagated from
cuttings and is a little bit tricky to start.
This is not your problem, I know,
but it explains why the Chinese type is
much less expensive and more widely
available.
Wisteria is a good option for a fast
growing twining vine where late
spring colour is desired.
You have seen pictures of wisteria
covering a pergola or arbour and
virtually dripping with masses of
flowers featuring long panicles of
multi petalled purple bloom. Chances
are these pictures are from California.
I still like wisteria for the gardener
who doesn’t mind pruning aggressively each year after it is established.
Pruning encourages flowering. Prefers
sun. Hardy to zone 5.
4. Virginia Creeper .
Someone reading this will want to
yell at me for recommending this vine
as it’s considered a weed by many
farmers who are forever pulling it out
of hedgerows.
However, it is native, fast growing,
reliably insect and disease free and if
you prune it aggressively you can train
it to do most anything that you want.
I have a one-meter length of a maple
branch in my shop that’s twisted like a
snake squeezed the life out of it.
I quiz visitors to guess how this
happened.
The answer: a Virginia creeper
strangled it while it was growing.
Two tough plants battling it out in
the garden. Hardy to zone 4.
5. Clematis and climbing roses.
I clump these together under the
same heading as I think that they
belong together in the garden.
Plant a Jackmanni purple clematis
with a Blaze climbing rose (or another
favourite variety of yours) and they
will bloom together for a stunning
effect. Both love the sun as much as
they love each other.
I think they were siblings in another
life. Both require a minimum of six
hours of sunshine to perform at their
best and both need support.
A trellis or pergola work well.
6.
Bigleaf
Winter
Creeper
(euonymus fortunei).
I had to add an evergreen vine to my
list. You read right.
This perennial beauty holds its
leaves over the winter, providing some
off-season interest where most other
vines retreat for up to six months.
I really enjoy the red/creamy white
fruit that hangs on this self clinging
vine in the fall through early spring
when some hungry migratory birds
make a meal of them.
The only problem that you may have
with it is euonymus scale, which can
be controlled nicely using dormant
oil during the summer months. It’s a
natural product that smothers the scale
insects without harming the vine.
The flowers are not worth writing
about but the many virtues of Bigleaf
Winter Creeper far outweigh its lack of
colour. Hardy to zone 4.
Plant some vines around your
property and enjoy the increased
shade, privacy, less road noise and
habitat for community birds.

Pitching key to provincial success
by Andrew Brethauer
[email protected]
With only one win in
their first eight games of the
season, the Lloydminster
Twins peewee AA team had
plenty to figure out over the
course of the season, turning
things around with an 18-4
record down the stretch
heading into provincials this
weekend in Lloydminster.
Nine other teams from
across the province will
come to the Border City for
the Baseball Saskatchewan
peewee AA Tier 1 provincial
tournament, with the Twins
finding themselves in a pool
against the Macklin Lakers
and Battlefords Beavers,
two teams the Twins have
defeated already this season,
and the Estevan Tornados
and Prince Alberta Royals,
unknown squads that Twins
head coach Dave Pero hasn’t
had eyes on yet this year.
And with those two unfamiliar teams being the Twins
first two opponents on
Friday, Pero may need to use
up some of his top pitchers
early in the tournament in
order secure wins, as only the
top two from each pool move
on to the playoff round.
“I think the strongest two
teams are going to be Prince
Albert and Macklin, and
we’ve proven we can play
with Macklin,” said Pero.
“Prince Alberta is a team I
know is going to be tough,
Macklin can hit, they got a
couple of kids who can really
mash the ball, so I got to
pitch kids against those two
teams that can throw hard.
“Basically with a five team
pool you can have one loss.
Someone is going to go 4-0,
someone is going to go 3-1.
You got to assume any more
than one loss and you’re
done.”
The challenge for Pero and
the Twins at the peewee level
Andrew Brethauer photo
The Lloydminster Twins peewee AA team will host the Tier 1 provincials this weekend at Legion
Park. Pitchers at the peewee level are held to a pitch count, so strategy will come into play
when sending players to the mound.
is that the pitchers are on
a strict pitch count. If they
throw over 30 pitches, they
need to rest for a day, while
over 45 pitches keeps them
off the mound for two days.
Eighty-five pitches would sit
them out for four days.
So Pero will have to decide
when to throw his top
pitchers on the mound who
can throw heat and when it’s
best to pull them out to leave
them some pitchers for later
in the tournament.
With Estevan being so
unknown, the Twins could
save one of their best
pitchers for the Prince Albert
game, or need to keep them
on the mound for the game
in order to gain a victory so
that the second game against
the Royals isn’t a do-or-die
situation.
A positive for the Twins,
however, is that every player
on the team is capable of
pitching, allowing players to
take the ball on the mound in
different situations based on
the Twins need to rest some
of their aces.
The provincial game then
becomes more of a defensive
battle, as hits will happen
and the game turns to a
battle of individuals.
“We are coming into shape,
we have seen a lot of growth
out of kids,” said Pero. “We
still make our errors, but we
are pretty good defensively.
We’re hit or miss with hitting.
Some games we hit real well.
With seven first year kids, if
we got someone throwing
real hard against us, they are
timid up there and not being
aggressive at the plate, but it
definitely has come along as
the season has gone on.”
It’s what makes tournament baseball like a game
of chess, as Pero said he set
his expectations at simply
getting to Sunday’s playoff
rounds, but getting there
may cost him his best
pitchers. Then the onus to
win switches to the hitters
and fielders, as by the final
game, every team is hurting
to keep a good pitcher on the
mound.
“There is a lot of strategy in
terms of the pitching. Do you
save guys for Sunday, but if
you save those guys are you
even going to get to Sunday,”
said Pero. “One philosophy
is, you play to win every
game, put out your best
pitcher. At least let’s get to
the semi-final finals and lets
pitch one of our other guys
and maybe they will be
successful.
“You don’t want to save
a kid and then, save him
for what, because you lose
games in the round robin and
you never get to Sunday.”
The tournament, which
will be hosted at Legion Park
in Lloydminster, will also see
Weyburn, Unity, Melville,
Swift Current and the Sask
Five Giants in the other pool.

Trent Kusch, Ty Plandowski and Kaiden Zacharias each played their final home game of the season with the Northwest Prairie Pirates, which was also their last
home game as members of the Lloydminster Minor Baseball Association.
Last game in

of guys that you will always
remember,” said Plandowski. “You
couldn’t ask for anything more out
of a recreational sport. It’s bittersweet. You’ll get those games you
are going to miss, but it all has to
come to an end. I’ll miss the boys,
you won’t get to experience this
again.”
It’s hard to say goodbye to
players that have come along on
the same journey throughout their
minor ball career, so the Pirates will
try to extend it as much as they can
this weekend when they look for a
chance to either go to nationals by
winning the provincial championship, or the Western Canadian tournament by being the runner-up,
something the team did last season.
But leaving their friends after
this season, win or lose, will still be
tough to deal with, considering the
players have spent every summer
together at the diamond for nearly
a decade.
“At the end of the year it’s hard
to say goodbye to the guys who
are leaving and never seeing them
again,” said Zacharias. “I’ve tried
not to think too much about it, just
focus on the game and worry about
going into provincials.”
When Trent Kusch, Ty Plandowski
and Kaiden Zacharias were asked how
long they have played baseball in Lloydminster, they each had to take a few
moments to think about their answer
and count the number of years.
Kusch led the group with 14 years
in the Lloydminster Minor Baseball
Association (LMBA), while Plandowski
and Zacharias had nine and eight
years each, wearing the Lloydminster
Twins uniform in their younger days
before putting on the Northwest Prairie
Pirates jersey and caps for the past three
seasons each at the midget AAA level.
And while they still have provincials
this weekend in Saskatoon as part of
the Saskatchewan Premier Baseball
League, the three players played their
final games in Lloydminster as part of
the LMBA on Saturday in two make up
games against the Saskatoon Cubs.
“I haven’t thought about it because
it kind of scares me a bit to think this
is my last home game of Lloydminster
minor ball,” said Kusch between the
double header with the Cubs.
“It’s been a great organization to grow
me as a baseball player. It’s an honour
to be a Pirate in Lloydminster.”
With 14 years of service, Kusch won
five straight provincial
championships starting
at the mosquito level
of ball, while Zacharias
won his first provincial
championship back with
his peewee AA Twins
team. Plandowski was a
bantam AAA champion
and went to nationals
and counts that as his
highest accomplishment
in baseball.
As third year players
with the Pirates, all three
have managed to play
together throughout their
Hardwood, laminate, carpet, tile, luxury vinyl plank, lino
baseball careers, and
and all types of natural stone. Installation available.

The Lloydminster Bobcats continue to add local
players to their roster for the upcoming season, as
the Bobcats announced Tuesday that Jaxan Kaluski
signed with the team.
Last year, Kaluski was part of the midget AAA
Bobcats team that won the Alberta Midget Hockey
League and went to the Telus Cup, the national
championship for midget hockey.
He reunites with his midget coach Travis
Clayton, who took over as head coach of the junior
A Bobcats back in June.
“Jaxan proved as the year went on that he could
score some big goals, especially at a high level,”
said Clayton.
“His experience playing at the Telus Cup and
being able to score there, means he will have the
confidence and skill set to continue to produce
offensively at the junior A level.”
With the midget Bobcats, Kaluski scored 14 goals
and 22 points in 32 games. But it was at the Telus
Cup where Kaluski got the spotlight, scoring six
goals in seven games, the second most of any
player in the tournament.
“He is a great two-way player who is responsible
in the defensive end,” said Clayton. “He is a quiet
leader who does everything the right way and
leads by example.”
Along with Kaluski, Kobe Walker, Tre Doyon
and Tristan Petrie all signed with the Bobcats back
and June and all played under Clayton on the
midget team last season.
On Monday, the Bobcats also made a trade with
the Whitecourt Wolverines, the team now coached
by former Bobcats coach Gord Thibodeau.
The deal saw defenceman Nick Quillan and
goaltender Pierce Diamond go to Whitecourt in
exchange for goaltender Josh Dechaine, forward
Cory Santoro and defenceman Jamieson Ree and
future considerations.

Xtreme moving in right direction
by Andrew Brethauer
[email protected]
When Fort Saskatchewan moved
up to the junior B Tier 1 conference in
the Rock Mountain Lacrosse League,
it left an opening for some team in
the junior B Tier 2 North Conference
to take their place.
The Lloydminster Xtreme felt they
had the team this year to take that top
spot, but two losses to the Lakeland
Heat in the semi-finals of the playoffs
eliminated the Xtreme in the same
round they were eliminated in a year
prior, keeping them once
again out of the championship picture.
They lost 8-7 in Game
1 on July 8 and barely
missed out on forcing
a Game 3 after an 11-10
overtime loss in Game 2.
Both games Lloydminster led in, but allowed
the Heat to come back
and move on to the
league final along with
the
Sherwood
Park
Titans from the North
Conference and the Old
Mavericks and Lethbridge Barracudas
Olds would end up
winning the provincial
title over Lethbridge.
“We could have played
better,” said Xtreme head
coach Graham Murray
after the Xtreme season
came to an end.
“We had a mental
thing against (Lakeland)
and
Vermilion.
We
really couldn’t play our
best lacrosse when we
needed it. The effort was
there, the guys definitely
wanted to be there, it just
didn’t go our way. It’s
definitely disappointing
that we didn’t meet our
goal. It was definitely
tough with how many
veterans we had graduating this year.”
Lloydminster started
the season off with
four straight victories
and lost only one of
their first eight games
of the season. That put
them at the top of the
North Conference, but a
difficult back end of the
schedule saw the Xtreme
lose three straight to the
Heat twice and Vermilion
Roar before finishing out
the season with three
victories.
They
missed
the
first round bye in the
playoffs, but got past
the Edmonton Warriors
in two games before
heading to Cold Lake for
the semi-final series.
Despite the playoff
elimination earlier than
they would have hoped,
Murray sees this past
season as another step in
the right direction. Lloydminster has made the
semi-finals the past two
seasons since Murray
took over in 2014, and
they are starting to see
more players commit to
the team throughout the
early months of summer.
“The program is definitely
improving,” said Murray. “This year
was a step in the right direction.
Commitment wise, I thought they
really stepped up their commitment
to the team and we didn’t have
any of the problems we had the
previous two years. We definitely are
growing into something here. We got
some great rookies coming up from
the midget Brutes team that will
hopefully fit right in to our system.”
Leaving the Xtreme are team
captain Braden Petersen, alternate
captains Brindin Russell and Skyler
Shynuk, goalie Tyvan Stewart, Ryan
Jarrett, Gage Lychak and Aaron
Winterhalt, all due to graduating.
It’s a big loss to see seven veterans
leave the team, but Murray is confidence that the next group can fill
in and take their spots, including
rookies Joshua Golem on offence
and Dalyn Loewen on defence, who
became a player Murray could rely
on.
Losing players, however, is part of
sports and with the players Murray
hopes to get from the Lloydminster
16073UC0
Border Brutes midget team and how
much parity is now in the North
Conference with Fort Saskatchewan
now up a level, the expectation is
that Lloydminster will be contention
for years to come and a championship isn’t too far away.
“It’s tough losing the guys we are
losing, but that is how she goes,” said
Murray.
“You got to restock every year. I
definitely like where our program is
heading. We will be a team that will
be at the top half of this league for
years to come.”

Lloydminster the foundation
by Andrew Brethauer
[email protected]
If you’re going to build a football
team to represent the North east
region of Alberta, the foundation of
that team will be made from Lloydminster players.
Fourteen of the 35 players on the
Zone 7 football team that competed
at the Alberta Summer Games in
Leduc this past weekend were from
the Border City, which included half
of the team eight captains in Garret
Hatchard, Ethan Mather, Dante
Tabacu and Domonick Caco.
“It’s good to see all the Lloydminster guys come out and represent
our town well,” said line backer
Garret Hatchard. “The fact that half
the captains are from Lloydminster
means a lot because it means we all
put in a lot of work and did the best
we could.”
Bonnyville was the next most
represented city on the team, with 12
players from the Voyageurs bantam
program, with the rest of the team
being made up of players from Fort
McMurray and one from Cold Lake.
It makes for an interesting experience when building a team, as the
rivalry between Lloydminster teams
and Bonnyville runs from peewee
through to the high school level.
It makes players forgive and forget
pretty quickly, as time to prepare for
the Summer Games was limited to
just six practices, each six hours in
length.
“We were competitors,” said Ethan
Mather.
“We fight really hard on the field
and then we have to be friends here.
We got to know each other and we
became friends then and got that
chemistry that a team needs.”
With Lloydminster having two
bantam teams, the Mustangs and
Chargers, and a deep football system
that also has two peewee teams, it’s
no surprise that Lloydminster players
generally make up the majority of
any Zone 7 team, as by the time they
reach the Summer Games, many of
the players have already played five
or more seasons of football.
But coming together with players
who used to be opponents on such
a short notice is still the biggest
challenge of any Zone 7 team,
as travel alone for practice is a
challenge between Lloydminster and
Fort McMurray players, as well as
different play books, formations and
player abilities.
“It takes a lot of effort to try and
learn everything,” said Hatchard.
“It’s kind of cool to be playing with
the guys instead of against them, as
you just get to know them better and
it’s a lot more fun that way.”
The Zone 7 team was expected to
do well at the Summer Games, but
fell in their opener to the host Black
Gold team (Zone 5) 28-6.
They would miss out on a medal
with a 22-6 loss to the Edmonton
based Zone 7 team before winning
their final game 63-0 against the Peace
Country team (Zone 8), finishing 1-2
and in seventh place.
Garret Hatchard (top) and Ethan Mather (bottom), both were named team captains for the Zone 7 Alberta Summer Games football team and competed for
the Lloydminster Chargers bantam football team last season.

Raised in Lloydminster and surrounding areas since early childhood, I have a great knowledge
of everything about Lloydminster and areas and all it has to offer. I have a great passion for
homes and take great pride in making sure I view every home that comes on the market. I
have built my own home while I was living in Halifax, NS for two years back in 1999. During
the 5 months of construction I was at that house every single day until we moved in. It was
great satisfaction of building our own home and decorating it to how we wanted. After a year
in our new home we got transferred back to Lloydminster. At the time we had no time to build
so purchased an existing home. After many renovations inside and out, I still own the same
house to this day, and still always finding more to update and personalize my way. Before I got
into Real Estate, I had my realtor at the time show me every home I might have been remotely
interested in, just in case I found that one I liked more. My realtor at the time was constantly
asking me "Why are you not into Real Estate yourself, then you can go look at all the houses you want?" He give me all the
information on how to get into the course and my first opportunity I had I took it. That was back in August of 2005 and I have never
looked back and have enjoyed my profession immensely ever since. The knowledge of helping my clients selling their existing
home or purchasing their first home and sometimes up to helping them a third time is the best satisfaction I could have. I have
two beautiful daughters who have grown into perfect women at the ages of 23 and 25. They are my pride and joy and family
means everything to me. They both live on their own in Lloydminster, and give me great reason to stay in this strong and fast
growing community. Hopefully one day I will be helping them to purchase their first home. So if you are needing someone with
dedication and honesty to sell your home or help find your dream home, please contact me by email or a phone call.

Is it smart to sell privately?
Contrary to what you may believe, I have no
problem with people marketing their property
privately.
If you have the skill and determination, go
hard—bless you!
However, there’re a number of good reasons
why, historically, 93 per cent of property in Canada
is sold or purchased utilizing the services of a
Realtor.
Knowledge of the market would likely be the
first one.
Realtors have access to years of property information which can be applied to the attributes of
the subject property in order to advise an owner
on what its current value should be.
As our team covers about a 5,000 sq-mile area
of both north west Saskatchewan and north east
Alberta, we actually carry membership in two real
estate boards specifically so we can “mine” actual
sales data to support our opinion of value.
Experience.
Personally I’ve represented more than 2,000
properties so far in my 13 year real estate career.
While every house, acreage, farm, or business is
unique—which I consider to be one of the highlights of my job—in order to be efficient, Realtors
develop systems that are applied to each category.
For example, our residential listing checklist
currently has 25 questions that I need to answer
before ever putting a property up for sale, plus
MIDWEST
MINUTE
by Vern McClelland
www.vernmcclelland.com
fourteen pages we complete to initiate a legal
contract and brokerage file.
Our buyer checklist is similar.
It’s not unusual for us to have more than a
hundred pages of information and notes to be
archived when a transaction is complete, not
counting digital files including photos, video,
satellite images, appraisal and inspection reports,
etc.
There are some Realtors who will post your
property on the MLS system for a reduced fee
and refer all client inquiries and showing requests
directly to you.
They will give you a lawn sign, maybe even
some phone or online support but very little else.
Commission is charged for handling the
paperwork only.
These mere postings require sellers to take a selfguided tour of the sales process including all the
responsibilities and associated risks.

Other agencies will sell you a kit for a flat fee in

Again, sellers have to deal with buyer,and
possibly their agent, directly.
The old saying in the legal world may apply
here—if you represent yourself in court, you have
a fool for a lawyer.
The Olympics are coming up and there isn’t an
athlete at that level who doesn’t have a coach beside
them to encourage, teach, and offer guidance.
I don’t see myself as a salesperson.
We assist people through transitions.
If you look for the primary reason for a property to
be available on the market, privately or otherwise,
there’s often some type of stressor involved.
Stress can be good; we can’t live without it, but
too much can also weaken us.
Emotion can make the strongest person vulnerable.
Buyers will sense distress and often try to take
advantage of it.
Realtors are human; we care about our clients
and their families.
We have a duty to be fair to everyone involved
in a transaction.
I take that commitment seriously.

KEEP IT
LOCAL
The application process for
retail liquor store permits in
the communities of Yorkton,
Melville, Lloydminster, Moose
Jaw and Kindersley began
Monday.
Successful proponents will
be selected through a Request
for Proposal (RFP) process. There is one opportunity
available in each of the five
communities.
“This is the second of four
rounds of RFPs to be released
as part of the transition to an
expanded private retail liquor
system,” minister responsible
for the Saskatchewan Liquor
and Gaming Authority, Don
McMorris, said. “The first round of RFPs
were released July 7 and
pertained to the opportunities
in Regina and Saskatoon.”
In November 2015, government announced changes
that will see an expanded
private liquor retail system in
Saskatchewan. This includes the conversion
of 40 existing government
liquor stores to private opportunities as well as the addition
of 11 new retail opportunities. Conversion of the Melfort
liquor store will take place in
2019 when its current lease
expires.
The RFP documents outline
details relating to criteria,
process, timelines and other
relevant information pertaining to obtaining a retail store
permit and can be found at
www.SaskTenders.ca. The successful proponents
must also meet the standard
terms required to obtain a
commercial liquor permit. Deadline to apply for the
Yorkton, Melville, Lloydminster, Moose Jaw and Kinder-
39th ANNUAL PRE-HARVEST
EQUIPMENT CONSIGNMENT

sley opportunities is August

Any questions about the
RFP requirements, process
or guidelines should be
submitted by email (only) to
[email protected].
The RFPs relating to the
remaining communities will
be announced publicly and
released in stages over the
coming weeks to ensure
timely and efficient processing of applications.

Simple ways to save on household costs
(NC) As a homeowner, there are many simple
ways to reduce monthly expenditures and
realize savings, and the easiest place to start is
with your monthly energy bill.
Here are a few changes you can make that
can have a lasting impact on your wallet and
the planet:
• Cool your house with a ceiling or electric
fan and open the windows at night.
Ceiling fans cost about one cent for two
hours of use, compared to 67 cents to a dollar
for central air.
Use your AC only when necessary and be
sure to turn it off when you’re going to be
away from home long periods of time.
• Invest in a programmable thermostat.
It will automatically adjust the temperature
in your house, saving you energy while you’re
away or sleeping.
• Use insulation with a high R-value.
Experts and professionals often use a stone
wool product called Roxul Comfortbatt, which
can be used to top up the insulation in your
attic.
Topping up insulation to a depth of 16 inches
(41 cm) or an R-value of 50 will help keep your
house cool in the warm weather and take the
stress off your air conditioning unit.
• Check the tightness of your refrigerator
seal by closing the door on a piece of paper.
If it’s held in place, the seal is still good, if
not, it’s time to replace the seal or fix the door ’s
alignment.
• Only do laundry or dishes when you have
full loads.
If you have smaller loads, make sure to use
the correct settings and if you only have a
couple of items, wait it out or wash them by
hand.
Also consider low-cost DIY projects such as
caulking around windows, adding weather
stripping to doors, installing low-flow shower
heads, putting aerators on faucets, and
switching to energy-efficient LED or compact
florescent light bulbs for even greater impact.

retirement. Jean was

Change is in the air. Adapt, Sagittarius. Resisting will
