Emo Fair packed with people having a ball
From l. Daelyn and Serena Teeple were joined by their
cousins, Norah and Carmen Meeks who came in from Dryden for the fair. They were sitting in the Grandstand waiting
for the parade to arrive.
Ed Kennedy, Zone 72 Commander, Vernon Thompson, Emo
Legion Branch #99 President, and Brian McCallum Zone 72
Deputy Commander were ready to take the salute from the
marching veterans as they entered the grand stand.

Photographers’ showcase
Following a Monarch Habitat
Workshop in Sioux Narrows,
many who attended that course
are now helping to save the
Monarchs. This one, found as a
miniscule egg (only the size of
a pin head) under the leaf of a
Milkweed plant, was first
raised as a caterpillar, the size
of this small letter ‘ i “. Over
the past month, that caterpillar
went through incredible transformations, until it’s emergence
here, as a butterfly! Only a few
seconds young, and still clinging to its’ chrysalis, it was born
as an ‘ADULT’ butterfly on
Aug. 7th! Fascinating! It soon
was feasting on nectar flowers,
to prepare for its’ long journey
south, to overwinter in the interior of Mexico. Lightweight,
and on paper-thin wings, this
Monarch will soon begin a
flight south, of over 2400
miles, with no adult butterfly to
guide it! Females born here in
2014, should later lay hundreds
of eggs in the spring of 2015,
when they begin to fly north
again….but only if Milkweed
can be found! Milkweed is an
absolute “MUST’ for all Monarchs; they won’t survive without it!

the fall fair has something for
everyone.
Congratulations to this year’s
featured family, the Tom and
Shirley Morrish family who
grew up with the annual fair
being a huge part of their lives.
Their involvement with the fair
took on many roles from exhibiting their livestock, garden
produce and baking to becoming involved as 4-H leaders and
volunteers. Their six children
also participated in the fair beginning back in the 1970’s and
carried on the tradition of
showing their 4-H calves,
steers and Galloway cattle.
Tom and Shirley put in countless hours every year setting up
the exhibition hall at the farm
progress building and help with
the arduous task of clean-up
after the event. Their dedication and love for kids and animals is evident and they both
are committed to continuing
their involvement “for as long
as time allows”.
Congratulations also to this
year’s Emo Fair royalty that
saw Kassidy LeDrew crowned
2014 Emo Fair Queen. First
Princess was Elizabeth Allan
and Joleigh Hayes was named
second princess. Mini-King
was Benjamin Latter and Reece
Wiersema was crowned MiniQueen.
To those who took home red
ribbons for their exhibits in the
farm progress building, well
done and to the 4-H members
who were awarded prizes for
their livestock, good job. To all
the winners in the Beef and
Dairy Cattle Show and the
Horse Show, great effort.

And another Emo Fair has
come and gone! It actually
makes me kind of sad. It always seems that once the Fair
is over, Fall arrives rather
quickly. What a great weekend we had. Despite the crazy
hot day on Friday (likely our
hottest day in 2014) – it was a
wonderful weekend. I managed to get my cattle there,
and made a few things for the
exhibition hall. I hope that I
make enough in prize $ to pay
my annual membership fee! I
am very proud of Maddie and
Marlee – they did such a great
job with their calves. It is
amazing how much they have
improved and how much more
confident they have become.
Marlee’s heifer knocked her
down twice and I was worried
she would be upset and quit
but she brushed herself off and
kept going. Marlee ended up
1st with her heifer and Maddie
2nd. Shane met Marlee in the
barn and said “gee that is too
bad your heifer wasn’t behaving” – she replied “that’s o.k.,
he liked mine best!” Charlie
and Levi (the twins from Dryden) did a great job showing
their calves – Charlie and
Levi. Levi did give Levi a run
for his money – but he hung
on tight despite his hat falling
right over his eyes.
The 4-H classes went well
and with the weather being a
bit cooler Saturday a.m. the
cattle behaved very well. We
had a wonderful group of
steers. History was made with
sisters Morgan and Jessica
Haw with Grand and Reserve
Champions followed by brothers Timothy and Leroy Rempel. Morgan and Jessica were
also our Grand and Reserve
Champion showmen as well.
A big thank you to all that
helped to make our 4-H Show
and Sale such a great success!
Special thanks to Telford Advent for stepping in on short
notice to sell our steers – we
certainly appreciated this.
The Rainy River Hereford
Association sold every last
ticket on their $500 beef package or $500 cash – first time in
a long time that happened.
The winner was a stock car
driver from Thunder Bay and
I will publish the name next
week. Guess the weight is always a popular event and this
year our orphan steer Dudley
was the candidate to guess the
weight on. Dudley is now a
year and half old but still nice
and quiet for people to be visiting throughout the Fair.
Dudley weighed 1070 lbs and
Eltjo Weirsema was the lucky
“guesser!” Dudley enjoyed
his weekend.
Often we have a cattle sale
the weekend following the
Emo Fair but this year we
don’t so it looks like we will
pack up our cattle and head off
to the Dryden Fair. Maddie
and Marlee are very excited to
display their heifer calves to
their Dryden Grandma and
Grandpa and cousins! So the
dragging isn’t over yet!
My students have only 2
weeks left at the station. This
makes me sad as well. Because of our late start it isn’t
looking good to having much
of the plots combined and in
this year. I have a whole lot of
work ahead of me and I will
likely have to find someone to
help!
The next cattle sale is September 6th – get in touch with
James Gibson if you have cattle or questions. James # is

to settle for second. Rea Memorial Defending champ
Christopher Leek finished
third and reclaimed the points
lead in the season standings. In
the Street Stocks Ron Westover held the high line over
Tylar Wilson for the majority
of the race, but Wilson did not
give up and was able to squeak
back to back wins at the Emo
Fair.
The 2014 Rea Memorial
Champions are Paul Veert in
the WISSOTA Midwest Modifieds, Justin Jones in the WISSOTA Modifieds, and Tylar
Wilson in the Emo Street
Stocks.
Congratulations!
Thank you to all the great volunteers, sponsors and fans for
their support and helping in a
great success at the Emo
Speedway! The Keith McNally Memorial and Season
Championship is this weekend.

Creativity showcased at Market Thursday on Scott Street
Priscilla Wright sells her hand sewn doll clothes and other
hand knit items at Market Thursday.
Judy Tucker shares her passion for nature at Market Thursday.
Crystal Starling stops by on her bike to check out the unique
items on display at Market Thursday.
Charleen Mallory creates interesting porcelain pieces and
jewellery for those in the market.
By: Teresa Hazel
There are still a couple of
weeks left in the summer season to check out the vendors at
Market Thursday on Scott
Street in Fort Frances who sell
their arts and crafts in front of
the Fort Frances Museum.
There are a variety of items
for sale that range from plants
and baking to jewellery and
hand knit doll clothes.
Priscilla Wright comes every
week with her 18” doll outfits
that are all hand sewn. She
also has knit blankets and
socks for sale. “I’ve sold a lot
this week”, reports Wright as
to the customers that stop by to
check out her stuff.
Judy Tucker is also there
selling her native flowering
perennials to promote pollination for Monarch butterflies
and bees.
“It’s my own stock”, notes
the passionate activist who
grows them on her own property in Watten Township. “The
Monarchs need milkweed to
live. They can’t use anything
else. If there is no milkweed,
they can’t lay eggs”.
Tucker reports that there is
much folklore about milkweed
that it is poisonous, which
causes gardeners to get rid of
it and, in turn, causes the decline of the Monarch butterfly
population.
She shares photos that she
has taken of the various stages
of the birth of the Monarch
butterfly that are beautiful.
Tucker has created an oasis for
the Monarch butterfly in her
own backyard.
“They come in every year.
The one’s here migrate to
Mexico. They don’t go much
further North than here”, she
adds.
The wildflowers that are in
full bloom in August on her
property provide a place of
solitude and meditation for
Tucker who also brings along
fresh-baked cinnamon buns
and a few crafts for sale.
Stanley Saunders has also
set-up a display at Market
Thursday of his handmade
beadwork celebrating his native culture. Hailing from
Mine Centre, Saunders reports
that his creations are a “winter’s work”. He also teaches
Results for 2nd Annual Splash and Dash
The Rainy Lake Triathlon
Club held their 2nd Annual
Splash and Dash competition
on Sunday at The Point, which
featured a 750 metre swim and
5 kilometre run for participants.
It was Dwayne Olson from
Winnipeg, Manitoba who took
top spot in the Adult Male category with a 12:13 swim time
and a 24:39 run time for an
overall finish time of 36:12.
Bill Michl of Fort Frances
came in second with a finish
time of 41:10.
The women’s division saw
eight competitors and a close
finish between the top three
racers. Hailey Beaudry was
first with a finish time of
36:59. (Note: Beaudry also
finished second overall coming in only 47 seconds after
Dwayne Olson). Penny McComb was second with her
time of 38:13; and Jillian
Gustafson placed third, coming in a minute and a half after
McComb at 39:37.
It was only a one second difference that decided first and
second place in the team division. Team Wave Runner (Jocelyn Mueller/Britt Green)
came in at 39:05, edging out
