The challenge is to accomplish that with minimum staff layoffs, and also without negatively impacting patient care, according to Dan Florizone, president and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the health region. Florizone said during a news conference at Saskatoon City Hospital on Wednesday, July 27 that the financial pressures facing the health region are not new. The SHR ended its last fiscal year with a $44 million deficit, which was offset by a $10 million cash injection by the province to reduce the final deficit to $35.7 million. Since December, 2015, the SHR has taken steps to trim $34 million from its expenses, including a reduction of 24 full-time equivalent positions in its administrative staff. Florizone said the health region’s goal is to operate on a balanced budget despite increasing population pressures taxing the capacity of its facilities. The SHR’s overall budget of $1.2 billion is largely based on funding from the provincial government. With declining revenues from oil and potash royalties expected to continue, that makes for challenging times in the immediate future, he acknowledged. “Our stewardship obligation obviously is whatever the policy and decision-makers set as our budget,” said Florizone. “And for us to manage based on that budget. There are tough decisions at every level.” Florizone said details of the current fiscal year’s budget will be released in mid-September following a meeting of the SHR board. In the meantime, the health region is looking at “redeploying” financial and staff resources toward front-line care. “Our target is to balance the budget and we have significant challenges to be able to attain that very important goal,” said Florizone. “We intend to sit down with our union partners and see if we can collaborate on the redeployment of staff; so that where we have a vacancy we can pull to that vacancy.” Florizone said the SHR is immediately implementing a temporary two month external hiring freeze, except for “hard-torecruit” positions related directly to patient care. With 14,000 employees, the SHR is one of the largest corporations in the province. Florizone said the health region is trying to avoid layoffs by encouraging “voluntary separation” and early retirement of out-of-scope staff. Staff reductions have so far been largely accomplished through attrition rather than layoffs, he noted. “What we have accomplished today is due to attrition and the natural turnover of staff,” Weekend Weather FRIDAY SATURDAY SUNDAY High 25 Low 13 High 26 Low 13 High 26 Low 14 NORMALS High 25 Low 13 Fridge News A listing of upcoming events sponsored by the Town of Rosthern To place your organization’s ad, contact the Valley News at [email protected] July 8 - August 7 The Moonlight Sonata of Beethoven Blatz Station Arts Centre Summer Theatre production Inside This Issue Opinions . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 Classifieds . . . . . . . . . . . . .11 Churches . . . . . . . . . . . . . 13 Business Directory . . . . . 14 he said. The SHR is looking to redirect $1.9 million from administrative salaries to front-line care in longterm health care facilities. The initiative is part of a province-wide directive from the government which will see a total reallocation of $7.5 million across all health regions for this purpose. “The premier committed $7.5 million to be taken from administration and redeployed into frontline long-term care for seniors and disabled adults,” confirmed Florizone. “Our share of that is $1.9 million and it will be allocated to facilities operated directly by the SHR and also to our affiliates; those nursing homes and care institutions that we contract with.” SHR Finance VicePresident Nilesh Kavia said the health region is also exploring ways of increasing revenue. The bulk of that will come from parking, he said. “It’s not just our parking rates, but also the overall efficiency of the parking system,” said Kavia. “Our parking infrastructure costs us money, so how do we make sure we’re maximizing the net profit from those revenues? “There is also the potential for charging for cost recovery, such as the area of preferred accommodation.” Florizone said the health region is not looking at charging for medical procedures at this time, but noted that “everything is on the table,” when it comes to areas not covered by the Canada Health Act, as long as it doesn’t negatively affect patient care. “Ability to pay should never be the driver for the system,” said Florizone. “Our priority is not just money,” he said. “That is one factor. We have set out a strategic direction that really lays out the region’s priorities. “Sustainability is one of those pillars. We also want TERRY PUGH | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE Saskatoon Health Region (SHR) Finance Vice-President Nilesh Kavia (left) and SHR President and CEO Dan Florizone at a news conference on Wednesday, July 27 to move forward with the Children’s Hospital; to be on time and on target with that project. Another pillar is our patient-first management system. “Our ultimate aim is to improve care, improve service and reduce costs. The challenge is in working through the details.” Crops progressing well: Sask Ag report Good progress was made with haying this past week. Livestock producers have 50 percent of the hay crop baled or put into silage and another 20 percent cut and ready for baling, according to Saskatchewan Agriculture’s Weekly Crop Report. The five year average (2011-2015) is 55 percent baled or put into silage. Hay quality is rated as five percent excellent, 70 percent good, 24 percent fair and one percent poor. Hay is slow to dry in the swath due to rain and high humidity. Crops are generally in good condition. Sixtytwo percent of spring wheat, winter wheat, flax and canola are in good condition. Wet conditions across much of the lentilproducing area has affected quality. Lentils are rated as 15 percent excellent, 47 percent good, 26 percent fair, 10 percent poor and two percent very poor. Peas are rated as 30 percent excellent, 52 percent good, 16 percent fair and two percent poor. Most areas of the province received rain during the past week, with the heaviest showers dropping between 50 and 100 mm of precipitation. There were reports of 200 mm of rain in the Elfros region. Heavy rain over the past several weeks has caused crops to lodge, and they remain under flooding stress in some areas. Lentils and peas in many areas of the province are suffering from too much moisture. Diseases and hail have also caused crop damage. Provincially, crop land topsoil moisture is rated as 15 percent surplus, 80 percent adequate and five percent short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as nine percent surplus, 83 percent adequate and eight percent short. Harvesting of winter wheat, peas and lentils in some areas is expected to start in the coming week. Farmers are busy haying and getting ready for harvest.

The new greens are attracting more people. The grass greens opened to the public on July 1 and golfers are enjoying playing on them, according to Valley Regional Park representative Trevor Hiebert. “They’re younger greens yet, we were worried maybe that they wouldn’t stand up right away, but they’ve been really good. They’re healthy and it’s been actually pretty busy,” Hiebert said. “Weekends are very busy already… and everything is going good.” Hiebert is also happy with the overall renovations they’ve done to the course and are receiving good feedback. “The greens and fairways are actually in excellent shape, we’re still working on things like some more tee boxes and …those sort of things,” he said. Another feature that is new at the golf course is some waterways. “It’s not a very long course but it makes it a little more challenging anyway,” Hiebert said. One of the main reasons why they decided to renovate the greens is to attract more golfers and stay competitive with other golf courses. That being said, they had to raise the price of golf. The cost is $20 to golf nine holes and $30 for an extra nine holes, as the course is only nine holes. Even with the raised prices they do expect an increase of people because of the renovations that were done. “We’re very, very, competitive that way (price wise), and it’s a very mature course. The trees and fairways are very mature and the grass on the greens was the logical next step,” Hiebert said. Since the new grass greens have been open to the public he has definitely seen an increase of golfers. “It’s a night and day difference. It’s five times more traffic instantly, so it definitely makes a huge difference,” Hiebert said. In the future Hiebert hopes to host more club tournaments as they are only planning one for this year. “We’re probably going to do just one tournament here this year and then next year…we plan to do a lot more things like weekly things,” Hiebert said. They started this golf season off with a mens/ ladies night on Thursday evenings. The night consists of a round of golf, which includes a meal special for golfers. That evening has been popular with golfers so far and the golf course will continue to do that. Hiebert added that they are receiving compliments regarding the course about the brand new greens. At first, with the greens being new, Hiebert said that they kept them long and were slowly cutting them. So the greens were slow at first. But now they are starting to cut them more and the greens are getting faster, which is great for the golfers. The new grass greens, make a better golfing experience compared to Photo by Mackenzie Hientz Lorena Rees putts the ball on the new grass greens of hole 2 at the Pineridge Golf Course in Waldheim. Rees enjoyed golfing at the course on Saturday, July 30. the sand greens, which is what the Pineridge Golf Course wants. The renovations attract new golfers and encourage the regular golfers to golf more. The golf course won’t have an official grand opening of the new greens until next spring; there are minor upkeepings that the golf course wants to perfect including tee boxes and cart paths. “All of the tee boxes are in but (we will) build some further back ones and some higher raised ones, stuff like that. And upgrade some cart paths …so that it’s perfect for the grand opening,” Hiebert said. Also with the food service at the golf course, Hiebert mentioned that each night there are different meal specials. That initiative helps bring people in and the golf course is licensed too, as they’ve been for a couple of years, Hiebert added. Overall, the renovations to the golf course have been received well, and it does make the golf course that much better, and more attractive for people wanting to use it on a regular basis.

They were everywhere. But it can’t be! We just started summer! But I recalled the date and realized with anguish that summer was exactly half over. I wish I could say I sighed like a grown up and got on with my shopping trip but what really happened is I mentally threw myself down on the ground to have a little temper tantrum. In my head, I was stomping my foot and saying bad words in a bid to make summer longer. It didn’t work. So when I gathered myself back up (mentally speaking, of course, because I didn’t really throw myself down on the floor of Walmart no matter how much I wanted to) I made an even bigger commitment to enjoy every single last minute of summer that I possibly could. Naturally, we as humans tend to plan ahead which causes us to live days, weeks and sometimes months in advance. We don’t want to be stuck rushing around last minute so even though I detest seeing those back to school signs in July, this is the time people are starting to go through the lists, label everything and make sure they are ready for the first day of school. This is all fine and dandy but this is your official reminder that amid all the planning, to still let summer be summer for a little bit longer. Planning ahead is wonderful and keeps us organized and sane but it is so important to live in the moment that is happening right now. Give your full attention to that marshmallow roast, turn your face up to the sunshine on that evening walk, jump into the pool a few more times and soak up as much natural vitamin D as you can before we all have to get back to the grind of routines, schedules and chilly weather. Living in the now is a valuable skill you will appreciate no matter the situation. Enjoy a couple more icy beverages on the patio before the order of the day is hot coffee grasped with mittened fingers, frosty breath blowing on the steam rising from your to-go cup. One more month of summer before the first day of school and I intend to dodge the back to school signs for a bit longer yet! HAVE A NEWS TIP?

Blue-green algae blooms are a regular occurrence in some parts of Saskatchewan during warm summer temperatures. Typically, blue-green algae blooms form in shallow, slow moving water. These blooms can last around three weeks and move around water bodies as wind and wave action dictates. Over the last number of years, high flows and flooding experienced in a number of areas across the province, contributed more nutrients to water bodies which, combined with warm weather, assist the formation of blue-green algae blooms. Blue-green algae blooms often give the water a shimmering, foamy appearance with bluegreen, bright blue, grey or tan colouration. Recent warm temperatures in Saskatchewan may result in the quick formation of algae blooms. Direct contact or unintended consumption of algae-contaminated water can cause red skin, sore throat, cramps, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. In addition, caution should be taken when considering the consumption of fish or shellfish caught in areas of a water body where a bloom exists; the internal organs of the fish should not be eaten.

The $60.6 million contract for the two designbuild projects has been awarded to Peter Kiewit Infrastructure Co. (PKIC). The announcement was made jointly by Heppner, who is also the MLA for Martensville-Warman constituency, and federal Minister of Public Safety Ralph Goodale, on Friday, July 29 at Martensville City Hall. “The overpasses will improve safety in Warman and Martensville, two of the fastest growing communities in Saskatchewan,” said Heppner. “I’m extremely pleased that Saskatchewan companies will be playing a major role in the design and construction of the new Nancy Heppner overpasses.” Heppner noted that PKIC was one of three companies to bid on the project. Its bid was chosen in large part because it had the greatest concentration of Saskatchewan partners in its proposal. The procurement process was transparent and involved a Request for Qualifications followed by a separate Request for Proposals, as well as a rigorous evaluation. She said while the new interchanges will help improve the efficiency Spend more time earning income and less time trying to remember your online password to those sites full of scams and junk of the provincial transportation system, the biggest benefit will be improved safety. “Once built, these overpasses will contribute to traffic safety,” said Heppner. “They will improve the lives of people living and working in these communities and this region.” She noted that roughly 14,000 vehicles per day use Highway 12 at Martensville, and the new interchange will disperse traffic along Main Street and Centennial Drive in Martensville, thereby reducing congestion and providing safer access to current and future developments in the city. In Warman, the highway overpass at the junction with Highway 305 will offer a safe route in and out of the community while also providing for future road network expansion. Martensville Mayor Kent Muench said the residents of both Martensville and Warman are looking forward to the completion of the projects. “As a parent of two new Kent Muench drivers, I have to say this is a very exciting day,” said Muench. “This is a big project for our communities.” Heppner said while negotiations are still proceeding with some landowners, primarily in the Warman area, the timeline for the overall project is set. is some “There expropriation involved, which is typical with Ministry of Highways projects of this size,” said Heppner. “But that expropriation allows us to have access to the land and also allows us further time to go into mediation and further negotiation with landowners.” PKIC Senior VicePresident Ryan Tones said the design-build process for major infrastructure projects like this is “challenging,” because the bid is based on a very preliminary stage of development. But, he added, the company has been in business since 1960 and has completed a number of projects in the province including the Nipawin dam and refurbishing the University Bridge in Saskatoon. Tones said the project will create 50 local job opportunities, as well as spinoffs through procurement contractors with suppliers. The partners on the project include: Westridge Construction Ltd of Regina, KPCL Dirt Movers of Estevan, Clifton Associates of Regina, McElhanney Consulting Services and Great Northern Engineering Consultants. Goodale said the federal government is committed to working with provinces to fund much needed infrastructure projects across the country. The objective is two-fold, he said. “First, there is a benefit with immediate impact in terms of creating good jobs and the associated economic activity that comes from construction,” said Goodale. “For every dollar invested, there is a multiplier effect of 1.5. So investing in infrastructure is the single most cost-effective way for the government of Canada to help drive greater growth and more jobs. “The second benefit is that infrastructure like roads, bridges, water and sewer facilities, all lay the foundation for more economic growth, greater productivity and prosperity.” The federal government is investing $125 billion in new infrastructure over the next 10 years, said Goodale.

The weather was fantastic, here anyway! Some families went camping, some spent time at the local pool, some were haying, and some of us just enjoyed the outdoors, with the warm sunny days. I want to wish anyone who is ill or had surgery or just not up to par, the very best and to get on the mend soon. Have others noticed the purple martins are not their usual self? I thought they were already gone for the winter, as I had not heard or seen them in awhile and all of a sudden they were back, maybe they are gathering to head out? I sure hope not yet, that would be way too early. Hopefully they were just scouting out a better place to feed on the mosquito population. 9 Congratulations to Team Saskatchewan for winning the gold medal in Football Canada’s Women’s Nationals. The playoffs were held from Thursday to Sunday (July 28 to 31) at Mosaic (Taylor Field) in Regina. Saskatchewan began the playoffs by defeating New Brunswick by a score of 58-0. That advanced them to the gold medal game against Team Quebec where the final score was 34-22 for Team Saskatchewan. Right, two members of the Saskatoon Valkyries who were part of Team Saskatchewan were Alyssa Funk from Hague who played offensive line and Michelle Duchesne, formerly from Duck Lake, who is the team manager, showing off their gold medals.

Neil and I went to the play, The Moonlight Sonata of Beethoven Blatz, at the Station Arts Centre in Rosthern on Saturday, July 30. We got quite a lot of chuckles out of it and it was definitely for a mature audience. While there we also enjoyed viewing Leah Dorion’s Art work as well as the Postcard Art that was on display. On Sunday we drove into Saskatoon and met with our son Adrian and his wife Shawna. We went to Diefenbaker Park where we took in the Ribfest. Even though it rained there were a lot of people enjoying the event. Five vendors took part in the competition and the ribs were all good.

By Kate Kading Rosthern Fire and Rescue were called out around 9:30 am Friday, July 29 to a fire four miles east of Rosthern on Highway 312. An RV was pulled off the highway near private property and was completely engulfed in flames. Deputy Chief Brent Hein says their response time was fast but the fire was almost faster. “Four of us were on scene by 9:38 am and from 9:40 am to 10:35 am we were actively fighting live, hard fire. It was already fully engulfed. Think about what you pack into your RV for a couple weeks of camping. We were dealing with all sorts of different materials there.” The rear engine, older model motor home had been travelling on Highway 312 when another motorist passed it and frantically motioned for the lone driver to pull over. The driver of the RV had not realized his unit was on fire. Thankfully, the driver was able to pull over and escaped without injury. Deputy Chief Hein says Rosthern Fire and Rescue worked on scene until about 2:00 pm with no further threat to lives or property. “When the fire was out we were still doing scene control Photo courtesy Rosthern Fire and Rescue and clean up but had a flare up around noon. There were some rubber components still burning underneath but we put those out pretty fast. We worked well together and it really helps to have a good working relationship with Harv’s Towing. We appreciate his expertise in situations like this.” Along with Deputy Chief Hein, Graham Klassen, Cody Epp and Captain Ross Deptuch attended from Rosthern Fire and Rescue and Harv Britton from Harv’s Autobody Ltd. and Towing towed the unit during the clean-up. Both Deputy Chief Hein and Captain Deptuch agreed that the first hour Beat the Fall Rush and Save 10% off your Window & Door Package Contact us for an In-House Estimate Sale ends August 5, 2016 ZaksBuilding.com of the fire was plain brute work but their small number in no way hindered their ability to control the scene and put the fire out safely and efficiently. Captain Deptuch says each member knows their job well. “For the manpower we had, the guys did a fabulous job. It’s a house on wheels; there was so much to deal with. The fire was approaching the ditch; the ditch was green but we still had to get that out and make sure it wasn’t going to spread to the nearby trees. The main thing is that everyone made it out safely.” IAGL B DE THE $8.00/wk for the first 25 words 35¢/wk per word thereafter + GST Run your word ad 3 consecutive weeks in the Valley News with no changes get the 4th week FREE!

We went to church gatherings and got ready for a visit from my sister Kathy Watson and George Watson, Mary Johnston of Calgary and my nephew Daryle and his daughter Christine Johnston of Calgary. After we finished at church we all went to the Valley Regional Park where my cousin Richard and Jackie Bartel of Kelowna were camping. We had a wiener roast and visited. Elaine and Bill Adams also came. On Saturday, July 30 we went to church where we celebrated by 80th birthday and our 39th wedding anniversary. There was a program and pictures were shown. We had a good supper and birthday and anniversary cake. About 56 people came to celebrate. They came from Saskatoon, Rosthern, Waldheim Kelowna, Calgary, Clavet, Hepburn, Langham, Denzel, Big River and Hundred Mile House. It was nice to see you all and that you could celebrate with us. Bill and Elaine Adams worshipped with us on Sunday. They had lunch with us and stayed to visit in the afternoon. Also worshipping with us on Sunday were a couple from Horse Lake Mennonite Church. It was nice you could worship with us. We can seek things from God who gives us courage to carry on. Without God we wouldn’t get a blessing. Rural food map in sight for Osler region By Hilary Klassen [email protected] A growing global movement to eat local and be informed on food sourcing has brought some like-minded people together to facilitate that movement in the Osler area. The Saskatoon Food Council, the town of Osler and the RM of Corman Park are partnering in a project that will put Osler area food producers in the spotlight and on the map. Not just any map, but a local food map. Gord Enns, executive director of the Saskatoon Food Council says more people are looking to make a stronger rural and urban connection. “The idea of a food map came out of an interest in promoting the Osler area as a place where there’s a lot of local food production, a lot of people involved in growing things for a local market.” The group is in the process of developing a resource that would showcase what’s in the area and appeal to those looking to make that rural-urban connection. All partners agreed that a mapping exercise was a positive first step in developing a ‘local food node.’ A food map would facilitate greater local commerce in the area, draw people from urban areas, and be a source for tourism. Enns said Tourism Saskatoon is interested in promoting this venture as an option for people looking to experience something outside of Saskatoon. Food is both pleasure and nourishment. Anyone who’s done a food or wine tour knows the power of a few hours’ immersion in the local food culture. If a convention is in the city, part of their programming could include a venture outside the city for a food tour, as a way of promoting the Osler area as a tourist draw. Currently the initiative has eight producers who want to participate, and they’re looking for more. Ens said the group reflects a good diversity of products, from egg producers to a start-up orchard with haskap, Saskatoon berries and strawberries, to a greenhouse that produces year-round, and meat and vegetable producers. They’re hoping to add a local honey producer to the map as well. Enns said he wouldn’t be surprised to see a microbrewery join the tour down the road. While some individual producers already have a recognizable brand, the partners hope to develop a brand with a recognizable logo that represents all the producers. The project benefited from the assistance of a couple of University of Saskatchewan planning student placements. Rebecca Row, director of planning for the RM of Corman Park is a Registered Professional Planner and arranged for Luke Brossart and Andrew Simonson to complete their practicum through the RM as a requirement for graduation. The students created lists and conducted email and personal interviews of individual producers to gauge interest in the food map. The group expects to publish the food map in fall at a launch event to be determined. Enns said there’s a real opportunity for people to diversify their farms through an initiative like this as well. “Producers are interested in growing something for the local market. There’s a real hunger for it. And people in the city really want that connection to where their food is grown.” For the Saskatoon Food Council, this initiative assists their goal of helping people build that connection to food, and of revitalizing food culture and food economy, Enns added. “Know your food and know your farmer,” is what drives this project from his perspective.

Whenever I tell people about my summer holiday plans, to join my parents in their RV and drive north, I get a variety of responses. Some are excited, some are intrigued, and some are simply mystified. They’re mystified because they can’t comprehend why it is that I would choose to spend three weeks of holiday time in such close quarters with my parents. To them it would seem that a nuclear meltdown was inevitable, and admittedly, it could very well be a recipe for disaster. But I take comfort in knowing that we are not the first or only family that’s lived in tight quarters before, disagreed and survived. The book of Luke makes mention that the disciples argued, a couple times. And to be frank, I’m not that surprised. Consider for a moment their personalities, James and John, also known as the sons of thunder, they probably didn’t get that name by chance, and juxtapose that with reflective John. Jesus included Simon the zealot, who was not shy about his political leanings and Matthew the tax collector in his inner circle. With a group like this it didn’t take very long for disunity and differences to erupt into disagreements and conflict, as they argued with each other, ‘which are the greatest among us’. And this has been the case ever since the church was conceived. The disciples didn’t get along, the early church didn’t get along, the Pauline church plants had their own problems, and so on and so on, but, perhaps, maybe even in spite of us, God’s church continues on. In our world that often divides, categorizes, classifies, and separates, I think Jesus’ lessons to the disciples are important for us to hear over and over again. His words in Luke 9 turn around our common thinking. Jesus reminds, that if they’re not against us then they’re with us. And this is the thing to remember, that in the Church, like in a family, we’re all in this together, aren’t we? We are all a part of God’s family, we’re all apart of the Body of Christ.

The green of the grass and leaves on the trees, plus the colour of all the beautiful flowers, make for a very pleasant setting. That is why the following couples chose their respective dates. Saturday, July 9, was a very special day for Randi and Travis Fehr. They chose that day to exchange marriage vows and begin their new life as a married couple. The Willows in Saskatoon provided a beautiful setting for the outdoor ceremony, with the wedding banquet taking place in the dining hall. They are now residing in Hague. Randi is the daughter of Roy and Diane Fehr, while Travis’ parents are Wayne and Valora Fehr, all from Hague. Congratulations also go out to Jessica, daughter of Frank and Val Unger, on her marriage to Chad Watts on Saturday, July 16. Chad hails from British Columbia. The Neuanlage Mennonite Church was their choice of venue for the ceremony and wedding meal. Jessica and Chad are residing in Warman. Michael Derksen, son of Ken and Patti, married his sweetheart on Saturday, July 30. The bride elect was Megan Ouilette. They chose to do so at the beautiful Elkridge Resort, just outside of Waskesiu. They will be residing in Hague. Congratulations to each of these couples. May you experience many years of happiness as husband and wife. We also have a number of deaths to report. On Friday, July 8 a former Hague resident, Ann Wudrich passed on. She is survived by husband Leonard; her adult children; numerous grandchildren, greatgrandchildren, and several siblings. A memorial service will be held at St. Martin’s United Church, Saskatoon, on Saturday, August 27. Ann reached the age of 73. Condolences go out to Justina and Dave Derksen and family on the passing of brother- in-law John Bartsch. At the age of nearly 98, John died on Thursday, July 21. He is survived by his wife of 72 years, Helena, sons Don (Luella), Reg (Jenny) and daughter Irene (Gordon) Greenley, 10 grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. The Funeral Service was held at Bethany Manor on Monday, July 25, followed by interment in the Hague Cemetery. Our community was also saddened to hear about the passing of Edna Wagner on Saturday, July 23. She, along with her late husband Dave, lived on a farm west of Hague for many years, where they raised a family of four children. Interment will take place at a later date. We want to remember the family of Pete Zacharias who passed away on Sunday, July 24. He is survived by his wife of 60 years, Isabel (Wagner), two sons and one daughter, grandchildren and several siblings. Pete and Isabel both grew up in the Hague area, where Pete is still well known for his years playing Saskatoon Senior Men’s Fastball League. He received many awards for his contribution and was inducted into the Saskatoon Sports Hall of Fame in 1987. A celebration of his life was held at Augustana Lutheran Church in Saskatoon on Thursday, July 28. Get well wishes are extended to those feeling under the weather. Hot temperatures do not keep illness away. We think especially of those having spent time in the hospital. Tena Baun is recovering at home; Zachary Foth, having spent several weeks in hospital undergoing numerous tests and treatments, leading up to surgery; as well as Bertha Thiessen, still in Rosthern Hospital. Best wishes to all of you. May better health come your way soon. Residents of Hague may have noticed numerous trucks loading water at the town filling station. Not only are they local farmers, but also companies hauling to facilities depending on water services from Prince Albert. As news broadcasts have informed the public, their water supply from the North Saskatchewan River has been compromised by an oil spill. This mishap has affected many Saskatchewan residents. Please help out if you can. Our farmer friends are looking for rain to keep the crops from maturing too quickly. At the present, crops and gardens are looking pretty lush. Hopefully, Mother Nature will help keep them that way. Enjoy the great weather and have a good week. 16 THE SASKATCHEWAN VALLEY NEWS • Thursday, August 4, 2016 canada west harvest centre www.cawhc.com 0% or 1 year warranty on Selected Models featured product of the month 2012 John deere 9510r 3400 hrs 4wd pwr shift, pto, duals stk #113a $ 159,000 $ 600 hrs duals, chopper, grainloss monitor, stk # n026c 2012 Brent graIn cart $ 69,000 stk# e007a $ 60,000 139,000 $ 2143 hrs duals stk # n060e $ 249,000 985 hrs duals, 2016 pu head stk# n059c 189,000 $ 2008 case Ih afX 8010 1568 hrs 2016 pu head stk# n072c 189,000 $ 982 hrs hp feederhouse, auto contour, duals, stk# n047a $ 270,000 2004 case Ih 2388 2011 case Ih 7120 Jd640 fLeXdraper with transport and aws air reels stk# m018a 285,000 2012 Jd s690 1413 hrs duals, pwr tailboard, pickup stk# n162c&d $ 299,000 2012 chaLLenger 560c 2011 cLaas LeXIon 750 2013 cLaas LeXIon 780tt 2011 cLaas LeXIon 760tt 2006 cLaas LeXIon 570r 1258 hrs duals stk # n082c 2005 cLaas LeXIon 590r 2691 hrs new concaves & rubbars, pickup $ 90,000 2008 new hoLLand cr9070 1483 hrs duals, pu head stk# n061c 198,000 $ $ cruise pilot, cemos, auto steer, auto grease, dynamic cooling, p516 pickup head, stk# n152a 495,000 2011 case Ih 9120 1040 hrs 3016 pu head stk# n062c $ 259,000 1018 hrs p514 pu head stk # n081a $ 359,000 2007 case Ih magnum 275 3858 hrs duals, excellent condition stk# n032c 129,000 $ 2006 new hoLLand cr970 2013 John deere s680 2083 hrs duals stk# n106f 120,000 $ 710 hrs auto steer, power guard warranty, stk# n182 $ 349,000 8 Industrial dr. w. emerald park, sK 203-60th st. e. saskatoon, sK 2747 north service rd. w. swift current, sK 306.525.2300 306.978.2300 306.778.2300
