The results have been tabulated and after a Watrous town council
meeting, the green light was given to pursue a gym and workout facility for residents of the community and surrounding area.
Watrous recreation director Colin Peet met with council last week
to outline the statistics of the survey and from that, got the go ahead
to move on to the next step. While Peet said there is still a long ways
to go to get a facility going, “I do have the green light to chase a facility, to chase equipment and to actually go ahead.
“I went through the most popular answers from each question and
said the interest is there.”

With snow on the ground and
the calendar hitting late November, the Watrous and District
Food Bank is preparing for its
Christmas hamper program.
People wishing to provide items
or monetary donations and those
wanting to receive a hamper have
a few weeks to do so.
Chair of the food bank Darren
Holland said nobody is turned
down but the food bank needs
those interested in receiving a
hamper to fill out a form to help
out volunteers with filling hampers.
“We would like to help as many
people as possible this year,” said
Holland. “If there is a family or
someone you know who would
like to receive a hamper, let us
know and we can get in contact
with them.”

Well folks, November has been a big
hullabaloo of “we”. I mean, I do not even
know where to start, but I am sure you
get the hint of what I am about to get at.
Let me start by saying Saskatchewan has
been flooded with a positive way of inspiration! I have even started singing in
the shower again, so I am taking it as a
good sign.
Let us break it down by starting off
with a big Wildcat congrats to the boy’s
senior football team, who came in first,
proud and strong in their provincial game!
Even against the chill of Jack Frost’s fury,
they came through with a mind blowing
game. Seriously, get these guys a statue
in their honour, it was amazing! Then we
have our Winston ladies. The senior girls
volleyball team came with a good spike
into first with their own provincial win,
taking names and games! It was a great
weekend, I think Winston’s name is wellknown, if I do say so myself.

Now I know what you are thinking,

I am the reporter. I am here to tell you.
At CUC in Saskatoon, We Day was held
for the second year in a row with Shawn
Desman as the host and special guests like
Magic Johnson, Bob Marley’s daughter
and Martin Luther King III. This was an
event like no other, with lights, music and
most of all a feeling of change in the air.
They send a straight forward message to
the youth of today . . . we are the change
and only we can make it happen. I was
lucky enough to participate and can I

indescribable - one of the things I cannot

Opposition NDP calls for more EAs
November 25, 2013
As the number of people moving to Saskatchewan continues to increase, the provincial opposition has raised
issues that the lack of educational assistants in school divisions is a cause for concern. However, the government
has shown an increase in numbers from a few years ago.
Communications manager for Horizon School Division
Ken Sogge said the role of an educational assistant (EA)
is to support student learning and assist in establishing
a healthy learning environment so that all children can
achieve their potential. Individual EA roles vary depending on the age and diversity of the needs of the student.
Education critic for the NDP Trent Wotherspoon said,
“We have been very concerned by the elimination and cuts
of hundreds of educational assistants by this government.
We saw that over a period of a few years and we continue to
speak up and hold government to account for these cuts.”
Wotherspoon said many classrooms across Saskatchewan are not getting the supports required. “This is occurring at a time where population is in fact growing in
many school divisions and the cuts to educational assistants quite simply deprive all students with the attention
and support they need in the classroom.”
The MLA said it does not make sense to see EAs cut,
which has a direct impact towards students. “We are calling on government to restore the important role of the educational assistants in classrooms across our province.”
Education Minister Don Morgan said, “It’s important
to understand that the needs of classrooms and the needs
of individual students fluctuate from year to year, which
is why there is a variance in staffing numbers annually
and historically.”
Morgan said EAs play an important role in supporting
student learning and according to the latest data available, there were 3,566 EAs employed in 2012-‘13, which is
an increase over the 2007-‘08 levels.
“School divisions have asked for increased funding
to help meet classroom needs and our government has
responded by providing an over 23 per cent increase in
school operating funding in the past six years.”
As of Sept. 30, Sogge said there were 164 EAs employed
either full time or part time in the division. In 2012, that
number was 165 and in 2011 it was 162.
“There is no set criteria determining the maximum
or minimum number of EAs that can be working in our
division or our schools. The Horizon board of education
bases the funding allocation for EAs on the intensive
needs of our students.”
Milton & Liz Kerpan, Watson, SK
In Horizon, Sogge said the division’s first principle for
action is ‘success for all students’. “The Horizon board
of education is committed to ensuring that every student
is provided the best possible opportunity to succeed. As
such, appropriate staffing are maintained across the division to meet the needs of all students.”
Morgan said, “School divisions have the legislative
authority to decide their staffing complement; there is
no direction or guidance from government on how to
best staff schools to meet student needs.”
Sogge said funding for all division staff originates
from the provincial operating grant provided to all
school by the Ministry of Education. Funding specific to
EAs is based on the needs of students across the division
and approved by the board of education.
Wotherspoon hopes that changes will arrive throughout the province and is calling on government to make
education a priority, recognize the strength of the economy, bring resources needed and invest in the classroom.
Wotherspoon said, “Chatting with teachers and as a
teacher myself, I recognize how important an educational assistant is in a classroom and in a school.”

Red 2 - The original Red from a couple years back was
a surprisingly good movie about old secret agents forced
back into action after their lives had been threatened.
That movie made a fair amount of money, so the gang’s
back with a few new additions (Anthony Hopkins and
Catherine Zeta-Jones) for another go. As with Red part
one, Helen Mirren and John Malkovich steal the show
with their hilarious antics and Hopkins has fun with his
role . . . if you like part one . . . here is more. (PG)
Getaway - Since the Fast and Furious movies make
gobs of money with car chases, the producers of Getaway try their hand at it. Simple story has race car driver Ethan Hawke forced to take a high-speed race against
time when his wife is kidnapped. Selena Gomez and Jon
Voight round out the cast as the girl and the bad guy.

Musings
■ with Ann Onymous
Oh, those hiccups! There are several
ways to stop hiccups, so, if one does
not work, try another. Eat a spoonful of
peanut butter, ask someone to scare you
when you are not prepared for it, drink
the juice of a fresh orange, eat chalk that
is used for writing on blackboards, take
a swallow of very hot water or very cold
water or take onion juice in teaspoonful
doses. The latest one I have heard of is
apply ice cubes to the sides of the neck,
at the level of the larynx. And one of
my friends says that a few pinches of
dry, white sugar will sometimes do the
trick.

Today’s
decisions could
cost tomorrow
Every day, Canadians
are faced with spend versus save decisions that will
have an eventual impact on
their future financial life
and the quality of their retirement years. Here is the
dilemma in a nutshell: “I
know I should save for my
retirement but that new big
screen LED TV is on sale for
a great price and it would
be a terrific upgrade for our
family room.”
Sure, it is difficult to
think about a distant future
plan (something intangible
that is way down the road)
when you can get something you want today, this
is why many people do not
set realistic goals. But, in
this case the solution seems
obvious: stay with the perfectly serviceable TV you
have already paid for and
put the money you would
Managing
your money
John Gunderson, CFP
have spent on the new one
into a retirement fund (or
some other investment).
Simple, right? But there
is much more to effective
financial planning than investing in investments held
within an RRSP or other
savings vehicle. While it
is undeniably true the earlier you start saving, the
better - especially within a
tax-reducing, tax-sheltered
RRSP where the magic of
compounding will enhance
your investment growth
over time - the first thing
you need to know is what
you are saving for. In other
words, you cannot measure
a future need without knowing what that need will be.
So start by carefully defining your objectives - some
are straightforward, like
your desire to buy a larger
home at some future date;
others require much more
thought, like looking at
your retirement from every
angle and defining the level
and duration of finances
you will eventually need to
achieve your dreams.
Once you have made
your calculations, it is time
to decide on how and how
much you should invest to
reach your objectives. And
now things become even
more complex:
• What happens if the
amount you think is adequate gets eaten up by an
inflation level that escalates
sometime in the future?

Nov. 15, three local artists, Toni Ambrose, Bryce Erickson and Linda
Leslie (l - r) held a well-attended opening reception for their new
gallery in downtown Watrous, located in the Mall on Main and 3rd.
• What if your choices of
investments do not provide
the levels of returns you
will one day need - because
the returns have been reduced by market volatility
or an unexpected economic
downturn?
• What if your income - and
thus, your ability to save
- is affected by ill health, a
workplace accident, a sudden unexpected expense, or
even job loss?
But do not be deterred
- there are answers to all
- and also vital. Make the
right decisions today and
for your future by talking to

Editorial and Opinion
A fan in the making
It is almost impossible not to write something sports
related this week, what with Grey Cup fever sweeping
across the province. As I have no particular knowledge
or expertise related to football other than that as an
armchair fan, I wondered what I could discuss that
would be any better or different than the hundreds of
media articles and interviews already circulating.
That got me thinking about how my own relationship
with the sport began and developed. Back in 1989, I was
seeing my now-husband Robin and we spent a number
of weekend ‘dates’ watching the Roughriders as they
marched their way to a Grey Cup win that fall. It was
my first experience watching football in any form, as
there was no high school team in those years. I wouldn’t
say I was immediately hooked, by any means, but the
prospect of watching good-looking men with broad
shoulders and tight pants didn’t hurt!
We even attended a game in person sometime between then and when Garrett was born in 1995, and I
recall being particularly confused about why everyone
in the stands was cheering for the opposing team rather
than our own. It had to be explained to me that the fans
were to make noise during the opposition’s turn on
offense so as to make it difficult for them to make calls
and to force them into penalties like time-count violations and offsides. Once that was made clear, it made
perfect sense - and I found that to be an ongoing theme
with me and sports throughout the years: I needed to
learn the background, strategies, concepts and theories
behind the game in order to learn and grow as a fan.
With little experience of my own other than in high
school volleyball and track and field, I had no history to
draw upon: growing up without brothers or a live-in dad
created a vacuum concerning sports contests.
I began to realize that, more often than not, interest
in an activity tends to develop according to the level
of participation or understanding of that sport. What
began for me with football has, over the years, expanded
to more games. Hockey was the first and most obvious.
The Winterhawks were in a heyday in the late ‘80s and
Robin was one of the goalies, so I was plunged into the
world of senior hockey, road trips and evenings in the
Kin room at the top of the rink. I was an enthusiastic,
if not particularly appropriate, fan. I definitely let my
mouth get the best of me more than once in those years.
It wasn’t long after we were married in 1991 that Robin
introduced me to golf. Boring, stupid, frustrating, souldestroying golf. It took about a year or two to fall headover-heels in love with it. I didn’t know anything about
the game - not the rules and certainly not the etiquette.
I couldn’t understand why I had to stop talking when
people - myself included - were preparing to hit their next
shot. I mean, conditions are perfect for a two-hour-long
conversation and I have to continually stuff a sock in it? It
took a long time to learn that lesson - perhaps even longer
than the one to keep my head down and swing easy!
Then our son came along and as he got older, I was
introduced to more unknowns, particularly curling. This
was one sport about which I had expressed disdain on
more than one occasion. Games was long and boring,
and I could not understand how anyone would bother
spending several hours watching either in person or
even worse, on TV. And then Garrett started competing
in bonspiels and through school, and that’s all it took this
mom to change her tune in a hurry. I began to understand the nuances of the game - and the rules of conduct,
after seeing the horrified looks on people’s faces the
first time I rapped on the glass to point out something to
Garrett’s team. Who knew that was a complete breach of
etiquette? No one had ever mentioned it - but it’s a lesson
I learned the first time and have never forgotten!
Today, after many years of developing my own opinions, my approach to the world of sports has become
pretty well established. I still have my favourites, and
they tend to be those in which I or my family have directly participated. There is just something about being
able to empathize with the players that lends a particular urgency and added level of excitement, even if that
emotion is expressed from one’s living room. The best
part of that? Modern HD TVs display those broad shoulders and tight pants much better than back in 1989!

The fabric of quilting’s history
One of my favourite
hobbies is quilting, so
when the annual quilt
show opened its doors I
was anxious to see what
the new trends for this
year were. It was a full
day as I pondered over the
exhibit entries, took in a
few seminars and wandered the booths looking
for something new.
Of interest was a local
club that makes quilts to
give away to charity. This
year, the members chose
to display all the quilts
they had made - over
360. This is quite a story.
Some members only like
to sew the quilt tops and
one of the members has a
long arm machine so she
sews the tops and backing
together. The materials
are all donated as is the
time. For those who quilt
or know a quilter, you
know the amount of hours
that goes into the making
of one quilt. There were
children’s quilts, baby
quilts and adult quilts of
a variety of patterns, all
made with great care.
The same could be said
of the quilts on display what a variety. Of course,
not all were to my liking
but no one could deny
the workmanship that
went into the making.
The variety of materials, and the colours and
patterns on display were
mind bogging. Some quilts
told a story such as the
one made in memory of
a breast cancer victim.
Others were made just for
fun.
Basically, quilting is
sandwiching three layers
of fabric (top, batting for
warmth and backing)
stitched together. Quilting has a long history, the
craft being traced back to
ancient Egypt and China.
In the eleventh century,
quilting was used to hold
together layers of padding
under armour.
The 18th century
showcased the stylishness
of quilts as English ladies
wore quilted petticoats
and underskirts, and
gentlemen often wore
quilted waistcoats. At
this time quilted bedding
became popular.
Quilting came to the
Americas in the 19th
century and since then
designs have evolved into
some very distinct forms.
Appliqué, patchwork,
Amish work, folk art.
There is a rich history of
quilting and oftentimes
quilts will tell about a
period of history.

road Quilt is one example.
During the American
Civil War when the slaves
were fleeing into Canada,
quilts would often carry
secret messages to help
the slave escape. As slaves
could not read or write,
codes were used - forms
of dance, spirituals, code
words and phrases - and
these symbols were memorized to help the slaves
communicate with each
other.
Each pattern would
represent a different
meaning with the most
common patterns being
“monkey wrench”, “star”,
“crossroads”, and “wagon
wheel”. Quilts hung over a
fence or windowsill would
pass on information to the
slaves.
During the Depression
when every little thing
was recycled, women
would often make quilts
from flour bags, a sort of
cotton ticking. Tobacco
companies would give
away silk pictures in packages of cigarettes. These
were used in projects,
called Crazy Quilts. A log
cabin quilt often has a red
centre that symbolizes the
hearth of the home. If it
has a yellow centre it represents a welcoming light
in the window.

is outdated.
I see the lack of interaction among neighbours
as a disappointment. Yet, I
recognize I need to get with
the pace of today. Often
the parents in a home are
both working, with children involved in various
activities so that families
may not even have time
to eat together, let alone
talk to neighbours. I also
know folks are in touch
with other people across
our nation and around the
world by Internet, etc. It is
baffling to me folks do not
know their neighbours
next door, yet know folks
half a world away.
The dictionary defines
neighbour as one who lives
or is situated near another.
Neighbouring means next
to or nearby. Neighbourly
means friendly and helpful, considerate, etc. I feel
the best neighbourhoods
are those where neighbourly folks are found.
Jesus defined a neighbour
as anyone in need.
Jesus told the story of a
man who was attacked as
he travelled down a road
and was left beaten and
half dead at the side of
the road. Two people came
down the road and left the
man injured without offering any help or concern for
him. A Samaritan came
down the road and stopped
and helped the man. He
treated the man’s wounds
and took him to an inn
where he could recover.
Jesus showed that a neighbour is anyone whom we
see is in trouble. Being a
neighbour is our willingness to help another who is
in need.
It seems today most
folks have nonstop places
to go and things to get done.
Everyone is so busy looking to their own business
and affairs there is no time
or interest for neighbours.
Sadly, many folks have also
become so busy they have
no time for God. Is it because God is dead? April 8,
1966 Time magazine asked
this same question “Is God
Dead?” In 1961, theologian
Gabriel Vahanian argued
in his book, The Death of
God, that modern secular
culture had lost all sense of
the sacred. He concluded
that to the modern mind,
‘God is dead.’
German
philosopher
Friedrich Nietzsche used
the phrase, ‘God is dead,’
way back in 1882 when he
wrote: “God is dead. God
remains dead. And we
have killed him. Yet his
shadow still looms.” Once
folks believed that God is
almighty and all-powerful,
a spirit, existing above and
independent of all things
yet holding everything and
everyone in His mighty
power. Today God is not
dead but many act, as if,
He is dead or dead to them
and their neighbours have
no names.

victories, to be at home,
by TWM reporter
to have a legitimate shot
Daniel Bushman
at winning and a chance
to overcome some unfortunate losses a few years earlier, the Nov. 24 game was tough to beat.
Since this column went to press before the big game,
you can see how close I was or was not in my prediction.
In the regular season, the first game between Saskatchewan and Hamilton was July 21 when the ‘Riders won at
home 37-0. The green and white headed east July 27 and
were victorious 32-20.
In the Grey Cup, the ‘Riders won if:
• they got pressure to Henry Burris and threw him
off his game;
• Darian Durant threw as good as he did against Calgary;
• Kory Sheets ran for mega yards. If he eclipsed 100
yards, then it was a victory;
• the fans kept the pedal down on crowd noise; and,
• the defense played like it has for much of the season: dominant.
In the game, Hamilton won if:
• Henry Burris got in a rhythm. Burris can be tough
to beat when he gets rolling;
• coach Kent Austin’s game plan worked to perfection. Austin is a winner and up to the Grey Cup game
over the weekend was undefeated as a head coach in the
CFL postseason;
• runningback C.J. Gable stepped up a notch. That
can open the passing game if the running game gets going;
• they scored early to take the crowd out of the game.
The ‘13th’ man in the stands can be a huge difference
maker; and,
• if the temperature was closer to 0˚C or above. The
colder it was, the tougher I think it would be for the
team to win since they did not play in the cold much.
My prediction: Saskatchewan 31-24 over Hamilton
as Durant kicks it into high gear and shreds the ‘Cats
defense. As I said earlier this year, on paper the ‘Riders have the team to make it happen and hopefully that
translated into a victory on the field.
Ticket prices on ebay.com soared early last week as
people were hoping to cash in on the home team being
in the Cup. A pair of ‘prime midfield row two’ tickets
could have been had for $3,900 while others in higher
sections ranged all the way up to $1,800. By last Thursday there was even a pair for $18,000. Either the person
entering the price added one too many zeros or else they
were hoping for someone to really want to go.
For years people have said, “Could you imagine what
it would be like if the ‘Riders got to the Grey Cup at
home?” Well, this was it and I can pretty much guarantee the atmosphere did not disappoint. What a thrill for
those who had the chance to experience it in full. I was
not one of those but I can imagine it will be something
talked about for years to come, especially if the ‘Riders
won! Here is hoping that happened. If it didn’t, I know
my cousin Brad will be on cloud nine today - one of the
only Tiger-Cats’ fans I know.
That’s all for now . . . stay classy and stick to the
point.
Provincial
gold in
Watrous
■ Daniel Bushman
The Watrous Manitou
November 25, 2013
Facing tough opponents and seeking their first
provincial gold medal in
senior girls volleyball, the
Winston Wildcats co-hosted this year’s 3A provincial
event Nov. 15 and 16. An
action-packed weekend of
play ended just the way the
team wanted - with gold.
Watrous, which had the
distinction of being ranked
number one, was slotted
in a pool with Rosthern
Junior College, Rossignol,
Waldheim and Wynyard.
Watrous met Wynyard
in its opening matchup
Nov. 15 at noon. According
to the Saskatchewan High
Schools Athletic Association’s website, the home
team showed no nerves as
it dominated the opening
set with 18 consecutive
serves. The crew continued
its strong play to a 25-2 win.
In set two, each team went
back and forth before the
Wildcats pulled away with
a 25-15 victory.
Up 1-0, Watrous met
Rossignol in its afternoon
contest.
The
Wildcats
started off with a 2-2 game
before paving the way for a
14-4 run. Up 16-6, the Wildcats maintained their lead
and won 25-13. Game two
had Rossignol jump out
6-3. After coming back,
Watrous found itself with a
13-9 advantage and grabbed
momentum. The Wildcats
pressed on, winning 25-12
to improve to 2-0.
Rosthern was next up for
the Wildcats in their final
game of the day. Each club
put points on board and according to the SHSAA website, both squads exhibited
great hitting and solid defense. Rosthern came back
from a 22-18 deficit to tie
the game at 22 but Watrous
pushed forward to win 2523. In set two, the Wildcats
went up 16-11 but like the
previous game, Rosthern
rallied. With several big
time digs and strong net
play, Watrous was able to
keep the momentum and

won 25-18.
With a 3-0 record,
Watrous travelled to Lanigan to face the remaining
undefeated team in its pool.
Waldheim, which also sat
at 3-0 came out strong and
with both teams pegged as
tough, it was the Raiders
winning set one 25-19. The
second game saw unforced
errors by the Wildcats but
they mounted a comeback.
Watrous tied the game at
17 and then again at 22 but
it was not enough as Waldheim went on to a 25-22
(see page nine: CHAMPS)
Winterhawks on a roll
November 25, 2013
The start of the season did not go quite as planned but
the Watrous Winterhawks put together a few wins as the
Long Lake Hockey season moved along. After dropping
its first game against Nokomis, Watrous headed east to
face the Chiefs Nov. 16.
With Rylan Crawford between the pipes for the
Winterhawks, the visitors scored first shorthanded.
Craig Olynick notched the opening marker of the game
almost three minutes in.
Less than five minutes later, Nokomis replied with a
goal from captain Brett Leedahl. The Chiefs made it 2-1
with 7:19 left in period one when Chad Murton notched
his first of the game.
Watrous evened the contest 1:07 after that as Olynick
scored his second from Zak Pankhurst, getting the puck
past Adam Isherwood. With a tie game, the home squad
pulled ahead once more with a goal from Leedahl. That
was it for the opening 20 minutes and Watrous headed
into the dressing room down by one.
That changed in a hurry once the second period started. Travis Eggum began his goal-scoring parade with his
first 17 seconds in from Josh Elder and Woody Klassen.
Eggum then tallied again, this time on the powerplay,
from Klassen and Adam Slobodzian.
With Watrous leading 4-3, Nokomis replied with 13:38
to play with a Kirk Belyk goal.
Eggum notched his hat trick goal at the 11:34 mark to
get his team back up by one with Slobodzian and Klassen
getting the helpers. Just over a minute after that, Spencer Braaten scored his first of the game from Ben Bitz to
make it 6-4.
Nokomis got back to within one with 9:14 remaining

victory.
Sitting at 3-1 after
round-robin play, Watrous
faced Saskatoon Christian
in game one of playoffs.
Thanks to strong hitting,
Watrous leaped out 11-3
and then 13-3. Saskatoon
made it 13-7 but momentum had the Wildcats push
forward 17-8 and then 25-13
to take set one.
In the second set, it was a
close game before Watrous
pulled ahead 13-8. The team
made it 17-11 and then with
great defense and a solid
offense won 25-13.
The Wildcats met up
with Lanigan in the provincial semifinal. The two
host teams started off even
before Watrous moved in
front 10-4. Down 14-6, Lanigan fought back to 14-9 but
the Wildcats pressed to go
up 18-9 and then 25-15.
Game two had Lanigan
leading 5-1 before the Wildcats closed the gap to 6-5.
The visitors extended their
lead before Watrous tied it
at 14. A Lanigan timeout
provided an opportunity to
go ahead 18-14 and eventually win 25-19.
The third and final set
went back and forth as
neither was able to get
more than a two-point
advantage. Watrous then
squeaked ahead 11-7 and
led 13-9. However, the Lazers fought back to tie the
game at 14. The Wildcats
edged ahead 22-19 and once
again Lanigan crept to 2423 but Watrous had a nice
tip at the net to move on to
the gold medal.
In the provincial final
and in front of a packed
gymnasium, the Wildcats faced Waldheim, the
team that beat Watrous in
round-robin play. According to the SHSAA website,
in the first set, Watrous
had a slight advantage at
7-4 but Waldheim replied,
taking a 9-7 lead. The Wildcats got back to 12-11 but
the Raiders pushed out to
16-11 and then 17-15. Strong
defense and great middle
hits allowed Waldheim to
win 25-22.
In the second set,
Watrous shot out to a 7-3
advantage. Waldheim replied to get to within one
but Watrous’ strong serving pushed the score to 2010. Up 23-12, the Wildcats
grabbed another two points
and eventually won 25-15.
The third and deciding
set for the provincial gold
medal had the home team
lead 5-0. The Raiders replied from an 8-1 deficit to
Teamwork
With one loss in round-robin play, the Winston
Wildcat senior girls volleyball team found its
groove and worked together, marching all the way
10-6 and then 11-8.
With strong hitting,
Watrous held serve and led
18-9. A timeout by Waldheim did not help as the
Wildcats increased their
lead to 20-10. Watrous continued to press to 21-12 and
with more great play, took
home a 25-14 victory and a
gold medal.
Lanigan defeated Rosthern in two straight sets
to capture bronze.
Winston coach Trudi
Riach said the goal for this
year was to place in the top
three at provincials. “We
set up our year to play in
very competitive tournaments including many 4A
and 5A teams. That made
us stronger as a team.”
With gold medals around
their necks, Riach said the
team capturing gold was a
huge accomplishment for
them and the volleyball
program. “It has never
been done before and as a
matter of fact, there has
never been a regional winner either (from Watrous).
It was great to win conference, regionals and provincials. The tournament
had some stiff competition
and many players from the
top four teams also play on
club volleyball teams in the
province.”
Coming up with a whole
new offensive and defensive strategy for each game
in the tournament, Riach
said they were able to build
and carry momentum
through most of the event.
“We started strong and beat
Wynyard in the first game
25-2 with Jensen Lewis beginning with 18 consecutive
serves. Beating Lanigan in
the semifinals was another
highlight. They are a very
strong team and have two
exceptional hitters on that
to the provincial final. There it defeated Waldheim
2-1 to claim gold.
team. The final highlight
was the last game. After
losing the first game, they
had to fight back to win
two more games. That is a
difficult thing to do in volleyball when momentum
can shift so easily.”
Riach said the loss
against
Waldheim
in
round-robin play may have
been a blessing in disguise
since the team was able to
come back to Watrous and
play in its own gym. “The
gym got fuller and fuller
for each game we played
in the playoffs. It was an
incredible experience for
the girls to have so many
fed off the energy of the
fans and supporters in that
audience.”
With many early mornings, solid work ethic
and dedication, Riach
said, “The kids all have a
huge passion for the game
but this group is successful due to their hard work
and willingness to commit
to a team approach. Their
motto for the year was ‘one
of us is no stronger than all
of us’. They devised this vision and motto at the start
of the year that drove them
to be better (and) sacrificed
their time, work, and time
with their friends for the

The head coach said
each one of the players was
instrumental in achiev-
ing success this year. “We
practiced at 6:15 a.m. three
to four times a week and
the positive energy they
brought to every single

headed to Glentworth and
was in a pool with the host
team, Fox Valley, Plenty
and Yellow Grass. In game
one Nov. 15, Imperial met
Fox Valley. According to
the SHSAA website, Imperial lost its opening matches
by scores of 25-13.
The team looked to rebound in its 3 p.m. game
against Yellow Grass. Both
teams came out pretty
even as the game was tied
at four and nine. However,
Yellow Grass edged ahead
18-13 and eventually won
the opening set 25-19.
Yellow Grass jumped
out to a six-point lead in the
second match but Imperial
was resilient and marched
back to tie the game at nine.
Imperial fell behind again
but came back to take a
20-17 lead. The team continued to gain momentum
and rallied to win 25-18.
In the third set, Imperial
went back and forth with
Yellow Grass but continued
to fight for valuable points
and found a 25-19 victory.
With a 1-1 record, Imperial met Plenty but in a close
game with scores of 14-13,
18-14 and 19-16 for Plenty,
it lost 25-22 in the first set.
In the second set, Plenty
became too much and won
25-15.
In the team’s final
round-robin match, Imperial faced Glentworth
Nov. 16. Imperial jumped
out to a 10-2 advantage and
kept the pedal down, winning 25-11 in set one. In the
second set, with the game
tied at 19, Imperial pulled
away to win 25-21, evening
its record at 2-2.
That was good enough
to move on to the playoff
round where they faced
Loreburn. In the first set,
the see-saw battle had each
team putting points on the
board. However, at the end
of set one, Loreburn came
away 25-18 winners.
In set two, teams tied
at seven and Imperial
continued to claw its way
towards a win. With both
clubs at 14, Imperial took
a two-point lead but Loreburn came back to even
the score. The pair tied up
the game again at 21 and
then again at 24. The contest continued to go back
and forth as both tied at 25
and then 26. Imperial did
not let up and was able to
get enough to win a 30-28
thriller and force a third
set.
Unfortunately in the
third set, Loreburn went
up 4-0 and then 13-2. Imperial put a few more points
on the board to get closer
but it was not enough as
the Azteks advanced 25-13.
Loreburn lost in the next
round to Fox Valley who
went on to claim the provincial title against Plenty.
Facing off in the Wheatland Hockey League
November 25, 2013
Local clubs have been hitting the ice in the Wheatland
Hockey League as always with an eye to the postseason.
While that is a few months away, teams are aiming to generate some wins early on in the season.
With a 2-0 record to start the season, according to the
Wheatland Hockey League’s website, the Allan Flames
headed to St. Brieux Nov. 15. In that game, Allan jumped
out to a 2-1 lead in the opening period but St. Brieux tallied one midway through the second. Teams did not score
until the shootout where the Nordiques got the winner to
take the game 3-2. Kelsy Nordmarken and Evan Pasternak got the goals for the Flames.
According to the Wheatland website, Justin Wright
leads the team with six points while Brandon Schatz was
in net for the Nov. 15 contest.
The schedule slated that the Flames headed to Holdfast Nov. 23. Allan goes to Dundurn Nov. 27 and hosts
Lake Lenore Nov. 30.
In Holdfast, the Trackstoppers kicked off the year
1-2 and took on Young Nov. 16. With a 3-0 advantage after
one period, Holdfast got through the second period up
4-3. In the third, Young scored quickly to tie the game but
Holdfast replied to win 5-4. Chad Seidel had three goals in
the victory while Brett Trudelk and Dane Measner also
scored.
Seidel leads the team in points while Tanner Kehler
got the win in net.
The Trackstoppers were home to Allan Nov. 23, welcome Kinistino Nov. 30 and Dundurn Dec. 6.
Imperial got out of the gates with three straight wins
before facing Young Nov. 15. In that contest, the Sabres
fell behind 2-0 after one period. The team notched a pair
of second-period goals but it was not enough as it lost 4-3.
Scoring for Imperial were Andrew Stratton, Brett Mooney and David Baade.

Former ‘Rider quarterback recalls Grey Cup
■ Daniel Bushman
The Watrous Manitou
November 25, 2013
Ridernation was rocking last week as the Saskatchewan Roughriders hit
the turf at Mosaic Stadium
in Regina Nov. 24, seeking
their fourth Grey Cup in
franchise history. The last
time the green and white
claimed the trophy came
six years ago when it was
quarterback Kerry Joseph
leading the way over Winnipeg in 2007.
In his second year as
a member of the green
and white, Joseph had an
outstanding season as he
threw for over 4,000 yards
and 24 touchdowns while
rushing for 737 yards and
13 touchdowns on the
ground. For that effort,
Joseph was named the
league’s most outstanding
player in 2007 en route to a
Grey Cup.
The now 11-year CFL
veteran recalled the Cinderella season while the
current team got set to go,
this time at home.
“It was a great experience,” said Joseph during a phone interview. “It
was one of those moments
where, when we won that
western final, we were able
to look back and see all
that hard work and all the
dedication and drive we
put in as a team and individuals collectively and it
paid off.”
After the western final
win, Joseph said the players refocused for the stage
that was set in Toronto for
the 95th Grey Cup. “It was
great for the province and
I really embraced everything this province and the
city of Regina did for me.
To be named the MOP for
that season, it was only fitting to be able to share that
and the Grey Cup with my
team.”
Joseph’s mom and future wife headed east to
Toronto with the quarterback, who said, “They were
amazed at all the green
that was just around the
city of Toronto. You look at
the game and it was really
like a home game for us. It
just shows the support that
this team, the Roughriders,
have across Canada and
not just in Saskatchewan.”
Fast forward to the present, and the focus shifted
towards the 101st Grey Cup
in Regina. Joseph, who
spent time in the Queen
City last week, said having
the host team in the championship was an incredible
feat.
“Just to know that they
are playing in their own
stadium, it is going to be
from page nine:
WHEATLAND
The team headed to Naicam Nov. 16 to take on the Vikings. The scoring summary was not available on the
Wheatland website but the Sabres lost 3-2.
Five players have five points to lead the team: Andrew
Stratton, Logan Rieger, Chris Mussleman, Clay Cooke
and Brett Mooney.
With a record of 3-2, Imperial was home to Lake
Lenore Nov. 22 and Dundurn Nov. 23. The team heads to
Craik Nov. 29 and welcomes Naicam Nov. 30.
Young was 0-3 to begin the year as it headed to undefeated Imperial Nov. 15. The Comets were looking to
priceless. It is going to be
hard to find Tiger-Cats fans
in there, that is for sure.”
Drawing from his own
experience Joseph said,
“You try to keep the same
schedule and you try to
stay as normal as possible
but it is hard. It is going
to bring some nerves and
bring some anxiety. But
once that first two or three
series get underway, guys
are going to settle in and
realize ‘let’s just play football.’”
Joseph came into the
league with Ottawa in 2003
and during his tenure has
played with numerous
players, including a handful that suited up over the
weekend.
The quarterback who
has passed for over 27,400
yards in his CFL career
was on the 2007 team with
current ‘Riders Darian Durant, Mike McCullough,
Chris Best and John
Chick. He also played with
current Tiger-Cats Andy
Fantuz and Corey Grant
and was coached by Kent
Austin.
Joseph said it was no
surprise that both of those
teams made it to the championship game this year.
While Hamilton struggled
to start the season, Austin tweaked his roster and
Joseph said his former
Great accomplishment
With a Grey Cup and the CFL’s most outstanding
player of the year award in 2007, former ‘Rider
quarterback Kerry Joseph said the current team
coach’s philosophy has always been just to play regardless of circumstances.
“As they started winning
ball games, they started to
believe regardless of the
situation. So it didn’t surprise me that Kent got his
team here.”
The 40-year-old said the
‘Riders loaded up for their
run. “You look at the transactions that they made . .
. it was about winning for
them and winning now.
They knew that the opportunity was there to play in
it and they set themselves
up for it.”
break that trend and got off to a good start with two
goals in the opening period. According to the game sheet,
Spencer McArthur opened with a tally and after the first
20 minutes it was 2-0.
In the second, Imperial got two goals of its own while
Young countered with two more. Up 4-2, Young’s Brett
Papic allowed just one in the third and the Comets skated
away 4-3 victors to win their first of the year.
Fresh off their win, the Comets faced Holdfast Nov.
16 but it was the Trackstoppers scoring three in the first
to go up 3-0. Young replied with two in the first half of
the second from Jessie Dengler. Anthony St. Onge, Cole
Anderson and Scott Helmkay had the helpers. Holdfast
scored another and led 4-2 but with 1:56 left in the middle

Holdfast found the back of the net midway through the
frame to jump ahead 5-4 and that was how the game finished.
Stuart Holocomb leads the Comets with five points

last week going to schools

kids to learn about making
positive choices in life. He

but the Winterhawks came right back 1:10
after that with another Eggum tally from
Braaten to make it 7-5. Watrous then got
goals from Eggum and Bitz to round out
the period and took a 9-5 advantage into
the third frame.
Watrous’ Olynick scored his third of
the contest just over six minutes into the
last 20 minutes before Nokomis got two
goals less than a minute apart from Leedahl and Belyk.
With the score 10-7, Watrous got two
more tallies, one from Patrick Ullyott and
the other by Braaten to wrap up the game
12-7.
With two wins in three games, Watrous
was back home Nov. 19 to face LeRoy. The
Braves got off to a quick start but Winterhawk netminder Evan Reifferscheid
made some key saves to keep the game
scoreless.
With shots 14-10, both netminders were
the story and as the period came to a close
the Winterhawks were put on the penalty
kill. Shots favoured Watrous 16-11.
As the second period started, LeRoy
finally solved Reifferscheid. An early
tally put the visitors on the board first
but that did not last long as Watrous came
right back. Just over two minutes into the
period, Adam Slobodzian shot the puck
past a sprawling Unrau from Eggum and
Moore.
With the game tied at one, Watrous
went on the powerplay but a clearing attempt by LeRoy sent the Braves down
the ice and created a scoring opportunity shorthanded. The visitors connected
on that chance and pulled ahead 2-1 with
10:58 left in period two.
The physical and fast contest continued and with Slobodzian on the ice, the
forward had a pair of chances to score,
including a breakaway, but Unrau nabbed
the puck with his glove. Watrous continued to press and with just over three
minutes to play, Brad Harding snapped a
low shot on net from the blueline that spit
out on a rebound to Dave Hannah and he
knocked it past Unrau to tie the game.
The Winterhawks were not done there
as Colin Peet fired a shot on net and the
rebound found the stick of Moore who
shot it past Unrau, making it 3-2.
With the home team up by one, period two came to a close. Watrous carried
much of the play in that frame and had a
33-22 shot advantage after 40 minutes.
In the third, Reifferscheid made a big
save early to keep his team ahead. The
Winterhawks killed an ensuing penalty
and teams went back and forth as the period ticked down.
With 3:12 to play, Olynick let go a bullet from the blueline that cranked the
crossbar and beat Unrau. Patrick Ullyott
drew an assist to make it 4-2 for the home
team.
That was all the scoring as the Winterhawks won their third in a row. Shots were
45-28 for the home crew as Reifferscheid
got the win in net.
Watrous was in Drake Nov. 22 and is
home to Davidson Nov. 26. Watrous travels
to Lanigan Nov. 30 and is in LeRoy Dec. 3.
November 25, 2013
With a chance to earn a spot in provincials, two curlers
with ties to Watrous competed at the junior women’s qualifier in Yorkton. The first of three qualifying bonspiels,
which followed a triple knockout format, took place Nov. 8
to 10 in Yorkton. Four teams from each qualifier, including
one that will be held in Watrous this weekend, move on to
North Battleford for provincials Dec. 27 to 31.
Defending provincial champion Jessica Hanson and
her rink, along with Janelle Regier who plays on Brooke
Tokarz’ team, both headed to Yorkton to try to clinch a provincial spot in the first qualifier. One team from the A side,

As I write this Tuesday, Nov. 19, there is the odd snowflake falling! We have about four or five inches of snow.
Yes, winter is here!
Bert and Sharon Reeves, Robert and Muriel McLane
and Don and I enjoyed supper with Linda Van Damme in
her home in Imperial Friday, Nov. 15.
Several from the area attended the Catholic Church
beef supper in Imperial Sunday, Nov. 17.
Sympathy to the family of Jean Dornian who passed
away Nov. 19 in Regina.
The Liberty playground looks great with all that new
stuff for the kids to play on. Good job guys!
If you have any news, give me a call.
Greetings all. Community condolences are extended
to Gertie Uhmann, her family and many friends on the
recent passing of her husband Gus, aged 95 years. Gus is
something of a legend at Manitou Beach; he worked as
a physiotherapist for many years with Dr. Stipe and was
the first registered physiotherapist in Saskatchewan.
The Uhmanns later established their own clinic here
and in Winnipeg. Gus also served on village council during the era of the very low water levels in Little Manitou
Lake and was involved in increasing the flow of water
into the lake. Prairie Reflections has an excellent writeup about Gus and Gertie coming here, some of you will
remember that the couple celebrated their 70th wedding
anniversary just a few years ago.
The Book Club met Nov. 19 to discuss the book February written by Lisa Moore. The book tells of the Ocean
Ranger disaster in February 1982 and describes the grief
and life changes of one of those widowed.
Enjoy the snow shovelling, Sue.

Did you know that a traditional drain and fill oil change
service can leave up to 20% of the used oil inside your
engine? What remains behind is often the sludge and
varnish deposits, wear debris and other contamination
that do the most damage. They start to contaminate the
fresh oil the moment you turn the key.
Try the new Oil Cleaning System to loosen the harmful
deposits so they can be drained away before adding
fresh oil. Oil treatment is then added to the oil to combat
engine wear and prolong the lubrication of the fresh
engine oil. $3295.

Remembrance Day service was held Nov. 11 in St. Alphonse Church auditorium. The day dawned bright and
clear. Over 80 community people came to participate in
the service. Comrade John Dale, president, led the colour parade and Comrade Ed Morelli, treasurer led the
service. Comrade Doug Leigh, one of our few remaining
veterans, called out the honour roll. Comrade Debbie
Clavelle gave the reflection - truly from the heart. Comrade Lindsay Bergermann and Comrade Loa Titman
read the scriptures. Comrade Urbain Morelli read a remembrance poem. Mary Comeault provided the music
for the occasion while Comrade Dave Titman looked
after the Last Post and Reveille. Viscount RCL had excellent community support in the purchase of wreaths.
Comrade Jennifer Lemky read out the names of over
35 businesses or organizations as their representatives
laid a wreath at the indoor cenotaph. Lunch was served
by Sarah Emblin and Emma Lemky. After the service,
people were able to peruse 72 posters and 19 poems submitted by the VCS students for the Legion Poster and Literary contest. Some very thought provoking work! The
posters will be judged later this week and the winners
notified at the school. Local winners go on to zone competition. It was very gratifying to see the participation of
the young people. They are remembering.
There were four people at the monthly seniors meeting Nov. 14. The next meeting will be Dec. 12.
On a cold and blustery Saturday morning, Nov. 16,
there were 16 brave souls out for breakfast at the Viscount seniors weekly fundraiser. Greg Wagner won the
lucky loonie, while Gerri Dieno and Karen Dale did all
the work.
The Viscount seniors open house has been cancelled
for the remainder of the month as only one person
showed up on each of the four days. It was open for Tuesday and Thursday game days.
Monday, Nov. 18, Armand Clavelle celebrated his 65th
birthday. Friends and family gathered at Armand’s home
on the weekend and helped him celebrate. The day of his
birthday, friends gathered at Viscount Stop & Shop to
surprise him with another celebration. They had a lovely
cake made up. He was presented with a banjo, banjo case
and some gift certificates for lessons. Maybe we will see
him at next year’s talent night and coffeehouse. Armand
said he had a terrific weekend and day.
Three ladies met for sewing this past week. However,
22 blankets were delivered to the Salvation Army shelter! They were so happy to receive the blankets as they
are always in need of them.
If you have any news to share, please pass it on to me.
Best wishes to anyone who is under the weather, I hope
you feel better soon. Have a great week!

UHMANN,
Gustav (Gus) Henry
Gustav Uhmann, aged
95 years, passed away at
Last Mountain Pioneer
Home in Strasbourg on
Tuesday, November 12,
2013.
Gustav was born in
Czechoslovakia on September 21, 1918, the youngest
of seven children to Frank
and Anna. He trained as a
physical therapist and immigrated to Canada in 1939, homesteading in Loon Lake.
Gus married Gertrud Sinek in London, England in 1939.
Together they raised two children Eric and Dorothy.
They moved to Manitou Beach in 1942 to continue his
profession as a registered physical therapist. Later, this
included shared time in Winnipeg (1949) leaving Gertie
to manage the farm on her own, with the help and advice of neighbours, many of whom had immigrated with
them and spoke German. In order to earn a living, he
would also work in the lab and x-ray departments at the
Watrous Hospital and do other jobs. He was always proud
of his profession and was a founding member (one of
the first 10) of the Saskatchewan and Manitoba Physical Therapy Associations, serving on the executive. He
served the community of Manitou Beach as councillor
and later travelled in all kinds of weather from Winnipeg
to attend monthly council meetings. He enjoyed skiing,
curling and bird hunting with friends. He remained an
active member of Watrous Masonic Lodge and Khartom
Shrine Temple in Winnipeg. While he was a Shrine member he could pursue his passion for motorcycles and later
sports cars. Family and friends were very important to
him.
Gus is survived by his loving wife of 74 years, Gertrud; son Eric (Verone) of Winnipeg; daughter Dorothy
of Calgary; grandson Scott (Janice), great grandchildren Finley and Amelia all of Winnipeg; granddaughter
Tanys (Eric) of Ottawa and granddaughters Shauna and
Cheryl of Calgary.
Funeral service was held at Our Redeemer’s Lutheran
Church, Watrous, Sask. on November 16 conducted by
Rev. Colette Baker.
Honourary pallbearers were all those who knew him.
Shauna McCreary, Cheryl McCreary, Scott Uhmann,
Shaun Fossen and Tanys Uhmann were pallbearers. Register attendants were Fran and Maynard Fossen. Scott
Fossen and Fred Kahlert were ushers. Eulogy was given
by Scott Uhmann. Melanie Manson was organist.
Interment followed at Watrous Cemetery.

Health Foundation would be appreciated.

The answer is …. wait for it, wait for it …. NEWSPAPERS! Unbelievable?
In print and online, newspapers deliver more customers in seven days than
Google does in a month (126 million), according to Scarborough Research, 2013 R1.

CURLING
came away with a 9-6 victory. Since the format was triple
knockout, the loss moved the Tokarz rink to the B side.
Sitting at 2-0, Hanson headed into a game against Lorraine Schneider and her rink. Heading into the third, up
1-0, Hanson gave up three and then two in the fourth to fall
back 5-1. Schneider took another in the fifth and four in the
sixth to win 10-1. That bumped Hanson to the B side.
Draw seven Nov. 9 had Tokarz back on the ice facing
Kaitlyn Jones. Like the previous games, Tokarz’ rink started off with points early on, getting two in the first end.
Down 4-3, Tokarz would not score until the ninth when her
rink got two but it was not enough, losing 7-5. The loss put
Tokarz into the C division.
On the final day of the first qualifier, Hanson got back
on track in the B side as her rink led 5-2 after four ends
against Danielle Bertsch. Hanson added singles in the fifth
and sixth ends while Bertsch took one in the seventh. Up
7-3, Hanson scored three more in the eighth to win 10-3.
Tokarz also got rolling in draw eight with a big win
against Nicole Thompson and her team on the C side.
Tokarz scored one in the first, one in the fourth and another in the sixth to tie the game at three. In the seventh,
Thompson took one but Tokarz countered with two in the
eighth to take the lead 5-4. Thompson evened the match in
the ninth with one but Tokarz pulled out the win in 10.
Draw nine Nov. 10 had both rinks playing. Tokarz faced
Lisa Chambers and led 4-0 after two ends. After giving up
one in the third, Tokarz notched three in the fifth and added another three in the seventh to win 10-4.
Hanson, meanwhile, met Katherine Michaluk in the B
event final. With one more win needed to book her ticket to
provincials, Hanson took a 2-0 lead into the fourth end. Up 2-1
after four, Hanson added singles in ends five, six and seven
and then put two more on the board in eight to win 7-1. That
paved the way for the defending provincial champion to appear once again in the Saskatchewan event in late December.
Also hoping for a chance to qualify for provincials,
Tokarz met Michaluk who lost to Hanson in the previous
game. Tokarz stormed out of the gate with singles in the
first three ends to lead 3-0. Michaluk got one in the fourth
but Tokarz took it the rest of the way, winning 8-1.
With the victory, Tokarz joins Hanson as two of the four
teams from the first qualifier to move on to provincials.
For teams yet to qualify, the third and final event is being
held in Watrous this weekend. Four teams of those registered will advance to provincial play, joining eight others.
Chairperson of the event Sheryl Edwards said the event will
feature draws going from Friday evening through Sunday.

TOWN HALL MEETING
Over 200 people took part in the survey
and council agreed that a gym would be
useful in the community.
“I was pretty happy with the amount
of people who did (the survey).”
However, Peet said, “It can’t just be up
to me and can’t just be up to council, it has
to be up to the community as a whole (to
get it going).
“It was an important step but we are
still a ways away. We need to make sure we
get the right amount of people and likeminded people involved in this so we can
make sure and get it done.”
The next step in the process of getting
a local gym up and running is a town hall
meeting, which Peet said will take place
before the year is out. “I want as many
people there as possible. People can come
and voice their opinions even if they are
not in favour of the gym . . . the idea is
we have the town hall meeting, share our
ideas, talk about what we should do and
from that, I want to gather some people
who want to meet once a month or every
couple of weeks to help get a gym going.”
The recreation director stressed the
committee that will be formed from the
town hall meeting along with the public
will be really important not only in seeing
this project to fruition but also in keeping
it going once it is functional.
“I am happy that it is going the way it is.
I understand a lot of people have wanted
one for a while . . . I am happy that council
has been accommodating.”
