The prizes have been handed out in The Health Foundation’s $100,000 lottery. Grand prize win-ners Robert and Marlene Bartlett recently picked up their winnings. Marlene says that she did not actually believe they were the winners when they got the call. “When I answered the phone the lady said ‘you won $100,000’ and I said ‘you’ve got to be kidding, I don’t believe this...’ When I heard it on the radio I finally did believe I won something.” The plans for the money are simple, Marlene reveals. Their home on their farm needs a new heating system, and Marlene says that she also has her eye on a new stove. While retired from farming, she says the pair is happy where they are and they have no inten-tion of living anywhere

else. She adds, they have been buying foundation lottery tickets since the lottery began. “They’re for the hospi-tal, some day we may need the hospital, we use it whenever it is neces-sary and it is a very important lottery that people should buy into,” she says. Another big winner was Ann Bieber of Wolseley, who won the 50/50 draw and took home $21,165. Bieber says that she’s excited to get the money, and plans to share it with her family and take a trip to Hawaii. She says that the majority of it will be

put into savings, as she is planning to purchase a new house in the near future. “It’s exciting, and I’ll be sure to put the money to good use,” Bieber says. She also intends to con-tinue purchasing tickets into the future, as she believes The Health Foundation is a cause worth supporting.

Lotto winners awarded

HEALTH FOUNDATION LOTTERY winners Robert and Marlene Bartlett receive their cheque from Ross Fisher, executive director of The Health Foundation.

Cell phones wanted SaskTel has announced it has saved almost 50,000 cell phones from ending up in a landfill through its Phones for a Fresh Start program. Used wireless devices are being collected at SaskTel Stores and par-ticipating dealers across the province and the pro-ceeds are used to aid vic-tims of domestic abuse. SaskTel has partnered with the Provincial Association of Transition Houses and Services of Saskatchewan (PATHS) to provide cell phones and pre-paid cards to 19 wom-en’s shelters in the prov-ince. “Women fleeing abusive situations often leave with nothing,” says Don McMorris, Minister responsible for SaskTel. “Having a cell phone can mean so much. It can keep them in contact with invaluable family support or give them access to help in an emergency situation. SaskTel and the Govern-ment of Saskatchewan are proud to offer help to women in crisis when they need it most.” SaskTel has donated 235 phones to women’s shelters in 2012 including 80 phones in Regina, five in Melfort, 20 in Yorkton, 30 in Moose Jaw, 10 in Estevan, 10 in Weyburn, 10 in Carlyle, 15 in Saskatoon, 10 in Meadow Lake and 15 in La Ronge. A recent promotion nearly tripled the average number of phones donated in a month with a record of more than 2,400 col-lected from May 8 to June 15. Customers were given a $50 wireless bill credit if they donated a used wire-less device and purchased an eligible device. Anyone wanting to donate a used wireless device can do so at any of the 11 SaskTel Stores or participating dealers. You may also send your phone/device by Priority Post Courier. Simply take your phone to a Canada Post outlet and the Post Master will ship it to SaskTel at no charge.

Called the best sum-mer job in the world, the Saskatchewanderer’s duty is to explore the province and highlight the different attractions that Saskatchewan has to offer. The 2013 Saskatche-wanderer – Caitlin Taylor – was recently in

Yorkton and paid a visit to the Western Development Museum. Taylor says she applied for the job at the last minute, after seeing an advertisement on her Facebook feed two weeks before the end of the contest. She quickly put together a video and submitted her applica-tion. She got the job, and now has been wan-

dering the province, reporting back her expe-riences through blog-ging and social media. The job is something that has given Taylor a new perspective on the province, as she has the opportunity to travel from corner to corner experiencing the entire range of what it has to offer. “I liked Saskatchewan before, but now it is amazing to see how much there is to experi-ence. There are so many things to visit,” Taylor says. The people are the main attraction for Taylor she says, because she finds that their pas-sion for what they do is infectious. “The main highlight for me is meeting all of the really cool people who live in Saskatchewan, talking with them and having them share their story with me. When I went sailing, I talked to one of the instructors who is just so passionate about sailing, it was so great talking to him and learning what he loves doing,” she details. The geography of the province is another highlight, Taylor says, and she emphasizes that there’s much more to it than the flatter parts of the region. She says she finds it rich and varied, beautiful no matter where she vis-its. While the job is only for the summer, Taylor says she hopes that her eventual career is not too different from what she is doing now. “I have been thinking

of a career in journal-ism, so this is a good foot in the door for that. Getting more experience behind the camera and writing, this job is like my dream job, so having this experience can only help me do more things

like this in the future.” While she has the job, she encourages others t o b e Saskatchewanderers in their own way, and take in the different things the province has to offer this summer. She notes

that now is the time to travel, as the summer months are filled with different festivals and events. Those interested in following Taylor’s trav-els can visit saskatche-wanderer.ca.

Part of the project is being funded by the Saskatchewan Housing Corporation, which is contributing $50,000 to the build. It is part of a larger commitment of $2 million to build 40 Habitat homes throughout Saskatchewan. This build is also in partnership with Mosaic Potash

Corporation. Crook works at the Painted Hand Casino and Dr. Brass School, and many of her friends and coworkers have been supporting her and Habitat for Humanity. She says that their support is greatly appreciated, and she knows they will be a big part of not only her build, but future Habitat projects.

THE FOURTH BUILD for Habitat for Humanity Yorkton has officially begun with a sod turning ceremony. Pictured above are Dennis Coutts, CEO Habitat Regina, Greg Ottenbreit, Yorkton MLA, Shannon Crook, home recipient, Merv Catchuk, Yorkton Project Manager and Bob Maloney, Mayor of Yorkton.

“Saskatchewanderer” makes a Yorkton stop

HUNGRY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE! – The idea was born in Yorkton and it turned out to be a resounding success province-wide. On Wednesday, June 26, guests came from all corners of Saskatchewan to share in the inaugural – Boston Pizza Day for Camp Easter Seal. On that day BP’s Lounges donated 10 per cent of all sales for Camp Easter Seal. Politicians, including Mayor Bob Maloney (pictured above) from all levels of government came out to lend a hand to help support Camp Easter Seal by greeting and serving the guests through-out the day. In the end $40,000 was raised to help send Saskatchewan kids to summer camp. “The en-thusiasm and commitment of the Boston Pizza franchisees & staff and the Boston Pizza Foundation paired up with staff from the Saskatchewan Abilities Council and community celebrities has resulted in an incredible return for a fi rst time event. This partnership will help to ensure that children with disabilities will continue to benefi t from Camp Easter Seal free of charge. Thank-you to all who supported this fund-raiser.” says Saskatchewan Abilities Council – Yorkton Branch, Regional Director, John Denysek.

THE NEWS REVIEW

West Nile season has arrived...

That’s just plain insan-ity if you ask me. There are homeless, there are children going to bed hungry, people in need of proper medicare, those who can’t afford to go to the dentist and she is taking home over $60 million a year?!? How do we justify this in any way, shape or form? British news has just reported the Queen is set to get a raise – a five per cent increase this year, bumping her annual income up to a whopping 38 million pounds, which equates to more than $60 million! Call me nega-tive, call me bitter, but why on earth do we need this expense? What can this one woman be doing that could ever warrant her such luxuries? Aside from being born into it... Yes I get that’s she’s a “queen” and royalty but it all just seems a tad ridiculous to me in today’s day and age. The royal family, the extravagance of it all and the lowly peasants who serve them may have been the norm in the past, but what place does this really hold in today’s society? Things change and while it may be tough to “give the queen the boot” can we not at least start the process of weening down the amount of taxpayer dollars she and her

family get? The Crown’s Estate is reportedly a massive entity that records big profits every year, do WE have to fork over our hard earned dol-lars on top of that pile? It would be one thing if the money stack was being used for the good of “the kingdom,” but it’s being spent on fancying up royal housing, travel

expenses, clothing, entertainment, public appear-ances and the like. I just can’t imagine myself kicking back and enjoying such luxury on other people’s dimes, especially looking out my window seeing so many others struggling. If you ask me Prince Charles and his charmed wife Camilla should be out work-ing like the rest of us – what do they REALLY do? In a world with flooding, tornadoes, hunger, thirst, inadequate health care, economic turmoil – the list goes on – how can just one family be placed on a pedestal and catered to in such a way? What makes this okay? Maybe it’s time to get with the times and to share the wealth. Just because the rest of us weren’t born into it, doesn’t make us any less deserving of good and quality lives.

The way I see it...

After a largely sleepless night, spent trying in vain to get comfortable in the convection oven that is my upstairs bedroom, I have come to a startling realiza-tion: I don’t actually like summer very much. I know, someone will invariably say that I will be dreaming of the summer heat come winter, when everything is cold and frosty again. That’s actually not true though, because I don’t pine for the opposite of whatever weather it happens to be. The ideal sea-son is spring, because it has reasonable temperatures, lots of flowers, and the odd bit of light rain for tex-ture. It even smells nice. It’s nice, it’s a pleasant few months in between the deep freeze of winter and the scorching heat of the summer months. Summer, however, is the worst season. There’s often no escape from the heat. In winter, most build-ings are heated, plus we can wear sweaters, which are among my favorite garments. In summer, if you don’t have air conditioning, you have no respite. There are only so many layers that can be shed, even fewer if you want to go out in public. It is just heat, a heat that is difficult to impossible to actually escape. Homes are hot, the outdoors are hot, the car is even hotter than both of those, since it’s a more confined space. Everything is hot, I find I don’t actually enjoy that very much.

We have been tricked into liking summer, condi-tioned from our school age, because summer means no school. Everything is better when we don’t have to worry about teachers, homework, or getting up in the morning. We associate the season with good times, because that’s when we were able to go on vacations, have fun, and have leisure time. That association con-tinues into adulthood, because many of us go on to have kids, and it makes the most sense to go on vaca-tion when they are free anyway. So summer continues to be a season of leisure, it’s a time where it’s easiest to escape work and do the things we want to do, and would do more if we weren’t forced into going into the

office all the time. This isn’t to say that there’s nothing good about summer. If you like swimming it’s great, though part of that is because swimming happens to be one of the few ways to escape that all consuming heat. Also, lots of festivals happen in the season, because everybody is out and willing to take time off to attend. Then again, those festivals would probably work just as well in the spring or fall if those were the main vaca-tion months. I also enjoy the longer days, because something can get accomplished in the evenings, and one uses less power on lights. Every season has its ups and downs, summer just happens to have the most obnoxious down of all of them. It’s rare that you will have someone who admits that summer actually is not very fun at all. Personally, I don’t have kids, I don’t vacation in July and I haven’t been in school in years. So that positive association with the summer has steadily eroded. Instead, I asso-ciate it with heat, an all consuming and enveloping heat that is oppressive and robs me of a good night’s sleep. I connect it with getting into my car after a long day and needing to put the air conditioner at full tilt, just to make the drive home. It’s sweaty, dirty and doesn’t even smell nice. Summer is the worst season, I am eagerly anticipate everything cooling off in fall.

The summer season has finally arrived and as you are headed out to enjoy the great outdoors, the province is reminding residents to be careful when it comes to mos-quito bites. Saskatchewan residents are being advised to take precautions against West Nile Virus, as weath-er warms up and numbers of the Culex tarsalis mosquitoes that can carry the virus increase. Experts say the risk of West Nile Virus typically peaks from mid-July through August. The risk varies from year to year; it depends largely on the temperature and the amount of virus present in birds. You can reduce your risk of con-tracting West Nile Virus by: • using insect repellent contain-ing DEET; • wearing protective clothing;reducing time outdoors between dusk and dawn; • regularly cleaning and empty-ing containers that can collect water such as bird baths and eaves-troughs; • clearing yards of old tires and other items that can collect water; • ensuring rain barrels are cov-ered with mosquito screening or are tightly sealed around the down-spout; • keeping screens on windows and doors in good repair; and • keeping bushes, shrubs and lawns clear of overgrowth and debris. In 2012, West Nile Virus was detected in four people in Saskatchewan. None were hospi-talized as a result. While many believe it will “never happen to them,” it can and it does. Yet taking a few simple precau-tions can greatly reduce your risk. Enjoy the sunshine and be safe!

To the Editor:

As we all know, June 21 is the longest day of the year. That’s usu-ally a good thing, as we revel in the amazing amount of sunlight and perhaps enjoy a BBQ with friends to celebrate the summer solstice well into the night. But for Calgary, the longest day of the year was something altogether different. It was long, it was scary, and it was quite frankly unbeliev-able. Those of us who were evacu-ated woke to fi nd ourselves with family, friends or caring strangers and were trying to fi gure out how it had all come to this. It had been quick. Before we knew it, six com-munities had been evacuated, then 10, then we woke up to 25 commu-nities having to leave behind a life-time of work and memories. But it was a very local state of emergency. I heard it said there were two types of Calgarians dur-ing this crisis: victims and spec-tators. We evacuated up to very high ground in Southwest Cal-gary, Coach Hill. Up there it was a surreal environment. People go-ing about their daily business and shopping, with little to alert you to the fact Calgary was in crisis. Pubs and restaurants full of everyday Calgarians happily and normally enjoying the longest day of the year. Were they oblivious to the crisis playing out below them? No,

but it was still distant from their lives. Calgary is about 50 km from north to south. It’s a city of 1.1 mil-lion people. Less than one-tenth of them were evacuated, and so for many, barring the road and bridge closures and associated hassles in getting around the city, it was al-most a non-event. When it’s on the news, people are viewers but not actors. It reminded me of watching coverage of Hurricane Katrina in 2005. It’s no wonder some Calgar-ians needed to see it to believe it. We thought we had the rivers un-der control. We built the Bearspaw Dam, the Glenmore Reservoir and massive berms to help mitigate fl ood risk in Calgary. Some people refer to the fl oods of 1902, 1915, 1923, 1929, 1932 as evidence that Calgary has seen all this before, and that nothing in the realm of climate change is responsible for this latest disaster. My own community of Sunnyside is on the north bank of the Bow River, with a lovely view of the downtown core. The area last saw widespread fl ooding in 1932, but winter fl ooding continued until the 1960s when the formidable berms were built on the north bank of the Bow. After all that preparation, it just happened again, so I think we all suspect something other than bad weather and poor timing is afoot.

In Premier Alison Redford’s own words, the world changed on June 21. But, in truth, we had been warned and instead it had been quietly changing for many years. So what now? Weeks, months and years of clean up. Some soul-searching about a solid yet ignored fl ood mitigation report and a re-assessment of development on fl ood plains, especially in a major urban centre. And as much as politicians and developers tell us it’s safe to live so close to dangerous rivers, people may start making their own consumer decisions and property prices may plummet in affected areas. Riverfront property may not be as coveted and prestigious as it was before. Calgarians, and other Albertans, are known as a hardy and hearty bunch. You can see that by our re-solve to host the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth, the Calgary Stam-pede, come hell or high water. That will be a nice distraction from the stress and pain, but next year will we be in the same situation yet again? It’s a few days on from fl oodaged-don now, and everything in our lit-tle neighbourhood seems remark-ably back to normal. Except it isn’t. And it may never be again.

To the Editor:

It’s time to walk their path, and hon-our their sacrifi ce. This July, Operation Husky 2013, a non-profi t organization, will be travelling with hundreds of Ca-nadians to Sicily, Italy to commemorate the Canadian soldiers who contributed to the Sicilian campaign during World War II. This July, marks the 70th anniversary of 25, 000 Canadian soldiers embarking on the fi rst independent role for Canadi-ans in the Second World War. The Allied invasion of Sicily, known as “Operation Husky,” contributed to the liberation of Italy. More than 2,000 Canadian sol-diers were wounded and more than 500 died during the four-week campaign. To this day, these Canadian soldiers have received little recognition for their sac-rifi ce. Steve Gregory, founder of Opera-tion Husky 2013, leads the organization with hope to gain awareness for these Canadian soldiers. Canadians need to know about our his-tory, and our military history is a part of our contribution to the world. Brave Canadians paid with great sacrifi ce for the achievements this country has been built upon. What does it say about us as a country if we forget them? On July 10, Operation Husky 2013 will open the fi rst remembrance ceremony on the beaches of Pachino, Sicily. The ceremony will mark the beginning of the symbolic march from Pachino to Agira and will include the unveiling of a new memorial monument to the Cana-dian forces. The second ceremony will take place on July 30th at the Canadian War Cem-etery in Agira. There are 484 Canadians at rest on this site and Operation Husky 2013 plans to have one person in atten-dance for each of the graves. Partici-pants will be invited to stand graveside, representing a fallen soldier and an-swering in their place as a ceremonial role call is performed. In the evening an event will include a concert by the Sea-forth Highlanders in the main square at Agira which will re-create the famous broadcast made on July 30, 1943. Since 2006, the Museo dello Sbarco exhibit at Catania, a 20,000 square foot museum dedicated to the allied landing in Sicily, had no Canadian exhibit. On July 31st, the opening of the Canadian exhibit at the Museo dello Sbarco in Cat-ania will take place. The Canadian Am-bassador will be present at the event. A concert will be performed by Canadian pipers and historians will conduct pre-sentations. Participants will march for 21 days, planting personalized soldier markers, along the way, to honour each fallen Ca-nadian soldier. The maple leafs on each marker are handcrafted by students in Canada while the rest of the mark-ers are made by students in Italy. Each marker will bare its sponsor’s name. Canadians who want to make their mark can sponsor a personalized sol-dier’s marker by visiting operationhus-ky2013.ca After 70 years, it’s time their sacrifi ce was remembered.

Steve Gregory, founder of Operation Husky 2013.

Remembering Canada’s soldiers

Life in Calgary will never be the same

To the Editor:

The “Big Brotherhood” segment of “The Na-tional” on CBC on June 26, 2013, revealed that government secret ser-vice agencies have the comprehensive means to conduct surveillance on all individuals. Now

there can be no excuse for lack of government action on tax evasion. The Canadian Secu-rity Intelligence Service should put their access to communications traf-fi c to use in recovering the 7.8 billion dollars of tax revenue lost annu-ally (Postmedia News,

May 9, 2013) as a result of ultra rich Canadians using tax havens and tax loopholes. Privacy legislation and confi dentiality agreements can no lon-ger be used as an excuse to let tax evaders off the hook. Seven billion dollars

annually would go a long way towards helping fund infrastructure re-newal, social programs, reducing the defi cit, or help for victims of natu-ral disasters such as the recent fl oods.

William Dascavich,Edmonton, AB.

No excuse for lack of gov’t action on evasion

To the Editor:

The actions of the RCMP in High River, Alberta, is very dis-turbing in a free and democratic society. Using the fl ooding disaster as an excuse to break into private homes and removing private prop-erty is a criminal offence. This kind of behaviour one would expect from a common criminal. What sets Canada apart from third world dictators is the rule of law. This kind of behavior is a breach

of public trust. No one can break into your home and steal your property. No one can enter your home without a search warrant. No one can take your property without your permission. Just because the stolen property were fi rearms doesn’t make it right or legal. Why didn’t they take jewelry and electronics which are more valuable? In Manitoba many First Na-tions community homes were abandoned over the last few years due to fl ooding. Did the RCMP

break into these homes to rescue their fi rearms? I think the RCMP needs to re-think their role in a civil society. Wearing a uniform doesn’t give them a licence to break the law. I always thought their job was to serve and to protect the public. A judicial inquiry needs to Be called to investigate this incident in High River. Your elected offi -cial needs to hear from you on this matter.

Inky Mark, former MP,Dauphin, MB.

RCMP actions in AB are very disturbing

To the Editor:

As pundits debate whether the views of Ca-nadians have shifted to “the right” during the past seven years of politi-cal turbulence, many pub-lic opinion polls suggest Canada remains solidly anchored in “the centre” with strong, durable sup-port for such things as the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, multicultural diversity, and key social initiatives like medicare and pensions. The values that animate Canadian nation-building have been in the making for 146 years (not just the last seven), and what we have built together is a truly remarkable country. With our vast landmass, we are the second biggest nation on earth, span-ning fi ve distinct regions

across six time zones. We have fantastic geography and topography to admire and to challenge us from coast-to-coast-to-coast. We have a small, but complicated population, beginning with Aboriginal peoples, and then Norse and French and English explorers and settlers, and then wave-after-wave of enriching immigration. We now include every eth-nicity, colour and creed, two offi cial languages and many cultures – the diver-sity of the whole world – mixed together unevenly, not in a melting pot, but as an intricate mosaic, strung out sparsely along thousands of miles of American boundary. Out of such complex-ity, how have we forged our nation? It’s through the application, I believe, of those typical Canadian

values that have stood the test of time – never per-fectly, but by and large successfully. Like a sense of fair-ness and justice. A spirit of generosity. Compas-sion. Tolerance. Sharing. Open hearts and open minds. Pride in our vast diversity. We have prac-tised the art of creative compromise and accom-modation – to make room for each other, so the over-all result for all of us can be more, not less. We have always had the patient willingness to listen to each other. To reach out. To bridge dif-ferences. To try hard to understand one another. And once we have lis-tened and understood, Ca-nadians have always been prepared to take action with and for each other together. Not because it’s

in the self-interest of some comfortable majority. Not because we HAVE to. But because we WANT to. Canada is thus a tri-umph of the human spirit. We have been built and are held together, not by the force of law or the force of arms, but by our common will. And that kind of nation-building – the Canadian way – is a never-ending process. Canada is and always will be a precious “work-in-progress” that we dare not take for granted. Let’s recommit our-selves to those generous values that have shaped us, and renew our resolve to keep on building this wonderful country, in all of its complexity, always and forever, together.

Come summer, I enjoy sticking closer to home – close enough to spend time outdoors with fami-ly, including my young grandchildren. Carefree days, plenty of fresh air and outdoor fun – if you’re a child, that’s what summer should bring. Unfortunately, by choice many children will spend their summer inside in front of a televi-sion, video game or com-puter screen. On aver-age, kids are spending six hours a day in front of an electronic device. This is almost as much time as their parents spend at work. Children who develop healthy habits at an early age often continue to lead a healthy lifestyle into adulthood. However, today, most of them miss the mark. Statistics Canada reports that only seven per cent of Canadian youth get the recommended level of 60 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity per day. Childhood obesity in Canada has tripled over the past three decades. And sport participation rates for Canadian youth has steadily declined, dropping from 77 per cent in 1992 to 59 per

cent in 2005. Our government has worked hard to deliver initiatives to help kids get moving in order to stay fit and healthy. As part of our Economic Action Plan, we deliv-ered additional funding for ParticipACTION, an organization that deliv-ers community-based physical activity and fit-ness programs. We also created the Children’s Fitness Tax Credit to create more incentive for parents to enroll their children in physical activity. Through this tax cred-it, parents can receive up to $500 per child in tax relief against the costs of registration in approved physical activities, such as hockey, soccer or bal-let. In addition, our gov-ernment has partnered with provincial govern-ments and key, national sport leaders to renew

the Canadian Sport Policy, an initiative that supports the Canadian organizations who believe in the positive effects of sport and phys-ical activity in our coun-try. Our government believes in the benefits of sport, physical activity and recreation in Canada. Active living is impor-tant to the health and well-being of Canadians of all ages and abilities. I intend to enjoy a healthy, active summer – I hope you have the opportunity to do the same.

Summertime is here and chances are, outdoor BBQ grilling will play a part in bringing food to the table this season. Thus, I thought it would be beneficial to share with you a few ground rules for grilling that I believe will enhance your overall experience and quality of food. Rule #1 - Never Clean Your Grill. Now when I say “grill” in this case, I mean the cooking grates/grids themselves. The buildup of fallen food debris captured in the basin of the BBQ itself does need to be cleaned out periodically to pre-vent grease fires and to extend the life of the shell of your outdoor grill: these particles will collect moisture and thus eventually lead to deterioration. The grates/grids how-ever, should not be removed and scrubbed down in the sink with a scouring pad, for exam-ple. The only “cleaning” to the grates/grids should be simply with a wire BBQ brush. This will help build more of a non-stick surface through the natural seasoning of the cooking processes much like a cast iron fry-ing pan.

At the end of your cooking process, turn off the gas and let your BBQ cool as you normally would, then pack it away. When preparing for the next cookout, preheat your grill over high heat which will in turn transform the residual cooked on food to char that will be easi-ly knocked off with a good brushing. Rule #2 - Always Preheat. Ensuring your grill is extremely hot will not only burn off any residual food bits from your last cookout, it will also guarantee great crust formation (and grill lines) on your food. Why do we bother cooking food on a grill in the first place? The answer: Flavor. The crusting process is the caramelizing of the nat-ural sugars in the pro-teins (or added sugars) to create flavor. It is for this same reason that we don’t boil steaks; boil-ing steaks in water would still cook the meat, but they would be extremely lacking in fla-vor and texture. Rule #3 - Oil The Meat. Oiling the meat in advance will not only help to enhance the crusting process (and the resulting increase in

flavor), it will also assist in creating a non-stick environment. I always oil the meat before sea-soning with salt and pepper just prior to going onto a hot preheated grill. Rule #4 - Oil The Grates/Grids. In combi-nation of oiling the meat, this will also help in fla-vor creation and ease of release. Both of these oiling procedures should be done with an oil that has a high smoke point. This is not an applica-tion for your extra virgin olive oil. Grapeseed oil would be perfect, but a canola or vegetable oil will work fine. Oiling the grates/grids however should be done once they have been preheated. Protecting your hand with a grill mitt, dab some oil on a cloth and quickly, but efficiently, wipe down the hot grills. Be careful not to have the cloth soaking with

oil to the point that would cause flare-ups. A light coating of oil will work fine. This is the same pro-cedure you should prac-tice when cooking in a stainless steel (not non-stick) pan: preheat the pan first, and then add the oil, then the food. Rule #5 - Leave It Alone. Once the above four rules have been fol-

lowed and the meat has now been placed on the grill, the worst thing you could do is to prema-turely break that contact of meat with grill. Even with following the above rules reli-giously, the meat will stick... at first. Leaving it alone allows it to cre-ate a crust (grill marks) and thus helping to release it from the cook-ing surface. If you are following the rules above and your meat is stuck to the grill, chances are it is trying to tell you that it is not ready to be flipped yet. Although there are other important things to remember about out-door grilling, these are your ground rules that

should always be applied in any situation. However, since it is sum-mertime, my next col-umn will focus on more tips including using thermometers and will address the age old ques-tion: “lid open or closed?” Send your food/cook-ing questions to [email protected] or P.O.

Submitted by Kaare Askildt, former Preeceville area farmer in training. This one of a series on get-ting settled in Hazel Dell. We have a female Saskatchewan carpenter of Scottish heritage work-ing in our house at the moment. She’s originally from Garrick, Saskat che-wan. She doesn’t demand any paycheck, and that’s because she gets all the money I earn on my insur-ance consulting. I barely get to hold on to my book money; otherwise I wouldn’t be able to order up any more books! You have probably guessed by now that the carpenter in question is actually my wife! It is interesting to observe how she moves her tongue from one side of her mouth to the other, or just keep it steady dead centre, depending on the angle she’s cutting on the baseboards, or if it is a straight cut. However, anybody can tell that she’s not a real carpenter, as her annoy-ance utterances are still rather girlish, instead of the darn rough and gruff carpenter language! But I like it that way, it reflects in her attention to detail! I have been banned from the work area because she said I was affecting her thought process by just looking at what had to be done. “You don’t have to say it!” she said, “I know what you’re thinking! And it’s wrong!” she said as she ushered me out of the liv-ing room. “Hey! What the heck!” I said, “just because I put the cedar siding on upside down on a chicken coop at one time, doesn’t mean that I don’t know

what I’m doing!” Oh well! I must admit that she does good work! I have a bit of trouble moving around these days, but I made my way down the basement stairs to give Marion a hand with paint-ing the baseboards and the door trims white. I’m the man of the house, and I could not sit idly by and let my wife do all the work! Not only did I paint the door trims white, I also made a unique white striped criss cross pattern on the grey basement con-crete floor. Not that anybody other than ourselves and the occasional tradesman, such as an electrician or a plumber, would be able to see it, but to my wife’s Scottish way of thinking, it was a waste of good and expensive white paint! She gently helped me back upstairs and into my office. Put me in my nice com-fortable office chair, and strongly suggested that I keep working on my man-uscripts! I logged on to the com-puter, and brought up my latest story, which is this one. I got to thinking about how fast technology has developed in my lifetime. I remember being awed when the electric type-writer was made available, and now I sit here and type on a similar keyboard, but instead of printing on paper, it is displayed on a screen, and instead of using whiteout or correct tape, I just highlight the word and type over it! I mentioned this awesome technological development to an old farmer that had just got himself set up with a computer. In fact it was a very old computer, a 486 that he had inherited

from his grandson. He had the following definitions of the new computer lingo: Log On: Put a log in the wood stove. Log Off: Log rolled off the cradle. Monitor: Keep an eye on the wood stove. Download: Gettin’ the firewood off the pickup. Mega Hertz: When yer not careful downloa-din’ (watch th’ toes!) Floppy Disk: Whacha get from pilin’ too much fire-wood. RAM: The hydraulic thingy that makes the woodsplitter work. Hard Drive: Drivin home on

black ice. Data: Get to take a girl to the dance. Update: Same girl to a second dance. Prompt: What you wish the mail was in a snow storm. Windows: What to shut when it’s 30 below. Font: Birdbath. Screen: What you need for fly and mosquito season. Byte: What horse flies and mosquitoes do. Megabyte: What deerflies do. Chip: Whatcha get when you chop wood. Micro Chip: What’s left when you’ve picked up the chips. Modem: What you did to

the hay fields. Printer: Someone who can’t write in cursive. Lap Top: Where little grandchildren feel comfy. Keyboard: Where you hang your keys. Software: Them plastic eatin’ utensils. Tower: Lookout. Satellite: Sputnik. Mouse: What eats the horses’ grain in the barn. Main Frame: The part of the barn that holds the roof up. Port: Fancy wine. Enter: C’mon in! Digital: Like those numbers that flip on your alarm clock. Laser:

Someone less ambitious than you. Program: What’s on TV. Google: Staring at her through a pair of gog-gles. Server: Wife. User: Neighbour. Switch User: My neighbour lends my seeder to my other neigh-bour. Firewall: Wall behind the wood stove. Memory: Song by Barbara Streisand. Refresh: Wash up. Password: Word spo-ken while passing wife in the hallway. Microsoft: My grandchild’s really soft teddy bear. Bill Gates: Who?

The farmer is trained, moves on and settles in

Effective July 1, 2013 the Sunrise Health Region has an-nounced it is launching its “Respect the Boundaries” tobacco free initiative. Use of all tobacco products will now be prohibited in health facilities, on grounds and in parking lots. “Our vision is working together... for healthy people in healthy communities,” says President and CEO Suann Laurent. “Re-search indicates that smoking and tobacco products have many negative impacts on health and we are committed to promoting a healthy lifestyle for everyone in our region.” Clients, visitors and staff will be required to leave health re-gion property to use tobacco products. Inpatients will be required to sign a waiver before leaving the property, should they choose to continue using tobacco products while in the care of a health facility. Previous exceptions for long-term care residents will continue to apply. Hospital inpatients will have the opportunity to access tobacco cessation products during their stay in a Sunrise Health Region facility. Education and options will be provided at the time of admission. A variety of supports are available for individuals who wish to quit tobacco products, including: Visit www.sunrisehealthregion.sk.ca, www.breakitoff.ca, www.makeapact.ca, www.cancer.ca for extensive information on quitting tobacco products. Sunrise Health Region has one of the highest averages of smoking rate in the province at 21.7 per cent.

It looks like we have summer! Wow, it was a long time coming! Good Spirit Acres’ annual pancake breakfast was held at the camp kitchen in Spilchen Meadows at the begin-ning of June. In spite of the weather, we had a very good turn-out of people and we managed to stay dry and warm, thanks to Ed and Elaine Park contributing and installing some construction plastic to keep out the wind and rain on the north side of the building. Thanks Parks! We are sorry to hear that Jim and Maureen Rediger will be leaving our community. Jim will begin working at the Credit Union head office in Brandon at the begin-ning of Aug. I understand they will be returning to GSA for retirement in a few years. In the meantime, Jim will also be missed on the Hamlet Council. Good Luck Jim and Maureen and see you in a few years! There is good news for the Good Spirit Acres Rest-aurant… Mary Lazurko is the new restaurant chef and the restaurant will be open Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 7:30 to 4:30 p.m. for the summer.

Seniors golf on Tuesday and Thursday mornings at 9:30 a.m. We enjoy having some of the “younger than senior” age group join us! So don’t be shy… we golf for fun! Come early to get on a team! The seventh annual Sandie Cripps Golf Tournament for Breast Cancer will be held on July 27. You can enter your name and pick up pledge sheets at the club house or from Bill Cripps at 306-792-4690. Mary Hearn, who now lives in London, ON. was in Yorkton in June and she was so pleased to have some of her friends from GSA join her for lunch. She said thanks to Gilda, Linda, Geri, Willie, Mickey, Adella, Bev, Florence, Gladys and Carol for making her feel so spe-cial and bringing back memories of when she lived here. The Good Spirit Market has started their summer

CANADA DAY WEEKEND BASEBALL was served up at Jubilee Park Highway 10 style as the Cardinals hosted the Millionaires in the second game of a three game series over the long weekend. Melville took all three games in the series.

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer

It was a Canada Day long weekend that started out brilliantly for the Yorkton Cardinals quest to reach the WMBL Playoffs for the fi rst time in a half decade. After a loss to Swift Cur-rent to open up the week-end, the Cardinals bounced back to beat the Indians the following night before scor-ing a huge win over their East Division rival Wey-burn Beavers to earn some breathing room from last place in the division. Coming next would be a three game series with the Melville Millionaires who despite being fi rst in the East ahead of the Regina Red Sox, had a losing record against the Cardinals head-ing into the start of their se-ries on Sunday.

After quality starts from Shaniel Rivera and Jeff Pool led the Cardinals to two straight wins to start off the weekend, the Cardinals rotation fell apart against Melville allowing 36 runs over three games against the Millionaires. Melville would open up the annual Canada Day se-ries on Sunday with a night game at Pirie Field. After Melville opened the scoring in the third, the Cardinals exploded in the top of the fourth off of RBI’s from Kevin McLeod and Sergio Perez in a three run inning to take an early 3-1 lead with Matt Bowles on the mound. Bowles ended up wasting the lead, as the Millionaires rocked Bowles in the bottom of the inning to take back a 4-3 lead before chasing him from the game in the sev-

enth after he allowed seven runs to the Millionaires on 12 hits. RJ Page didn’t fare better in relief, allowing two runs as Jose Fortuna and Casey Coyle’s home runs led the Millionaires to a 9-3 win to open the series. With the loss the Cardinals two game winning streak was snapped and any hope of winning the three game series and gain-ing some ground on the Mil-lionaires in the East rested on a win at Jubilee Park on Canada Day as the WMBL crossed the halfway point. With David Toth on the mound for the Cardinals things were looking up early as three straight scoreless innings from Toth and a sac-rifi ce fl y from Meany had the Cardinals starting off well with a 1-0 lead headed into the fourth inning at Jubilee Park.

From then on there it was all Millionaires as the Mel-ville bats were rolling on Canada Day. To the tune of 15 hits the Millionaires sent Toth to the dugout after just fi ve in-nings. Three runs apiece in the fourth and fi fth were fol-lowed by two in the sixth and a whopping fi ve runs in the seventh to add up to a 13-1 drubbing as the Cardinals were embarrassed on Cana-da Day by some hot swinging from their hated rivals. Aaron Dick and Chris Es-trada were left out to dry by manager Bill Sobkow in relief as Estrada allowed fi ve runs in getting just one out in the seventh inning as the Mil-lionaires piled it on to wrap up the series and set up the potential sweep on Tuesday night in Melville.

Cardinals swept by Millionaires

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer It was a golden week-end for the Yorkton United Football Club as the U-18 team took gold after losing in last year’s Saskatchewan Provincial Final in penalty kicks with a 2-1 win over Swift Current in the fi nal over Canada Day long week-end. The U-18 squad opened up the weekend with a scorch-ing start, scoring a 2-1 win over Moose Jaw before going through two setbacks in the group stage that aimed to derail their title hopes. A 3-1 loss to Moose Jaw was followed by a score-less Nil-Nil draw to UCT that put the United’s record through three games at 1-1-1. Losing 3-1 before fail-ing to score in the follow-ing game, the United squad needed to bounce back in a

huge way entering the fi -nal game of the round robin against Regina Unidad. With just four points in three games, the U-18’s needed a win to have a chance to fi nish fi rst or sec-ond in the round robin to play in the fi nal. Luckily Yorkton put in a tidy defensive performance in the must win round robin fi nale to secure a one-nil win over Unidad and ad-vance to the fi nal where they would be faced against the Swift Current side that handed them their only loss of the tournament 3-1 in the round robin. In the fi nal the tables would be turned as the young Yorkton squad learned from their mistakes in the round robin and played to the mo-ment when everything was on the line, putting in a full ninety minute effort to take home the provincial gold

with a 2-1 win. The win gave the United club its second U-18 title

in three years winning the gold in 2011 before losing in penalty kicks in 2012.

YUFC U-18 BOYS took home Saskatchewan provincial gold with two round robin wins and a 2-1 win over Swift Current in the final.

By CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer With another school year over, the Yorkton Regional High School finished up another year of their Athlete of the Month awards rec-ognizing the best Raider athletes in their respec-tive sports as well as in the classroom. The award, handed out to a male and female award winner each month, aims at recognizing students from all of the many YRHS sports teams with winners from curl-ing, archery, and bad-minton teams in addi-tion to the tradition sports of football, vol-leyball, basketball and track. To be Athlete of the Month a student needs to excel as a teammate as well as a student in being a positive exam-ple of a Raider in the community. For the past three years the YRHS Athlete of the Month program has been sponsored by Yorkton’s Cab Clothing.

Each student who wins the award is given a Athlete of the Month crewneck from Cab as well as gift certificate for the store. For shop owner Brennan Wiens, the partnership between Cab and local schools (Cab Clothing also sponsors Sacred Heart’s Athlete of the Month) just makes sense. “We get a lot of our business from students of the local schools and being two young men who have started a business in Yorkton and have made it our home after ten years it is a no brainer to give back to the community when a good opportu-nity arises and the Athlete of the Month sponsorship is just one of those ideas that we have really embraced supporting,” says Wiens. Given Cab’s appeal to an active lifestlye through skateboarding and snowboarding and the YRHS’ teaming up with the store during the City of Yorkton’s

Aviva Community Fund campaign for the skatepark in the past, the shop and local school’s have formed a good relationship through recent years. “We like to promote an active lifestyle because we feel it is an impor-

tant part of keeping our youth healthy and if we can donate a little bit towards local sports and promote that fur-ther it is even better so we will likely be con-tinuing this partner-ship in the future,” closes Wiens.

School has finished at the YRHS as has their athletic schedule for 2012-13, class will resume in a couple of

months as will the ath-letic calendar with the start of football pre-season camp in late August.

YRHS, Cab Clothing team up for Athlete of the Month

YORKTON REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETES OF THE MONTH for 2013/14 pose for a picture with Cab Clothing owners Aaron Kienle and Brennan Wiens who sponsor the school program to recognize the best student athletes in various YRHS athletic programs.

Trying desperately to avoid the sweep at the hands of the Millionaires, the Cardinals bats came to life on Tuesday night. Three runs batted in from Kevin McLeod as well as two RBI nights from Justin Burgess and Nick Gallipeau led the Cardinals to a huge 9-1 lead for Anthony Martinez to work with. Down 9-1, the Millionaires chipped into the Cardinals massive lead in the fifth with a three run inning to move the score to 9-4. With a five run lead, the Cardinals should still have been safe with just nine outs between them and avoiding a sweep in the Highway 10 battle. Still Melville’s hot bats had owned the Cardinals all weekend and in the final game of the series it was no different as the wheels fell off for the Cardinals in the late innings as Melville exploded for seven runs in the bottom of the sixth inning, wasting no time in taking back the lead. Shellshocked and now down 11-9, the Cardinals rallied quickly as McLeod earned an RBI single in the seventh to make it 11-10 and give the Cardinals some momen-tum after blowing a mas-sive lead. With the game back within reach, Mike Meany cranked a solo jack out of Pirie Field in the eighth to tie up the ballgame at 11-11 in what was turning into a wild finale of the three game set.

In the bottom of the inning, Jose Fortuna put any hopes of a Cardinals rally to bed with a two run home run following up Tyler Enns RBI single to give the Millionaires a 14-11 win in what was at one point a sure win for the Cardinals who blew an opportunity to go a full game up over the Weyburn Beavers who also lost on Tuesday night. The sweep puts the Cardinals at 9-16 and four games back of the Millionaires who are firmly in first place in the WMBL’s East Division after the half-way point in the regular season. Melville sits atop of the division at 13-12 while Regina is in second with a record of 11-13 and Yorkton holds the final playoff spot in the division with their 9-16 record putting them just a half game ahead of the 8-16 Weyburn Beavers who the Cardinals beat twice in the past week. At the halfway point of the season the favorites in the WMBL reside in the West Division as the league’s two best teams are battling it out in a tight division pennant race heading into July. Sitting atop of the league are the Medicine Hat

Mavericks with a 21-3 record putting them 2.5 games ahead of the 18-5 Okotoks Dawgs in what is sure to be a tight race in the West Division as the season winds down. In other WMBL news, the Cardinals Kevin McLeod was named WMBL Player of the Week. McLeod is batting .333 with one home run, 17 RBI’s and nine stolen bases and is one of the Cardinals best hitters compiling 33 hits over 24 of the Cardinals 25 games this season. McLeod is a Canadian residing in Surrey,

British Colombia and plays his college ball for Lewis and Clark State. Next for the Cardinals are three crucial games with the Red Sox and Millionaires before the Okotoks Dawgs come to Jubilee Park for a two game set before the Cards close the home-stand with a big game against the Weyburn Beavers. Yorkton is staying afloat in the playoffs heading into July, but at 9-16 going into the final month, a winning season might not be in the cards.

Despite sweep, Cardinals still in playoff hunt

With the Canada Day long weekend over and a busy sports week that saw the end of the Stanley Cup, the CFL’s opening weekend, Aaron Hernan-dez’ arrest and the NHL Draft it is time to bring back everyone’s favorite self-proclaimed favorite column, Ruttig’s Rants: Rapid Fire Edition. In honor of Canada Day, we start off with the CFL’s opening week-end where stuff appar-ently happened. Montreal beat Winnipeg on the grand opening of Win-nipeg’s new Investors Group Field, the defend-ing Grey Cup champion Toronto Argonauts over-came Henry Burris and the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and the Calgary Stam-peders beat down the B.C. Lions 44-32 at McMahon Stadium. In CFL news I actually paid attention to, the Roughriders beat the Eskimos as expected 39-18 in Edmonton to start off their much hyped 2013 campaign as Grey Cup hosts. This is the part of the CFL season I invest my-self in the most as every sport besides baseball is in its main offseason, but with an 18 game schedule and two bye weeks any-

thing that happens in the summer in the CFL ends up being irrelevant, Canada Day weekend was a very entertaining opening weekend for the CFL as usual, but once there are other options on the television I will stick to my once a week maximum dose of the CFL for Rider games until the playoff chase heats up and games ac-tually mean something. In NFL offseason news, Aaron Hernandez of the New England Pa-triots was arrested after a week long stakeout of his house in investigation of the murder of semi-pro football player Odin Lloyd. Hernandez handed the investigators a broken cell phone and home sur-veillance tapes that led to him becoming the number one suspect in the case. Much has been made of “The Patriot Way” over the years as New Eng-land prides themselves on being a high charac-ter organization, but this just goes to show you that the NFL’s arrest problem goes beyond the control of the league’s franchises. In baseball the To-ronto Blue Jays went on their annual pre-July hot streak over the past

month, fi nally climbing over .500 for the fi rst time all year and temporar-ily getting everyone back on the bandwagon before the Jays lost two straight series to AL East rivals Tampa Bay and Boston. The good news for Jays fans: Jose Reyes is back and we will all get to see a lineup that was supposed to be the best in baseball fi nally back to nearly full health. The bad news for Jays fans: the only thing that slightly above .500 is going to get you in the AL East this year is last place. Baltimore, Tampa Bay, New York and Boston are simply just too good for the Blue Jays as inju-ries have taken key play-ers out of the mix and Mark Buehrle has made it his mission to be one

of the worst veteran ac-quisitions of 2013 on the mound. Toronto still has a shot of making the play-offs thanks to their win streak, but those two glo-rious two weeks in June may likely go down as the only positive of the mon-eybag Blue Jays season. It was teenagers in suits week for the NHL and the NBA as the two leagues hosted their annual drafts the past week. The NBA’s quick two round event was highlighted by one of the weakest draft classes in recent memory, creat-ing a lot of crazy trades and unpredictable selec-tions. Among them was the fi rst overall selection of Canadian Anthony Bennett from UNLV by Cleveland. Bennett will now join Canadian Tristan Thomp-

son in Cleveland, but will now also face the burden of being the fi rst overall pick out of nowhere. Ben-nett is a solid post player and played well for a Runnin’ Rebels team that made the tournament, but any college basket-ball fan will tell you that he was nowhere near be-ing the best prospect in hoops this past season . Canadians can be ex-cited that the growing youth movement in Can-ada Basketball is arriving early with the fi rst overall pick, but everyone should be more excited to see Andrew Wiggins at Kan-sas next season if we are awaiting the revolution of basketball in Canada. In hockey news the NHL Draft was one of the more loaded drafts in recent memory and the Colorado Avalanche opted to go with the best avail-able of many highly tout-ed “can’t miss” prospects on the board in selecting Nathan MacKinnon of the Halifax Mooseheads with the #1 overall selection. MacKinnon was clearly the best player in Junior hockey over the past sea-son, and his dominance over a Memorial Cup fi eld in Saskatoon that includ-ed top fi ve picks Jonathan

Drouin and Seth Jones, who many thought would be the top pick given Jones connections to the city through his dad Popeye, who played for the NBA’s Denver Nuggets. Every team who picked in the top four is likely going to get a player who is going to come in and produce right out of junior next season, and the Nashville Predators will come out as the hugest winners in stealing what many con-sidered to be the top pick of the draft in Jones at the fourth spot. Still the biggest talking point leaving the weekend was the trade of Corey Schneider to the New Jer-sey Devils in exchange for the ninth pick of the draft by the Vancouver Canucks. After shopping Roberto Luongo for the better part of a year, the Canucks decided that they would get better bang for their buck in dealing Sch-neider and ending up get-ting Bo Horvat a highly regarded center for the OHL Champion London Knights out of the deal. Heading into a new direction the Vancouver Canucks fi nally can move past the circus they cre-ated. A new era on draft day, a day full of new life.

Rapid Fire Rants: Canada Day weekend leftovers edition

Rider Report: Geroy Simon plans to return for home opener FridayBy CHASE RUTTIGN-R Writer Each week of the CFL season, The News Review Sports will recap the week that was in Rider Nation as well as preview the upcoming week’s action in a weekly segment called Rider Report.

After a 39-18 beat down of the Edmonton Eskimos in Edmonton to start the 2013 CFL season, the Saskatchewan Roughriders will know that their opponent for Week Two will be much tougher as the Calgary Stampeders come to town. Losing 36-30 in the West Division Semifinal last year to the Stampeders, the Riders still have a blood feud with their Alberta rivals that dates back to Henry Burris’ betrayal of the Riders for the Stamps that should be carried over in full force in a playoff rematch to open the season at Taylor Field/Mosaic Stadium. With Calgary winning 44-32 over the B.C. Lions to open their season, a game that will be an early test to see who is the favorite in the West Division is on deck for Friday Night Football in Week

Two. With high stakes on the line and high expectations for the home opener, head coach Corey Chamblin is hoping for the return of his prized veteran pick up over the offseason to give the Riders an extra boost as Geroy Simon is still listed as day to day heading into the final two days before the Riders home open-er. Still, the veteran plans to play, telling the Leader Post on Wednesday that as of right now he plans to play. “If I’m ready to play, I’ll play. If not, then I won’t, (but) right now, I’m planning on playing,’’ said Simon. It’s one of those things that you have to take day by day and we’ll make that decision when the time comes. I don’t think that anyone is 100 per cent at this point of the season after one game and train-ing camp. I feel good, fast and explosive. We just have to wait and see how I react after (today) and the day after.’’ Simon’s return will be needed as the Riders released import wideout Greg Carr this week. Carr had his best game as a Rider in the West Semifinal last year, hauling in 70 receiving yards and two touchdowns in the loss.

Darian Durant did fine leading the Riders offense without Simon in Week One, but everyone knows that the Stampeders are going to be a much more difficult test than the lowly Eskimos, who are pro-jected to miss the playoffs this season, making Simon’s return one of the keys to the Riders chances of starting off the season 2-0. Calgary’s rushing attack will be something that Richie Hall will need to gameplan for as defensive coordinator for the Riders as Jon Cornish rushed for 172 yards and two touchdowns in Week One. Cornish is one of the most hated players of Mosaic Stadium after his infamous “mooning” incident and the battle between the Roughriders front line and linebackers and Cornish and the Stampeders offensive line will be a key matchup in Friday night’s game. After starting off the season with a win on the road the Riders are looking at the return of the man brought in to help lead them to the Grey Cup to come back for the home opener in a potential West Division Final preview. If the Riders can get Simon in the lineup, they will be set for revenge on Calgary on Friday night.

It has taken several months but Yorkton’s only Dry Cleaners, York Sask Dry Cleaners and Shoe Box Accounting are back in their original locations.Both locations are better than ever and ready to serve the community as they have for many many years.Doug and Loreen Poier and their staff at York Sask have put in countless hours to recover from the devastating fi re which caused their closure these past many months.Now they want to encourage all their clients and friends to drop in have a quick peek and bring in their dry cleaning to their facility on 1st Ave North in the YBID.Also lost in the fi re was a new store front business to the YBID, Shu-Box Accounting. Owner operator Sherry Shuman had just opened her doors for a few months when the fi re forced her from the adjoining space. She was able to work both from home and some loaner space from the Yorkton Business Improvement District to keep things going. Now she is back on track and operational. Sherry is very excited about her refurbished surroundings but never wants to go thru such a situation again.On behalf of the YBID Board of directors and our members we want to welcome both busi-ness back and tell them we appreciate their being a part of our business community.
