Police were called to a domestic disturbance at a home in Rapid City at 10 p.m. on February 21st. Th e situation developed into a standoff , with RCMP closing off all

roads leading to the home due to potential threat of fi rearms. At 6:30 a.m. on February 22nd, parents of local school children were notifi ed that the school would be closed

that day. Th e school was used as a command post for the RCMP. Th e victim left the residence and was treated in hospital and then released. At 10:30 a.m. on February 22nd, a 34-year-old man was arrested without incident and charged with assault causing bodily harm.

Minnedosa shows up in one of the few ex-

amples of countries agree-ing to work together on an environmental concern. In the early nineties, wa-terfowl populations were dropping. Th e North Amer-ican Waterfowl Manage-ment Plan was created to examine the issue, which turned out to be mainly caused by loss of habitat. Th e partnership arranged for funds to be accessible to Canadian organizations and local chapters active in waterfowl conservation work like the Manitoba Heritage Habitat Corpora-

tion, Ducks Unlimited and Nature Conservancy of Canada. Stephen Carlyle of the Manitoba Heritage Habitat Corporation (MHHC) says that this year, the organiza-tion applied for $600,000 of these dollars to protect wetlands through instal-lation of nest tunnels and other duck infrastructure, and that one of their fo-cuses for investment will be the Minnedosa area. With our landscape of potholes, we are a duck metropolis. Investments like this are good news for local out-fi tters who host mostly American duck hunters in the three to four week

hunting season every year. Minnedosan Barry Good hosts clients from Florida, Texas, Tennessee, Minne-sota, and Illinois; most of whom make the trip annu-ally. He estimates that these guests spend an average of $2000 per week on lodging, food, fuel, and supplies. “In the fall, Minnedosa hotels are booked from last week of September to the start of November for duck hunt-ing. And we don’t have ducks without the nesting and breeding cover for wa-terfowl.” Bryan Mackie owns and operates Manitoba Waterfowler, an outfi t-ting company based out

of Brandon. He estimates that there are 10- 15 out-fi tters that bring clients to the Minnedosa area, but it’s impossible to know how many hunters come up every year, since many come on their own and don’t hire a guide. Mackie says a consequence of duck hunting popularity here is that sometimes, Ameri-cans compete with local guides by taking on the role of outfi tters, even though they are not eligible for an outfi tting licence in the province. Paul Turenne of the Manitoba Lodges and Outfi tters Association says it’s a problem that he hears about a lot. “It’s defi nitely

something that happens. We know the government is aware of it as well.” Mackie reports displac-ing an operator from the US by off ering the landowner the operator was working with more for renting the land. But this isn’t a solution to the problem, and lowers his profi ts. He hopes more can be done. Due to time constraints, a provincial spokesperson was unable to report how many guides were operating without a licence last year. However, they did say that Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship takes these types of violations seriously and will investigate any al-

legations of this nature in the Minnedosa area. Th e department also regularly undertakes both general and undercover investiga-tions to ensure compliance. Penalties for an individual found guilty of an off ence are a fi ne of not more than $10,000, or imprisonment for a term of not more than six months, or both. Penalties for any corpora-tion found guilty of an of-fence are a fi ne of not more than $20,000. Th ey encourage any-one aware of noncompliant activity to make a report to their local district offi ce or call the provincial tip line at 1-800-782-0076.

Making the most of a Duck Metropolis

Continued from Page 1

Th e guys will fi nd out mid march whether all their work has paid off . Roche says there are four less spots on the national team than players practic-ing right now, so they are still vying for a place. Head coach Mike Shelley says playing in BC where a winter season is possible is really important for producing strong play-

ers. To compete, they need at least 25 hours of qual-ity training, and he’s doing his best to build in more opportunities. Over the last three years of his time with Rugby Canada, he’s managed to help change the age grade structure. Th e organization has gone from having a gap between their U17 and U20 to iden-tifying players at 16 and 17 years of age, and then providing them with two

years of training programs to help get them ready for international level compe-tition. Still, two players of Galbraith and Roche’s cali-bre isn’t a bad strike rate for a community of 2,500 people, and this, without a lot of contact between Rugby Canada and folks in Minnedosa. Shelley says Roche is part South African so that might have something to do with it, but fi gures there must be something else going on. “I hope there’ll be another two players a year (from Minnedosa) after these.”

The Western Canadian Holistic Management

Conference fi lled up the George P. Buleziuk Centre in Russell, MB on Febru-ary 12th and 13th. Holis-tic Management is a farm practice that supports goal setting and planning to-wards every aspect of life on the farm with an eye to-wards long term effi ciency and sustainability. An ele-ment of holistic manage-ment that many people are familiar with is grazing planning, which involves grazing cattle on smaller portions of land and mov-ing them regularly as a way to build plant diversity and soil quality over time. Glen and Dorothy Campbell run a cattle op-eration and bed and break-fast outside of Onanole.

Glen took the holistic man-agement course six years ago when he noticed his pastures had a lot of bare spots and weren’t produc-ing very well. He says that now with managed bale and swath grazing, moving the cattle every fi ve days, and leaving each paddock a full year between graz-ing, his pastures have in-creased production by a full bale an acre. Another part of holistic management the Camp-bells appreciate is the community aspect. Part of the holistic management course is that participants are encouraged to form lo-cal groups to meet month-ly and exchange ideas. Th e Russell group the Campbells participate in was particularly helpful a few years back when Glen

experienced health chal-lenges. “Th ey helped with the cattle, fencing and cor-ral work, vaccinations and castrations. It’s because of the group that we are still in the business.” When asked whether the practice makes fi nan-cial sense, Campbell jokes: “Well maybe we’re not get-ting ahead, but we’re get-ting behind slower.” Ian and Barb Th orlei-fson of Minnedosa have been growing cattle and elk since the 80s. Most of their animals are grown in partnership with the Kee-seekowenin First Nation, on or land rented from them. “We’ve read Don Campbell’s articles in the Cattlemen magazine for many years, and the ho-listic management group just seemed to have a good

vision for the future,” said Ian. Th e Russell event was the fi rst holistic manage-ment event they have at-tended. “Th ey were very persuasive about leav-ing litter on the land. I’ve always been a big fan of burning to clear land. But burning strips the litter layer off , and you lose so much moisture and organ-ic matter as a result. When you stop burning stubble, you start to reap the re-wards two or three years down the road.” Like the Campbells, Barb was impressed with how working with other farmers can result in more people meeting their goals. Speaking about a presenta-tion from the Belmont ho-listic management group from the Red River Valley, she said “Th ey’ve got ba-bies all the way to grand-parents involved and what they have developed is re-markable! Th ey are small farmers, and have worked out how to have enough money and be happy, and have the possibility of their children farming as well. One farm has a meat shop which the son runs, and they direct market meat to Winnipeg. Th ey raise everything from chickens to ducks. Th ey want to do thing that are right for the land and right for them.” For Ian, the cumulative impact of farmers adopting

more holistic management is appealing given current concerns about climate change, saying, “We have no choice but to invest in the future.” He attended a land management work-shop with Blain Hjertaas of Redvers, SK. Hjertaas explained that land man-agement practice can pull carbon out of the atmo-sphere through healthier, fuller, more diverse plant growth. Doing so has also tripled production on his cattle operation over the past 10 years. While oppo-sition to land management sometimes has to do with concerns about overgraz-ing, or eating a plant until it is too damaged or dead, Hjertaas emphasizes that overgrazing is a matter of the time cattle spend close to a plant, not the number of animals present. For him, proper attention will encourage better plant growth.

For Hjertaas, better soil also means food that is more nutrient dense. For all the benefi ts, Hjertaas says the holistic manage-ment is surprisingly sim-ple. “We’re so used to the big tech fi x. When there’s no tech involved, we think there’s a problem.” But on his operation, he spends 30 minutes a day moving the cattle. Th e rest is spent on other farm chores, and doing education work. “You know, conventional farming takes six calories of petroleum to produce one calorie of food and it continues to erode bil-lions of tonnes of soil ev-ery year.” For him, holistic management is about ef-fi ciency, and building soil rather than taking it away. “I think most farmers are trying to be good stew-ards of the land. But I don’t think we’ve understood it particularly well, and I think we need to do better.”

Hello Minnedosa and Tribune readers. Wel-

come again to Cops’ Cor-ner. Let’s dive in and have a look at the life and times of local RCMP as of lately. Th ere were 36 calls for service this time around; only several less then the last paper article. A high priority fi le occurred in Rapid City last Th ursday as I am sure many of you saw in the news, or in Brandon papers. Police worked around the clock on a domestic as-sault. It was reported that the male had many fi re-arms in the house. Proper caution was used, and the female got out of the house safely and was transported to hospital. Th e Emergen-

cy Response Team from Winnipeg attended and the male was successfully arrested without incident and charged with assault with a weapon, and vari-ous fi rearms charges. He was taken to Brandon Cor-rectional. Another local male was arrested for Break and Enter when found by police inside the Corner-stone Grill. He was duck-ing behind the counter as police entered the build-ing shouting commands. Safe to say he was caught red handed with tools to get into the building as well. He was charged and released with a court date. It was brought to my attention by a concerned

citizen, that a local vehicle sped by a funeral proces-sion one day in town. Th e complainant on the call did not obtain the license plate so no charges were given. If the driver of that vehicle is reading the pa-per this week, and for any-one else not aware, please be respectful in such mat-ters. Be patient and wait for the procession to fi n-ish. Be aware of road con-ditions changing with the nice weather. Yes, it’s won-derful with the sun all day long, but be aware that at night, when temperatures drop, it can leave roads with an icy layer on top. Exercise caution... that’s what I am suggesting. Last, but not least, I would like to announce this week’s speeder of the week. As many of you know, there is construc-tion occurring on Highway #10 on the way to Brandon. Construction areas have signs announcing speeds one should use when pass-

ing workers. Th is week I happened to catch an old-er male from Altona, MB who did not quite catch the 60km/hr when pass-ing workers’ warning. I ap-proached his window, and performed my usual rig-a-marole, “License, regis-tration, do you know why I pulled you over, yada, yada, yada.” Th e male proudly announced he had his cruise control set to 100km/hr. I explained that it was a 60km/hr zone when passing workers, and that he had in fact been go-ing 100km/hr when pass-ing the workers. He was written an $806.50 ticket. I don’t think I made his day by any means, but I want to set the precedence that we’re out there keeping construction zones safe. Slow down. Th ere is a lot of stuff someone can do with $800. And there you have this week’s speeder of the week. Be safe. See you around town and enjoy the sunshine!

2003 – Seventeen-year-old Kyle Parrott is off to New Brunswick as part of Team Manitoba to compete in the Canada Games. Kyle will compete in the short track 500 metre, 1,000 metre and 1,500 metre speed skating events. He hopes to qualify for the 3,000 metre event while there.

1993 – Close to 120 people gathered at Victoria, BC on February 20th to celebrate the one thing they had in common – their close connections with Minnedosa. Th e Minnedosa Rally was organized by Don and Marni Bold, assisted by Stu and Elsie McKay, Ken and Ava Harris, and Bob and Betty Deacon.

1983 – Town Council is budgeting $100,000 towards the cost of an estimated $250,000 in arena renovations. Th e money will be withdrawn from the Town’s general reserve and replaced over a two or three year period.

1973 – Mrs. Larry Spraggs of Erickson found and be-friended a stray dog and that friendship paid off last week when “Nipper” wakened the young housewife before fi re demolished her one-storey home. Th e Erickson Volun-teer Fire Brigade and Hydro crew were able to control the fi re long enough to save many household eff ects.

1963 – Between 450 and 500 people attended the Th ink-ing Day Rally in the Legion Hall Sunday. Scouts and Cubs from Onanole; Guides and Brownies from Rapid City; Guides, Cubs and Brownies from Minnedosa, Neepawa and Shoal Lake all accompanied their leaders and reaf-fi rmed their guiding promises.

1923 – Seats have arrived to replace those burned with the South School. Grades 7 and 8 will now go to the North School while the Town Hall, Queen’s Hotel, Armoury and Parish Hall are to accommodate the other grades.

1893 – Th ere has been no church service in Bethany for over a month and there probably won’t be any until spring owing to the state of the roads.

1883 – (Rumblings of Th e Tribune’s beginning as re-ported in the Free Press) Th e Conservatives of Minnedosa are reported to be passing the hat for the establishment of a newspaper in that town. Th e proprietor is to be Wil-liam Gibbens, late of the Rapid City Standard.

Today I realized that February is Black History Month. I forgot. And I didn’t write a thing.

It would have been easy, if I’d just remembered. Many of my go-to people for ideas and art (on a near daily basis) are black. Here are some longtime favou-rites, and recent discoveries: Esperanza Spalding (Jazz Basist and teacher); Alice Walker (writer); Ruthie Gilm-ore Wilson (academic); Michelle Alexander (lawyer); Angela Davis (intellectual, activist, politician); Quest-love (musician, bandleader); Zadie Smith (author); Warsan Shire (poet); Danielle Henderson (academic); Brendon Ayanbadejo (NFL Football player);Kid Presi-dent (go fi nd him on youtube); bell hooks (writer); Toni Morrison (writer). It’s ironic and incredibly annoying since Black History Month exists, in part, because people of co-lour, have been largely ignored in the written record of North America, not to mention other places. So, people set up a whole month to emphasize in the public re-cord that black folks also live here. Black folks also have history. Black folks also have culture and traditions and confl icts and stories and education and jobs and pain

and children. And these stories are everyone’s stories and they also have specifi c context, circumstances and lineage, like all of our lineages. Black History Month gets criticized as tokenistic. It’s this one time a year when we’re all meant to salute achievements by black people. And then the rest of the year, we go back to whatever we were doing before. Some people have the same criticisms of the weekly church rotation- repentant on Sundays, and something else for the other six days. But, using the metaphor, this week, Th e Minnedosa Tribune didn’t even make it in the doors. We always have the option of opening to the full-ness and complexity of our entire history. All those stories! Th e people who were already and are still here, and all of us who somehow arrived by hook or by crook, or a bit more comfortably, because of a need to escape some other place, or because of wanting to try some-thing new, or something in between. Th e problems, the mistakes, the stuff some try to forget, along with the better choices. It’s because I’m interested in the complexity that I like this job. And I still missed the opportunity to dive into more of it! Sorry everybody.

Letters to the Editor

13025gg05

Dear Editor,

Just another broken elec-tion promise for Harper?

In 2005, the Conservative party approved this policy declaration: Th at the Con-servative Government will repeal Canada’s costly gun registry legislation and work with the provinces and territories on cost-eff ective gun control pro-grams designed to keep guns out of the hands of criminals while respecting the rights of law-abiding Canadians to own and use fi rearms responsibly. Su-prise, suprise, the long gun registry is dead but the rest of C-68 is very alive. Th e current policy is that every fi rearm owners

must have a valid posses-sion certifi cate (POL, PAL) Th is lifetime licensing al-lows the government to track fi rearm owners for-ever. Why does this gov-ernment so distrust the vast majority of decent nonviolent fi rearm owners that if wants to identify and track every innocent gen owner forever? If your fi re-arm possession certifi cate expires, you have become a paper criminal according to the current laws. You are in illegal possession of all fi rearms without this piece of paper called a PAL. It is estimated that over 600,000 gun owners are paper criminals. You can be charged, lose your fi rearms and go to jail for il-

legally possessing fi rearms without a valid possession certifi cate. (We have no property right in Canada). Th e goal of any fi rearm law should be to reduce crime. Making paper crim-inals out of law-abiding citizens is wrong. We need to identify, register and track the 176,000 violent criminals who have gove through our courts instead of tracking the eight mil-lion innocent peaceful re-sponsible fi rearm owners. Please contact your MP.

Your sincerely,

Inky Mark,Former Member of Parliament,Dauphin, MB

Over 400 registrants came out to last

weekend’s Minnedosa Firefi ghters’ Relic Snow-mobile Derby, some from as far away as Lethbridge, AB. Th e annual fundraiser benefi ts the local fi re de-partment and features three check points, a prize for best sled, the occasion-al smoking motor and real-ly rad, old snowmachines. Th e derby has been active for 21 years. One of the check-points has traditionally been at the Woodcock’s farm where fresh cut and fried fries are off ered free to riders. Th is continued this year despite Deputy Fire Chief, Kirk Wood-cock’s recent passing. In Woodcock’s honour, a photo of the volunteer fi re-fi ghter in his gear was set up along with a donation bowl at the checkpoint. Ac-cording to organizer Mike

Kowal, participants dug deep. “Th is was one of his (Kirk’s) favourite events, and he was such a big part of it, said Mike. People saw the picture, and some learned of his death at the event.” Over $1,000 was placed in the pot, and the organizers will add to it in order to off er $1,500 to the Heart and Stroke Founda-tion in Kirk Woodcock’s name. Kowal said the most interesting sled he saw was a ‘snow bug’ made in Ontario. Th e machine has a cockpit for the driver, with the motor behind the driver’s seat. He fi gures that one was built in the 1950s or 60s. John Brown Jr., Kevin Cleaver and Ni-cole Colleen won the top three spots, and shared over $2,000 in prize mon-ey between them. Mark Chemerika won the an-tique snowmobile raffl e, taking home a 1971 Mo-toski.

Jack and Xisra Lamb were in Winnipeg on Feb-

ruary 16th attending the wedding of Xisra’s sister and Beryl’s granddaugh-ter. Andrea Bumstead and Mike Silk were united in marriage with all the fes-tivities held at a hotel. Harrison House Board of Directors held their AGM on February 23rd at Harrison House. Th e statistics show they had another very successful year, thanks to all the se-niors who use the program regularly. We’ll be intro-ducing two new casual cooks during the month of March, Cindy Dalke and Diane Usick and we hope all seniors will attend and meet them and enjoy their meals. 2013 is the start of our 25th year providing a hot noon meal to our se-niors, allowing many of them to remain in their homes much longer. Th e Junior Curlers held their wrap-up bonspiel on February 22nd at the rink with great ice conditions. Th ey played two games

and then broke for sup-per which was provided by the parents and then had two more draws follow-ing. Congratulations to the winning rink: Eric Lamb, Ryan Pedersen, Lucas Ped-ersen and Tyler Dalke. Th e other rinks were made up of: Lacey and Lindsay Win-stone, Wyatt Lamb, Aaron and Ethan Lott, Jenna Rys-tephanuk, Danielle Clark, George Ward, Shelby and Brooks Watson, Jorja Pedersen, Jayce Waddell, Michaela and Shaun Kry-shewsyy, Kristi Morris and Marika Dewar-Norosky. Everyone was a winner and there were prizes for each player! Over 20 chil-dren enjoyed after school curling every Friday after-noon during this curling season. Our best wishes to Gaylene Stimpson who ended up in Brandon Hospital a day before she was too celebrate her 80th birthday. Her birthday bash had to be cancelled, so instead of enjoying your cake Gaylene, all your Newdale friends wish you a very happy birthday and

much better health for your 80th year! Shelley Zahaiko spent a few days in Winnipeg babysitting this last week while Allison tries to get back into working mode as her maternity leave is now complete. Mr. Frykoda’s high school students enjoyed an “Arctic Expedition” last Friday when they travelled to Winnipeg for a day of outdoor activities. Th ey strapped on their snow-shoes and made their way around seven separate “Arctic” stations on a fro-zen lake, where they took ice, water and snow sam-ples, learned how animals survive the Arctic winters, learned about Arctic cli-mate and weather during their long winters. It made for a very educational and fun day.

It was 75 years ago that the Erickson Area held

their fi rst organizational meeting on January 27th, 1938 to discuss the possi-bilities of starting a curling club and building a rink. In the summer of 1940, with the help of local farmers and townsmen, the build-ing was erected. Wick-dahls’ sawed and planed the lumber at their mill and hauled it into town. Ted Neilson was hired as head carpenter and the work-ers were paid 35 cents per hour to go toward shares in the rink. Windows were also donated so the biggest expenses were shingles and nails. Th e fi rst curl-ing rocks were purchased in Winnipeg and paid for by individuals within the community. Th e curling fee for the opening bon-spiel was 25 cents each and to curl for the winter was $4.00 and the students paid $2.00. When the Erickson

Memorial Arena was com-pleted in 1953, it was of-fered to the Curling Club for use during the Annual Mixed Bonspiel. Some years saw as many as 67 rinks competing from Erickson and surrounding districts. With the arena’s space and kitchen facili-ties came the custom of serving meals during the Bonspiel. Ladies from the entire community served throughout the week and the meals were well sup-ported by curlers and non-curlers alike. Even though we no longer have 67 rinks, Erickson has been fortun-ate to have 24 entries over the last few years. With the help of curlers and non-curler volunteers the Annual Bonspiel this weekend still continues with the tradition of serv-ing meals but hosted only on Saturday and Sunday. After these many years, still a good opportunity to enjoy a meal and visit with friends and neighbours. In 1966 came the fi rst

thoughts about building a new recreation centre which would include four sheets of artifi cial curling ice. Being unable to re-ceive any grants or much support at this time, things didn’t really get started until 1973. Th e offi cial opening of the Recreation Centre was held on Octo-ber 18th, 1975 with a com-munity supper, opening ceremonies and a dance. On November 1st, 1980 only six years after comple-tion of the Recreation Cen-tre they held their Mort-gage Burning ceremonies. To pay off the $175,000.00 cost to erect the Recrea-tion Centre, in such a short time, is a tribute to which Erickson and area com-munities can be proud. In 2004, the new Re-creation Centre was in dire need of roof repairs and insulation. So an actual new roof was built over the existing roof and all the walls were insulated to im-prove energy effi ciency, to reduce operating costs and

improve the curling ice. Th e committee was busy applying for grants and fundraising to fund the project. But these renova-tions would not have been possible without the 30 residents of Erickson and surrounding communities personally guaranteeing the amount of $1,000 each. We are happy to announce that this latest mortgage is now paid and we will be celebrating another Mort-gage Burning Ceremonies during the Erickson Annu-al Bonspiel this weekend. Th e next project is to hopefully renovate the bathrooms for wheel-chair accessibility and the kitchen within this facility. We are fortunate that the Erickson Recreation Cen-tre is utilized for not only curling, but the Kiddie Kollege, Graduation Cere-monies, various weddings and the Erickson Archery’s indoor shoot. So with 75 years completed, it will be interesting where the next 75 years will lead us.

Novice

By NANCY MILLER

The playoff s are un-derway and the Nov-

ice Bombers have been working hard. With three straight wins so far they are well on their way. What an exciting time for our hock-ey players. On February 19th they travelled to Neepawa to play their fi rst playoff game against the Neepawa Na-tives. Goals were scored by Cole Topham and Vic-tor Lamb resulting in a win 7-3. First playoff game a success. On February 23rd we hosted the Neepawa Na-tives and once again came out on top with a score of 8-3. Goals were scored by Cole Topham, Victor Lamb, and Callie Maguire assist-ing was Payton Burton and Austin Taylor. Good job players. With the second game under their belts, all

the players were feeling confi dent and strong for the third game. On February 25th we hosted the Neepawa Hawks and after a strong game and excellent team playing by all, the Bombers won 13-4. Goals were scored by Cole Topham, Brooklyn Hedley, Victor Lamb, and Callie Maguire with assists by Kyler Sutherland, Owen Miller, Emma Austin, and Austin Taylor. You should of seen the excitement on the ice. (and in the stands) We played the Neepa-wa Hawks on February 26th for the second game (scores not available at press time) and if need-ed game three will be in Neepawa this weekend. If the Novice Bombers win this series it is still unde-termined as to which team we will play next, but I can tell you that it will be in the West.

Good luck Bombers!  Skate hard and try your

best and most of all HAVE FUN!

Atoms

By JENN MERRITT

On February 21st the Atoms began their

playoff rounds, by travel-ling to Onanole to take on the EOS Wildcats in their fi rst out of three games. Period one, both teams were matched at one a piece. It was an intense game and by the end of the third period, both teams would remain tied at 2-2. After almost two full over-time periods, the Bomb-ers unfortunately would walk away with a 3-2 loss, against the Wildcats. Goal/assist went to; Graham Bai-ley (1G) and Konlyn Ne-metcheck (1G). Th e second game of the playoff s, the Bombers would take the home ad-vantage game on Saturday the 23rd, again against the Wildcats. Th e fi rst period saw the Bombers take a 2-1 lead over the Wildcats. Minnedosa would net an-other two goals in the sec-ond to bring the score to 4-2. After the fi nal round, the Bombers skated away with a fi nal score of 6-3 over the Wildcats. Goals/ assists were awarded to: Carter Hed-ley (Hat Trick, 2A), Ethan Adnum (1G), Chase Miller (1G), Kayden Sutherland (1G), Lucas Parrott (2A), Kanyon Flick (1A) and Wade Waskul (1A). Great job team and well done to Cole Cibula, for another consistently well played game in net! Now with both teams holding one win each they met up for their fi nal match of the season, on Sunday, February 24th. Minnedosa had their cheer

posters (check), noisemak-ers (check) and an excited group of fans, to cheer them on. In the fi rst period the Bombers took a quick lead, netting three goals, with a score of 3-0. Period two would prove to be another hard fought round, with them adding another three goals, to advance their lead, 6-0. Finally the third period would hold the vic-tory for the Bombers, who skated away with an 8-0 win. Goals/assists went to: Chloe Kushner (2G), Carter Hedley (2G, 1A), Wade Waskul (1G), Lu-cas Parrott (1G), Kayden Sutherland (1G), Bryden McFarlane (1G), Chase Miller (1A), Graham Bailey (1A), Erik Barrett (1A) and Konlyn Nemetchek with (1A). Cole Cibula dominat-ed in net, earning himself a well deserved shut out. “Great job, Cole”! Each player on the At-oms team contributed to the win. Th e combination of some excellent passing, a lot of shots on net and a lot of hard skating sealed the game for the Bombers. “Well done, team!” Th e Bombers will now advance into the sec-ond round of playoff s. Minnedosa will face off against Ste. Rose, in the next round of best out of three. Starting this evening, the Minnedosa Atoms

team will host the ‘A’ Atoms Provincials, over the week-end. Please come out and support our team. Good luck Atoms!

Pee Wee 12’s

By CRISSY KOWAL

Minnedosa’s Pee Wee 12’s saw their season

come to an end at home on Th ursday, February 21st when Brandon won their second straight in the quar-ter fi nal best of three. Th e Bombers kept things close in the fi rst tying things up at two apiece before the end of the period. Howev-er, Brandon would double up their lead in the second and put the game out of reach by the mid-point of

the third. Th e puck didn’t seem to want to bounce Minnedosa’s way as they just couldn’t capitalize on many good scoring chanc-es. Th ey did fi nd the back of the net a couple more times in the third to make it a little closer with the game ending in a fi nal score of 8-4. Nathan Dornn, Zane MacDonald and Braeden Good each with one goal - no info recorded on game sheet for goal number two. One assist each to Joe Lane and Zane MacDonald; Joe Lane netminder. Th e team still has some hockey ahead of them as they will take part in Pro-vincials which is upcoming in Sagkeeng. Good Luck Bombers!

LIFE REMEMBEREDVictoria Augusta Doris Schenk

(nee: Field)-

Victoria passed away peacefully in her 95 th year on Saturday February 2nd, 2013 in the Minnedosa District Hospital after a short illness. Her memorial service was held on February 9th, 2013 at Cadurcis United Church. She was preceded by her husband Wilbert on March 17th, 2001 after 53 years of marriage. She will always be lovingly remembered by her four daughters and their husbands, Linda and Jack Baker of Bowmanville, Ontario, Marjorie and Phillip Asmussen of Alice Springs, Australia, Norma and Ray Howes of Rock Creek, B.C. and Eleanor and Jim Graham of Minnedosa, Manitoba; her nine grandchildren and partners: George and Crissy Baker, Bruce and Elise Baker, Carol (Baker) and Philip Hendricks, Mark Asmussen, Laura Asmussen, Lindsay Howes, Jeff ery Howes, Kate Graham and Matt Pass, and Bee-Jay Graham; her four young great-grandchildren Jake Baker, Reid, Jason and Emma Hendricks. Victoria was born to Dr. William and Sarah Field on December 24th, 1918 in Swift Current, Saskatchewan. She had an older half-brother, Charles and a younger sister, Wilma. Th ey grew up in Swift Current, Saskatchewan and in that time they spent some summers on the farm in Minnedosa with her uncles and aunt: Harry and Syd Field and Pearl and Harold Dickie. She graduated from high school and then went to Ottawa where she worked in government offi ces. She married Wilbert Schenk in 1947 and they moved to Charlton, Ontario where they farmed and raised their four daughters. In 1964, they moved to the Field Family farm and farmed there until they retired in 1986 when they moved to Victoria, BC. Th e family farm is now owned and operated by her youngest daughter, Eleanor and her husband Jim Graham. In December 2012, Victoria moved back to the family farm to live with Eleanor and Jim and grandson Beejay. She was always a very positive person and enriched the lives of all who knew her. She was active in Women’s Institute, 4-H clubs (a leader for over 10 years), the Arthritis Society, Cook Street Seniors Centre, United Church Women and Fairfi eld Knitting Group. She was an active member of St. Mark’s Anglican Church in Charlton, Ontario, and Cadurcis United Church in Manitoba and Fairfi eld United Church in Victoria. She enjoyed visiting and helping people and was always encouraging. She loved to travel and visit family and made numerous trips across Canada and two journeys to Australia. Th is last year she made a trip to Toronto and back to Victoria visiting all her family. Laughter was present wherever she went. She loved her family and friends with many albums of family history and photos. She also loved gardening, singing, knitting and crochet. Any donations can be made to Minnedosa Heritage Village. Rest in Peace Victoria.

By DANIELLE CABERNAL

Glossophobia is the fear of speaking in public.

Statistics state that 75% of the population has this fear (www.glossophobia.com). Symptoms can range from mild (upset stomach, sweaty palms, blushing, dry mouth, weak voice, sweating, rapid heartbeat) or to more severe (anxiety attacks). Th is can happen in various settings including classroom, workplace, social gathering, and public meetings. Th is fear can cause us to miss out on many academic, social, and career opportunities.

S o m e o r g a n i z a t i o n s , s u c h a s T o a s t m a s t e r s International, may help to reduce the fear to manageable levels. One such organization is 4-H. While known mainly for the project work the members are involved in, the Communications program is an integral part of 4-H. Members develop their public speaking skills in formal situations (club, area or provincial Communications events and senior member interviews) and informal

situations (speaking at club or area meetings). Th ey not only become more comfortable speaking in public they develop writing and research skills as well.

M e m b e r s prepare a speech or visual presentation. A speech communicates an idea and gives information to an audience using voice, body language and content. Vi s u a l p re s e nt at i o n s use visual aids such as actual objects, posters, p h o t o g r a p h s, d i s p l a y b o a r d s o r c o m p u t e r presentations, and can be presented by one or two members. Some areas still have a Creative Expression category, where a presentation can include skits, poetry, games shows, mock interviews, and many members can participate. A group C re at i v e E x p re s s i o n presentation is a good way to get members who are nervous about being in front of an audience to participate. Th e member(s) start at club level, and can move on to zone and/or area and then provincial levels. Th ere are fi ve age categories.

Th is year Farm

Credit Corporat ion (FCC) is sponsoring the Centennial Public Speaking Program to celebrate 4-H’s 100th a n n i v e r s a r y . F C C is providing special certifi cates at all levels and providing monetary prizes at provincial and national levels. Ensure you attend the various events in your local communities that are currently taking place, and the Provincial C o m p e t i t i o n , w h i c h takes place next month in Portage La Prairie. Consider volunteering for an event, as judge, timekeeper, room chair, or on the planning committee. It’s a great opportunity to meet enthusiastic members and leaders, see some great presentations and help a program that builds leadership and life skills in youth.

Being able to communicate eff ectively, written and verbal, can open many doors. 4-H provides an opportunity for young people to develop and practice these skills, as they Learn to do by Doing.

The value of the 4-H Communications program
