fund raising projects. In May, 1998, the lodge committed $18,000 to fund the continuation of the multipurpose exercise trail from Scott Drive to Douglas Avenue. Over the years most children and youth activities, sports programs including minor football league have received assistance from the Elks.

In 1993 the Elks purchased four emergency room beds and two heart monitors for a cost of $40,000 for Battlefords Union Hospital.

In 2003 $9,500 was committed to furnish one palliative care room at BUH. In 2009 we funded $4,000 toward the purchase of the score clock at the Civic Centre. We are one of the groups sponsoring free skating for adults and children. Since 2013, more than $200,000 has been donated throughout the community to individuals, schools, groups and organizations.

AWANA Boys and Girls Club

Territorial Drive Alliance Church The AWANA Club is an interdenominational organization for boys and girls from age two years to Grade 12.

AWANA Club meets each Tuesday from 7:00 - 8:30 p.m. at the Territorial Drive Alliance Church. Club begins in early September and runs until the end of April.

Each club evening is divided into three parts — game time, handbook time and council time. Game time encourages good sportsmanship and cooperation. Handbook time focuses on scripture memorization and understanding the Bible. Each clubber has an opportunity to recite their memory work to qualified leaders. Council time is a time of singing, presentation of awards and a devotional. There are special theme nights each month that everyone enjoys. One special activity is the annual “Grand Prix” during which the clubbers race model cars which they have constructed out of wood.

Girls and boys from all denominations are welcome.

Battlefords Community Players Are you looking for a new adventure, did drama back in high school, always wanted to be involved in live theatre but never had the time or thought experience was necessary. Come out and join the Battlefords Community Players. We are open to everyone and welcome new members at any time. Remember there is more to community theatre than acting, we also need people to build sets, create costumes or who might just like to help by working backstage or front of house. Don’t know, not sure, we can mentor.

Battlefords Community Players have been part of the scene in the Battlefords since 1952. The club is one of the oldest in the province and the first to bring supper theatre to Saskatchewan audiences. The club traditionally presents three or four productions each year and will often work with other groups in partnership to present a wide variety of experiences to the community. The club has been the first to produce many new plays for first time and emerging writers – some with great success others not so much. We have also produced many productions written by local writers that have been very successful.

BCP traditionally offers a 3 or 4 play season on a subscription basis, as well as smaller, more intimate, productions at our clubhouse in Battleford. Individual tickets are available to all our productions and we offer dinner theatre and show only options.

BCP has also been offering murder mystery shows to various groups looking for entertainment for their fundraisers or community events.This year we also prepared a show called Love Letters that would be available to any group looking for something fun for their event. Give us a call if you think this might work for you.

The 2018 - 2019 season should be announced by the end of June, 2018 and our previous patrons will get first opportunity to renew their subscription. Regular tickets and new subscribers will have ample opportunity to purchase tickets before the first show opens or throughout the year by calling 306-446-3133.

Our new club house and rehearsal space is located at 102 - 26th Street W. in Battleford, get information from our website www.bcpdrama.com and follow us on facebook.

Battlefords Ukrainian Seniors Society Branch No. 184 The Battlefords Ukrainian Seniors Society Branch No. 184 was first organized October 1977. The purpose was to get Ukrainian Canadians together for recreation and socialization. Having no permanent home, the basements of the two Ukrainian churches were put to use, alternating every Wednesday for readings, cards, singing and general socializing.

In January 1980, we acquired the former band hall, started dismantling on January 14, 1980 and in three days time had it moved to our present location at 792 - 108 Street.

Through the generosity of our people and the great amount of volunteer labor by so many we now have a building that is paid for, which serves many purposes and we are very proud to show it off.

We gather for suppers with others for certain celebrations such as Ukrainian New Year, Ukrainian Heritage Day and any other occasion that warrants such a supper.

Films, slides and guest speakers also are hosted. Many workshops are held to keep up our heritage. The hall is also used by the Svoboda Dancers and The Ukrainian Cultural Society with whom we are closely associated, and the Ukrainian Studies Group.

We do not receive any grants.

This organization eventually became known as The Battlefords Wildlife Federation. At the present time there are over 400 members.

It is a paradise for bird watchers and nature lovers. A viewing tower and platforms have been built to provide magnificent opportunities to see wildlife up close.

Club DJ Trinity Baptist Church Club DJ is our church children’s club program designed for children from kindergarten to Grade 6. Our motto in Club DJ is “Hearts That Desire To Please God” and our aim is to encourage children to have hearts that desire to please the Lord.We truly believe that is we would raise up a generation with such hearts that we would begin to see things happen in our nation that would have no explanation, except that God did it!

Club DJ is based on the covenant relationship between two friends David and Jonathan. We read about them in the book of I Samuel. David was a shepherd boy, the youngest in a family of eight boys and Jonathan was a prince, son of King Saul. Everyone would have thought that Jonathan would be king but God had other plans. Instead, God chose David to be the next king of Israel. You might think that Jonathan would be jealous, but instead, Jonathan made a covenant with David and promised to do al he could to help David become all that God wanted him to be. What a friend! Jonathan gave up all he had for David’s sake, and the Bible says David became a man after God’s own heart and that the Lord was with him.

We want the children to know they also have a friend who gave up all He had to see them become all God wants them to be. Jesus, the Son of God, left His home in Heaven to come to earth as a little baby. He died and rose again to make a way for each child to have a personal relationship with Him, so they can become all God wants them to be.What a Friend!

Club DJ at Trinity Baptist Church runs from September to April and please call the church at 306-445-4818 for details as to cost, time and night.

Each club night consists of Bible stories, scripture memory program.

Bible quizzing, take home Bible lessons, great crafts, fun games, and an exciting achievement awards program which includes the Club DJ Catalogue.

We invite you to join us in reaching children for Christ. Our desire is to see whole families grow in Christ and live their lives for God’s honor and glory.

Ducks Unlimited Canada www.ducks.ca

Ducks Unlimited Canada (DUC) is a private, non-profit, charitable organization that conserves, restores and manages wetlands and associated habitats. Since 1938, DUC has been restoring drained wetlands, improving those that have been degraded, and protecting others from being lost across Saskatchewan.

Saskatchewan is part of the pothole region that spans Canada’s southern prairies and is known throughout North America as a unique jurisdiction for waterfowl. The many small wetlands that dot this landscape make it especially attractive to the waterfowl that migrate to Saskatchewan each spring to breed and rear their young.

Saskatchewan citizens have long valued the ecologically rich landscapes that make up their province and have played a key role in managing habitat for migratory bird species such as waterfowl. DUC’s work with the people of Saskatchewan has been essential in achieving waterfowl habitat goals and preserving those landscapes.

Waterfowl aren’t the only beneficiaries of DUC wetland and habitat conservation efforts – people benefit too.Wetlands are nature’s water filters.

Beyond improving habitat for waterfowl and other wildlife, wetlands replenish groundwater sources, purify surface water and offer flood protection and erosion control. All of which contribute to a safe water supply.

Although wetlands are considered nature’s nursery, the stark reality is that much of this habitat has been lost and the remainder continues to be degraded. Up to 70 per cent of Canada’s original wetlands have vanished in settled parts of the country, and more disappear every day.

Our conservation work is not done. To learn more about how you can support DUC and wetland conservation, please visit www.ducks.ca.

Saskatchewan Health Authority – BATTLEFORDS & AREA The Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) launched on December 4, 2017, transitioning 12 former regional health authorities including the former Prairie North Health Region to a single provincial health authority.

The SHA is the largest organization in Saskatchewan, employing over 44,000 employees and physicians responsible for the delivery of high quality and timely health care for the entire province.

We are driven by the commitment to improve front line patient care for Saskatchewan people, and we are working together to better coordinate health services across the province to ensure that patients receive high quality, timely health care, wherever they live in Saskatchewan.

Establishing one provincial approach to plan and deliver health-care services will break down geographic boundaries and service silos, to provide more consistent and coordinated health-care services across the province.

The work to unify the health system under a single organization and coordinate system-wide transformation, for the benefit of people working in the system and those that use it, is a multi-year journey in collaboration with patients, health-care providers and partners across the health system.
