PAGE 11 Kipling Magyar Seniors earn silver

Kipling Junior Magyars win Silver By Laura Kish thecitizen@sasktel.net Kipling School’s Junior Girls Volleyball team hosted the 2019 QVDA Jr Girls Volleyball Districts with eight teams from areas of Saskatchewan including Kipling, Grenfell, Cupar, Bert Fox, CKCS, North Valley, Lumsden and Standing Buffalo on Saturday, Oct. 26. Kipling Grade 8/9 team members include #1 Bryce Szilagyi, #2 Kaylee Joorisity, #3 Alexys Roppel, #4 Dixie Corscadden, #5 Makenna Marton, #6 Kara Barath, #7 Olivia Dedecker, #8 Autumn Singer, #9 Madison Shoemaker, #10 Kassidy Lowenberger, #11 Tanisha Fefchuk, #12 Megan Reid, #14 Anika Hennick and #15 Brady Dayman, coached by Monica Olson and Rhett Larsen. Ava Beattie is also a member of the team but has been injured most of this season. It was an exciting day of volleyball competition with exciting matches between the junior teams with lots of action and many close games. Many fans were there to cheer on their team. Pool standings at the end of the round robin: Pool A: 1st Kipling (3 and 0); nd 2 Grenfell (2 and 1); 3rd Cupar (1 and 2) and 4th Bert Fox (0 and 3). Pool B: 1st Lumsden (3 and 0); 2nd CKCS (2 and 1); 3rd North Valley (1 and 2) and 4th Standing Buffalo (0 and 3). In the Semi Finals Kipling defeats CKCS 25-21, 25-11; Lumsden defeats Grenfell 25-9, 25-18. In the Championship game Kipling came on strong to take the first set 25-13. The second set was the total opposite giving Lumsden the win 25-14. This sent the game to a third set with Lumsden taking the win with a score of 15-5. “These girls have shown a lot of growth and have a lot of potential,” explains Monica Olson, one of the coaches of the Kipling Magyars “and have shown a lot of improvement over the season.” “They’ve won two very large tournaments throughout the season,” says Olson. “Many of these girls have been playing volleyball since Grade 6,” explains Olson “and some have played Club volleyball as well.

Hockey School with the KW Oil Kings By Laura Kish thecitizen@sasktel.net Hockey school is the perfect way to for the avid hockey player to spend a weekend. The skills he or she hones in hockey school will help bring his or her NHL dreams closer. In fact, there are very few pro hockey players who did not go to hockey school as kids. The main priority is to provide hockey instruction to players. The classes teach the kids about improving shooting and puck control. Players can work hard to improve their hockey skill in a fun, encouraging environment at the arena. The rink was very busy last Friday and Saturday as the KW Oil Kings held their 4th annual Hockey School partnering with Kipling Minor Hockey to put on this event. “We had noticed other senior teams running camps for their minor hockey associations at the start of the season and approached minor hockey

to see if this is something that we could do,” explains Oil Kings player James Gallagher, organizer of the event, on how the idea came about to start such an event. “There has always been an interest from the parents in minor hockey for some type of instructional camp for the kids, so when the Oil Kings approached them willing to take on that responsibility it was a win win situation,” Gallagher goes on to say. Cost is minimal compared to the experience and skills the kids come away with. Groups 1 and 2 paid $50 for four one-hour ice sessions. Group 3 paid $30 for three one-hour ice sessions. “Each year we get lots of positive comments from parents,” says Gallagher. “They say how much fun the kids had and that they really look up to us.” “This is always good to hear as players that the kids are always having fun and enjoying the camp,” says Gallagher. All of the Oil Kings

players get involved with this camp. “Helping organize this event each year with the Oil Kings players is always fun. Guys get excited to be out on the ice helping kids and working on skills,” explains Gallagher. “As an organization the Oil Kings like putting this camp on as a way to give back to Minor Hockey and make relationships with the kids that are playing hockey,” explains Gallagher. “All the Oil Kings players really enjoying working with the kids, it makes us look back to all the great senior players we used to look up and wanted to be like when we grew up. It’s a cool feeling knowing that these kids now look up to us and to be able to help them means a lot to the Oil Kings players!” says Gallagher. “Each year we seem to have good response from players and parents so hopefully this camp will continue each year for many more years to come!” says Gallagher.

SJHL partners with UnderstandUs for the 2020 season The Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League (SJHL) is proud to announce that it has partnered with UnderstandUs for the 2019-2020 season. Founded by Jim Demeray, UnderstandUs is a volunteer initiative that combats the stigma of mental health. UnderstandUs promotes awareness and provides education on mental health, while

building relationships in the community, by challenging people to feel, think, and act differently about mental health. Bill Chow President of the SJHL says “often times SJHL players and athletes think they have to be tough and not show emotion. Allowing our players to talk about their journeys and struggles with mental health will hopefully aide future

players/athletes to break the stigma in hockey. This campaign allows our players and future players to start the conversations on and off the ice. We hope with endeavours such as this it breaks the silence and allows players to talk about their mental health�. This partnership aligns with the SJHL’s mission of providing the best services for players as they

Editorial PAUSE FOR REFLECTION

Intercessory Prayer is the greatest work by Ken Rolheiser k.rolheiser@sasktel.net

A bricklayer named Max was working on a three story apartment cutting bricks on the floor when he was commanded by the Spirit to drop to his knees and pray the following prayer: “Thank you Father for the Angels you put about me to care for me in all my ways, to lift me up in their hands lest I dash a foot upon a stone.” Max recounts, “What was so amazing about this was is at that time I wasn’t an active Christian and I had no known knowledge at the time of where that verse came from. I later learned it came from Psalm 91. It was as if I was pushed down to the ground, ‘Say this!’ and I did.” A few hours later Max was

standing on the edge of the top scaffold when someone shouted a warning to him. Again, in his own words, “When I spun around a large stack of concrete blocks was already tumbling over on top of me. I had nowhere to go but down, but they literally parted in the middle and fell smashing down three stories plus the length of a very steep driveway. “We both watched the stack split in half and fall on either side of me. He actually said to me, ‘How did that happen?’ in wonder because the whole thing sort of defied the laws of physics.” (Testimony on the Power of intercessory Prayer by Michael Bradley). An act of God divided the stack of bricks and saved Max. In Max’s story we see that

God has a great love for us. When no one else has our back with prayer, the Spirit can come to our aid. Indeed, “More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of.” (Tennyson). Stories about intercessory petitions are as old as we are. We remember when we wanted permission to use the family car, and so we asked Mom to ask Dad if we could have the car. Prayers of intercession go back to biblical times. Jesus said, “My Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.” (John 16:23). Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to be with us after his ascension, and the Spirit is the most powerful prayer assistant we have. When we do not know how to pray, “The Spirit Himself makes intercession

for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. … He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.” (Romans 8:26-27). It struck me recently that our salvation story is one of intercession. Jesus redeemed us and made restitution for our sins to the Father. He bought us with his blood. In the true story about Max above, we see how intercessory prayer is really needed. We need to pray for others, and sometimes the Spirit will prompt us to. Jesus told St Gertrude the Great the following prayer would release a vast number of souls from Purgatory: “Eternal Father. I offer thee the most precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with all the Masses being said this day through-

Kipling Rec Report Submitted by Susan Hengen, Recreation Programmer The recent unfavorable weather we have been experiencing causes most of us to concede to accept that perhaps “fall” is over, and winter is here. On October 29th, ParticipACTION will release its inaugural comprehensive report on physical activity for Canadian adults, shedding light on the complex inactivity crisis among Canadian adults. Being physically active takes a bit of work and commitment to a regular routine – whether that includes regularly attending a structured fitness class or gym session, or just simply changing our habits to include more movement each day. It is important, also, to be realistic with your expectations when looking for benefits of added physical activity. To realize positive benefits, we need to commit to being active at a moderate to vigorous activity level, five days a week, for a minimum of 30 minutes each day. By committing to that amount of activity, after two to three weeks, you should begin to notice some benefits. At any rate, the benefits of physical activity extend way beyond how you look. There are brain benefits, relationship benefits, community benefits and benefits you may have never even expected. The link between physical activity and better physical, mental or emotional health has been proven in study after study. But everyone is different. Understanding what really motivates you and finding an activity you love to do from all the different ways to get physically active is key. Once you get the ball rolling, you won’t believe all the ways activity can benefit you and those around you. If you are 55 years or older, consider attending Older Adult Fitness Classes on Tuesdays at 10:30 a.m. in the Kipling Friendship Centre. Classes are 50 minutes in length and open to all interested participants. Classes feature light cardio activity, strength training

and balance and flexibility exercises – all set to great music! There is no charge to attend – everyone is welcome! The Dale Blackstock Memorial Rec Hockey Tournament will be held on November 8 and 9 in the Kipling Arena. 2019 marks the 33rd year of the event and will feature a Ladies’ game on the opening night. Admission to the tournament is free; registration fee for teams is $300, with a 12 team limit. Call Rob Barath (306) 736-7255 or Susan at the Rec Office (306) 736-8440 to register. Kipling & District Arts Council begins it 2019/20 season with The Johnny McCuaig Band performing Thursday, November 28 at 7:30 p.m. in the Kipling Community Centre. Because this group screams “PARTY”, the event will feature a cash bar for those attending to enjoy. Single and season tickets are available online at TICKETPRO (www.ticketpro.ca) or can be purchased at Balfour Drugs, or from Mona Lynn Stender (306) 736-2263. Season passes include four shows this year, instead of three, with a great lineup! Congratulations to Kipling Library Board on moving into their new facility at the corner of Main Street and 6th Avenue (former TD Canada Trust building). The new space will provide lots of opportunity for additional programming, and most importantly, welcome those patrons with mobility challenges. Kipling Campground has closed for the season. Individuals are welcome to store their RV units in the campground for the off season, but must call the Rec Office to register them (306) 736-8440. Owners are also encouraged to keep their insurance current on their RV units, as Kipling & District Parks and Recreation will not be responsible for anything stored in the campground.

Speech talks about growth in agriculture By Calvin Daniels cdaniels@sasktel.net

Sometimes, probably without consciously trying to do it, politicians can end up parroting the rather obvious. Such was the case when the Saskatchewan government delivered its latest Throne Speech. Not surprisingly the speech, delivered by Lt.-Gov. Russ Mirasty, talks a lot about building toward the future. It goes down the path of building for two rather obvious reasons. The first, being that we are only two months away from the start of a new decade and that is always a rather fitting time to establish some benchmarks and goals for the years ahead. Then of course is the reality of politics and with a provincial election set for 2020 this is this edition of the government’s last Throne Speech before going to the polls, and so using the Speech to begin laying out its platform for re-election only makes sense. The Speech naturally suggests the 2020s will be a decade of growth for the province. Again not a startling position since no government is going to suggest decline is coming when they are in charge. And, in the case of population the recent trend has been one of growth, and it is to be hoped that continues. Right now that might be questioned by some as job layoffs notices across a range of industries; potash, electricians and others are all too common. However, a plan for growth over a decade is one that has to look beyond the periodic ups and downs of an economy. For example, the potash sector has faced layoffs in the past, and then rebounded as the demand for the commodity bounces back. So the government, through the Speech, is promising to unveil a plan for Saskatchewan to achieve a population of 1.4 million and 100,000 more jobs by 2030. There is no doubt the suggested growth itself will create economic activity, the new residents requiring homes, clothing, food, and cars, so if achieved it is a definite positive. The Speech also talks in the broadest terms about growth in agriculture. “Increasing crop production and growing the percentage of primary agricultural production that is processed in our province will be part of our plan moving forward,” said the speech. “Growth in the value of exports requires more valueadded production. To ensure our province reaps the full benefit of our agricultural resources, my government will outline measures to increase agricultural value-added exports to $10 billion by 2030.” Realistically there has never been a time when the farm sector has not looked to grow production. That is the essence of a business plan for most producers, grow more bushels on the same number of acres to improve the bottom line. Value-added is a different thing. The idea of increasing that side of agriculture expends back decades now and the countryside is littered with failed hog barns, flax straw processors, dead alfalfa dehydrators, failed pea chip plants and more. That side of the government’s plan will be far more interesting to view, but the core idea of value-added is far from new.

Advice to help you drive smarter and safer this winter The arrival of colder temperatures means winter snow and ice may be here to stay. Here’s what you need to know to help you drive smarter and safer this winter. Vehicles: * Oil: Make the switch to synthetic. When the temperatures drops, it won’t thicken up like conventional oil, allowing it to flow better, reduce engine wear and provide easier start-up in winter. * Wipers and Fluid: Replace worn-out blades. Fill it up with winter-grade washer fluid – it won’t freeze in the reservoir and damage hoses during below-zero temps. * Block Heater: Check it with a block-heater tester before frigid conditions set in. Make sure you don’t have any cracks or tears in the cord. Always plug your vehicle in when the temperature falls below -15°C. * Battery: The battery is your vehicle’s lifeline. Cold conditions can weaken it and cause it to fail. Check it often and have it charged or changed if necessary. * Battery Tender: When leaving your vehicle parked for an extended period, a battery tender will keep it

charged at the proper storage voltage. * All-Weather, 3 Season and Winter Tires: 3-season (a.k.a. all-season) tires work well in spring, summer and fall. But all-weather or winter tires are best for driving on snow and ice as the rubber designed for snowy and icy conditions will perform better than all-seasons. The deep tread design provides up to 50% better traction on winter roads. Rubber in all-seasons start to lose elasticity and harden at around 7°C, reducing its ability to grip the road. * Tire Pressure: When the thermometer goes down, so does your tire pressure. Even though most vehicles have a Temperature Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), it’s a good idea to check the tires at least monthly (don’t forget the spare) or more often during the colder temperatures. If you’re not sure if your vehicle is winter-ready, have it checked by a professional. Drivers: * Check weather and road conditions. If conditions are poor, stay off the roads and make alternate plans. * Plan your route in advance. Allow extra time for

travel and let others know your rotes and ETA. * Snow and ice can triple your stopping distance. Leave more-than-normal space between the car ahead of you and use turn signals well in advance to alert drivers behind you. * Avoid using cruise control on a slippery road. Your tires can lose their traction trying to keep to a set speed. * Focus on smooth braking and steering in slippery conditions. If you jerk the wheel or slam the brakes, your tire treads could lose traction with the road and start sliding. * Don’t crowd the plow. When you encounter a snow plow on the highway, your visibility may be limited. Slow down and drive with caution. Legislation requires that motorists slow to 60 km when passing a snow plow with lights flashing whether the snow plow is in operation or pulled over to the side of the road. (courtesy of Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure) * Slow down when passing tow trucks – it’s the law. Saskatchewan motorists must slow to 60 km/hour near working tow trucks with safety lights flashing on highways.

National Community Safety & Crime Prevention Month Emergency Preparedness: a Group Effort Natural disasters occur a lot more around Canada than the average person might think. Severe storms, tornados, wildfires, floods, earthquakes and avalanches have all been known to occur within Canadian borders. With climate change contributing to a constantly evolving meteorological situation in the country, too, it seems likely that these natural disasters will only continue to increase in volume and severity. November is National Community Safety & Crime Prevention Month, and this month the Canada Safety Council is calling your attention to emergency preparedness. Do you know what to do in case of emergency? Emergency plan A plan is a must when it comes to emergency preparedness. Because it could be needed at any time, you won’t be able to rely on effective communications during the emergency. Identify the exit points from your house. An escape route may become necessary if you need to get out immediately. You should also designate a meeting area in case you and your family get split up. Be aware of the location of your fire extinguisher, water valve, electrical panel, gas valve and floor drain at all times. If you have children, your emergency plan should also account for situations where they may be at school or daycare while the emergency

is occurring. Designate a person to pick them up. The same rule applies to pets and how you will ensure they are taken care of in extreme circumstances. Supplies In planning for disaster, the key to keep in mind is that it may take time before emergency responders are able to assist you. When building your emergency kit, prepare for at least 72 hours (three days) of self-sufficiency. Your supplies should include: at least two litres of water per person, per day; non-perishable food items like canned food, granola bars and dried food; a manual can opener; a manual flashlight or a battery-operated one with extra batteries; a battery-powered radio; a first-aid kit; specialty items including medication, formula and equipment, as well as any specific items customized to the potential risks in your area. These supplies should be stored in a backpack, suitcase or other easily transportable means of storage and placed in an easily accessible place. In case of an emergency that forces you to evacuate, you won’t necessarily have the time to go looking for your kit. Contact information Write down the phone numbers for emergency contacts – you may not be able to access the Internet in an emergency situation. Have phone numbers on hand for family, an out-of-town emer-

gency contact, doctor, veterinarian (if applicable,) poison control and non-emergency calls. The main emergency number will likely be busy during natural disasters, but for urgent situations only, don’t hesitate to call 9-1-1. During an emergency Your first priority should be to ensure your own safety. You’ll be of no help to anybody if you put yourself in harm’s way. Assist others as soon as you’re safe. Follow the plan you’ve set out, making sure to stay put until all is safe or you’re ordered to evacuate. Listen to the radio or TV, if possible, for further information. Avoid using electronic devices unnecessarily – too much cellular activity can jam up the signals and, besides, you may need to conserve battery power. If you’re ordered to evacuate, make sure to take your emergency kit as well as any essentials, shut off water, electricity and gas if instructed to do so, notify your out-of-town contact and provide details of where you are going. Lock your home before leaving, and register with a local reception centre where you will be kept up to date. Emergency preparedness is a group effort – community safety depends on everyone doing their part to keep the neighbourhood safe even in the face of emergency. Make a plan, stick to it, and trust emergency responders to do their part, too.

* Pack extra clothing and gear for all occupants: Including footwear, nonperishable food, and water. * Carry a fully charged mobile phone and portable phone battery charger. This is a ‘must have’ for emergency use or if you need to call for roadside assistance. A properly charged phone could be your lifeline in an emergency. * Pack a roadside assistance kit: Including a flashlight, battery booster cables, shovel, snow brush, ice scraper, etc. * Drive with caution: In

school zones and residential areas. Pedestrians will need extra time to cross streets due to snow and ice which also means you will need extra time to stop safely. If you do become stranded, here are some rules to follow: 1. Don’t panic. Keep calm. 2. Stay with your vehicle. It will make it easier for rescuers or tow operators to find you. Know where you are so you can identify your location. 3. The fully charged mo-

bile phone you have with you, will come in handy to call for help. 4. Make an SOS. Place a bright scarf or blanket in a rolled-up window to signal distress. 5. Don’t overexert yourself.

Today’s Home OϪce There are so many rooms in your home to consider when building a new home or doing a major renovation that you just have to start somewhere. The ever changing world we are living in has made a huge impact on many parts of our lives, from how we communicate with one another to how we pay our daily bills and schedule our daily commitments. I want to start with one of the rooms or in this case spaces that have made a big transformation… the home office. The face of the home office has changed dramatically over the last 30 years. When Bill Gates stated he wanted to see a computer in every home, it sounded absurd! But now a days everyone has at least one computer and there are always extras floang around. We have our computers and phones by our side and need internet access to it 24/7, so our office area is now much more mobile. The furnishing and homeware companies have become aware of this and have adapted and added in features that cater to this concept. From lamps, recliners, nightstands, and beds having USB port options integrated into them to wall plugs in new buildings that have the USB ports built right into regular outlet plugins. My work requires frequent travel and I used to have to remember my plug-in adapter, and when I forgot it, I would be forced to go buy yet another one. Hotels are catching on and regularly now provide a charging station. So, everyone is seeing the need to adapt and change. When you are in the planning stage, consider incorporating a computer station to your home kitchen area. It is a fantastic choice! The kitchen is historically the area for socializing, working, and entertaining in most homes. Whether you are looking up a recipe, checking out the Front Porch Interiors website (wink), or cranking out a great tune like Sam Hunt’s Body Like a Backroad, which is one of my favorites, this area is necessary and a surprisingly great addition to your home. It is also a great way to bring in some personality and style to your kitchen. There are many cool space saving ways to make this happen without reducing the function of your kitchen. Anywhere from utilizing the little end nook at the end of your cabinets as a hiding spot for your office and filing to the end wall that has no purpose in your room. Or consider trying your office area as the spot in your kitchen to bring in the new floang open shelving. This is popping up all over the decorang world. Don’t be afraid to bring in the fun and funky fur chair here or maybe the green alligator print stool that you just couldn’t do at your island because it was too risky. Add in a few wall file shelves and message board and that may be all you need to make it all come together. It doesn’t have to be a big area to make a huge impact and you won’t be sorry you did.

So, til next time, it’s That Girl Shannon saying, “Now I am inspired to go home to google myself a great recipe for this rainy day and let Sam Hunt serenade me! Yummy!” (Wink wink)

Want to avoid a distracted driving ticket? We’ll tell you how

This newspaper is recyclable

If the past four months are any indication, police across Saskatchewan will issue around 1,000 distracted driving tickets during the month of October -- maybe more, since it’s the focus of this month’s Traffic Safety Spotlight. The numbers of distracted drivers have gotten out of hand. Since most distracted driving tickets are for cell-

phone use while driving, keeping your phone “out of hand� is a great place to start if you want to avoid a ticket. Despite the $280 fine, four demerits and vehicle impoundments for repeat offenders, too many drivers are still making it too easy for police to keep setting monthly records for distracted driving tickets. “The provincial govern-

ment is seriously looking at tougher penalties to deter this dangerous behaviour,� said Minister responsible for SGI Joe Hargrave. “So put the phone away, avoid other distractions and keep your focus on the road.� Here are a few more tips to keep in mind: Do mount your phone on your dash or -- better yet -stash it in the glovebox or

backseat, so you keep your hands o it. Experienced drivers can use voice-activated functions. Learner and Novice drivers can’t use a phone at all. Don’t use your phone if you’re behind the wheel. Don’t hold it, look at it, or manipulate it. Not even at red lights. Do pull over to the side of the road and park your vehicle if there is a text you absolutely need to send or a call you need to make. Don’t text or talk while you are driving. If it’s on speakerphone and you’re holding it in front of your face while driving, that’s still going to get you a ticket. Do set the playlist, start the podcast, or program the GPS before the trip. Don’t watch Netflix, YouTube or videos, even if your phone is mounted. Do let your co-pilot have the phone and let them reply to messages and snap the selfies so you can keep your eyes on the road Don’t scroll or engage with social media -- that Snap, Like or Share can wait. Don’t pay more attention to your coffee, passengers, make-up, or lost item in your bag than the safe operation of your vehicle Do #JustDrive. Even more important than avoiding a ticket is preventing a collision that could kill or injure someone. Driver distraction or inattention is one of the leading factors contributing to road fatalities and injuries. Think about all the things that already demand your attention while you’re driving: maintaining speed, navigating your route, watching for pedestrians and other road users, making sure your vehicle is in the lane, obeying traďŹƒc signals and signs. Now imagine doing all that while splitting your attention between the road and a 11-centimetre screen. Distracted driving is hard. Driving without distractions is much easier. Do give it a shot, so you don’t get a ticket.

Here’s the reffed of the story By Laura Kish thecitizen@sasktel.net

An Officiating Certification Clinic was held in Kipling on Sunday, Oct. 27th where officials, both young and experienced, first had 4 hours of classtime learning followed by on-ice instruction. Instructors Derek Coderre and Curtis Geisler led the classes, Senior and Junior, going over a variety of topics. The Junior Clinic, led by Geisler, is usually for younger officials age 1115. The Junior Clinic deals with rules, preparation, positioning, off side, icing and penalties which are the basics to adequately prepare for a game. As officials do not get the opportunity to ‘practice’ they learn as they go, knowing that mistakes will be made along the way. “It takes a hockey ‘community’ to groom a young official to the point they can handle a majority of situations on the ice,” says Kevin Marton, a 30-year veteran referee who also sat in on the Senior Clinic. “SHA has a grassroots program to help with young officials as

well of which I am also a part of.” Officials who are in their 3rd and 4th year go to the Senior Clinic which was instructed by Coderre. Coderre has been instructing clinics such as this for the past eight years and officiating for 34. “I started in the ‘80s when I was 12 or 13,” states Coderre and adds “I played hockey and then got into officiating. I refed as high as the Sask Junior League, Midget AA, Senior and Supervised Leagues.” When asked why he does it (officiates) his response was simply “the love for the game”. “I like being involved with the game, I like being involved with the people, fellow officials, camaraderie, a little extra spending money, but most of all it’s just because I love the game of hockey,” says Coderre. Coderre has officiated for all age groups but says he is getting into more of the coaching side of hockey meaning coaching officials so supervising the Midget AA, Bantam AA but still on the ice for the minor hockey.

Coderre went over important information everyone needs as an official. A variety of moves were discussed and whether they’re a penalty or not including Body Checking, Boarding, Charging, Elbowing, Kneeing, Spearing, Cross Checking and whether to call it a minor, major or game misconduct. He explained in great detail many different situations or scenarios in a game. Once certified, it is essential that an official continue to update and be completely familiar with new rule interpretations and officiating techniques. To maintain one’s present level of certification, an individual must attend a full Hockey Canada officiating program clinic and write a national examination every year with appropriate passing mark. As officials continue to develop and move into higher levels of hockey the expectation that comes with that is a great understanding of the rules. Officials were encouraged to take the time to review all fouls of the game. As official, expect at

Remember that the rule book provides you with the best tools to deal with coaches and players. The more familiar you are with the rule book the easier it will be to deal with conflict and unusual situations you encounter. Understanding how or why there is conflict is a good step to help resolve it. It is important that all officials put themselves in a position to be safe in hockey both on and off the ice.

biggest oīenders. EliminaƟng ONE or ALL of these foods for a minimum of 6 weeks will help determine if they are reacƟng to these foods. A history of anƟbioƟc use can also lead to skin issues, and ironically anƟbioƟcs are given to treat acne. This is a short-term soluƟon that can actually cause more problems in the long run. Taking a good probioƟc, one that needs to be kept in the fridge, will help replenish the good bacteria that the body needs for a healthy immune system, digesƟve system and skin. Hormones imbalances, in both men and women, can also trigger skin problems. Increasing good omega 3’s faƩy oils (Ňax oil, olive oil, salmon and other cold water Įsh as well as supplemenƟng with Omega 3 capsules) will work to balance hormones and reduce the inŇammaƟon that leads to skin problems. And Įnally, stress. In a perfect world we’d all live blissfully unaware of any day to day stressors, but as this is not possible, working to reduce stress levels is key to healthy skin and overall wellness. MeditaƟon/prayer, moderate exercise and good sleep go a long way to help reduce our percepƟon of stress. Vitamin C is an inexpensive and very important Vitamin to help reduce stress AND heal the skin. My favorite is Ascorbate SAP as it is well tolerated and very eīecƟve. The issues with our skin are not ‘just skin deep’ and someƟmes it takes a liƩle while to Įgure out the root cause, but once this is known, it is so much easier to manage and to LOVE THE SKIN YOU’RE IN. I hope that this has been helpful. If you have any quesƟons please do not hesitate to contact me at wellness@harmonyhealthsk.ca or 306-224-0012. In Health, Dr Wendy

years!!” Marton’s daughters Mariah (19) and Makenna (15) have also taken up officiating. “This is not just a pastime, it is a passion and we call it the ‘brotherhood’ as we all stick together and encourage each other to get better every game. It gives us so many life skills that we all need later in life,” Marton explains and adds “Dealing with conflict. Making friends. Dealing with the ups and downs in life. Good luck to all officials and have a great season!

Dr. Wendy’s Natural Life News Dry skin – Acne – Eczema – Psoriasis – Rosacea … These are many of the common skin concerns my paƟents come to see me about and with the cold, dry, winter weather these issues tend to get much worse. OŌen my paƟents have tried hundreds of dollars worth of topical creams and “miracle cures” only to be leŌ with the same problems. So, what are some alternaƟves? Looking for the root cause is the answer. The skin is a mirror of what is going on inside the body. It is directly linked to the diet and digesƟon as well as anƟ-bioƟc use, hormones and stress. Food sensiƟviƟes are a very common trigger for skin issues due to their impact on overall digesƟon. Even if someone does not have digesƟve pain, they can sƟll have food intolerances. Dairy, wheat and sugar are the

place to keep you safe from abuse and harassment. Communication is key! Open the line of communication with linesmen and refs. It goes a long ways. Try to de-escalate situations and take control. Deal with situations that may arise which includes dealing with the fans. Always be learning to become a better official. Be confident in yourself. Have a passion for it. Enjoy yourself. “I started officiating in 1987-88,” explains Marton. “So that means I have been doing this for over 30

and automation classes to their students. Robotics and Automation classes, which include coding, are now available for Grade 7-12 students, ensuring classrooms are meeting the needs of 21st century students. “Our government continues to provide Saskatchewan students with relevant classroom opportunities that will prepare them for emerging careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics,” Deputy Premier and Education Minister Gordon Wyant said. “Saskatchewan’s classrooms are meeting the needs of today’s student, by providing them with the handson, practical skill development found in these classes.” At the high school level, Robotics and Automation 10,20,30 fulfills the Practical and Applied Arts (PAA) elective required for high school graduation, while content from the Robotics and Automation curricula may also be taught in PAA courses at the Grade 7-9 level. These courses were developed in collaboration with teacher experts around the province with input from stakeholder organizations, including: • Saskatchewan Polytechnic;

• Regina District Industry Education Council; • Yardi Systems Canada Ltd; • Innovation Saskatchewan; • SaskTech; • Let’s Talk Science; • SaskCode; and • SeedMaster. The new classes were piloted in 18 school divisions, including the Conseil des écoles fransaskoises, and four First Nations education authorities last year, and are now available to all school divisions. “Through funding from Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada, the Saskatoon Industry Education Council (SIEC) developed SaskCode—a robotics and coding program based on K-12 curricular outcomes,” SIEC Executive Director Janet UchaczHart said. “With our continued partnership with school divisions and with the new Robotics and Automation curriculum, Saskatchewan youth will be well-equipped with the skills they need to be prepared for future studies and STEM courses which lead to the jobs of the future.” Boards of education will determine what schools will offer these classes within their division, supporting the local needs of their students.

GERARD KRECSY

HATTIE COOK

Hattie Cook passed away at the Broadview Centennial Lodge on Monday, October 14, 2019, at the age of 94 years. Hattie was born on the farm in the Landsdowne area on January 23, 1925. She was the Âżrst of Âżve children of Charles and May Cross. Growing up, Hattie was an outside’ person largely being her father’s helper. She did all sorts of farm work, like raking hay and was proÂżcient in working with horses. In about 1941, the Crosses built a new barn and, as customary, put on 1 or 2 barns dances after its completion. Harvey Cook was an attendee at the dances; the spark had ignited. After that he continued to show up at the Cross farm on Sunday afternoons coming with a horse and buggy and bringing chocolates. Shortly after, Harvey enlisted in the Air Force and was stationed in Western Canada. Hattie would take the horses to retrieve the mail at the Landsdowne corner, as Harvey faithfully would write to her. Harvey and Hattie were married on November 14, 1945. The Âżrst year was spent farming with horses. In 1947, they moved south of Windthorst, and in 1949, moved back to the Golden Plain area where they farmed till 1987. Hattie always retained her love and passion for horses. Hattie worked hard on the farm. Along with her husband, they would milk up to 30 cows, raise up to 100 pigs and they grain farmed. Harvey often told people he had total conÂżdence in Hattie’s ability to do the chores in the yard when he had to work in the Âżeld. Hattie had a large garden and “acresâ€? of Ă€owers. In 1987, Harvey and Hattie moved to Whitewood where Hattie continued to grow a garden and an abundance of Ă€owers. She took great joy in preparing savoury meals and did fantastic baking that never lasted long. The grandchildren viewed Grandma’s rhubarb pie as famous and is yet to be surpassed. Both Harvey and Hattie enjoyed their music and Hattie would often sing as she worked around the kitchen. They enjoyed attending old-time dances. Harvey and Hattie were able to spend 19 winters in Texas enjoying the sun and spending time with friends. Hattie was predeceased by her husband, Harvey, in 2015 and by her son, Brian, in 2017; sister, Mildred Sproat; in-laws: Enos Sproat, Eileen Cross, Ellen Gair and Arthur & Bernice Cook. She is survived by her children, Roger (Darlene) Cook, Orville Cook, daughter-in-law, Kim Cook and her grandchildren and great grandchildren: Neill (Shauna) Cook and their children Reece & Emily; Daniel (Selena) Cook and their daughters Addison, Brooklyn & Caitlyn; Raylene (John) Hagan; Jeff (Rhonda) Cook and their children Samantha, Zoey & Jake; Jason Cook and his children Brady, Shayda, Jaxon, Creston & Adelaide; Jasmine Cook (Kyle Rosenau) and their children Ryker & Kamry; Cory (Darla) Cook and their children Mitchel & Brianna; Clayton (Mona) Cook and their children Zack, Austin & Samantha; Tammy (Chris) Picard and their children Nicholas, Abagail, Elizabeth & William. She is also survived by her siblings Murray Cross, Lane (Jeanette) Cross & Elsie (Alvin) Schaefer; in-laws Bill Gair, Louise (Henry) Klippenstein. It is with debt of gratitude that we thank Broadview Centennial Lodge for their exceptional kind and compassionate care given to Hattie during these last 4 years. Hattie’s funeral service was held Wednesday, October 23, 2019, at the Whitewood Evangelical Missionary Church with Pastors Joseph Steeves and Samuel Jung ofÂżciating. The musician, Linda Beutler, led in the hymns, “The Old Rugged Crossâ€?, “Amazing Graceâ€? and “How Great Thou Artâ€?. Scripture was read by Raylene Hagan and Daniel Cook, the eulogy was given by Neill Cook, tributes were presented by Donna Cross, on behalf of Lane Cross, and by Clayton Cook. A poem, “A Limb Fallenâ€?, was read by Kim Cook, and Faith King-Bachman sang a song of celebration, “How Beautiful Heaven Must Beâ€?. Interment took place in Sunset Memorial Gardens, Moosomin, with Hattie’s grandchildren acting as pallbearers. Arrangements were entrusted to Matthews Funeral Home, Melville and Whitewood.

Kipling Magyars Senior Boys earn silver Submitted by Mel Gesell

The Kipling Sr Boys c o m p e t e d a t Wi n s t o n Knoll recently. The boys

came out swinging and played fantastic all weekend. Being the only 3A team at a 5A tournament the boys began the tournament expecting to work

hard, and their grit defi nitely paid off. Greenall was the only team we were unable to defeat all weekend, and we took them to a third set both when we

played them in the round robin and the final. Other teams Kipling played and defeated throughout the weekend included Leboldus, Campbell, Winston

Knoll and Riffel, all 5A Regina High Schools. The Kipling Sr Boys competed in Mustang Volley last weekend at Mount Royal High School in Sas-

katoon, where they saw teams of similar caliber. This weekend the boys are playing at Yorkton Regional which will also have teams of a high caliber.

Prairie farm groups release results of seed royalty survey Producers have conclusive views about trailing and end-point royalties Canadian agricultural producers do not support the two seed royalty models under consideration by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. The Alberta Federation

of Agriculture, the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan and Keystone Agricultural Producers of Manitoba have been surveying producers online on the proposed changes since July.

Stand Out From The Crowd

More than 1000 producers contributed their comments. “We look forward to working with the federal government now that the election is complete to ensure that any new seed royalty structure is ultimately fair for farmers and producers as it would ultimately impact their bottom line the most,� KAP President Bill Campbell said. “Plant breeding

needs to be funded in a manner that is fair and driven by the interests of farmers.� “What we heard from producers is that they are not in a position to absorb extra costs,� said Todd Lewis, president of the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan. “As price-takers, farmers have little room in their margins for added expenditures. So there is

little support for yet another expense to add our bottom lines.� “Producers are telling us loud and clear that they are not happy with either of the proposed models,� said Lynn Jacobson, president of the Alberta Federation of Agriculture. “Our outreach confirms that they don’t feel they’ve been sufficiently engaged in consultations to date. It’s our hope that AAFC will

work to rectify this before any further decisions are made.� Consultations on the two proposed seed royalty structures are currently on hold. The farm groups were unhappy with the lack of producer input in the consultations and decided to survey producers themselves. The survey results will be presented to the new federal agriculture minister.
