NEW PLAYGROUND

Ribbon cutting at Glenella School Page 2

Toonies for the community

PHOTOS BY KIRA PATERSON

On June 2, HMK wrapped up their big fundraising campaign with their Walk for Toonies. The walk was originally scheduled for May 31, when the school held a barbecue fundraiser and Dairy Queen donated half their profits between 5:00 and 8:00 pm. The walk was rescheduled due to rain.

A few weeks prior to that, HMK students took home envelopes to collect pledges.

So far, they have a total of $21,000 to put towards a new play structure; that doesn’t include the $15,000 grant from BPCF and the possible $15,000 from Community Foundations of Canada.

After four years of fundraising and planning, Glenella School has a brand new play structure.

They had the official ribbon cutting to unveil the new structure on Tuesday, June 7.

The playground committee applied for grants from Hometown Manitoba and the Beautiful Plains Community Foundation to help pay for the $40,000 structure. They also got large donations from Neepawa Royal Bank, Glenella Nursery School and Turtle River School Division. The committee also organized many fundraising events over the past few years.

The playground went up over the first weekend of May, with members of the community and the playground committee volunteering their time to help set it up. The structure itself came from Blue Imp Recreational Products.

At the ribbon cutting, representatives from the organizations that supported the project had the honour of using one of the pairs of scissors. Only representatives from Neepawa RBC and Hometown Manitoba were unable to attend.

After the official playground opening, Glenella School principal Paul McDonald announced phase two of the playground project. The next addition to the playground will be a volleyball court for the high school students.

Spiced cake doughnuts Last week, my grandson came over after school and asked me to help him make doughnuts, as he was giving a class presentation and he chose doughnuts to talk about. So grandma dug out one of her older cookbooks for a cake doughnut recipe and Keegan mixed and cut out doughnuts for his class mates. He enjoyed the end results and commented that I should put the recipe in the paper, so here it is.

By John Drinkwater The Neepawa Banner Hosted by Tourism Westman, the 13th annual Tribute to Tourism Awards gala took place at Carberry Community Hall, on Wednesday, June 1.

The Marketing award recognizes a marketing campaign that contributes to promoting Southwestern Manitoba as a quality destination and demonstrates effectiveness in increasing tourism to the area. Winner, Vern May of Minnedosa, has developed the “Inclusive and Collaborative” marketing strategy. The execution of this campaign included active engagement of the media; print advertising in new markets; social media; online video; addressing “What’s in it for me?” and new billboards. During 2015, more than 240

articles were published under Vern’s byline in 16 publications, attendance at yearly events in Minnedosa increased from Saskatchewan and Alberta, Minnedosa’s Facebook page weekly average visits reached 5,122, with the busiest week seeing 36,000 viewers and more than 20,000 viewers have seen the online video promoting the community.

May received the award from Lillian Tankard representing sponsor, Travel Manitoba. He said, “I feel overwhelmed considering the record number of nominees and strong competition in all categories.

It’s important we involve youth in our communities.

The best way to promote tourism is as the parent of a five year old. Prior to our arrival in Minnedosa, we tried to get our son Oscar excited about the move. He

An unnecessary choice

Turning the big ship around Everyone has their hand out to the government

M

anitoba had an NDP government for 17 years.

The voters overwhelmingly switched to a PC Manitoba government in last spring’s election. Last fall, voters tossed out a CPC federal government in favour of a Liberal majority. Voters, in both cases, wanted a big change. It’s interesting to watch how slowly actual change comes.

Federally, the voters were promised a quick decision on marijuana. It didn’t happen. There were promises of big changes in the field of assisted suicide.

That didn’t happen either and the bill is being delayed. Now the bigger debate is whether the government can pass a bill that will satisfy the Supreme Court of Canada. Certainly, the Liberals could pass any bill they like, but the Senate may or may not approve it.

The bigger part of the debate is whether the court will approve it. Isn’t it wonderful that we can have a law voted on by 338 duly elected MPs and have it overturned by seven appointed judges? Great system isn’t it?

The consistent message across Canada and in Manitoba is that change takes a long time. Ideas spring up a dime a dozen. Decisions take a lot longer. Action takes even longer. It’s a wonder our country or our province actually functions at all. Don’t even start on how slow things happen at the municipal level.

Manitobans who voted PC are disappointed that the last NDP fiscal year came in at a billion dollar deficit. That means that the province spent a 1,000 million dollars more than they took in.

That’s over $1.75 million a day more than they took in. Wow. What’s also disappointing is that the PC Manitoba Party isn’t going to reduce it all that much. They

are going to conduct a review of spending that will start this fall and take heaven knows how long to complete.

Governments just move slowly and it doesn’t seem to matter who is in power, it’s just the way it is. They say it takes a long time to turn a big ship. Government has become a way bigger ship than it should be. Why has that happened? The answer lies in the pages of history. Canada, and in fact most of North America, at one time had little or no government intervention. Certainly, the first people known to inhabit this continent had some local governing, but it was pretty much a tribal free trade situation.

There wasn’t much government or government control. The British Crown granted two guys a mandate to develop most of North America and in 1670, the Hudson’s Bay Company was formed. Until the early 1800s, the HBC pretty much ruled North America. In 1870, they sold a huge amount of land to what was becoming Canada. It wasn’t long before tax driven initiatives were shaping our future. The gov-

”

ernment put a huge amount of money into the Canadian Pacific Railway and we have been going back to the taxpayer for money with an ever increasing intensity ever since.

Little happens in Canada without the conversation quickly swinging over to “I wonder how many government grants we can get?” It doesn’t matter if it’s health care, education, infrastructure, community facilities, community programs, whatever.

Everyone has their hand out to government. It is said that one third of the working population works for the government. Many more are either on pension or depend on government contracts.

That’s all well and good, but those who take the initiative and actually create jobs have a huge tax and regulation burden that is heavy at best and oppressive at worst.

We need a much greater private sector involvement in our economy. Many governments, unions and voters don’t see that need and so it will indeed take a long time to turn the big ship around.

here do we want our young offenders to be spending their time? The Winnipeg School Division board chair would like to see them in school. This week, Mark Wasyliw, who is also a defence lawyer, proposed a pilot project that would move bail and probation officers into the division’s schools. The school board will vote on the proposal later this month.

MY If it’s passed, the provincial PERSPECTIVE government will have to approve the project beate fore it can be ackman tkinson implemented.

Wasyliw explained that in order to meet with their probation officers, which many offenders must do weekly, young offenders must travel to an industrial area in St. James. For most students, this takes three bus trips and half of a school day. In the pilot project, the bail and probation officers would rotate through the different schools and meet with students in discrete office space.

Wasyliw was quoted by the CBC, saying, “I’ve been a defence lawyer for 17 years and I've acted for young people who have been arrested and denied bail over what we call technical breaches.” He explained that these breaches can include failing to sign a form once a week at a probation office and can result in the youths’ re-arrest.

The proposal could prove to be a solution that is beneficial to both young offenders and the justice system. School is where the students should be and Wasyliw was quoted as saying, “These students are often at high risk, they're living pretty unstable lives …. whatever we can do to keep them in a caring, safe structured environment, like a school, will help them.”

According to Statistics Canada, in 2014, there were almost 101,000 youth aged 12 to 17 accused of Criminal Code violations (excluding traffic) in Canada. While youth make up seven per cent of the Canadian population, they still comprise 13 per cent of persons accused of crime. This is despite a youth crime rate that has been falling from a peak in 1991.

Not surprisingly, Stats Can reports that police-reported youth crime usually involves relatively minor offences. In 2014, the most frequent criminal offences committed by Canadian youth were theft of $5,000 and under, mischief, cannabis possession and common assault, which is one of the less serious violent crimes. These are the sorts of crimes that don’t necessarily point to a violent and criminal future.

It’s time to find some new solutions. Manitoba has one of the country’s highest crime rates and the same holds for youth offenders. We need to find ways of keeping today’s young offenders from becoming tomorrow’s adult offenders.

Manitoba has the fifth highest rate of youth crime and the second highest outside of northern Canada. In 2014, 7.798 per cent of Manitoba youth between 12 and 17 were accused of a crime; this is close to double the rate found in other provinces, such as British Columbia, Quebec and Ontario.

It’s time to look at other alternatives. Studies have shown that as education levels, particularly at the high school level, rise, participation in crime declines. Data also shows that incarceration makes a student less likely to complete high school. For most young offenders, school is where they should be. Anything that’s taking them out of the classroom is potentially having a significant impact on their future.

The goal is for young offenders to put their bad choices and criminal pasts behind them and go on to be productive members of our society. Making them choose between missing school and complying with their bail or parole conditions shouldn’t be a choice with which they are regularly faced.

You have to play the hand you’re dealt

O

ver the past few months, in addition to the federal election, voters in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba each elected new provincial governments.

Of the four groups of voters, only those in Saskatchewan saw fit to return the governing party to power. The other three elections saw massive shifts in the vote. The Liberals were swept into power federally. The NDP ended over 40 years of Conservative rule in Alberta, while the PCs did the same to the NDP here in Manitoba.

But the next day, it was business as usual. Just as new governments have always done, the three new ones identified above began blaming the previous administration for “the mess that we have inherited.” New parties may have been in power, but there was nothing new about the blaming game in which they engaged or the arrogance they displayed while doing it.

Now these activities may produce good sound bites for TV and shift public opinion in the new government’s favor. But

FAITHFULLY YOURS Neil Strohschein they indicate a significant lack of respect for the good things done by past cabinet ministers, elected representatives and civil servants; along with a flagrant (perhaps deliberate) ignoring of one important fact; namely, that it really doesn’t matter who sits behind the Prime Minister’s desk in Ottawa or the Premier’s desk in Winnipeg.

The conditions in the country and in the province are the same the day after the election as they were the night before.

Every new government has to pick up where the previous one left off. To use a phrase familiar to Poker or Blackjack players, “you have to play the hand you’re dealt.” Blaming the previous government for “the mess we’re in” does no one any good at all. What one government does to its predecessor, that govern-

ment’s successor will do to it. It’s been that way since Confederation.

So how do we avoid this blaming game? Ancient wisdom can help us here.

St. Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians was written to a church that had split into four identifiable groups, each of which followed a different leader.

Three followed human leaders (preachers)—some followed Paul, some followed Apollos and some were loyal to Peter. A fourth group rejected all human leadership and claimed to follow Jesus alone. Instead of drawing strength and encouragement from the Scriptures, the Corinthians spent all their time arguing over who had the right teaching and who didn’t; something that angered Paul to no end.

In no uncertain terms, he clarified his role in their

church. He was the one who had “laid the foundation.” He was the first one to preach the gospel in Corinth, to organize those who believed into a local church and to teach them the basics of the Christian faith. When Paul left Corinth, Apollos continued what Paul began. Others did the same after Apollos left. Those who followed Paul built on the foundation that he had laid. Paul’s advice to them all was this—be careful what you build. The consequences of your actions will be around long after you are gone.

We live in a democratic society. In a democratic society, elections are held every four years. If we (the voters) don’t like the current administration, we can vote them out and put someone else in charge.

That’s what happened in Alberta, Manitoba and Ottawa. Every new government builds its program on the foundation laid by all the governments that preceded it. They need to follow Paul’s advice. Be careful what you build.

Your children and grandchildren will have to live with the results.

Everything old is new again...

T

he tiny house movement is apparently taking America by storm. I admit, I am intrigued by the concept, even watch the television show whenever I can. The settlers of the Canadian prairies mastered tiny house living. My motherin-law could recall living in a soddie, also known in Mennonite culture as a semlin. Basically a home built of sod, dug down into the earth before forming the walls of sod grass.

Even the roof was made of earth. One door, perhaps a window, luxury if it was a glass one, practical if it was one of oiled paper.

The first log cabins would qualify as a tiny house as well. A ten by twelve foot cabin was enough space to raise a growing family.

Not saying I would have wanted to call these small crowded abodes home, but

HOMEBODIES Rita Friesen they worked. Now there is a movement that is encouraging folks to get a tiny house and place it on their property as a home for their aged parent. We did that before as well. I know of more than one farm home that had a small, one room home where a relative lived.

Granny LaPointe loved hers. She could retreat from the noise and bustle of her daughter’s home, filled with the love and laughter of ten children, and seek seclusion within the frame of the family yard. Double bonus, she could come across for any meal she was invited to, and

t was music in my ears to hear the children perform in the school bands. More than one school in the valley was represented and at times they combined the efforts. It was so nice to see the schools work together to give us two full hours of band music. Some of those young people are in their last year of high school and will move on or away after this summer. They will be missed,

a grandchild needing a bit of one on one could sneak away for hugs and cookies.

Assisted independence at it’s best. We have become carried away with bigger and better and filled every nook and cranny with stuff. I can see the appeal of simplifying life, with a tiny house, you can only own a limited amount of anything.

The other fad is recycling. I hope it is more than a fad, we need to make it a way of life. But folks are refurbishing unused furniture into usable pieces. Not that I always think the finished result

is a thing of beauty, but I didn’t do the work! Turning a bed headboard into a garden bench – interesting. Turning an antique, unused pump organ into a work station, computer, printer and accessories all in one confined space, well, that’s ingenious. There are a hundred and one things you can make out of pallets. Again, some simply use up pallets, and other projects could be useful.

Upright against a yard fence to become an herb garden works for me, but the patio bar, not so much.

Here is my age and era speaking. Back on the farm, we didn’t throw much out.

One never knew when that scrap of lumber, that piece of angle iron or tin would be required for a patch job somewhere, or a start to a new project. And so it goes, everything old is new again.

but others will take their place. I believe it is one of the greatest assets in the schools if they can provide music.

Making music is as old as the Bible, where we read how David played for the kings and to God. He even reminds us in the Psalm 144:9 “I will sing a new song to Thee, O God ….” The children in Minitonis sang their hearts out at the Bloomfest. Psalm 150 tells us to praise Him with trumpet sound. We heard some beautiful trumpet music last night.

Music will uplift the smallest baby and the most elderly around us.

Letters Canada is lawless At midnight on Monday, June 6, Canada became a lawless society. That day, the government announced, with quiet pride, that Bill C-14 could be acted upon by physicians even though the Senate had not signed the bill, nor the Commons ratified it. Now doctors can assist suicides without fear of legal retribution.

As I listened to the minister of health give her speech with tenderness and compassion towards the suffering masses out there just waiting to die, I felt sick to my stomach. I thought about writing to the prime minister and health minister, but I know those letters would be ignored. So to you, the people I can reach, think about what has just happened.

The law has not been passed! It is being allowed to be acted upon without legal recourse! Whether or not you agree with the substance of the law, this should be a cause of outrage. Has not Canada's great pride been its being understood as a land of opportunity, civilization, compassion, tolerance, freedom of expression and safety?

Safety just walked away.

If this law can be implemented before being properly passed, it sets a precedence for any other law that the government might like to pass as well.

What will that affect? Think about it — what freedom that you presently enjoy could be taken away? What privacy that you have now could be removed? All of it done for the betterment of society as a whole?

Individual rights will erode and the welfare of the state as a whole will begin. Does this sound at all familiar to you?

In my opinion, Canada just took a giant step towards George Orwell's prophetic classic ‘1984’.

If you have never read it, please do. At least then you'll know where this country is going. If that is what you want, fine, be silent. But if you are as shocked as I am, say something!

Linda Rioux, Rapid City

Keeping a sacred place As just one of the multitude who has a loved one, or a family member, interred at Riverside Cemetery, I want to express my appreciation for all the hard work that goes into making the place look lovely. Winter or summer, the grounds are beautiful. Replacement trees carefully placed and planted, and now the array of colour from the petunias. As a gardener, I cannot imagine the daunting task of planting 55,000 dozen of plants!

Thank you to the management and staff working there, and thank you to family and community members that maintain their loved ones plots. It is a sacred space, filled with calmness and serenity.

Concert to help fund repairs to local landmark

By Kira Paterson The Neepawa Banner

PHOTO BY KATE JACKMAN-ATKINSON

Sidewalk repairs are just one of the projects Knox Presbyterian Church is hoping to undertake.

A long-standing landmark in Neepawa is in need of some tender, loving care. The Knox Presbyterian Church, located on the corner of First Avenue and Mill Street, has some repairs that need to get done and the church board is looking to the community for support.

They put new shingles on the roof of the church two years ago, but they still need to do some work on parts of the sidewalk, some of the stonework and the basement. The building itself is 124 years old, so it’s no surprise that some of it needs fixing. The first project to be tackled is the sidewalk that leads to the back door of the church.

Not only is the building a place of worship for the Presbyterian denomination in town, but it also is a much used community venue. “We are very blessed to worship and have lots of concerts and many community events through this place,” said Jeanie Lee, minister at the Presbyterian Church for the past seven years.

The church has been said to have the best acoustics in town and has therefore been the site of many concerts and musical events in the community over the years. It has played host to the Neepawa and District Fine Arts Festival, Neepawa Community Choir, Neepawa Choraliers, NACI Chorale and more.

Walk for Alzheimer’s coming to a town near

By Kira Paterson The Neepawa Banner Throughout the month of June, communities across Manitoba are coming together to support those suffering with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. This year marks the 24th annual Walk for Alzheimer’s (formerly called the Memory Walk), raising money for the Alzheimer’s Society of Manitoba (ASM).

There are three communities in the Banner coverage area hosting walks in the coming weeks.

Neepawa’s Walk for Alzheimer’s, organized by Home Assistance Neepawa and District, will be on Thursday, June 16. Registration will begin at 5 pm at the Country Meadows Personal Care Home and the walk is set to begin at 6. There will also be a barbecue following the walk at the Fireside Patio.

Food and drinks have been donated by Shop Easy, Coop, Giant Tiger, Safeway/ Sobeys and Hylife. The Handy Van will be making stops at the north door of Kinsmen Kourts and Elks Manor for anyone wanting a ride out to Country Meadows.

The next day, Friday, June 17, McCreary Alonsa Health Unit will be hosting their walk. It starts at the McCreary/Alonsa Health Centre and Personal Care Home in McCreary. There will be a family barbecue right before, starting at noon.

Then, on Thursday, June 23, Gladstone Area

Senior Support Program has organized their fourth annual walk. It will start at 5 pm at the Theatre Courtyard next to the Seniors Drop-in Centre. There will be a barbecue with hot dogs and ice cream. There is indoor and outdoor eating space. The path for the walk will go down the street to the Wellness Trail and along the way, there will be bits of information to read and memorize for a memory “quiz” at the end of the walk.

Pledge sheets for collecting money before the

Welcome to the gun show

By Kira Paterson The Neepawa Banner The guns were out last weekend in Neepawa. On Saturday, June 4, the Neepawa Wildlife Association (NWA) held their annual Gun and Collectibles Show at the Yellowhead Centre Arena. Harris Lowe, one of the organizers of the event, said that although attendance numbers were down, it went really well.

Last year, the show took place on the same weekend as the Neepawa and Area

Fair, while this year, it happened the week after the fair. Lowe said that that was probably one of the reasons the numbers went down from about 400 last year to about 250 who came this year.

However, last year, many in attendance were only there to kill time while they were at the fair. “The exhibitors are happier to have 200 people there to buy than 400 people just waking around, killing time,” he said.

There were 26 exhibitors

with 64 tables set up in total this year. Lowe noted that the exhibitors were happy with the outcome and most of them said they would come back next year. He said that next year, they hope to have about 30 exhibitors with around 80 tables. They would also like to expand a bit more in the antique and collectibles side of the show, just to get some more variety.

The money raised from admission to the show will go to fund Lake Irwin aeration to keep the fish

139th anniversary event to help fundraise for repairs Continued from page 6 On the less musical side of things, the church is also where the local Girl Guides groups meet each week.

This year, the congregation is celebrating its 139th anniversary mid-June. The church board is using the anniversary as an opportunity for a fundraising event. On Saturday, June 18, the Knox Presbyterian Church will be hosting a concert, featuring pianist Jane Son. As well, four members of the NACI Chorale will be performing as special guests. The concert starts at 7:00 pm and there will be a donation collection with all money raised going to repair costs. “[The board has] decided to open this opportunity of good cause to our community of Neepawa and area so that we can carry on this beautiful heritage building together for our next generation,” said Lee. In addition to the Saturday night concert, the church will be having a special anniversary celebration on Sunday. They have a special worship service set for 11:00 am that day with a barbecue lunch to follow.

Everyone in the community is welcome to attend and donations can be tax deductible. To be able to claim a tax return, donors must put money in

an envelope clearly marked “Building Repair Fund”.

Donations can be given at the concert or mailed in to 396 First Ave., Box 445, Neepawa, MB, R0J 1H0.

population healthy during the winter.

The show also marked the kick off of a raffle contest this year, put on by three local clubs. The NWA, as well as the Yellowhead Bowhunters archery club and the Neepawa Rifle Club have partnered together to raise money through a raffle contest with several different prizes up for grabs. Anyone wanting to support these local groups in that way can contact a member of any of the three clubs for more details.

Winnipeg gallery showcasing local artist

Currently on display at the Wayne Arthur Gallery, in St. Boniface, is artwork by Gerd Behrendt of Riding Mountain and his daughter Angela Lillico of Winnipeg.

Banner Staff The Neepawa Banner Gerd Behrendt of Riding Mountain and his daughter Angela Lillico of Winnipeg are co-hosting an art exhibit this month of their works at the Wayne Arthur Gallery on Provencher Ave. in St. Boniface. Behrendt farmed for a number of years at Langruth and is also a musician. He regularly plays his violin at Country Meadows in Neepawa.

The painting to Behrendt’s left is of evergreen trees at the Rosedale Farm, five miles west of Eden. The Neepawa Banner purchased the painting for display at their office at 243 Hamilton Street in downtown Neepawa.

Neepawa Banner and Press publisher, Ken Waddell said, “I chose that painting as I wanted to have one of Gerd’s art pieces and that particular one is of some historic interest. Gerd’s story is fascinating; one we have published a portion of in The Banner. The picture depicts the Rosedale Farm, which was a forerunner of

the Whitemud Watershed Conservation District. In 1971, the WWCD was the first one formed in Manitoba. It, and the Rosedale Farm, are a tribute to the vision of many men I worked with when I first came to Neepawa in 1971.”

Behrendt’s story was part of a WWII commemorative article in The Banner that won a provincial first place award for best historical story in 2015.

By Eoin Devereux The Neepawa Banner A pair of wins over the Austin A’s have helped the Neepawa Cubs to keep pace with the top teams in the Santa Clara Baseball League. Neepawa was able to bookend a disappointing loss to the Portage Padres on Friday, June 3, with a well earned 10-8 win in Austin on Wednesday, June 1, and a 8-2 victory over the A’s in Neepawa on Monday, June 6. Garrett Rempel picked up the win for

Neepawa from the Monday night performance, allowing no runs during his time on the mound. Meanwhile, at the plate, the Cubs jumped out to an early 2-0 lead after the opening inning. They doubled that lead in the second and added two additional runs in the fourth and fifth inning, respectively, to secure a comfortable 8-0 cushion heading into the late stages of the contest. A pair of runs in the top of the seventh by the A’s put an end to Neepawa’s shutout bid, but that was still not enough, as the Cubs closed out the night with the 8-2 decision.

This win helped to quickly put aside a disappointing 14-3 loss to the Portage Padres on Friday, June 3. Devin Tibbett ended up picking up the loss for the Cubs.

As of the Banner’s publication deadline of Wednesday, June 8, the Cubs had a 3-2 record and were two games back of the first place Plumas Pirates, who travelled to Neepawa for a game on Wednesday, June 8. Details on that game, as well as Neepawa’s Friday, June 10 showdown with the Minnedosa Mavericks will be in the Wednesday, June 15 edition of the Neepawa Press.

Neepawa Natives pleased with MJHL draft results

By Eoin Devereux The Neepawa Banner The Neepawa Natives are very happy with what transpired at the 2016 Manitoba Junior Hockey League draft. The team selected seven players in total during the event, which was held on Sunday, June 5 in Selkirk. Among those picks was defenceman Parker Malchuk of the Bantam AAA Yellowhead Chiefs, who was taken with the first overall pick. Malchuk, a Birtle product, accumulated eight goals and 19 assists for the Chiefs during the AAA regular season. Natives general manager Myles Cathcart said the scouting staff has watched Malchuk develop as a player and believe that his game is headed in the right direction. “[Malchuk] is a smart player whose game has developed nicely over the past year. He’s a well rounded defenceman, whose awareness on both ends of the ice will be a welcome addition,” said Cathcart.

In the second round, Neepawa picked forward Zak Smith of Austin.

Smith was a member of the Central Plains Capitals

last year and generated an impressive 83 points (33 goals - 50 assists). Cathcart said that Smith is a very dynamic offensive threat who is able to read the tempo of play on the ice as it develops and adjust his game accordingly The third pick for Neepawa was defenceman Ryan Gottfried, who played for the Winnipeg Hawks in the Winnipeg Bantam AAA league. Cathcart said that the youngster, who is already an imposing figure at 6’3” and 202 pounds, will be a very physical presence.

“He is an all-around defenceman, who plays a tough game and will definitely continue to grow,” indicated Cathcart.

In the fourth round, Neepawa picked up defenceman Conrad Solypa of the Eastman Selects.

Solypa generated 17 points in 32 regular season games. Cathcart noted he’s a skilled defender, who plays a heads up game. Dallon Wilton of Beausejour, Manitoba was taken in the fifth round.

Also a member of the Eastman Selects, Wilton was able to accumulate 48 points in 32 league games. Later on in the fifth

2016 Grey Owl Championship Submitted The Neepawa Banner The 56th annual edition of the Grey Owl Golf Tournament will be held June 10-12 at the Clear Lake course in Riding Mountain National Park. The 2016 field will consist of 235 golfers, with the first round in the 36-hole event starting on Friday, June 10 at 7:00 am, continuing Saturday and Sunday.

Garth Collings, of Breezy Bend, is the defending Grey Owl champion, as he won the title for the 10th time last year. Others expected to be contenders for the Cactus Jack Wells Memorial trophy are two-time champion Jarod Crane and 2014 champion Jared Jacobson, both of Brandon, and last year’s runner-up Travis Fifi of Shilo.

Rod Lindenberg of Brandon will be trying for two straight age 60-plus Senior division honours and the Glen Sinclair Memorial trophy. A new trophy will be dedicated in one of the Senior categories this year. The Rick Locke Memorial trophy will be inserted, honouring the memory of the long time Grey Owl treasurer who died one week after the 2015 tournament. The final round in the championship flight will start at 10:00am on Sunday, June 12.

The Grey Owl is one of the largest and longest-running golf tournaments of its kind in North America. The tournament was started in 1961 after Laurie Artiss, then sports editor of the Brandon Sun, and Bill Bell, the owner-operator of the Idylwylde Bungalows, came up with the idea of an early season tournament at Clear Lake.

round, the Natives used a pick they received from the Winkler Flyers to acquire Jaeger Lapointe. The Ste. Rose product notched 33 points in 36 games during the 2015-2016 season.

Neepawa’s final pick in this year’s draft, would see them select Zane McDonald of Minnedosa. The member of the Yellowhead Chiefs had 40 points in 33 regular season games last season.

The six round MJHL bantam draft is for players who are 15-years-old, born in 2001. Each of the 11 MJHL clubs are allowed to protect two bantam aged players from their local minor hockey association before the draft. For the Natives, they auto protected Bryan Todoruk of Neepawa this year.

The next event of note on ice for the Neepawa Natives is scheduled for July, when the team will hold a summer prospects camp in Brandon at the Sportsplex.

Registration will begin on Monday, July 4 at 10:00 am, while the on-ice sessions will take place on July 4 from 12:00 pm - 6:00 pm and Tuesday, July 5 from 11:30 am - 5:30 pm.

Neepawa hosts CN Future Links Prairie Championship The CN Future Links circuit is heading to Neepawa Golf and Country Club for the 2016 CN Future Links Prairie Championship. The fourth of six events in the series will welcome a field of 57 local and national junior golfers from June 10-12 as they compete in the 54-hole stroke play event.

The CN Future Links Championships are conducted in partnership with CN in an effort to support and develop junior golfers across Canada.

Competitors will participate in a practice round on June 9 to prepare for the course’s challenging landscape situated around the Whitemud River.

“Golf Canada is excited to see the field compete at Neepawa Golf and Country Club,” said Dan Hyatt, the event’s Tournament Director. “This scenic track winds around the river to offer fantastic views for spectators and players alike. Neepawa will present an excellent chance for these players to strengthen their games.”

Three competitors from last year’s top ten will return in a bid to capture the junior boys title, led by Keaton Gudz from Victoria, BC, who finished tied for fourth at the 2015 competition

Josie, as well as Hans’ sister Annette, have Type 1 Diabetes. Annette has had the disease since she was 12 and over the past 35 years, she has benefitted from the many great advancements in the treatment of diabetes.

The Pedersens asked donors to pledge Josie in the walk, and all members of the team pledged her as well. The team raised $1,685.

The walk is just one of

many ways the Pedersen family has supported JDRF. Each year, Josie and Rebecca-Lynn donate a portion of their own money from the sale of their 4-H steers. Josie has also held two very successful hot chocolate and cookie fundraisers in November to mark World Diabetes Day (Nov. 14).

In this year’s JDRF walk, there were three distance options: 2km, 5km or 7km walks. Team Josie took part in the 5 km walk. The walk is a national event and takes place every June.
