Southeast College and Weyburn Chamber partner for business breakfast Southeast College, the Weyburn Chamber of Commerce and the Ministry of the Economy are hosting a business breakfast on Thursday, March 26, 2015 for businesses who would like to learn more about the Canada-Saskatchewan Job Grant Program. "This is a chance for us to get together with some of our valued partners in the region and explain how the College can be an integral part of labour solutions," said Southeast College Vice President of Strategic Development Jeff Richards. "The College is committed to being a responsive and flexible trainer of choice for our region, and we are able to tailor and design programming for companies and organizations to build a more productive and higher-skilled work force." The Canada-Saskatchewan Job Grant is a federally funded program to help businesses with the costs associated with training new or existing employees. "Consistently, our member businesses identify skilled labour acquisition as an area of concern for their business and the Canada-Saskatchewan job grant is a valuable resource in that regard," said Rochelle Wendt, General Manager for the Weyburn Chamber of Commerce. "We have already begun to hear of employers having success with advancing the training level of some of their current employees through this program, and encourage employers to consider the grant program as a tool in their work to meet their ongoing labour needs." The breakfast will feature Larry Wells, Director of Labour Market Services for the Ministry of the Economy. Breakfast will begin at 7:30 a.m. in Room 150 of the Southeast College Campus, located in the City Centre Mall. Attendance at the breakfast is free, but space is limited. To register, please contact the Weyburn Campus of the Southeast College.

'Curl For Kids Sake' a success

The third annual Big Brothers Big Sisters Curl For Kids Sake, held March 14 at the Weyburn Curling Club, succeeded at raising their goal of $20,000.00 for programs in Weyburn. With 18 teams in attendance, curling, silent auctions, door prizes and beef on a bun provided by Prairie Sky Coop, the night exceeded all expectations of the Big Brothers Big Sisters Weyburn board and staff. "Every year it's fantastic to see the generosity of Weyburn and the support they provide to the children and families in the community," said BBBS Executive Director, Sharla Sept. "Every dollar raised stays in Weyburn and benefits the children and families of our community through mentoring programs. A big thank you goes out the corporate sponsors, curlers and auction sponsors for their generous support."

Daffodils for sale

To some, the daffodil is just a flower. For the Canadian Cancer Society, it is a sign of strength and courage. It symbolizes that we will not give up, we will fight against cancer and we will win. When you buy the flowers, you are supporting Canadians living with cancer and helping the Canadian Cancer Society fund r esearch to fight all cancers for all Canadians in all communities. For any more information regarding the campaign or to get involved as a much needed volunteer, visit the website at www.cancer.ca.

Social Work Week recognized The government has proclaimed March 15-21 as Social Work Week in Saskatchewan. "I want to recognize and thank social workers across the province for their work in supporting some of our most vulnerable citizens," Social Services Minister Donna Harpauer said. "Across the province, social workers contribute to making Saskatchewan the best place to live, work and raise a family through their work in public and private practice, in our health and education systems, through community-based organizations or filling policy, planning and administration roles." Social Work Week was established by the Canadian Association of Social Workers in March 1990 to recognize the contribution of social workers across the country. Each year, a different theme is selected to serve as a focus for activities within the profession and promotion of the role of social work with the public. This year's theme is, "Social Work: Profession of Choice." Our local Sun Country Health Region covers the southeast corner of the province from Coronach to the Manitoba border and from just north of Kipling-Glenavon area down to the US border. SCHR has social workers that work in both the Weyburn and Estevan hospitals, in Mental Health and in Primary Care. The Mental Health division provides services to a wide range of ages including children, teens, adults and families of children with autism. The SCHR social workers provide individual, family and group counselling in clinics throughout the region. Marlene Salmers of the SCHR is a social worker based out of Estevan and says "Social Workers are often depicted in the movies and on TV as apprehending children or helping with financial problems. Those are certainly valuable parts of our profession but it is that and so much more." Social Workers in the Sun Country Health Region can be found in hospitals, intake departments, mental health clinics, health promotions and the list goes on. It is privileged work. Clients allow us to walk with them and work with them and support them during their darkest days. The Saskatchewan Association of Social Workers was established in October 1962, as the regulatory and professional organization for social workers in Saskatchewan, and grew from an active membership of 83 to more than 1,500 members. For more information on Social Work Week in Saskatchewan, please visit the Saskatchewan Association of Social Workers' website at www.sasw.ca.

Police ask for assistance in solving recent thefts On March 15, the Weyburn Police Service received a report from New Age Motor Sports that sometime during the night two high-end RZRs were stolen from the fenced compound. Photos can be seen on the New Age Motorsports Facebook page. Also on March 15, the Weyburn PS received a report of a theft of personal property from a vehicle parked in the downtown core area. Stolen was a black backpack containing clothing, medication and a small amount of cash. Anyone having information on this or any other crime is asked to contact the Weyburn PS or Crime Stoppers. On March 14, the Weyburn Police Service, while on patrol at a local pub, received information that a 21 year-old male was attempting to steal a promotional item. The matter was resolved to the satisfaction of the pub. Also on March 14, the Weyburn PS received a complaint from a local cab company that a fare would not pay. The 29 year-old male was located and payment was mediated. Nothing further was required to police. On March 13, the Weyburn PS received a report of a male person being unlawfully in a dwelling house. The investigation revealed that the suspect was an employee of the landlord and had entered the residence to perform some maintenance work. The renter claimed that improper notice had been given by the landlord. The matter was mediated and concluded.

The Weyburn Police Service received a report of the theft of a vehicle from Barber Motors lot. On March 11, at about 7 p.m., the vehicle was observed leaving the lot and was last seen travelling north on Hwy #35. The vehicle is a 2007 beige/grey GMC Sierra 4-door pickup and can be seen on Facebook on salesman Charlie Travis' page. Any information regarding this theft can be reported to the RCMP/ Weyburn PS or Crime Stoppers. On March 11, the Weyburn PS became involved in an investigation into a reported breach of the City Dog Bylaw for too many dogs being kept within city limits. As a result of the investigation, a 49 year-old male has been charged with keeping too many animals. The Weyburn Bylaw limits normal possession of animals to three dogs or three cats, or a combination of three dogs/ cats. An animal having a litter of puppies/kittens may be in addition to this until the litter reaches six months of age. Also on March 11, the Weyburn PS received a complaint forwarded from the RCMP regarding a domestic assault at a local business. Upon attending, it was learned that a 23 year-old female had committed a minor assault on her 30 year-old male partner. The matter was mediated without

further police involvement. Further on March 11, the Weyburn Police Service conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle in regards to a violation of a traffic law. The 33 year-old female driver was found to be driving under the influence of alcohol. A roadside breath test was administered resulting in a three days license suspension for the driver. At about 3:00 a.m. on March 10, the Weyburn PS received a call regarding an altercation between a male and a female. Before police arrived on scene, the individuals were gone. The investigation led the police to a residence in the area where a 28 year-old male and a 24 year-old female were subsequently arrested and held in custody. As a result of the investigation, both individuals have been charged with assault with a weapon. They have both since been released from custody on conditions and will each be making a court appearance. The Weyburn Police Service are investigating a mischief file. A home/vehicle in the area of the Comprehensive School was egged between 9:30 p.m. on March 8 and 7:00 a.m. on March 9. Anyone having information on this is asked to contact the Weyburn PS or Crime Stoppers.

The many faces of FACETIME

Mid-lent report: “What is the state of my soul?”

By Helen Waller Over the last few years, I have seen the benefits of technology. One of my new favorite things is FaceTime. For those of you who are not familiar with it, it's basically a video phone call. Not only do you get to talk to the other person but you get a live feed video. Not only can you hear them, you can see them as well. I have seen how beneficial this can be, especially to the "grandparents". My three-year-old niece has been FaceTiming with Grandma ever since she got ahold of her Mom's phone. For over a year now, she can both hear and see Grandma at the press of a button. My sister lives far enough away that making regular trips back home have become a nuisance. The heartbreaking thing is that when she does come down, her kids are not familiar enough with their grandparents to feel comfortable spending time with them. Most of the time, over a few short days was spent "warming up" to them. FaceTime has changed that. Now, at the touch of a button, Grandma can call any one of her grandkids and be with them, right where they are. Grandma can now see their favorite toys, watch them blow out the candles on their birthday cake or read them a good night story. I have seen how technology can bring a family closer, especially when you are miles apart. In the last week, I have accidentally stumbled upon a few other ways to utilize FaceTime, the first being the hockey rink. It's where I spend most of my time these days, taking the boys to games and practices. A lot of time at the rink means less time available with friends and family. Enter FaceTime. Now I get the best of both worlds. My older sister called me when I was watching my son play his final game and when I answered, I quickly told her I couldn't talk because I was at the rink watching hockey and that I would call her back later. Her suggestion was even better. She asked to use FaceTime so she could watch her nephew while he was on the ice. It was a win-win situation. I got to chat with my sister and she got to be part of a game she just may never actually physically get to see. So… I got it. FaceTime is great for connecting with family members far away. That's when it happened. I saw a new way, a new face, to this FaceTime. Have you ever got THE phone call? You know the one. When someone is asking you to look for something and they are trying to explain where to find it, what it looks like and where it could be? Well, I made that phone call to my daughter the other day. From my point of view, knowing exactly what it was I was looking for and where it could be found, this should have been pretty simple. Well, it wasn't. Apparently we had different versions of left and right, green and blue, etc. I was getting fairly frustrated when the idea popped in my head. I told her to FaceTime me so I could walk her through, step-by-step, where to find what I was looking for. Within 30 seconds, the answer was clear. She found exactly what I wanted her to. FaceTime had made it much easier for us to communicate. So, it seems that technology is not simply for the people out there who never had access to it but for regular users to find new and different ways for it to benefit our lives as well. There are many faces….

Comments on the weather may strike us as being peculiar to Saskatchewan residents, because it is the sure bet of most conversation starters. But who can deny that they have not enjoyed this extended warm spell that we have been blessed with over the past couple weeks, with most of our snow having melted and the bare ground showing and the sidewalks and streets completely dried up? Actually the disappearance of the snow has revealed all the garbage and debris that was previously covered up; and before long, we realize that we will have to pull out our rakes and other tools to start doing some spring cleaning. Since the word "Lent" comes from an old English word referring to the lengthening of the days we associate with spring, this reference to spring and its activities provide an excellent reflection for what needs to go on spiritually in our hearts and souls in the preparation for the Easter mystery of Christ's resurrection. Before the new life of Christ can take root within us, we need to undergo a spiritual and interior cleansing and renewal where the debris of sins and selfishness that we all struggle within our lives is addressed and purified by action of God's grace and mercy. As Holy Week approaches with our Good Friday celebrations, what better time to take stock of our souls and hearts, so that Lord's grace and mercy can more effectively work within us, as we ask God to remove all those attitudes and habits we have fallen subject to from us. We pray that God will strengthen those virtues and qualities within us that help to build the Christ-like way of life within us, so that we might become more and more like Him. In the Catholic liturgy, there is a prayer which is prayed by the priest as he adds the water to the wine in the chalice: "By the mystery of this water and wine, may we come to share in the divinity of Christ, who humbled Himself to share in our humanity." This divinization has been a strong aspect of the Eastern Christians in the Orthodox tradition more so than in our Recognizing those who make a difference to us all!

So that as St. Paul says in his letter to the LAST WEEK’S ON-LINE POLL RESULTS Galatians: "I have been crucified with Christ, and I live Would you be in favour of a tax increase for additional snow removal now not with my own life but if all areas were cleaned in the same with the life of Christ who manner as the downtown core? lives in me. The life I now live in this body I live in faith: Yes 25% faith in the Son of God who loved me and who sacrificed No 75% Himself for my sake." (2:19b20). May we all seek to put on Christ through and through, so that in all things we might reflect Christ more and more in our lives.

Keeping sharp

By Linda Wegner When it comes to hobbies, crossword puzzles have got to be my first choice. Even after a day filled with writing articles or editing the work of other writers, I head to my recliner chair, put up my feet and begin wrestling with words (or, more accurately with some of the more bizarre definitions attributed to those words). The one thing, however, that blunts my pleasure is dull pencils. I may be on top of the game but when a pencil is unsharpened it reduces my ability to read what I've written. Because the quality of the lead's imprint is muted and my age-related vision is less than perfect, I've had to go back over my work several times before determining whether the last entry was or was not correct. Since launching my company in 2000 I've learned a lot of lessons: some of them I discerned quickly while it took near disasters before I caught on to some others. Like those faded crossword answers, I wasted far too much time and effort simply because my body was tired out and my creativity and enthusiasm suffered the results of that exhaustion. Hubby and I have just returned from a week's visit with family, a long-overdue vacation that served as a time of total relaxation as well as a sharp reminder of the value of refreshing. In the few days since we've been back I've set about my work with new strength and excitement. In life or in business, it's vital to keep sharp. Repeated use of our time and resources without taking time to renew body, mind and spirit, leaves us like a dull instrument. "The steps [and stops] of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his way." Psalm 37:23 Don't risk losing the most important things in life. The Weyburn Police Service are asking your assistance in solving the following crimes. Case #1: On March 11, at about 8:00 p.m., the noted vehicle was stolen from the Barber Motors lot in Weyburn. It was last seen travelling north on Hwy. #35 and may be associated to a small white car also seen in the area at the time. The vehicle is a 2007 GMC 2500HD crew cab SLT diesel with 265,000 km., bronze in color with black leather interior, and has a serial number of 1GTHK23657F521036. Case #2: During the evening of March 15, two 2015 Polaris RZR XP 1000 UTVs were stolen from a fenced compound at New Age Motor Sports. It appears that the units were transported from the scene by a truck/trailer. Anyone having information on these or any crimes is asked to contact either the Weyburn Police Service at 306-8483250 or Saskatchewan Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. You do not have to supply your name or number to Crime Stoppers and you may be eligible for a cash reward.

Nominations sought for Clean Air Leadership Awards The Southeast Saskatchewan Airshed Association (SESAA) has announced the launch of its Clean Air Leadership Awards program. "Improving air quality and keeping clean air clean is fundamental to the quality of life in our communities" said SESAA Executive Director Terry Gibson. "The Clean Air Leadership Awards will provide recognition for initiatives undertaken in the region that are doing just that." The Southeast Saskatchewan Airshed Association (SESAA) was established in 2005 to identify local air quality issues and to develop innovative solutions for managing these issues. Gibson indicated, "The Association is now well established in the region and includes representation from industry, government, local governments and other stakeholders. We believe it is important to recognize individuals, organizations and companies who are demonstrating leadership by their actions, in ensuring good air quality. By highlighting these initiatives we hope we can encourage even more initiatives to be undertaken." The Awards will be presented at a breakfast on June 3, 2015, Clean Air Day, in Weyburn. Tickets to the event are $15 or $100 per table of 8. "The Saskatchewan Oil and Gas Show is happening at the same time so we hope to have great attendance. Oil and gas companies form a large proportion of members in the SESAA so it makes sense to have our first ever event at this time and in this location" said Gibson.

Nominations are now being accepted for the awards. Initiatives in the region that advance the understanding and/ or awareness of air quality, promote improvements in air quality through policy, regulation or practice, or improve air quality monitoring in the region are all eligible to be nominated. Nomination forms and event ticket information can be found on the SESAA website at: www.sesaa.ca click on nomination form. Nominations close April 15, 2015

10 Weyburn This Week, Friday, March 20, 2015

CAA's annual Worst Roads Campaign is back! Spring is in the air. With melting snow and ice, the conditions of our well travelled roads and highways will be much more evident. The return of spring also means it's time for CAA Saskatchewan's Worst Roads Campaign. Motorists are invited to identify and vote for the worst roads they have travelled on in our province. And just what exactly defines a worst road? Typically these are roads that have potholes, cracks, are in general disrepair, have no or poor signage, roads with little or no shoulder space or roads that are too narrow for motorists and cyclists to share safely. The 2015 CAA Saskatchewan Worst Roads campaign starts March 25th and ends April 17. Motorists can nominate and vote for their worst roads at www.caask.ca/worstroads. A new feature of this year's campaign is that motorists can specify the section of the road they wish to nominate. The top 10 roads will be announced on April 20 and the list will be shared with the appropriate government group. The CAA Worst Roads campaign will be monitored with updates on which roads in our province are getting the top votes. The information will be made available via news releases, social media including Facebook and Twitter, as well as on www.caask.ca. CAA Saskatchewan acknowledges the improvements made to Saskatchewan roadways for the safety of all motorists and travellers. But there is always more work to be done. That's where Saskatchewan motorists can help by identifying the roads in need of repair; the roads they rely

on every day for business and recreation travel. A record breaking total of 4,651 votes were received from motorists in the CAA Saskatchewan 2014 Worst Roads Campaign scheduled from April 1 to April 25, 2014. The #1 Worst Road was Saskatchewan 24 near Leoville. In 2013, the CAA Worst Roads Campaign attracted 2800 votes and 2900 votes were tabulated in 2012. A complete list of the top 10

worst roads for 2014, 2013, and 2012 is available at http:// caask.ca/about-caa/caa-social-responsibility/worst-roads. Working towards better roads and advocating for driver safety is a priority for CAA Saskatchewan. The CAA Worst Roads Campaign helps put a spotlight on troublesome and even dangerous road conditions in the province and is one tool to help address those roads in most need of attention.

Anglers reminded to remove shelters Ice fishing season closes on March 31 in southern Saskatchewan and on April 15 in the north. This means that all fishing shelters south of Highway 16 should have been removed by March 15 and shelters in areas north of Highway 16 must be removed by March 31. Each spring, a number of ice fishing shelters are abandoned on the ice of Saskatchewan lakes. This creates identification and cleanup challenges for the province and can pose environmental concerns. Any litter, including fish entrails and offal, must also be removed when ice shelters are taken off the ice. "These shelters need to be removed because they can pose a danger to boaters, water-skiers and others enjoying our lakes if they remain floating in the water," Ministry of Environment Compliance and Field Services Executive Director

Kevin Callele said. "The pieces wash up on shore and can cause environmental hazards. If shelters are not removed, owners could be prosecuted, and the structure and contents may be confiscated and removed by the ministry." In 2014, a Saskatoon man was fined $2,800 for leaving an unmarked ice fishing shelter on the ice-covered waters of Blackstrap Lake, and for littering. Ice fishing shelters must have the owner's complete name, address and phone number on the outside in legible letters that are at least 2.5 cm high. Anyone travelling on the ice should take extreme caution. Slush indicates that ice is eroding from above and below at an advanced rate and changing temperatures can cause thermal cracks and pressure ridges, which are indicators of unsafe conditions.

Beavers seeking help/support The Board of Directors for the Weyburn Beavers Baseball Club is holding a public meeting on March 24 at 7:00 p.m. The meeting will be held at the Weyburn Credit Union Community room. Discussions will be held that evening to determine the teams' viability for the 2015 and future WMBL seasons. "The 2014 WMBL season made one thing clear - that significant volunteer and financial challenges are the reality for the small market teams like Weyburn. We must expand our support structure in order to ease the workload on our current group of dedicated volunteers and increase team operating capital," said Garnet Hansen, president of the Weyburn Beavers. "If we are going to successfully field a team for the 2015 season and in future years, we will need commitment in strength from the community." The Weyburn Beavers baseball club will be actively seeking volunteer help in all facets of operating the team. The volunteer roles do not necessarily require significant time commitments and, in some areas, they can be shared with other volunteers. A list of games and their activities will be on hand for volunteers to sign up for. The WBBC encourages every person to bring their talents and ideas to the table which will in turn allow for some much needed changes to bring about a successful 2015 season.
