The black tie gala event titled “An Evening in New Orleans”, held on April 5 at the
S.N. Boreen Community Centre was a successful event, raising $90,806 for the St.
Anthony’s Hospital Building
Fund.
“We accomplished all of our
goals,” said Tyler Metz, gala
chairperson. “We wanted our
guests to have an elegant,
tastefully organized event,
raise awareness of the need for
a new hospital, and raise
money. It was a really good
night, the guests were treated
like gold, and we raised more
than 90 thousand dollars. We
spread awareness of our goal to
build a new hospital beyond
the local area, so I believe we
met all our goals.”
There were just under 300
guests in attendance at the
gala. Entertainment was provided by a number of various
guest speakers. Well-know
radio broadcaster John Gormley spoke on the value and benefits of community support.
Bob Bjornerud, Melville Saltcoats MLA, said, “Keep working, raise dollars, plug them
into this project, because we
are all going to see that new
building here.”
Healthcare champion Don
Hood extended a special thank-

you to Mosaic. “Mosaic came
out early in the fundraising
with a million-dollar matching
gift donation,” Hood said.
“Whenever [the St. Anthony’s
Building Fund Committee] is
getting a donation, the question that comes every time is:
‘Will Mosaic match that?’ So
the million dollars early on has
been extremely important in
raising donations.”
Dr. George Garbe, a Regina
cardiologist, spoke on the value
of community support as well.
Dr. Garbe was the first recipient of the Mosaic student scholarship, presented to him 51
years ago.
Guests attending the event
were a varied cross-section of
business and individuals who
have vested interests in the
quality of our local healthcare.
Guests were local community
business people; municipal,
rural municipal, and provincial
government officials; to guest
from as far away as South
Africa, Brazil, and Australia, as
well as from Ontario, Manitoba,
Alberta,
and
Saskatchewan.
There were also two auctions
held to raise funds, one silent
auction and one live auction.
Some of many interesting
items that were donated for the
auction included a necklace
that was custom made by Hillberg and Burke, the same company that designed the
jewellery for the Queen when
she visited Saskatchewan, and
a Roughrider jersey signed by
Geroy Simon.
“It’s simple,” Metz said about
the success of the event in
meeting the goals to provide a
memorable event to raise funds
for the new hospital. “Take care
of the people who are taking
care of our district.”

Wellness Clinics promotes awareness
by Shelley Gillespie
Although the Sunrise
Health Region has held
Wellness Clinics in various communities in the
area for a long time now,
in January 2014 a pamphlet was designed to
distribute among medical clinics and hospitals
to promote awareness of
the program.
The pamphlets were
designed and distributed under the guidance
of Carol Burman, who is
one of two nurses that
provide service to the
clinic held in Esterhazy
monthly at the Golden
Jets. Other clinics in our
area include one held
every second month at
the Hut in Dubuc; one
held monthly at the
Manor in Spy Hill, one
held every second
month in Stockholm at
the Manor, and one held
twice monthly at the
Langenburg
Health
Centre. All of the clinics
except Esterhazy employ one nurse.
Eligibility to attend
the clinic is based on
need, assessed by the
nurse. Services include
a client health history
review; basic health assessment
including
monitoring blood pressure, pulse, weight and
blood sugar levels when
indicated; foot care to
maintain good foot
health and initiate referrals to chiropodist if
required; health counseling and encouragement to seek medical
attention for early detection and treatment of
problems; and a medication review and teaching if indicated.
Although the clinics
are currently a service
provided for free, donations are graciously appreciated
for
the
purchase of new foot
care equipment.
In addition to the clin-
ics offered in this area,
the Sunrise Health Region also has clinics in
the communities of
Canora, Foam Lake,
Kamsack,
Melville,
Preeceville,
Ituna,
Norquay, and Yorkton.
The Wellness Clinics
are a service that is provided by Esterhazy and
Langenburg Home Care
to residents in the Sunrise Health Region.
Wellness clinics are not
held in the months of
July, August, and December. An appointment
is required to attend all
clinics. To make an appointment for Esterhazy, Dubuc, Spy Hill,
and Stockholm, please
call 306-734-6700. To
make an appointment
for the clinic held in
Langenburg, call 306743-5005.

Garry Breitkreuz not seeking 8th term
Garry
Breitkreuz,
Member of Parliament
for
Yorkton-Melville,
Saskatchewan, has officially announced that he
will not be seeking reelection in 2015.
“For the past 20 years,
I have had the sincere honour and privilege of representing
the
constituents of YorktonMelville, in east central
Saskatchewan,” said Breitkreuz. “The experience
has been both challenging and rewarding. I appreciate
those
who
trusted me with the responsibility of working on
the nation’s business in
Parliament.”
Breitkreuz, 68, was
first elected to the House
of Commons in 1993, for
the federal constituency
of Yorkton-Melville, and
was re-elected in 1997,
2000, 2004, 2006, 2008
and 2011.
“One of the reasons I
got into politics was because I saw government
spending spiralling out of
control – taxes and interest on the debt were becoming a huge burden
that would ultimately be
downloaded onto our children and grandchildren,”
Breitkreuz noted “I could
not sit back and do nothing.”
Breitkreuz has been active on many House of
Commons’ standing committees over the years including Procedure and
House Affairs, Agriculture and Justice. From
2006 to 2010, he chaired
the Standing Committee
on Public Safety and National Security. Breitkreuz also introduced
numerous private members’ bills on issues including property rights,
parental rights and responsibilities, and pro-life
matters. His experience
overseas before becoming
an M.P. also helped him
to be effective on many
parliamentary delegations to other countries.
For a dozen years, Breitkreuz held an annual
agriculture forum in the
constituency to help keep
farm producers informed
on issues important to
them.
Breitkreuz gained national and international
recognition for his extensive work on the federal
firearms file. He took up
the cause of gun owners’
rights back in 1995 when
the Liberal government
of the day introduced draconian gun control legislation under the guise of
Bill C-68. “I hit the
ground running. Canadian firearms owners
were under siege by unfair laws created to make
gun ownership too difficult to maintain,” recalled
Breitkreuz.
Years of research and
over
500
Access-toInformation requests resulted
in
what
is
commonly referred to as
“The Billion Dollar Boondoggle” – the costs incurred to implement the
long-gun registry – one of
the onerous measures in
Bill C-68. In 2012, with a
majority Conservative
government, the long gun
registry
was
finally
scrapped – a victory for
Canadian gun owners.
Canada is only one of a
few countries that have
successfully reversed an
anti-gun law. In recognition of his efforts, Breitkreuz has received
numerous awards – most
recently “International
Legislator of the Year” by
Safari Club International.
Breitkreuz also saw the
need to preserve and promote in Parliament the
heritage activities of
Canadians who enjoy the
great outdoors. He created the Parliamentary
Outdoors Caucus in June
of 2006. It has grown into
one of the biggest allparty caucuses on Parliament Hill. “I’ve hunted
and fished with Conservatives, Liberals, NDPers, and Greens who
love to get into the outdoors,” noted Breitkreuz.

and maintain our rights

“I am proud of my involvement in these and

issues as a member of
Parliament and as a
member of the Conservative team,” added Breitkreuz. “However, now it
is time for me to begin
preparations to leave
public office, and I look

Breitkreuz and his staff

Breitkreuz.

reports
from the
Saskatchewan
Legislature
Rural Sask. new privatization
battleground
That we would be heading into another battle in
Saskatchewan over public
vs. private ownership is
not surprising.
This long-standing feud
between left and right and
everyone else that gets
caught in the middle has
been off and on for
decades now. It was only a
matter of time before
something would revive
this issue.
That it would be played
out
in
rural
Saskatchewan also isn’t
all that surprising, either.
Maybe the NDP no longer
hold a prominent place in
the rural Saskatchewan
landscape, but some of
their long-held principles
like the co-ops and the
need for public utilities
distributing necessities
like telephone, power, natural gas and insurance
are still an everyday part
of rural life.
However, these notions
also rub up against the independent,
free-enterprise,
market-driven
realities of today’s agriculture, oil and potash mining that is also part of the
rural fabric. It would seem
a natural place for conflict.
But what might be a little surprising is the battleground in which the
next great privatization
fight in Saskatchewan
may now be fought – over
the privatization of rural
government-run liquor
stores.
Undoubtedly at the behest of the Saskatchewan
Party government, the
Saskatchewan Liquor and
Gaming Authority (SLGA)
announce earlier this
month the closing liquor
stores in Langenburg,
Ituna, Ponteix and Kerrobert.
Interestingly, the government said it will be
searching for potential
franchises among private
businesses in these communities to pick up the
slack. Applications for the
franchises will be accepted until May 8, but it
doesn’t appear to be quite
the same arrangement as
the other 190 liquor franchises now operating
throughout
rural
Saskatchewan as a side
business in local hardware and grocery stores.
SLGA Minister Donna
Harpauer instead said the
stories will receive a 15.3per-cent discount on the
SLGA rates, which is similar to the deal offered to
the first four successful
franchises running these
the first private wine and
liquor stores in the cities.
Of course, Harpauer
cited low sales volume
and old buildings as the
reason for the changes –
contributing factors that
can’t be ignored.
That said, this doesn’t
quite seem like a simple
corporate decision by the
SLGA, either. Or so thinks
the Saskatchewan Government and General Employees (SGEU) who
represent the 12 employees that will be losing jobs
in these communities. The
union strongly believes
this is part of the government’s narrative on public
vs. private ownership.
Making Harpauer’s announcement even more
intriguing is that it came
just days before the
Saskatchewan
Transportation Company announced an annual loss of
$13.3 million for 2013 –
its 37th consecutive unprofitable year.
If ever there was a
Crown entity that the
Sask. Party government
should be eager to privatize, one might think it
would be the money-losing provincial bus company.
But
notwithstanding another
lost and a dip in ridership,
there really isn’t any interest in selling . . . largely
because
rural
Saskatchewan recognizes
there are no private buyers for this public service
they would otherwise lose.
Liquor sales, however,
are different. There are vi-
able private options, making them a better front for
the Sask. Party government in this fight.
Sure, there are many in
these communities who
will neither like the loss of
what is a good business
draw in the community or
to see their neighbours
lose good paying jobs.
But if these franchises
have a little more room to
operate as private vendors and can turn once
public stores into successful private ventures that
help the local economy
and enhance each community with a private cornerstone
business,
this
becomes a bit of a success
story.
And any such success
story involving turning
publicly owned stores into
private entities certainly
helps Wall’s argument
when it comes to converting private liquor stores
in the cities.
Rural Saskatchewan is
as good a battleground for
this fight.
WEEK OF APRIL 13 TO 19, 2014
The luckiest signs this week: Aquarius, Pisces, and Aries..
ARIES
You’re not usually the type of person to hesitate before coming to a decision, but this time
you should weigh the pros and cons before deciding definitely.
TAURUS
At work, you are in charge of all the emergencies and maybe the dissatisfied clients as well.
Keep a smile on your face, as your attitude can help to defuse some tense situations.
GEMINI
You achieve a great exploit, one way or another. You are warmly applauded and are the
object of lots of admiration. You could even save someone from a catastrophe.
CANCER
Your young children seem to be a lot more unruly than usual. You’re going to have to
take the time to establish and explain some new rules at home.
LEO
You have lots to say for yourself and are able to express out loud what others are only
thinking. You’ll also have to get used to a new communication device as well.
VIRGO
Take the time to examine your various bills, as it’s quite possible that a mistake has been
made. You may be able to recuperate a considerable amount of money.
LIBRA
Patience is a virtue for you over the next few days. Your money issues will be settled, all
in good time. You can help solutions arise by letting bygones be bygones.
SCORPIO
An accumulated tiredness hits you, requiring you to rest. Only real peace of mind allows
you to find the right inspiration to attain your professional goals.
SAGITTARIUS
You find yourself in charge of a fairly large group, either at work or at play. These activities take a lot of your energy, so be sure to get good quality rest time.
CAPRICORN
You may be surprised to find yourself sitting in the boss’s chair after he or she has to leave
suddenly. Have faith in yourself and you’ll successfully demonstrate your talents as a
leader.
AQUARIUS
A business trip is looming on the horizon, and you may worry unduly about your ability
to communicate in a foreign language. You’re sure to surpass expectations.
PISCES
You might think about a career change or going back to school. Your patience and effort
help you to extract yourself from a tricky financial situation.

Report from Ottawa
a message from Garry Breitkreuz, MP
Yorkton-Melville constituency
Government of Canada delivers
greater employment opportunities for
Veterans and Members of the Canadian
Armed Forces
No Canadians have earned more admiration and respect from their fellow
citizens than our Veterans and Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) personnel.
They make me very proud to be Canadian.
The Government of Canada has already shown, through many measures,
how much we value our CAF personnel. It pleases me to share that we are
making some new reforms that again demonstrate clearly that even when
they no longer wear our nation’s uniform, their country is still here for them.
The Veterans Hiring Act was introduced in Parliament a few weeks ago.
Through this Act, which is expected to come into force in 2014-2015, members
of the Canadian Armed Forces with three years of service time who have
been granted honourable release will have greater access to rewarding new
employment opportunities in the federal public service. This is an important
step forward that enables those men and women who want to continue to
serve Canada to do so once their time in uniform in complete.
Also, through the Veterans Hiring Act, members of the Canadian Armed
Forces who are medically released due to a career-ending injury or illness
suffered in the line of duty, will now go to the front of the line for job openings they are qualified to fill in the federal public service. This priority entitlement will be theirs for a full five years, extended from the current two
years. This gives Veterans time to upgrade their education and skills if
needed.
For both options, Veterans and releasing CAF personnel must still apply
and qualify for positions.
For some time now, the federal government has been working alongside
corporate Canada to ensure Veterans are connected with opportunities in
the private sector. As Defence Minister Rob Nicholson recently noted: “Our
men and women in uniform acquire a number of skills during their service
to Canada that make them ideal employees. Creating job opportunities
within the federal public service is an important step in helping them transition to civilian life.”
Many Canadian companies already deeply value Canada’s Veterans for
their leadership, professionalism and teamwork, as well as their organizational and management skills. These abilities, learned and practiced so thoroughly while enlisted, are all transferable to a career in the public service –
and the Government of Canada wants to be sure our Veterans have the opportunity to make a smooth transition from military to civilian life.
The Government of Canada hopes the opposition parties and government
unions will join us in making this goal a reality.
You can find more detailed information at: www.veterans.gc.ca/eng/services/ps-hiring.
Some day you’ll look back and laugh
Have you ever heard that expression “Some day you’ll look back on this and laugh”? It is supposed to
bring comfort to you when in the middle of some kind of crisis that many years later you might see the
humor in the situation. What I was never told was that sometimes, when we look back on an incident in
our lives, it is the others that get the best laugh from the telling of the story.
I was 16, my older brother was 18. The two younger boys were 14 and nine. My parents had worked hard
for many years to bring the family status up from low income to middle class, and were well on their way.
As a celebration event, they planned a trip to Disneyland for the whole family. Awesome, right?
Not so for us two oldest children. We balked, stubbornly and steadfastly. There was no way we were
going to go anywhere and hang out with just our parents and little brothers. We were too cool for that. Way
too cool.
I even offered my mother what I thought was an enticing compromise: just bring my best friend so I have
someone decent to hang out with, and I will come. I was shocked when they said no.
Well, the days went by, ever drawing closer to the exact moment of the exact hour on the exact date that
my mom had to finalize the plans, cancel for anyone not going, and pay her deposit for those that were
happy to have a vacation. My brother and I managed to hold out, convincing our parents that they would
have to carry us on the plane and make us go, or let us stay home. Of course, at our age, carrying us was
not an option, so stay home we did.
This is the part where you are laughing much harder than I am, and I am regretting my choice still,
wishing I could go back in time and be a little smarter. No such dice. Lesson certainly learned. One of my
biggest regrets still.
Now, for the above story, the fact that I may have the ages slightly off, or the destination between Disneyland and Disneyworld incorrect, does not lessen the humor of the event.
Another time, I was maybe eight, and we were visiting at my cousins’s farm. My dad came in from outside and asked everyone, “Does anyone want to come for a ride to Melville to drop [cousin Rosie] off at the
train?”
I was ecstatic! I flew into the room where I had left my first, brand-new purse, and grabbed it, and
headed off back to the kitchen door, only to see my dad’s truck rambling down the road in the direction of
Melville. One big flaw to my plan: I had failed to answer him. In my excitement, I had uttered not one word
of agreement. I cried until he returned.
Sad, but funny even to me many years later.
This final story took us many years before we could laugh at the parts that were humorous, but now it
is almost legend. Every few years the story is brought out and shaken free of dust, and told again, both to
fresh ears and to those that have heard it many times. Like many other stories, facts may have become irrelevant, but do not lessen the impact of the tale.
It had been a long, cold, snowy winter, and one of my younger brothers, who was five at the time, had
designed a plan to make winter go away. He had stolen seven packs of matches from my parents box of
matchbooks, and was going to melt the snow. He was tired of it.
Seven packs should do. Twenty matches in each book left him with a grand total of 140, and that was
lots, he thought. He lit a match, held it to the snow, and watched a small portion of it melt away before the
match went out. Ah! It was working!
One-hundred-and-thirty-eight very determined tries after that, and just about as many minutes later,
he was left looking at one match left, and way too much snow to melt with the one remaining firestick. So
he devised a new plan: Take the match to a nearby farmer’s field, where there was a huge tank, originally
hauled by semi, and usually filled with gasoline to refill gas station tanks with gas. He had always wondered what that tank would look like inside, and now was his chance.
He made his way over to the farm yard where the tank had rested for some years, and he found the entrance to the tank – much like the opening on the gas tank on most road vehicles.
He took off the lid, and placed it carefully to the side. He lit the match and tossed it into the tank, and
quickly bent to place one eye on the opening so he could see inside for the first time.
BOOM!!! The fumes that had been held tightly within that tank exploded when the match came into
play, and fortunately before my brother’s eye was firmly on the opening.
I believe he spent three months in the hospital while his face was regrowing skin, and eyebrows, and
eyelashes. Fortunately, at least in my memories, he seemed fine other than the change to his looks.
And with the guidance of my parents, who bought another box of matches and let him light 100 books
of 20 matches one after the other, until his wrist was sore and the thrill was gone; until he no longer had
a desire to play with fire, and until he understood that if he really ever had the urge again he was to come
to them.
We don’t so much laugh, as still ponder how things hadn’t been worse.

SPORTS TALK - by Bruce Penton
Healthy McGowan an early win for Jays
Simply by cracking
Toronto Blue Jays’ opening day roster this year,
pitcher Dustin McGowan
is already in the running
for the American League
comeback-player-of-theyear award.
McGowan, a 32-year-old
right handed pitcher with
immense talent and for
whom the Jays always
had the highest of hopes,
has been the poster boy
for an injured ballplayer
for much of the last five or
six years.
The Blue Jays have
stuck with McGowan
through
thick
(torn
labrum) and thin (four
shoulder surgeries) but
when he took the mound
April 4 in the Jays 2014
home opener against the
Yankees, it was his first
start since September of
2011. In fact, he has made
only four starts for the
Blue Jays over the past
five years – none since
2011. Since his first surgery in 2008, he has
pitched in only 30 games,
25 of them in relief.
Most teams would have
long given up on such an
injury-prone player, but
the Blue Jays’ brass knew
McGowan could be an important piece of their
pitching rotation if only
he could get healthy.
Now, in 2014, it appears
their wait is paying off.
McGowan had an excellent spring training camp,
pitching in four games
and allowing opposing hitters to bat .120 against
him. When J.A. Happ
went on the disabled list,
the Jays tabbed McGowan
to be the team’s fifth
starter.
“There’s no quit in my
blood,” McGowan told
MLB.com. “There were
times I thought it may not
happen any more but it
wouldn’t be from lack of
trying and that’s why I
kept pushing hard.”
Manager John Gibbons
is hoping McGowan can
stay healthy all season
and help bring the Jays
back to respectability. “He
was one of the top up-andcoming pitchers here in
this organization a few
years ago,” Gibbons told
The Canadian Press. “It’s
pretty amazing in my
mind that he’s come back
this far.”
McGowan’s first start
was the Jays’ home
opener and he didn’t fare
too well, giving up four
runs in less than three innings. But the only thing
injured was his pride,
which for Dustin McGowan is at least a small
victory.
• Greg Cote of the
Miami Herald: “One of LeBron James’s 3,847 sponsors just came out with
‘Sprite 6 Mix by LeBron
James.’ It’s the basic
Sprite lemon-lime flavour
but they added either a
hint of cherry-orange or a
splash of LeBron’s gameworn perspiration – I
can’t remember which.”
• Norman Chad of the
Washington Post, on Twitter: “In unprecedented
move, Nationals announce
they’ll put Stephen Strasburg on a lifetime pitch
count. He has 17,497
pitches left.”
• Chad again: “In the
past, the Yankees’ idea of
fiscal restraint was to
take lobster ravioli off the
training table.”
• Randy Turner of the
Winnipeg Free Press, on
Twitter: “It’s official:
Devin Setoguchi has now
been scratched more
times than that mystery
rash I got at Camp Wannacumbac.”
• Bob Molinaro of
hamptonroads.com,
in
Virginia: “According to a
recent Nielsen poll, 50 per
cent of MLB fans are 55
and over, a statistic teams
should keep in mind as
they conjure up the next
round of artery-clogging
ballpark fare. The Diamondbacks sell 18-inch
bacon,
cheese
and
jalapeno corn dogs and
the Rangers offer Asian
spice beef on a 2-foot-long
bun, while the White Sox
serve up a 12-scoop sundae in a batting helmet.
Baseball needs to hang on
to its aging demographic,
not kill it off at the concession stands.”
• Former major leaguer
Ken Singleton: “A man
once told me to walk with
the Lord. I’d rather walk
with the bases loaded.”
• Comedian Gary Bachman: “Ravens running
back Ray Rice got married
one day after being indicted for assaulting his
fiancee. The bride wore
‘something blue’ – a big
bruise.”
• Comedy writer Jim
Barach: “Johnny Manziel
is trying to trademark the
term ‘The House That
Johnny Built.’ Apparently
he is anticipating what
might happen if he isn’t
drafted into the NFL and
has to get a job in construction.”
• RJ Currie of sportsdeke.com: “I just saw a
video of Kate Upton posing in zero gravity for
Sports Illustrated’s 2014
Swimsuit Issue. So much
for Pavel Bure being my
all-time favourite floater.”
• Currie again: “North
Korea’s supreme leader,
Kim Jong-un, reportedly
decreed young men must
sport hairdos like his.
‘Hey!’ said the Calgary
Flames. ‘Don't give Brian
Burke ideas.’ ”
• Mike Bianchi of the
Orlando Sentinel, after
the Buccaneers replaced
QB Mike Glennon with
journeyman Josh McCown: “This is like going
from dating a potential
Sports Illustrated swimsuit model to an aging
stripper with four kids.”
• Comedy writer Alan
Ray, questioning the logic
of baseball’s new instantreplay system: “You really
want to watch the Mets do
that again?”
• Comedy writer Tim
Hunter, with a sure sign
that it’s going to be a long
baseball season: “The umpire’s guide dog just bit
the second baseman.”
• Janice Hough of leftc o a s t s p o r t s b a b e. c o m :
“Tim Hudson, 38, had
such a good first start for
the SF Giants, he may ask
his younger teammates in
the clubhouse if he can
play music from some of
his favourite 8-tracks.”

April 10 was the Red Cross Day of Pink, and these students at PJ Gillen
were absolutely pinked out to raise awareness about bullying, a problem that affects kids, teens and even adults all over the world. The pink
color represents unity in the effort to educate and support people about
bullying and how to deal with it if someone is being bullied.
With snow everywhere, Asessippi Ski Area & Resort ended winter operations for the 2012/13 season on March 31 with the annual Asessippi
Slush Cup. It also marks the completion of season number 14 for this
very young resort. Super Pass Sale is still on until April 18.
Introducing more town employees
by Shelley Gillespie
Editor’s Note: The
Town of Esterhazy has
had staff turnovers in the
past two years, and in
continuation of the article on page two of the
April 7, 2014, issue of The
Miner-Journal
titled
“Meet the staff at the
Town of Esterhazy”, the
last two new employees
will be presented in this
article.
Janice Lewko is the
new Recreation and Activity Coordinator, and
has been employed at the
town office since March
13, 2013. She heard
about the position at the
town office online at
SaskJobs.ca, and when
she applied, she was
hired as the part-time
Activity Coordinator for
20 hours per week. She
moved into a full-time
position on Jan. 6, 2014,
and became the Recreation and Activity Coordinator.
Lewko’s job requires
her to plan events that
come up through the
Town of Esterhazy offices, such as the movie
night, and fundraising
events for clubs and organizations such as the
“Puck
and
Funny”,
where three comedians
performed to raise funds
for Esterhazy Minor
Hockey. One such event
that is coming up is the
Abracadazzle
Magic
Show, put on by John Kaplan, which will be a
fundraiser for Skate Esterhazy held at the S.N.
Boreen Community Centre.
Other duties include
scheduling of the ice time
at the arena, overseeing
soccer, scheduling of the

helps out with general office duties when required.
Lewko is originally

back to the area in 2006.
Prior to her move back
here she lived in Regina,
and attained her Office
Education Certificate,
with four specialties. She

has her first year of her
Business
Certificate
course, and will continue
on for the second year, to
finish the course and receive her certificate.
After moving back in
2006, Lewko worked for
Mosaic for six months in
the Human Resources office, and for six months
in Senior Management.
“I absolutely love this
job,” Lewko said. “It is
the best job I ever had. I
am out in the commu-
nity, meeting people,
planning family oriented
events, bringing families
together. It is a very rewarding job.”
Lewko has four sons,
Alex, 14; Zack and
Braden, 11; and Joe, 6.
All of her sons attend
school in Esterhazy.
Jacinta Hale is currently the Administrative Coordinator, and
was hired on Dec. 9,

all accounts payable, and
payroll, just to name the
three major ones. She
also applied for a position with the Town of Esterhazy through an ad on
SaskJobs.ca, but was not
hired for the position she
applied for. Her first po-
sition at the town office
was that of Accounting
Clerk. She also assists
with various duties
around the office as required.

completed the courses
needed for a Legal Assistant
diploma.

2013 as a legal assistant
in Saskatoon, before
moving to Esterhazy.
“I like that it’s different every day,” Hale said.
“We see different people
every day, for different
reasons. It keeps the job
interesting.”
Hale’s husbands name
is is David, and he works
for Mosaic. They have recently
purchased
a
house. The Hales have a
dog named Merlin.
THANK YOU
The Spy Hill Curling club would like to acknowledge and thank the many businesses in Esterhazy,
Langenburg, Rocanville and Spy Hill for their support
each year of donating cash and prizes for our yearly
bonspiels that we hold. This helps to guarantee the success of these events for our Club. Thank you. Thank
you also to Gough’s Service Centre, C.Duncan
Construction, Double “D” Bar & Grill and Mainline
Insurance, all of Spy Hill, for being our Event
Sponsors each year of our Senior’s Mixed Curling
Bonspiel. Your support means a lot to us. To all out of
town and local curlers who supported our bonspiels,
we appreciate it very much. We hope to see everyone
again next year. The Curling Board wants to thank
everyone who also helped down at the rink with the
flooding and maintaining of the ice and building.
Thanks also to anyone working in the kitchen and bar,
selling 50/50 tickets and to all who
donated food and helped us in any other
way not mentioned. Without community support like this, we would not be
able to keep operating the rink each
year.

Food allergies and your family
by Christine Nechvatal
{Editor’s Note: Christine
Nechvatal is The MinerJournal’s newest freelance
writer. Watch next week’s
paper for introductions}
I love to cook and bake.
It is always rewarding to
share with friends, family
and co-workers some new
treasure I’ve created in the
kitchen. But with so many
people with serious food
allergies and health problems, it can be very scary.
We’ve never had much of
an issue in my family concerning food allergies;
however, on my husband’s
side, there are several people with severe nut allergies.
That
means
absolutely no contact with
nuts or nut extracts. Even
having nuts in the house
has triggered reactions.
And the allergies differ
among those affected
which only adds to the confusion. One can eat
peanuts but no other nuts,
while the other cannot eat
peanuts but can have
other nuts. Others cannot
eat nuts or seeds because
of stomach and digestive
problems. There are milk
allergies as well to consider. For example, milk
will give me headaches so
bad that they make hangover headaches seem like a
walk in the park.
Whenever I prepare food
for anyone, I ALWAYS ask
if they are allergic to anything. Many times I get
strange looks and told that
that is really none of my
concern. I don’t ask to be
nosy. I ask because I don’t
want to feed you anything
that can make you extremely sick or even possibly kill you. My kids will
have their friends over to
play and as you know it
doesn’t take long for someone to get hungry. I want
to feel comfortable, and I
want the child and their
parents to feel comfortable, knowing they are
eating safe foods. I think
that many food allergy illnesses could be prevented
by simply asking others
about them. It is not an
issue about being nosy, it is
common decency and con-
cern for the welfare of
those who are eating the
food you prepare. Don’t be
offended if someone asks
about food allergies and
your family – instead be
grateful that they care
about you enough to ask
before they unintentionally make you sick.
In closing, here is a short
list of the nine most common food allergies in
Canada
(source:
www.canadianliving.com)
- eggs
- peanuts and tree nuts
- wheat
- milk and dairy products
- sesame seeds
- seafood
- soy
- sulphites
P.J. Gillen playground has a little bit of everything- snow, mud, and
every kid’s favorite – water! Parents are reminded to ensure their children are dressed appropriately for the weather and if they could send
splash or ski pants, winter or rubber boots, extra mitts and especially
extra socks with their children, it would be greatly appreciated!

Student paramedics head out into the field
Students enrolled in the
Primary Care Paramedic
certificate program at
Parkland
College
in
Melville have just completed their final week of
classes. The students are
now on practicum assignments until the end of
June.
Before they branched
out into the field to get
work experience, the students posed for a class
photo next to a training
ambulance they used during their program. The
ambulance is a recent addition to the College, having been donated earlier
this year by The Dow
Chemical Company. Dow
Canada
manufactures
basic chemicals and plastics used to make prod-
ucts in many sectors, including personal care,
transportation,
health
care and home construction.
The SIAST Primary
Care Paramedic program
delivered by Parkland
College is a one-year certificate accredited by the
Canadian Medical Association that prepares graduates to work in the field
of pre-hospital emergency
care. Students receive
training in recognizing
and managing medical
and trauma injuries,
physical
assessment,
pharmacology, and professionalism and leadership
in Emergency Medical
Services. Graduates typically find work in ambulance operations, fire
services (in conjunction
with fire training), industrial sites, mining sites,
military departments, or
special care facilities.
The next Paramedic
program will be offered at
Parkland
College
in
Melville starting in September 2014.
Diane, Harvey, Joanne.
They continued to farm in
the Kolin District until
1986, when they bought
their first home and
moved to Esterhazy. Although Dad was retired,
he still played an active
role helping Harvey with
the farm.
Dad enjoyed the kinds
of activities you can do
throughout your life,
dancing, curling, golfing,
bowling, fishing and gardening. His philosophy
was that even when you
are not participating, you
can always be in the audience. He attended many
hockey, volleyball, basketball games and even
dance recitals.
Dad curled until he was
90 years old and golfed
regularly last summer.
The northern fishing trips
with friends and family
were always eventful. Dad
and Mom travelled to various places in the United
States, and even to
Hawaii twice. Dad loved
to dance and would always encourage those who
struggled to “just dance
more and you will get bet-
ter”. He also loved to play
cards.
In 2003, Mom passed
away suddenly leaving
Dad quite lonely. Dad continued curling, golfing,
and playing cards at the
Golden Jets and that is
where he met a special
friend in Rose Maga. Suddenly, he had a very busy
social life.
In 2012, Dad sold his
home and moved to the
Maple Street Manor. He
definitely enjoyed “the
Hotel Life” as he referred
to his new home. He enjoyed setting puzzles, cribbage,
crokinole
and
hallway polkas with many
of the staff. Living at the
Manor still gave him the
freedom to attend events
and cards at the Jets
when Rose would faithfully drop by to pick him
up.
We are so fortunate to
have so many great memories of Dad. He lived 93
years with good health
and happiness and did not
take that for granted. On
March 26, 2014, he said
“Good Night” one last
time.

How do Canadians know if it’s true (or not)?
They turn to the trusted source: Newspapers
in print, online, tablet and phone.
And, research finds that they trust the ads there too
– more than those in any other medium.
