Regional Archives temporarily CLOSED!

Mould spores found in air
By DARRYL HOLYK innedosa Regional Archives chairperson, Lois Neabel, confi rmed Wednesday morning that the Archives offi ce and storage area have been temporarily closed after an air quality test found mould spores three times higher than the level deemed safe. She also assured that while this poses a health risk for people, the actual archival items have not been damaged by this issue. We are temporarily closed and are looking for a place to relocate for the time being, said Lois. I want to assure everyone that all accessions and donations are safe. Th e discovery of mould spores in the air of the Archives rooms, located in the northwest corner of the Minnedosa Regional Library are believed to be a result of water entering the building along the joint of the original library building and the rear addition. Th e issue is confined to the Archives space and the air quality within the library itself has been deemed safe. While the archives space is closed, the library remains open. At press time, no information was available as to the scope of work required to remedy this issue, cost of the work or timeline. For now, the Archives is closed and desperately searching for a safe location to relocate until such time as the issue has been addressed, repaired and it is deemed safe to move back into their original space.

While driving past the compound, keep your eye out for other new calves as we are hoping to see at least eleven more. Th is herd, including 12 cows and a bull, has been in Minnedosa for two years. Town employees are kept busy checking and repairing fences and water lines, as well as keeping the bison fed. Two hundred years ago, thousands of Bison would roam through the Minnedosa Valley. Looking out into the bison compound today gives us just a small glimpse into Manitobas historic past. Th e bison compound was established in 1996 by the Minnedosa Lake Rehabilitation Committee.

Growing communities and improving lives is the focus of the Monsanto Fund. It is rewarding to see so many worthwhile, local groups benefitting based on the recommendation of farmers.
Longtime golfer opens course for 2013 season

By SARAH DALRYMPLE
he Minnedosa Golf and Country Club is now open for the 2013 season. Opening May 9th, Clayton Searle, a member with the golf course for the last 62 years, was able to carry out the first shot. Despite the brisk morning, a couple of golfers were already waiting in line to start their first game of the season. Clayton was chosen to perform the first shot due to his longstanding dedication to the sport. Searle worked on the old golf course, located at the Minnedosa Fairgrounds (future home of MREC), on the northwest side of town. He first started working as the Lawns Keeper in about 1969. Starting at 8:00 a.m., he was often seen mowing lawns and removing excess water while his wife ran the concession. It was a job I sure enjoyed! Searle stated. He also made sure to play at all the other golf courses in the area, as far away as Killarney. Asking him to share some of his favourite memories, he replied, They are all about the same, anywhere I went, we just played golf and enjoyed ourselves. In 1974 the golf course you see today began its construction. Today, it is
a lot bigger, containing 18 holes compared to the nine holes of the old golf course. Searle continued to work at the new location for the next 20 years, often playing a round of golf after work. When he wasnt kayaking at Clear Lake, he was out golfing and afterwards feasting on a traditional milkshake or ice-cream cone. A couple years ago, the year before the flood, PGA of Canada Professional Deb Pritchard reminisced, we were really wet, and we couldnt use carts for quite a few days that season. All the members here were complaining and upset because they couldnt ride, so that means they didnt want to golf. There were a few of them inside complaining and Clayton came walking up the path here with his rubber boots on, pulled his cart and away he went up the hill to walk his nine holes. He never complained, never said anything about it, just put his boots on and away he went. I never heard a peep out of those members again! At the age of 90, Searle still comes out to golf in Minnedosa twice a week. When asked about advice for parents teaching their kids how to golf this
summer, Pritchard replied, Parents, expose your kids to the game, but allow them to have fun with it. Dont make it about the technique or the technical aspects of the swing until they are ready. Just get out there and enjoy. You can enjoy it for a lifetime, Clayton has proven that.
At right, A local golf course member for over 60 years, Clayton Searle hits the first ball to officially open the 2013 season at the Minnedosa Golf Course.

A reminder worth repeating

By DARRYL HOLYK hile compiling this weeks Ye Old Trib I stumbled across a Viewpoint which appeared in Th e Tribune 20 years ago during a very controversial time regarding the idea of a new hall our current Community Conference Centre. With a number of community projects currently in the works or possibly coming down the line, such as Minnedosa Regional Events Centre, a joint health care facility between Minnedosa and Neepawa and new residential subdivisions, just to name a few, I feel this piece is worth reprinting as a positive reminder to all of us. To add to that, hats off to all those individuals, often volunteers, who dedicate so much of their time to projects which will benefi t their community, its residents and visitors for decades to come. Depending on how controversial the project is, some of these individuals face ongoing and sometimes very rude criticism from others. I have seen it on the street, at public meetings, on online forums and in submissions here in Th e Tribune. Th is can be a most unpleasant experience, especially in a small, close-knit community. Sometimes, as a result of controversial projects, communities suffer the loss of good, hard-working volunteers with real vision and leadership. Why? Often because by the time the project finally comes to fruition, they are left feeling
beaten down, worn out and completely unappreciated. Sadly, friendships are also sometimes lost over difference in opinions over a certain project or controversy. If you are currently involved in what may be a controversial project, thank you and hang in there. Its a tough job, but remember, your determination and belief in an idea today will hopefully result in something that your community can be proud of in the future and something that can be enjoyed by generations to come.

Calgary driver earns $705 speeding fine

H
ello Minnedosa readers. I for one, am glad to see the snow gone, and am loving the warm temperatures. Now with a little rain to knock down the dirt, and it will be wonderful. Now lets have a look at RCMP activity. Officers kept busy with 68 calls for service. Th ree impaired drivers were found and charged. Check stops are being implemented more often in town. Th ink about what you have to lose before you decide to drive drunk. Its not worth it. Police are looking for suspects in connection to some mischief in the southwest corner. A car window and a bird bath were destroyed and tires were slashed recently. This joins in with several other incidents in that corner of town that occurred in late April. If anyone has any information, please pass it on to your local police. As of May 1st it is now mandatory for anyone under the age of 18 to wear a helmet while riding their bike. This requirement is enforceable across the province including onreserves. Helmets are not required when the cyclist is on a private residence or farmyard. The purpose and intent of bicycle helmet legislation is to encourage the use of helmets among children and youth through an approach that focuses on education. Parents of children under the age of 14 are responsible and could be penalized for their childs failure to comply; the parent or guardian who knowingly allows their child to ride without a bicycle helmet may be ticketed. Youth between the ages of 14-18 may be fi ned directly. An educational, non-punitive approach is being taken to enforce the bicycle helmet requirements with a new online course offered as an alternative to first-time fines. Th e fi ne itself is also lower than is typical with HTA offences, totalling $63.10. The HTA amendments provide for a unique alternative disposition for a fi rst-time bicycle helmet offence. Recipients of their first fi ne will have the option of completing an online course, Th e Manitoba Bike Helmet Safety Course (BHSC). The BHSC must be completed to have the fi ne dismissed. Th e BHSC is also available for edu-

cational purposes. Spread the word. Police will be enforcing this new law from now on. A Calgary male found his way up the charts with speed this week. Speeds we normally arent used to in this neck of the woods. Not to say it doesnt happen, but its rare when someone is travelling 150km/hr in a 100km/hr zone. Cst. Dupuis tracked him down, and issued him his $705.25 fine. Hopefully he slowed down the rest of the way and managed to get back to Calgary safely, and with no further Manitoba speeding tickets. He earned the speeder of the week quite easily, without competition. Stay safe, be responsible, and enjoy the nice weather. See you on the golf course, and around town.

ast year yours truly organized a fi eld trip to Saskatchewan to see an old Ruston Hornsby diesel water pump engine in its original surroundings dating back to the early days of the twentieth century. I am planning another trip for June 15th, 2013 and I can be contacted at 204-566-2329. The engine is located in the river valley north of Grenfell, SK and it is not a long drive from Brandon. I have not booked a bus yet as I do not know how many would like to go. I know I have some repeats as it was a great experience last year when the engine was started up and running thanks to the Reynolds family from Rapid City. We can certainly car pool and make it a great day. After I picked this date, I was told of at least one wedding and an auction sale on the same day.
Th e Heritage Village buildings are shining like a new copper penny thanks to the help of local UCT and 4-H members. Over 30 people, ranging in age from 7 to 60 plus joined museum volunteers in a cleanup at the village last Saturday. Although the official opening for the 2013 musuem season isnt until July, some school tours are booked for the local historic site in June.
School reunion mixup...
Last week, I reported no calls were received from former residents interested in a Minnedosa School Reunion this summer. Th e sharp eyes of Boogie Clark caught this and I was informed that I had been misinformed. While there were no calls per say, Jim did receive two email responses from former residents now living in Brandon, interested in such a reunion. As these were the only two responses received, the local organizers decided there was not enough interest to proceed with planning a school reunion.
Thanks for the space Mr. Editor and come join us.
Kick-off to summer...

The long awaited and much anticipated May long weekend is fi nally here! Many are getting antsy to get out to their favourite campsite for the first offi cial camping weekend of the year.

Close to 600 attend Waves of Hope Fashion Show

By SARAH DALRYMPLE aves of Hope recently held their 11th Annual Fashion Show at the UCT Pavilion in Brandon on Wednesday, May 8th. Waves of Hope Dragon Boat Team were formed in 1999 for breast cancer survivors. Th eir team includes 36 members that share a common mission to celebrate life through dragon boat racing, to raise awareness, and to promote the early detection of breast cancer. Just less than 600 people arrived at this years fashion show. This years show featured fashions from nine stores from southwestern Manitoba, including The Fashion House in Minnedosa. Volunteer members
from the Brandon Firefighters, Police Service and the Keystone Centre took turns walking down the runway as models. Hosted by Karen Crest, the fashion show also included a comedic presentation by Constable Kirby Sararas that carried a serious message on being a witness. Along with a Peoples Choice Auction, the event was an over-all success. Everybody did their thing; it was a happy event to be involved with! Darlene Yurchuk said. Waves of Hope also received donations from the Firefi ghters Charity Fund in the amount of $1,000, as well as $500 from the Cinnamon Tree and French Dressing Jane campaign for running shoes. Both Darlene Yurchuck and
Sheila Taylor commented on the overwhelming community support from businesses in the area. The merchants are so wonderful. We had some beautiful prizes, and we couldnt do that without all these merchants that so generously donate. Its incredible, Taylor remarks. Waves of Hope is also going to be attending several festivals in the upcoming summer months. In addition to local festivals, they also plan to head to Florida in 2014 for the International Breast Cancer Paddlers Commission Festival. Th is is not the fi rst time the team has gone to an international festival, attending one in Vancouver and St. Peterborough. Sheila Taylor commented on her personal experience
by saying, It is awe-inspiring because you think, Oh my gosh, this isnt just me having this, its all of these people. The team has already been training since February. Once a week, most members will meet up at
the Brandon Sportsplex to execute dry land and water exercises, and then to paddle for about half an hour. Members that reside too far away from Brandon have their own exercise programs. Th e camaraderie is physical but it is also
what you might call spiritual, we are having a hoot, and keeping physically fi t! says Yurchuck. Once the ice has melted and the dock is in, they will be back pounding drums in the Minnedosa Lake.

Children ride through an obstacle course during the Bike Safety Rodeo.
By SARAH DALRYMPLE Children of all ages were in attendance. Kids were able to go over the various components of the bike and compete in obstacle races and courses. While doing so, they were taught how to execute turns using hand signs, how to deal with railway crossings, and better control over their bike. This isnt the first year the Bike Safety Rodeo has taken place. This year featured refreshments, prizes, and activity booklets. Taught by Jacki Nylen, it was an afternoon filled with laughter which helped kids to be more aware and safe while biking this summer.

n Saturday May 11th, 16 kids gathered at the Minnedosa Arena to learn about bike safety. Hosted by Healthy Active Minnedosa, the Bike Safety Rodeo is designed to teach kids the rules of the road before they hit the streets .

Madill and Roche honoured with sport awards

just some of the qualities that gave him a spot as the All-Star coach for the AllStar Provincial team in the Santa Clara League. The Mavericks have earned the League title for the last seven consecutive seasons. Baseball is not the only sport Madill has contributed to. He is also involved in the Minnedosa Bomber Hockey Club, since 1995, and a member of the Minnedosa Curling Club. Spending his winter months at local hockey and curling rinks, he spends his summer fi shing and hunting with his grandchildren. As his nominator, Carole Dalrymple, states, Although Orville is of a quiet nature, his many hours of dedicated service to sports and the community has not gone unnoticed by many people, organizations, family, and friends. Gavin Roche has also been an influential member within the sports community. In 1999, he created a Minnedosa Chancellors High School Rugby team to compete in the Westman High School Rugby League, along with Barry Dowsett and Wilf Taylor. Roche was the head coach of the rugby team from 1999 to 2012, winning a gold medal in their fi rst year. Th roughout the next years, his team would go on to win six additional gold medals, three silver medals, and two bronze medals. Gavin also represented Minnedosa by playing and coaching the Senior Barbarian rugby team in Brandon. Th e initial presence of a boys rugby team sparked the idea into creating a girls rugby team in Minnedosa, which then lead to a Mini Rugby program within the community. Now that Roche has left Minnedosa, players he coached in the past have stepped up along with Barry Dowsett to help fill his shoes. As his nominator, Martin Ingenmy, discussed, The fact that former players have stepped up to carry the torch stands testament to what rugby means to them, and what Gavin means to them. Congratulations to both Orville and Gavin on receiving this years Dedication to Sport Award.

Pirates, treasure, and high school?

By SARAH DALRYMPLE anners Crossing School held their annual play on May 8th. Kokonut Island is the 17th straight musical to be organized by Heather Emerson-Proven and Nicole McLenehan, with the help of parents and Tanners Crossing staff. Th is is not the fi rst time Tanners Crossing students have performed Kokonut Island. It was requested this year by students in Grade 8. After seeing the performance in Kindergarten, they also wanted the chance to go to Kokonut High.
Over 100 students participated in the musical this year. Th is includes the choir, made up of Grade 5 students, six stage hands, 20 dancers, nine extras, as well as 30 actors from Grades 7 and 8. Everyone that auditioned was able to take part in the performance. From the auditions in March, practices have been mostly on the students own time, including lunch hours in addition to after-school practices twice a week. Th is musical was about storm-devastated Kokonut Island that is in desperate need of money
to keep afloat. Cordelia, owner of the island, decided to open Kokonut High, a school that promises graduation to every student. However, trouble soon arose as a crime syndicate appears, as well as crazy Swampy, the ghost of Captain Kidd, and the accreditation board. Money from the ticket sales of the evening performance went towards purchasing the script, curtains, microphones, and royalties. This years cast party is set to take place this week and is sponsored by the Minnedosa Credit Union.

Newdale United Church members met on May 10th in the Church to discuss the future of our Church, when we start services in September without a regular Minister. Jen Dresser and Roland Legge will be leaving this pastoral charge at the end of June and we will certainly miss them. Further meetings will occur over the summer as we decide how to proceed on our own. This also leaves Cardale and Strathclair churches without a Minister. Roland has been the Minister at Cadurcis this past year. Shirley Pederson spent Mothers Day with her sister and brother-inlaw, Bernice and Art Atkinson in Brandon and returned home Monday.

Also, take time to enjoy the fl owers without worrying about weeds and removing dead blooms. In the end, the basic advice for gardening is usually the same. Start with a good foundation of soil by digging deeply and loosening the soil. Check how much sunshine the area receives, and then choose your plants accordingly. Next, focus on the colours. While planting, take the plants and fluff the roots in order to encourage rooting once it is placed in the soil. Water regularly and as needed. On a hot day, you may have to water your plant twice in one day. Fertilize every two weeks. Most places will recommend 20-20-20 fertilizer. Finally,

pasture yields. The same pasture can be used each year but choosing a different pasture every year will minimize the stress on your pastures, thus minimizing the need to renovate any of them. Choose pastures that are high and dry to avoid punching up the soil and further injuring the forages. Rest your sacrifice pasture for a minimum of 60 days. Remember that it may need up to 100 days to recover. Th ere are also other options to prepare pastures for the future. Consider a number of strategies this summer as you prepare for this fall or next spring. The fi rst option is to fertilize your stand according to soil tests. Adding as little as $48 per acre (50lb per acre of N and 30lb of P) can double your forage yields. At $110 per tonne for feed, all you need is another half tonne of growth to cover your costs, or about three to four inches of growth. Option two is to stockpile forage. You can leave the regrowth standing on one of your pastures for late fall grazing, or for calving on next spring. This forage is a good source of roughage, and should be grazed with supplemental feed.
Another strategy is to use winter annuals. Plant fall rye or winter wheat this year for grazing next spring. You can graze it very hard if you do not plan on taking a cut of green feed next year, but it will re-grow if you graze it carefully. Your fourth option is to seed early varieties of grass. In drier areas, crested wheatgrass will tolerate heavy spring grazing. Meadow or creeping foxtail are best for areas with higher moisture throughout the year. The foxtails are very early spring growers but they are not really suited to mid-season grazing. Consult with a local forage specialist for recommendations. Th ere are a few things you can do to get through the spring crunch. In some cases it can benefit your operation to market animals if you simply will not have enough hay or pasture. Selling those cattle early will save the forages for the rest of them, and put you ahead in the long run. If you are facing challenging pasture conditions and need advice on how to improve the situation, please contact your local MAFRI GO Office to speak with a forage specialist.

CARD OF THANKS
I would like to thank the people for their help and kindness to me during my knee transplants. For the flowers, fruit baskets, food, cards, phone calls, visits and hugs. It was all very much appreciated and you all made me feel so special. Special thanks to my sister, Liz (Almira) for her love and support. Thanks again to you all. ~Ida Andreychuk (x) The Anderson family wishes to express our sincere thanks to the staff at Minnedosa Personal Care Home for the wonderful care and kind words of encouragement while our mum, Lily Anderson, spent her final years in their care. We especially appreciate the time and kindness the staff gave to her during her final days. Thank you to Greg and the staff at Memories Chapel for all of their help and guidance at such a difficult time. The slideshow memorial they created was truly beautiful. A heartfelt thanks goes out to family, friends, and acquaintances for the hugs, words of comfort, and shared memories of Mum. The food, flowers, cards, and phone calls were greatly appreciated. Thank you to the members of Rapid City Legion #49 for the Honour Guard performed at the funeral service. Your show of respect for Mum touched us deeply. The condolences and thoughtfulness shown to us will always be remembered. ~The Anderson, Walker, and Hardy families (x) Thank you to Dr. Meyers, the ambulance and nurses of the Minnedosa District Health Centre who transferred me to Brandon Regional Health Authority.
