Fright Night for STARS
By DARRYL HOLYK
T
he Minnedosa Lions
hosted a successful
fundraiser for the STARS
Air Ambulance on the eve-
ning of Saturday, October
26th with a Fright Night at
Dalrymples Greenhouse.
With the assistance
of students from the MCI
CHANGE group and mem-
bers of the Dalrymple fam-
ily, a number of spook-
tacular pre-Halloween
attractions helped the lo-
cal Lions raise $1,460 for
STARS.
Just over 300 people
of all ages made their way
out to Dalrymples Green-
house to take in the four-
hour event which included
a pumpkin carving con-
test, haunted house attrac-
tions and refreshments.
As visitors entered
the main greenhouse they
walked along a pathway of
the many great artistic en-
tries in the pumpkin carv-
ing contest. Prizes were
awarded to the best jack-o-
lantern design in three age
categories; under 10, 11 to
17 and 18 and over.
For those looking for
a scare, there were two
haunted house attractions.
Te f rst was a guided tour
for younger visitors or
those who frighten eas-
ily. For the braver, more
daring visitors there was a
more frightening haunted
house attraction which
caused some screams and
nightmares for some!
Money raised from
the Fright Night will sup-
port the Shock Trauma Air
Rescue Society (STARS).
In February 2012, STARS
signed a ten-year agree-
ment to provide air trans-
portation emergencry res-
cue in Manitoba. Since that
time, STARS has respond-
ed to over 540 medical
emergencies in 67 diferent
Manitoba communities.
On numerous occassions,
STARS has transported
seriously injured patients
from the landing area near
Minnedosa Hospital to
Winnipeg.
As a non-proft,
STARS relies heavily on
fundraising and gener-
ous donations, such as the
Minnedosa Lions Fright
Night conribution, to con-
tinue this valuable life-sav-
ing emergency service to
all Manitobans.

ocal emergency re-
sponders were called
to a motor vehicle acci-
dent at the intersection of
Highway #270 and #25 just
south of Rivers in the early-
morning hours of October
25th.
RCMP, ambulance and
fre rescue reached a sin-
gle-vehicle rollover shortly
after 2 a.m. Te driver, a
16-year-old female and a
15-year-old female pas-
senger were both taken to
Brandon Regional Hospi-
tal with undetermined in-
juries.
Brandon RCMP con-
tinues to investigate what
led to the collision with
the assistance of an RCMP
Traf c Re-constructionist
and the RCMP Criminal
Crash Investigation Team.
Alcohol has not been ruled
out as a contributing fac-
tor, says Rob Lokhart,
RCMP spokesperson.
Since the time of the
crash, the passenger has
been released from hospi-
tal, but the driver remains
in Brandon Regional Hos-
pital in stable condition.
RCMP will not release any

T
he Minnedosa District
Museum and Heritage
Village Corp. is continu-
ally looking for new fund-
raising opportunities in
support of the Minnedosa
Heritage Village. As the
holiday season is quickly
approaching, the museum
board is hosting a memo-
ry lighting event in which
people can honour the
memory of a loved one.
Tis is not a new con-
cept, but one that many
communities ofer each
holiday season as a way to
keep the memory of loved
ones who are no longer
with us shining bright
throughout this special
time of the year. Here in
Minnedosa, we have had
two previous memory tree
of light campaigns. Te
frst was held during the
holiday season of 2000,
when sisters, Tracy, Me-
gan and Heather Horner
organized Light a Strand
for Your Loved One as
a fundraiser for various
charities in memory of
their mom, Wendy. Fol-
lowing the Light a Strand
Event, the next group to
take on a similar fund-
raiser was the Minnedosa
Kinettes who supported
various community proj-
ects with funds raised
from their annual Mem-
ory Lights. In recent
years, there has not been
a memory lighting event
in our community, but in-
terest from families want-
ing to honour a loved one
with lights remains.
Here is how Heritage
Memory Lights work; for
a donation of $10.00 per
memory, white Christmas
bulbs will be illuminated
in the spruce trees front
and centre in Tanners
Crossing Park. A special
lighting evening co-spon-
sored by the Heritage Vil-
lage and the Minnedosa
Chamber of Commerce is
currently being planned
for Sunday, November
24th. Te lights will con-
tinue to shine bright
throughout the Christmas
holiday season.
Te names of loved
ones being honoured with
Heritage Memory Lights
will be displayed in Te
Minnedosa Tribune, fol-
lowing the lighting evening
as well as on www.discov
erminnedosatribune.com

ry Lights, please see the ad

W
hen it comes to ac-
cessibility it is the
great equalizer and will go
a long way to allowing all
Manitobans to participate
fully and meaningfully in
all our province has to of-
fer.
Te Accessibility for
Manitobans Act is a good
start. Te PC Party of Man-
itoba has ofered some
important improvements
based on what consulta-
tions with experts, includ-
ing Barrier-Free Manitoba,
have yielded.
We are calling on the
government to consider
a few signifcant changes
that will take this bill from
a step-in-the-right-direc-
tion to a huge leap for-
ward, said Persons with
a Disability Critic Leanne
Rowat. We believe this
could be breakthrough
legislation and we want to
help get it there.
Te PC Party has come
up with four amendments
to Bill 26 and we look
forward to hearing what
Manitobans have to say
at public hearings. It is
our experience that when
Manitobans take the time
to present at public hear-
ings they often bring for-
ward excellent ideas.
In addition to our sup-
port for Bill 26 we have
called for an increase to
the Employment and In-
come Assistance (EIA)
Rental Allowance to 75
percent of median market
rent. T is rental allow-
ance has been fat for 20
years, while in the past 13
years the rental market has
not. Approximately one in
six or 170,000 Manitobans
lives with a disability while
tens of thousands of EIA
recipients are people with
disabilities.
Access and Ability equals Accessibility

M
innedosa Cemetery
has recently been
under scrutiny by the pub-
lic for the condition of the
yard, and in some cases,
the condition of loved ones
head stones being askew or
damaged.
Te Town of Minnedo-
sa is responsible for the
general maintenance and
monitoring of the cemetery
grounds through its public
works department, as listed
in bylaw-2519.
According to Kevin
Marcino, Public Works
and Utilities Manager, in
the summer time there is
generally public works staf
on-site performing mainte-
nance two to three days a
week for the majority of the
day.
But this time of year
we are generally only up
there if we have work to do
and we occasionally drive
through to make sure that
there is nothing out of the
ordinary, explained Mar-
cino.
Te Town Of ce states
that there are over 3,000
burials in the Minnedosa
Cemetery and the earliest
burial date is 1875.
Many concerned citi-
zens have recently written
to Te Minnedosa Tribune
about the carelessness of
the maintenance that is be-
ing performed, stating that
they believe this to be the
cause of many headstones
being chipped or knocked
askew.
Tis is something that
we have struggled with
for many years and some-
times I dont think people
understand what all is in-
volved. Sometimes you do
get stones picked up and
thrown by a mower, which
is unfortunately the nature
of the beast. We try to do
what we can but the ground
is very uneven and we do
get quite a bit of settling
which makes it dif cult,
said Marcino.
Marcino also noted
that many of the personnel
working in the cemetery
in the summer months are
temporary staf, and many
times students. As well,
the cemetery is open to
the public 24-hours a day,
making it dif cult to moni-
tor and an easy target for
vandals.
Tere are a number
of diferent issues that go
on up there. Periodically,
we end up with large holes
over night and we fll them,
creating uneven surfaces. I
have also noticed that some
of the head stones get a bit
of a tilt after really warm
temperatures. Whatever
glue has been used, dur-
ing extremely hot weather
it will slide and then when
it cools the glue will stick
again, causing a shift, said
Marcino.
After performing main-
tenance public works crews
review the area for missed
spots and any damage that
may have occurred. If dam-
age is found at the fault of
public works crews, ac-
cording to Marcino, it is
repaired or replaced by the
Town.
If it is something of
signif cant damage, we
replace the stone. If it is a
small chip in the corner we
arent able to replace the
entire stone. It is very costly
for the Town to foot the bill
for everything.
Marcino added that
it is a really unfortunate
situation, but reassures the
public that Town crews
are aware of the precious
monuments that they are
working around and do
their best to perform the
required maintenance with
as little disruption as pos-
sible.
From an operations
perspective, if you look at
the total number of com-
plaints we get over the
course of the year in com-
parison to the amount of
activity that goes on, it is
very minimal. I am not go-
ing to deny that there has
never been impact from
maintenance, but people
also need to realize that
we need to get in there in
the middle of winter, with
two-feet of snow and we do
our best to be mindful, but
sometimes incidents hap-
pen, explained Marcino.
Numerous issues afecting cemetery concerns
Tere have recently been concerns about askew
or damaged stones at Minnedosa Cemetery.

Dear Editor,
I
m writing in response to Cam Dahls recent article
Te Good Old Days - Not always so good. It seems
to me that Cam doesnt get the point of the current food
movement. At all. He spends 3/4 of the article trying to
pit the misguided city folk against the heroes in agricul-
ture, and then wraps up by agreeing that we need to know
where our food comes from.
Te current food movement has nothing to do with
romanticized trends or producing food as it was pro-
duced in the 30s. No one is crying out for houses with
no running water, wood heat, a standard of living below
poverty, etc. Im not sure where Mr. Dahl is getting his
information from but Id like to help him gain some per-
spective on this issue.
Tis is not a f ght. Te best part of whats happening
with food today is its bringing people together. Hunters
and vegan-hippies, right-wingers and lefties alike have
fnally found some common ground. Everyone has the
right to know where the food we eat comes from and can
easily become activists in creating sustainable agricul-
ture by doing only one thing - paying for what they want.
Our money is our vote and, if todays marketing trends
are any indication, were voting for Local. Organic. Hor-
mone free.
Cam refers to recent trends as the indulgences of
a rich society. Yes, organic food costs more, initially.
Organic farmers get no government subsidies or hand-
outs so budget for the fact that your tax dollars are pay-
ing for all that cheap food. Not to mention health care
costs down the road. Agricultural chemicals are proven
to cause diabetes, obesity, cancer, allergies, asthma, in-
fertility, miscarriage, birth defects, and ADHD. It all de-
pends on perspective. Right now, were paying twice.
Once to sponsor the agricultural practices that are mak-
ing us sick and again to ease our sufering and prolong
our lives using drugs and surgery. Paying more for sus-
tainable healthy practices now can cost us less in the long
run.
Im particularly upset by the argument that sustain-
able farming practices will have a negative impact on
those who are unable to pay more for food. I think this
is a dangerous attitude to have. We produce 1 1/2 times
enough food for everyone on the planet, yet nearly a bil-
lion people go hungry while over a billion are malnour-
ished. Something is wrong with the current system! Most
modern crops consist of corn, canola and soybeans. Very
little of this even makes it to our tables in the form of ac-
tual food. Much is used as feed for livestock and the rest
of these monocultures are used as preservatives in our
food, reducing our ability to fnd nutrient-dense foods in
grocery stores. Te United Nations Conference on Trade
and Development (UNCTAD)s reached the conclusion
in their 2013 report that agriculture needs to be made
truly sustainable now for food security in a changing cli-
mate.
Monocultures also have the ef ect of depleting our
soils. Cam mentions the dust bowl of the dirty 30s . No,
our soil is not currently blowing into Ontario, as Cam
stated. But topsoil is depleting so rapidly that were los-
ing much of Canadas agricultural land to soil degrada-
tion. Soil degradation is the depletion of the productive
capability of Canadas precious soils. A study done by Te
Standing Senate Committee on Agriculture, Fisheries
and Forestry in 1984 found that on lands afected by deg-
radation in the prairies, crop yields have been reduced
by 10 to 75 percent, even though farmers have increased
their use of fertilizer. Its important for prairie dwellers
to remember the efects of the dust bowl so we can pre-
vent further loss of our valuable topsoil. Organic soil has
been proven time and again to be much more absorb-
ent than chemically farmed soil, meaning it holds more
water during droughts and foods. Plants grown organic-
ally also have a much bigger root system so they can last
longer in our extreme prairie weather.
And thats only the plants! What about the meat we
eat? Cam begs the question How can anyone consider
it humane not to treat an animal that has become sick?
Tat seems like a simple question, but its not. I, person-
ally, dont have a problem eating meat from an animal
that has received an antibiotic treatment because it was
actually sick. What I do have a problem with are animals
being fattened up quickly with a high-grain diet, forcing
their rumens (the specialized stomach chamber in graz-
ing animals stomachs that digests fbrous foods, such as
grass) to become too acidic. Tis condition can progress
to something called acute acidosis. To prevent this
from happening, animals are given a steady diet of anti-
biotics. Tis is only one example of the current need for
preventative, blanket antibiotic treatments. Believe me,
there are more. A healthy animal, pastured, and only fed
a moderate amount of grain to promote marbling, would
not need this absurd amount of antibiotics just to keep
them alive and fat enough to make it to market.
I applaud Cams conclusion to his article where he
seems to agree with agriculture needing to get ahead of
the new trends but I dont know why he spends so much
time making non-factual arguments against said trends
to get to this conclusion. Hopefully, when he says mod-
ern agriculture should show our urban cousins the ef-
fort we make to protect the environment and to care for
our animals, he doesnt persuade himself into believing
that his ill-informed article has done this. I found a lot of
his arguments insulting and illogical. To me, it seems
hes trying to pull the wool over our eyes in order that we
keep buying the same cheaper, processed foods weve
been eating for the same amount of time that western-
ized disease cases (i.e. heart disease, cancer, immuno-
logical disorders) have been skyrocketing. I, for one, will
keep voting for sustainable practices when Im at the gro-
cery store or, better yet, buying food from a local, organic
farmer.

When it comes to food,
money is our vote
Dear Editor,
I
t disgusts me to no living end that animals are dumped
on the side of a road like theyre a piece of trash that
you can just dispose of.
On Saturday, October 26th I was on my way home
from Hamiota when I witnessed an animal drop. Need-
less to say I rescued the kittens from a cruel fate of either
freezing to death or worse yet being run over. Tese little
gafers are only about six weeks old and dont know how
to fend for themselves. If you dont want babies than get
your animals fxed plain and simple. I dont think its fair
to me and other people who rescue them out of the kind-
ness of their hearts who dont want to see the animals
sufer.
It would also be nice if there was an animal shelter
closer than Brandon that could look after these poor
defenceless animals until a loving home is found for
them. Tey have no voice so let ours be theirs.

Dear Editor,
I
was out to Minnedosa the frst part of October 2013
and went up to the cemetery to visit my parents grave
site and was very disappointed to see the condition of the
graves. It seems like the majority that I looked at were
slightly askew and that had to be from being hit by some
machinery. One grave laying fat on the ground had been
run over and cracked right across and I do believe that
no one is left in that family to have any say on the matter.
Other years when I have been to visit the cemetery
I have felt that things have been pretty good but would
like to know what the problem is this time. Surely other
people have noticed the same problem as once I saw my
parents graves I then looked at several others and all
seemed to be in the same condition.
Shame on the Town for letting this take place without
proper maintenance, or fxing of the problem. Does no
one go up there to check on things after grass cutting has
been done? I dont think anyone should have to go up
every week but at least once a month would be suf cient.
Do other people not see what is going on and if so I am
sure there have been other complaints.
A very disappointed visitor.

pany will remain in peak production well in excess of the
next 12 months.
1963 Plans have been approved for an addition to
the Minnedosa District Hospital. Te plan includes a
south wing which will increase the current capacity of 25

H
ello, and welcome
to another edition of
Cops Corner. Happy No-
vember 1st!
Winter is just around
the corner, and you may
have noticed another col-
umn by a retired Mountie
who provided some tips.
Have a good read through
his column, as it provides
many great tips for winter
driving.
Once winter begins,
and snow begins to fy, it
is of utmost importance
to be checking highway
conditions before de-
parting from home. Road
conditions all across the
province can be found by
simply typing Manitoba
Highway Conditions into
Google. Tis will provide
dif erent options, from
CAA, to a government
website with updated traf-
fc conditions on highways.
Its always important
to check for road closures.
Although there is not a tick-
et in the Highway Traf c
Act for driving on a closed
road (I wish there was) it is
smart to pay attention for
road closure signs and stop
in the nearest town be-
fore proceeding. If you get
stuck, there are plenty of
times where police will not
be coming out on the high-
way to get you. You will be
asked to pull over to the
side of the road, and wait
till traf c conditions im-
prove. It is likely tow trucks
will not go on closed high-
ways either. Patience is a
virtue, and it is true when it
comes to winter driving as
well. Give yourself time to
arrive at your destination.
If you end up being in
a hurry on winter roads, it
often causes accidents. If a
person is not driving to the
conditions and it is noted
in the police investigation,
the driver will receive an
imprudent driving ticket
with a price tag of $203.80.
If very poor driving is ob-
served, a driver may be
charged with careless
driving. Tis f ne is to be
determined, and MPI
takes more demerits then
the imprudent driving
ticket. Hopefully between
my column and the other
extensive column, this
will get you thinking about
your winter driving plans,
and hopefully you will feel
better prepared to hit the
road in the winter season.
Be safe out there.

on a traf c stop on Main
Street. Te vehicle driver
did not have a permit for
the gun, and it was taken
by police. Te male was ar-
rested and charged.
An impaired driver
was located and arrested in
Rapid City. He was caught
trying to escape down a
back alley after leaving
the Queens Hotel. Be-
ing sneaky doesnt always
help. And thats a perfect
example where it didnt
quite work out for the in-
dividual. I would say better
luck next time, but no. A
better statement would be
Dont Drink and Drive.
Several major acci-
dents occurred lately in
our area. One happened at
Highway #10 and #16 south
junction. Luckily it ended
up being an injury free ac-
cident. Tis was lucky for
the six people involved in
it. It could have been much
worse.
Another vehicle trav-
elling down a gravel road
ended up swerving to miss
a deer. Over correction
caused the vehicle to hit
the ditch and roll. Te two
people in the vehicle have
some injuries at this point
and are recovering.
Rapid City also had a
terrible f re that claimed
their Fire Hall and Town
Of ce. Tis is a big shock
to the community. Te
Fire Commissionaires Of-
fce investigated the cause,
and determined it was
not arson, but instead, a
faulty extension cord that
lit some cardboard on fre
that initiated the blaze to
the rest of building. Fire
trucks were also destroyed
in the fre.
A Neepawa male was
located travelling at a
speed of 126km/hr. Not the
fastest speeder of all time,
but he was crowned victo-
rious this time around. Te
male received a $391.25
ticket for his eforts.
Tanks for reading the

F
rontier Trading Company Inc., continues to struggle
with vandals. Te Minnedosa Tribune frst reported
the problems at Frontier six weeks ago, employees say
the article may have slowed thieves down, but it is cer-
tainly did not stop them.
It wasnt as bad as it had been in the past. After the
original article went in the paper on September 13th, it
slowed down for a few days and then the following week
it started up again, explained Rita Creighton, executive
director of Frontier Trading Company.
Of enders have been repeatedly trespassing after
hours, rummaging through donation bins, taking what
appeals to them and leaving the rest scattered through-
out the parking lot.
It is frustrating. If they are going through a bag be-
cause they need something, then at least leave the other
items intact. If it rains, the items that generous commu-
nity members have donated to us are getting ruined,
added Creighton.
Creighton noted that donation bins continue to be
tampered with at least three to four times a week and be-
lieves that they are trespassing between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m.
Whoever is doing this is coming either in the middle of
the night or really early in the morning. I usually drive by
in the evening sometime and then again at six in morn-
ing, almost every day. Te bins are always f ne in the
evening and then by six, they are torn apart, explained
Sheila Josland, Frontier Trading Company Inc., board
president.
Frontier is asking for the communitys assistance
to keep their eyes open to any suspicious activity on its
property and would also like to add a surveillance cam-
era to their donation wish list.
I would like to take this matter to the RCMP, but
with no actual evidence or tips to go of of, not much can
be done at this point, said Creighton.

C
onstruction of the
new Town shed has
come to a halt. After com-
pleting the insulated shell
of the building, tenders
for the fnishing works
came back much higher
than expected, causing
Town of cials to hold of
on construction and re-
examine building plans.
When it was specked
out for us in the tender
process and it was signif-
cantly higher than what
we had expected. We
have sent it back and have
asked what we could take
out of the building in or-
der to get the costs down,
explained Kevin Marcino,
Public Works and Utilities
Manger for the Town of
Minnedosa.
Engineers are be-
ing asked to reassess the
buildings plans and elimi-
nate any features that do
not directly impact the
functionality of the build-
ing.
We would like to
have the new building
completed as soon as pos-
sible, but that will hinge
on whether we are able
to get some work started
before the winter. Te
longer the planning and
tender process takes the
less chance we will have
for construction crews to
be able to pour concrete,
explained Marcino.
Te new Town shed is
a replacement building for
the Towns current shed.
Te new building will host
the public works of ce, all
of the Towns equipment
storage as well as a new
addition to the shed, the
Town emergency com-
mand centre.
Te emergency com-
mand centre is currently
located at the Town Of ce,
but functionality is some-
what small so we were go-
ing to have an area allot-
ted for the EMO of cer as
well.
Marcino noted that
construction will not
commence until engineer
plans are congruent with
the budget, but hopes that
the building will be func-
tional by next fall.
Frontier continues
to be plagued
by vandals

By BARRETT NELSON
I
t is almost that time of
year again, when we can
expect the usual Manitoba
fall ice storms, winter snow
storms and blizzards.
T e snowstorm last
year on October 5th, 2012
left thousands in the
southeast of the province
without electricity. Te
recent three to four feet of
snow in South Dakota on
October 5th, 2013 brought
that part of the country to a
halt for a day and brought
a list of other problems to
deal with in the days and
weeks following.
Fortunate for Manito-
ba that storm did not make
it to Canada this time
around. However, it does
show that nature is consis-
tent and reminds us that
as the season changes we
must be prepared for what
is comingsevere fall and
winter weather.
Ice storms
Freezing rain is tough,
it clings to everything it
touches and is more slip-
pery than snow. A little
freezing rain is dangerous,
but a lot can be catastroph-
ic. Ice from freezing rain
accumulates on branches,
power lines and buildings.
If you must go outside
when a signifcant amount
of ice has accumulated,
pay attention to branches
or wires that could break
due to the weight of the ice
and fall on you.
Ice sheets could also
do the same. Never touch
power lines. A hang-
ing power line could be
charged (live) and you
would run the risk of elec-
trocution.
Remember also that
ice, branches or power
lines can continue to break
and fall for several hours
after the end of the precipi-
tation.
When freezing rain
is forecast, avoid driving.
Even a small amount of
freezing rain can make
roads extremely slippery.
Wait several hours af-
ter freezing rain ends so
that road maintenance
crews have enough time to
spread sand or salt on icy
roads.
Rapid onsets of freez-
ing rain combined with the
risks of blizzards increase
the chances for extreme
hypothermia. If you live
on a farm, move livestock
promptly to shelter and
ensure feed is available.
Forage is often temporar-
ily inaccessible during
and immediately after ice
storms. Animal reactions
to ice storms are similar to
that of blizzards.
Cattle producers in
South Dakota not only face
the possible loss of tens of
thousands of animals in
the wake of the October
5th, 2013 record-breaking
snowstorm, but will have
to manage weather-related
stress in their surviving
herds. For good reason,
ranchers will want to hold
of on any processing,
weaning or long-distance
transport of cattle for a
week or two after such a
high-stress weather event.
Be Prepared For A
Power Outage
Be prepared for a pow-
er outage: Keep essential
items in an emergency box
and store it where it will
be easy to fnd in the dark.
Candles and matches;
f ashlight and extra bat-
teries; portable radio and
extra batteries; bottled
water; food that doesnt re-
quire cooking; manual can
opener; blankets.
If your freezer is full,
the food will keep for sev-
eral days when the power
is of. Open it as little as
possible to prevent cold air
from escaping.
Fuel-burning equip-
ment that is not con-
nected to a chimney or
vent should not be used
indoors. Many appliances
generate dangerous lev-
els of carbon monoxide
very quickly. If you want to
cook, have extra briquettes
or propane on hand for
your barbecue. Be sure to
provide adequate venti-
lationnever barbecue
indoors or in an enclosed
space.
If you have a f replace,
keep a supply of frewood
available. If you have a
natural gas freplace, make
sure it is serviced and
working properly. Many
natural gas freplaces will
continue to work without
electricity. A power outage
may mean your furnace
wont work. Most natural
gas furnaces need electric-
ity to operate.
If freezing is possible,
turn of the main water
valve, drain the water lines
and add plumbing anti-
freeze to the toilet bowl,
sink and bath drains. Turn
of and drain the water
heater. Turn of all electri-
cal appliances. Pay special
attention to those appli-
ances you may have been
using when the power
went out (i.e. stove/oven).
Unplug electronic equip-
ment to protect it from a
voltage surge when power
is restored. Keep one light
plugged in and turned on,
so you will know when the
electricity is back on.
If you are leaving your
house during an outage,
turn of the main breaker.
Tis reduces the chance
of appliance damage and
safety problems if power
is restored while you are
away.
Extreme and f uctuat-
ing weather conditions,
including high humidity,
below-freezing tempera-
tures, and ice storms can
cause ice to form on power
lines. Manitoba Hydro will
remove ice from power
lines as quickly as pos-
sible to prevent equipment
breakage and loss of pow-
er.
Ice weight can put a
lot of stress on power lines
and damage equipment. In
windy conditions, icy lines
can whip violently and gal-
lop, causing tie wires to
break, wood poles to snap,
and even steel towers to
crumple. Manitoba Hy-
dro will attempt to restore
power by two methods; Ice
melting or Ice Rolling.
Ice melting may re-
quire Manitoba Hydro to
shut of the power to cer-
tain customers, but its a
short-term outage that can
help prevent signifcant
equipment damage result-
ing in longer outages.
Power is cut to a cer-
tain section of lines, and
the customers serviced by
those lines, for one to three
hours. A controlled short-
circuit is placed at one end
of a sub-transmission line.
Te current f ow creates a
gradual temperature in-
crease that heats up the
line and melts the ice.
Melting can only be
done when the outside
temperature is 7degrees
or higher. Using two crews
of three to four people
each, (one crew working
outside on the equipment
and the other crew work-
ing in a control room) we
can melt the ice of 3050
kilometres of line in about
three hours. Manitoba
Hydro developed the ice
melting process more than
30 years ago and is rec-
ognized as leaders in the
feld.
Ice Rolling is when a
roller, attached to the end
of a long pole or rope, is
hung onto a conductor.
In windy or wet weather,
the power is turned of; in
some weather conditions,
it can be left on. Tis is a
manual procedure where
the roller is pulled along
the power line, cracking
the ice of as it goes. Tis
is often done in freezing
rain and storm condi-
tions. Rolling is done when
melting is not an option. A
10-person crew can de-ice
roughly 1.6 kilometres of
line per hour.
Be prepared for what winter has in store

ommunities in Bloom
held its national sym-
posium this past week-
end, showcasing and rec-
ognizing communities
from across the country
and their commitment to
bettering and beautifying
their corner of Canada.
Local Communities
in Bloom representatives,
Cheryl Orr and Donna
Dillabough, attended
the national symposium
which was held in Ottawa-
Gatineau, October 25th
and 26th.
Registered cities and
towns across the country
were broken down into
population categories and
judged though the sum-
mer months on tidiness,
heritage conservation, en-
vironmental action, land-
scape, urban forestry, turf
and ground covers, foral
displays and community
involvement.
Minnedosa was reg-
istered in the 2,001-5,000
population group. With
fve other towns compet-
ing in the same category,
Minnedosa did not win,
but did receive a four out
of fve bloom rating. Judges
made special mention of
the beach fower garden.
Te beach that came
with the development of
the man-made Minnedo-
sa Lake 101 years ago
received make-over at-
tention recently. Te CIB
Committee, with the sup-
port of Town staf, and vol-
unteers including students
from the Minnedosa Col-
legiate revamped a corner
foral display at the beach
and created a gravel gar-
den. Te design includes
a foot bridge arching over
a dry stream bed of rocks
and stones with a vine cov-
ered pergola. Perennial
shrubs and fowers form
the backdrop to the stream
bed and annuals provide
colours at the front bor-
der. A friendship bench,
donated by Hiromu Kita-
oka, Ishii, Japan, to com-
memorate three memo-
rable exchange visits with
sister Town, Minnedosa,
added a grace note to the
garden, wrote Communi-
ties in Bloom judges Lucy
Chang and Sylvie Belley,
who toured Minnedosa in
mid-August.
Sussex, New Bruns-
wick was the winner of the
2,001-5,000 population
category.
While Minnedosa did
not win its category, local
representatives found the
experience of participating
and attending the national
competition to be worth-
while.
We didnt win, but
it was a good experience.
I had never been to Ot-
tawa before so it was re-
ally interesting. It was also
nice to have to opportu-
nity to network with other
communities and see the
things that they are doing
in their towns, said Cheryl
Orr, Minnedosa Commu-
nities in Bloom president.
Te National sympo-
sium announced the win-
ners for each category,
but also hosted a number
of conferences, keynote
speakers and group ses-
sions. Delegates also had
the opportunity to visit
Rideau Hall and Learning
Centre at the Canada Agri-
culture and Food Museum.
Award ceremonies
were held at Ottawa City
Hall, Teatre de Casino du
Lac-Leamy, Government
of Canada Conference
centre.
In mid-August judges
were escorted around town
and evaluated the diferent
areas according to their
specifc CIB criteria. Along
with the evaluation, judges
provide recommendations
of ways to improve.
Tey dont just look
for your fowers, they look
for tidiness, environmental
initiatives and community
involvement. Community
involvement is important,
they like to see community
members of all diferent
ages involved, explained
Orr.
Along with the beach
garden, the judges were
very pleased of the Rivers
Edge Recreation Park and
made specifc mention of
it in their report, as well
as the geothermal initia-
tives at the golf course and
library and the solar pow-
ered bathroom on the top
nine.
Te judges evalu-
ation is quite extensive.
Tey go over every topic,
what they observe, their
recommendations and
then they determine your
points. Tey have given us
a number of recommenda-
tions for a variety of difer-
ent areas around town. We
are going to have to do our
homework and then pos-
sibly look at implementing
some of them, said Orr.
CIB judges mentioned
that it would be benefcial
to look at various grant
sources to help with the
restoration of the CPR
station and landscaping
around the building, they
would like to see the Town
implement integrated pest
management practices
without chemicals, and
consider creating a tree in-
ventory.
Te judges were not
aware of a tree inventory in
Minnedosa, if not it might
be a good time to devel-
op one for the following
reasons: to help map out
existing trees, make infor-
mation easily accessible
including the height, age,
spread, health and specif-
ics. Te reason for that is to
identify specifc diseases
and track population size,
Chang and Belley wrote in
the town evaluation.
Judges also mentioned
that the lookout tower that
is maintained by the Lions
Club could be further en-
hanced with a focal view-
ing point of the town, with
a well designated entrance
and foot path. Also sug-
gested was the creation of
a community garden and
increasing the size of the
hanging fower baskets.
Tese are some of
the little things that they
have brought to our atten-
tion. We will likely review
all of these comments as
a committee and then de-
cide whether or not we will
move forward with them,
added Orr.
Minnedosa CIB will
be looking at various im-
provements to implement,
but has no plans in partici-
pating in the national com-
petition next year.
Tere is only so much
you can do in a year and so
we are working on gradu-
ally building up our fow-
ers and initiatives. As it
stands right now I think we
will skip a year and then
look at re-entering the pro-
vincial competition the
following year, but we will
have to reassess once that
gets closer, said Orr.
Te Communities
in Bloom committee is
planning on preparing
a short presentation for
city council on the judges
comments and recom-
mendations as well as the
initiatives that have been
implemented by the com-
mittee thus far.
Orr noted that the
committee has received
great support from the
community, Town Coun-
cil, local greenhouses as
well as the public works
crew.
We are very lucky
to be well received in the
community. Tis was a
pretty big undertaking for
Minnedosa and it makes a
big diference having peo-
ple that are willing to help
out. We are also always
looking for something new
and diferent every sum-
mer. If anyone has any new
ideas for the town or if you
would like to join Com-
munities in Bloom, we are
always looking for new
people to get involved.

M
any small prairie
towns exist today
only in memories mem-
ories in the minds of the
founders whose recollec-
tions died with them and
were buried in nearby
cemeteries or church-
yards. Most of the build-
ings have fallen down or
been moved away, many
old town sites have been
ploughed into crops, and
the spirits of the towns lin-
ger in the area only in the
minds of its former resi-
dents, themselves dying
out. After a time, no one
remembers, unless a far-
thinking group of people
in those towns peer into
the dim future and decide,
We must preserve these
memories!
In many rural Mani-
toba communities, those
memories are being pre-
served in local community
archives. But beyond the
general sense, what value
do local archives hold for
their communities?
Te intrinsic value of
a communitys archives -
no matter how you choose
to defne community - is
that it is the memory of
that community. Archives
preserve and make acces-
sible the records of our ad-
ministrative bodies, local
newspapers, homestead
and school records. A few
genealogists have donated
the printed results of labo-
rious research into their
families histories; private
citizens have ofered pre-
cious family photographs
found in their elderly rela-
tives albums. Many lo-
cal committees and orga-
nizations have entrusted
their local archives with
the records of their com-
munity activities over the
years. Archives also prize
the documents and arti-
facts concerning the lives
of citizens whose activities
brought prosperity and re-
nown to their community.
An archives is its commu-
nity.
Tere is, as well, a very
practical aspect to consid-
er when speculating about
the value of a communi-
tys archives. Te informa-
tion lying on our shelves
has been of defnite his-
torical, educational, legal,
social and economic value
to those who make inqui-
ries each and every year.
Te users of archives are
vast and varied - authors,
genealogists, businesses,
flm makers, associations,
students, teachers all of
them use archival records
to explore the past as a
means of answering ques-
tions in the present.
Archives can also
have an economic impact
in their communities. Ar-
chival records are of inter-
est to individuals all over
the world. For example,
genealogy is a major occu-
pation of many these days,
and an archives is one
of the places most likely
to contain information
about ancestors. Often,
people pursue their quest
for such information in
person and if they wish to
consult the records held in
a communitys archives,
they must come to that
community. Once here,
they are likely to buy gas
for their cars, eat a meal or
two in restaurants, shop in
a local store, perhaps even
stay overnight in a hotel;
all of these activities con-
tribute cash directly to the
local economy.
Te contribution an
archives makes to its com-
munity in a social context
is almost too complex to
describe. Te citizens of a
community regard the Ar-
chives as a repository for
the details of their past.
Tey can and should treat
the Archives as an eas-
ily accessible source of
information, and also as a
trusted place to store their
own and their communi-
tys history.
Rural and North-
ern Archives Manitoba
(RNAM), a special interest
group of the Association
for Manitoba Archives
(AMA), is a dedicated or-
ganization of archives
that are committed to pre-
serving the memories of
communities - cultural,
religious, ethnic, region-
al, educational - in rural
Manitoba. In Minnedosa,
the Minnedosa Regional
Archives has been respon-
sible for collecting the re-
cords of our community
since 2006.
RNAM members are
often asked why a rural
community needs an ar-
chives when the Archives
of Manitoba exists to pre-
serve Manitobas heritage.
In response we argue that
the Archives of Manitoba
exists to preserve Mani-
tobas history; our local
archives in Carberry,
Boissevain, Minnedosa,
Neepawa, Winkler, Altona,
Brandon, Te Pas, Strath-
clair, Richer, MacGregor
and other towns across
the province exist to
preserve our local com-
munitys history. Te de-
tailed history each of our
little spots on the Prairies
would be lost or culled in
the huge Provincial Ar-
chives, where few of the
acquisitions that we pre-
serve would see the light
of day. Te value of Mani-
tobas rural archives rests
in the stories they can tell
us about the individu-
als and families, coun-
cils, schools, businesses
and organizations in our
communities and in the
preservation of memories
of fun, mischief, sadness,
success and tragedy that
make each of our commu-
nities unique.

F
our dancers from the
local dance troupe,
Expressive Dance with
Crystal, were nominat-
ed to attend the Scottish
Dance Teachers Alliance
North American Confer-
ence. McKenna Angus
from Dauphin, April Bil-
cowski from Minnedosa,
Maia Wallis from Erickson
and Heather Waddell from
Shoal Lake, received top
honours for their theory
exams during November
2012 Highland Medals
Tests held in Brandon.
Tis exceptional conduct
took our girls, along with
their moms and instruc-
tor Crystal Scott, to the
Sheraton Hotel in Toronto
on October 25th to 27th
2013. Unfortunately due
to Heathers birth date, she
didnt meet the age crite-
ria and was unable to at-
tend. Hopefully next year
Heather, well keep our
toes crossed for you!
Te Friday was an all
day scholarship compe-
tition for 50 juniors, age
10 to 14, and 28 seniors,
age 15 to 18; separated by
which level of theory exam
completed in November
of 2012. Tey competed
in several areas: a master
class following an instruc-
tor dancing non-Highland
technique to see how pro-
fcient a dancer they were,
a one hour written theory
exam, dance a Highland
Fling, Sword Dance, Trib-
ute to James L. McKenzie
dance and a self-choreog-
raphy. Results were tabu-
lated and winners would
be announced at the Sat-
urday evening banquet.
Te rest of the week-
end was blocked in to
workshops: dance teach-
ers workshops, Champi-
onship steps for 2013 High-
land Dances, Premiership
Nationals dances, Irish
Jig and Sailors Hornpipe.
Te event even included
non-Highland aspects:
yoga for Highland dancers,
Swing dance and a Hal-
loween themed Hip Hop
dance by Josh and Josh
from Defning Movement
Dance Company located
in the Hamilton area. Tis
was one of the girls most
favourite moments as it
brought them out of their
comfort zone and intro-
duced them to new styles.
Saturday night Ban-
quet started with a tartan
carpet entrance for each
dancer as their name and
location in North Ameri-
can was announced, fol-
lowed by a slide show of
the dancers. Two diferent
bufet style suppers, a 12
and under table and a sep-
arate 13 and over spread of
food.
T en it was award
time! Te top 10 were an-
nounced and presented
with a medal in each of
the four categories: master
class, theory exam, three
Highland dances and the
self-choreography. April
Bilcowski received eighth
place for her written theory
exam! Congrats April! And
fnally the top three overall
dancers were chosen from
the junior and senior cat-
egories.
Te evening then con-
cluded with a Highlands
Got Talent concert: Jazz
dance duet, a Bollywood
East Indian style dancer
and several vocalists, in-
cluding Colleen McGregor
(one of the Dorothys from
the Over the Rainbow TV
series) and the dancers
performed their Swing and
Hip Hop routines they had
learned at the workshops.
Sunday was another busy
day of workshops and then
of for home.
T e overall impres-
sion was a positive one.

nique, experiencing dif-
ferent teachers and judges

Dear Reena,
How do you make
great gravy? Can you give
me a hint for darkening
homemade gravy? My gra-
vy is always light in color
and looks bland. Tanks,
Lorraine
Dear Lorraine,
Te art of gravy making
can be a challenge. Many
people use too much four,
which decreases the favor.
Remember the gravy will
continue to thicken after
it has been removed from
the heat. When cooking
time on the meat is almost
complete, pour of most of
the drippings into a 2-cup
measuring cup and let the
mixture cool. Next add
enough beef broth into the
measuring cup to make 2
cups. Add a little less than
one quarter cup corn-
starch or white four. Whisk
in the measuring cup until
no lumps remain. Using a
double boiler, slowly heat
and stir the gravy until
thick. If you do not own a
double boiler use a pot, stir
constantly and set the heat
at less than medium. If
gravy is too thick, add a bit
of water or broth to thin. To
darken gravy stir in a small
amount (about half tsp.)
of instant cofee granules,
soya sauce, dark molasses
or Worcestershire sauce.
Extra Tip: If you
choose to make gravy
ahead of time, put it in a
slow cooker to keep it hot!
Hi Reena,
What suggestions do
you have to get smoke
smell out of cars? Tanks,
Jim
Dear Jim,
Begin by vacuuming
and cleaning the interior
of the vehicle including
all vinyl, leather, carpet
and upholstery. You may
want to take this project
on yourself or hire a pro-
fessional. After the interi-
or is clean, place an open
bag of activated charcoal
or kitty litter or 10 drops
of essential oil in the ve-
hicle for several weeks.
Instead of car fresheners,
it is efective to store an
open bar of soap in the
car. Soap fragrances are
mild (depending on the
soap) and if the fresh soap
smell fades, grate the side
of the soap with your keys.
Te soap will once again
freshen the air inside your
vehicle.
Dear Reena,
What is the best way
to get rid of the stinky and
stale smell of lunch bags?
School only began in Sep-
tember and I am ready to
throw the bags out. Help!
Candace
Dear Candace,
Step one is to get rid
of food as soon as possi-
ble. Food that sits in lunch
bags molds and smells
badly. Step two, some par-
ents include milk in lunch
bags, if any milk seeps out
of the thermos the bag
will stink and cleaning
becomes a chore. If ther-
mos milk is included in
the bag, put it inside of a
sealable bag to separate it
from the bag.
Most lunch bags can
be cleaned by placing
them on the top rack of the
dishwasher and running
them through the regular
cycle. Or place one of the
following inside the bag: A
piece of bread dampened
with white vinegar, cin-
namon sticks or a piece of
cardboard with essential
oils on it. Leave overnight
and discard in the morn-
ing.

Gerald A. Erickson
January ,
October ,
Born January 28, 1924 at
Goodwater, Saskatchewan
to Richard and Bertha (nee
Johnson) Erickson, he was the
eldest of four boys: Gerald,
Vernon, Eldon and Arthur.
He was predeceased by his
parents, Richard and Bertha;
his brothers, Arthur and Eldon;
sister-in-law, Marion; nephew,
Don; and niece, Gwen. He was also
predeceased by his Mother and Father-in-law, May and
Lewis Parker; sister-in-law, Marion Bowen, her husband, Percy;
brother-in-law, Al Gleadall, and great grandchildren, Alyssa
Parenteau and Dianna Collen.
He met and married his wife, Eunice on October 26, 1963
(today is their 50th wedding anniversary); they were fortunate
to celebrate their anniversary in early October when Josie
Erickson, his sister-in-law, was able to attend from Alberta.
He leaves to mourn his wife, Eunice Erickson, and their
children, Karen and husband, Ken Parenteau and Lois and
husband, George Collen, 6 grandchildren: Allan, Audra and
Mike Parenteau, Jason, Rob, and Scott Collen, and 12 great
grandchildren: Jordin and Nicholas Parenteau, TJ Instance,
Torrey Wright, Chloe, Talia and Phoebe Parenteau, William,
Erin and George Collen, Samantha and Kirsten Collen.
He is survived by his brother, Vernon Erickson; niece Linda
and husband Rod Cook; nephews Ross and Robert Erickson;
sister-in-laws, Bev Parker, Josie Erickson and her children,
Richard, Judy, Paul, Joyce, Joanne and Gerald, and numerous
great nieces and nephews.
In addition to their natural children, Gerald and Eunice
were also the loving parents of 43 foster children over a 15 year
period. Tese children, too, held a special place in Geralds
heart.
Gerald spent his younger years in Saskatchewan; at the
age of 12 they moved to Manitoba. At 16, he moved back to
Saskatchewan to help his Uncle George farm. Ten in 1948,
he moved back to Manitoba and worked construction in Bird
River, Manitoba. Ten he moved to Clanwilliam to farm and
also worked for Nylen Construction as a carpenter. Working
the land, caring for his farm animals, and especially his beloved
dogs, Smitty 1, 2, and 3, Sheba, and Mindy were very dear to
Gerald. When he wasnt farming, Gerald played a strong
support role around the home. During the winter, his ski-doo
was often used to ferry Eunice up and down the lane when it
was time to head to town for groceries or curling. In these ways,
and in so many others, he exhibited his kindness, concern and
devotion to his family.
Gerald and Eunice lived on the farm until 1998 when they
purchased their home in Minnedosa where they continued to
live until his passing on October 23, 2013.

Your memory is my keepsake
with which I will never part.
God has you in His keeping
I have you in my heart.
