The Great Plains Col-lege Board of Governors an-nounced December 1 that David Francis has left the position of president and CEO of the college. “We wish Mr. Francis all the best in his future en-deavors,” said board member Trevor Koot in making the announcement. Bruce Probert has been appointed interim president and CEO. Probert served as president and CEO of Prai-rie West College and as for-mer vice-president of Great Plains College. “Bruce brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to our college and the board has the utmost confi dence that he will provide leader-ship and guidance through this transition period,” Koot added. “In addition, we have great staff at the college and they will continue to meet the educational needs of students and employers throughout the region.” Great Plains College holds more than 50 years of combined post-secondary history and provides ser-vice to a region that includes more than 100,000 square ki-lometers and 115,000 poten-tial students.

Full-time employment in Saskatchewan increased by 7,800 jobs compared to No-vember 2010, says Statistics Canada. Total full-time employ-ment at 435,600 is the high-est on record for the month of November as a result of part-time jobs changing to full-time employment oppor-tunities. Saskatchewan’s unem-ployment rate increased to 5.1 per cent in the month of November from 4.1 per cent in October. The unem-ployment rate is second in the country behind Alberta at 5.0 per cent and well be-low the national average of 7.4 per cent. Regina’s unem-ployment rate was 3.5 per cent, the lowest in the coun-try and Saskatoon’s (5.5 per cent) was sixth lowest.

Town hopes newradar signs curb residential speeding

By TERRY [email protected]

Two permanent radar signs installed on Crystal Springs Drive in Warman are de-

signed to discourage speeding in the residential neighbourhood. Wade Eberle, Bylaw Enforce-ment Offi cer for the Town of Warman, said the signs were erected in late November. “The decision to install the signs was made by town council,” explained Eberle. “There were con-cerns that Crystal Springs Drive has a lot of traffi c, particularly at certain times of the day, and that traffi c was going too fast. There are a lot of kids in that neighbour-hood, and drivers need to realize they have to use extra caution.” The signs – one facing south-bound and one facing northbound – are located along a portion of the road which has some restrict-ed visibility because of a gentle curve. The signs use a radar sig-nal to indicate to oncoming driv-ers the speed their vehicle is trav-

Newly-installed traffi c signs along Crystal Springs Drive in Warman use a radar signal to indicate the speed of oncoming vehicles and serve as a visual reminder to motorists to slow down. The signs were erected in late November because of concerns about safety in the resi-dential neighbourhood.

elling. The posted speed limit for all streets within Warman, including Crystal Springs Drive and other major traffi c arteries, is 40 kilome-ters per hour. Eberle said the signs are per-manent. Electrical power for the signs was trenched in a week be-fore the signs were installed No-vember 21. In addition to indicating speeds to oncoming drivers, the signs also record the speed of ev-ery vehicle that passes them, digi-tally stamping that record with the time and date. That electronic information can later be accessed by computer at the Town Offi ce, providing a visual record of traffi c counts and speeds. The record al-lows enforcement offi cers to moni-tor the effectiveness of the signs. “We can download the data periodically and provide the in-formation to the RCMP and town council,” explained Eberle. “It’s a useful tool as well as an effective deterrent to speeding. The objec-

tive is to reduce ac-cidents, and prevent tragedies.” Eberle said while the signs are programmed to dis-play speeds only within a pre-desig-nated range, they digitally record the actual speed of indi-vidual vehicles. “When the signs fi rst went up, there were some drivers who used them to see how fast they could go,” said Eber-le. “They were prob-ably disappointed that the sign kicked out at its upper lim-it. But we still know how fast they were going. According to the records, at least a few vehicles were speeding through that neighbourhood at about 90 kilome-ters an hour.” Eberle said the signs are pro-grammed to only indicate speeds be-tween 20 kilometers per hour and 60 kilo-meters per hour.

Martensville MLA Nancy Heppner has been appointed to the provincial Treasury Board. The appointment was one of several announced November 30 by Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall. The appointments also in-cluded changes to cabinet respon-sibilities and cabinet committees, as the government prepared for the new session of the Legislature which began on December 5. Joining Heppner on the Trea-sury Board are Deputy Premier and Finance Minister Ken Krawetz (Chair), Thunder Creek MLA Lyle Stewart (Vice-Chair), CIC Minis-ter Tim McMillan, Social Services Minister June Draude, and Regina Northeast MLA Kevin Doherty. The province’s Treasury Board oversees the province’s General Revenue Fund fi nances and over-sees ministry budgets while the

Crown Investments Corporation (CIC) Board oversees the opera-tions of Saskatchewan’s Crown Corporations. CIC Board members are CIC Minister Tim McMillan (Chair), SaskTel Minister Bill Boyd (Vice-Chair), SaskPower Minis-ter Rob Norris, Regina Douglas Park MLA Russ Marchuk and Saskatoon Sutherland MLA Paul Merriman. In the ministerial offi ces, En-ergy and Resources Minister Bill Boyd takes over from Highways and Infrastructure Minister Jim Reiter as Minister responsible for the Global Transportation Hub (GTH). Reiter will serve as the Vice-Chair of a new cabinet com-mittee to oversee development of the GTH. Cypress Hills MLA Wayne El-hard has been named Provincial

Heppner appointed to provincial Treasury BoardSecretary, taking over that role from Education Minister Donna Harpauer. Elhard will not serve as a member of cabinet in his new role but will also become Legislative Secretary to the Premier and will receive the additional Legislative Secretary allowance of $13,287 per year. Wall said he will not be ap-pointing any other Legislative Sec-retaries at this time. Reiter and Harpauer both re-tain their main cabinet responsi-bilities for Highways and Educa-tion respectively. Wall also created a new GTH Cabinet Committee consisting of GTH Minister Bill Boyd (Chair), Highways and Infrastructure Min-ister Jim Reiter (Vice-Chair), Mu-nicipal Affairs Minister Darryl Hickie and Enterprise Saskatche-wan Minister Jeremy Harrison.

Town’s annual Christmas Party

Since 1981 Frank Guenther has not only been at the helm of a public works department that’s

dealt with incredible population growth over the past seven years but he has also made a difference in the lives of many less fortunate thou-sands of kilometres from home. De-spite it all, the soft-spoken father of four still manages to keep the home fi res burning, the roads clear and, in recent times, helps provide a better life for some in one of the most dan-gerous areas of the world.

Being named Warman’s 2011 Citizen of the Year seemed to catch Guenther a little off-guard, despite the presence of several family mem-bers at the presentation, held at the Brian King Centre on Saturday, De-cember 3. “It’s just great to work in a com-munity where the people treat you well,” the Warman Public Works Manager told the audience as his family, including his 86-year-old mother in the front row, looked on proudly. “There’s been some ups and downs in 30 years but tonight I’d just like to thank the mayor, council, the staff, town administrator and all the administrators, council and staff in the past that have just really respect-ed me – and that goes both ways.” Guenther, who hinted that retire-ment from the Town of Warman may be in the cards in the coming year, has been heavily involved in the for-

mation of Christlike Ministries. The charitable organization primarily seeks to improve the quality of life for residents in Juárez, Mexico who have been riddled with violence as drug cartels battle for superiority in the city of 1.5 million across the border from El Paso, Texas. Wheth-er it is helping prepare a fundraising banquet here at home or making the multi-day trek with trailers loaded with donations of supplies destined for Juárez, Guenther is at the heart of it all. “His involvement with Christ-like Ministries has become a passion that the community of Warman has had the privilege of enjoying through many banquets, compelling speakers and music that speaks to your heart,” Mayor Sheryl Spence recited in her remarks about Guenther. “He and his hard-working team have taken this ministry out into the other parts of the world in hopes of making the lives of underprivileged families eas-ier.” Guenther spoke of growing up on the family farm and not really hav-ing an affi nity for agriculture. Re-calling the day he fi nally learned from his father how to harrow a fi eld in a straight line, Guenther said it was that lesson that instilled in him the motivation to do something and do it well. “I’ve tried to do my best with the Town of Warman,” he explained, not-ing there have been a few days where he maybe didn’t. “But, that has been my goal – to do my job well.” “I would just like to really thank everyone and humbly accept this. I really truly do feel blessed tonight and I want to give all the glory to my heavenly Father.”YOUTH AWARDNATHAN HEIDE As his graduating class’ valedic-torian, a Sunday School teacher, a ju-

nior football player with the 2011 na-tional champion Saskatoon Hilltops and an assistant coach in Warman’s minor and high school football pro-grams, Nathan Heide has always been a person to encourage and sup-port those around him. Despite a busy schedule, Heide continues to be very involved in his church and the sports teams he is associated with.VOLUNTEER AWARDJOEL DENIS Since moving to Warman six years ago, Joel Denis has demon-strated a level of volunteerism not of-ten seen by a father of four children. “Having had the pleasure of working with him, I cannot begin to explain how nice it is to work with someone who works as hard as he does,” Mayor Sheryl Spence re-marked, noting Denis has been heav-ily involved in community sports, ro-deo and fundraising for the Warman Sport & Cultural Village. “He gives so much of himself. His ‘can do’ atti-

tude is absolutely amazing. If there is a project that needs to be done, he is the fi rst to volunteer.”GROUP OF THE YEARWARMAN COMMUNITY BAND In the spring of 2000, school bands in the Sask. Valley School Division were discontinued and for many mu-sicians, it left a sour note. Shortly af-terwards, Barry Redford, the former band director for the Rosthern area and northern part of the Division, presented a proposal to the Warman School Band Parents Association to form the Warman Community Band. A mixture of children and adults of all ages, the band represents the community of Warman at several performances including the Festival of Trees, the Warman Carol Festi-val, Twin Rivers Music Festival, the Warman Rodeo Parade as well as at its semi-annual performances in May and December plus other special re-quest appearances throughout the year.

Solution to parking dilemmaat city’s hospitals badly needed

C O M M E N T A R Y

Hundreds of cars and trucks – primarily belonging to pa-tients and their families – park at Saskatoon’s three hospitals on a daily basis. Often full during peak visiting and outpa-tient service hours, long lines of frustrated motorists can fre-quently be found on the ramps leading in and out of hospital property. A recent editorial in the Canadian Medical Association (CMA) Journal is pressing hospitals to drop parking charges as a way to actually encourage healthier outcomes. Acting Director of the CMA, Dr. Rajendra Kale, points out that parking fees are really just health care user fees in dis-guise. The Saskatoon Health Region (SHR), for one, makes it no secret that revenue from parking at its hospitals helps fund maintenance and patient care to the tune of nearly $7 mil-lion a year. In a recent media report, SHR says that while hospitals in Saskatoon do charge for most parking, dialysis patients and palliative care patients’ family members at St. Paul’s Hospital receive complimentary parking. But, the CMA says parking fees at hospitals actually break Canada Health Act rules. Under the Act, every resi-dent is guaranteed access to care without fi nancial barriers. “This is a barrier to health care,” Kale told the Canadian Press. “This is anxiety and stress and grief that we can get rid of. That’s my main reason for writing this.” Some may argue that paying for parking at hospitals is not a big deal fi nancially. But, even at a modest $3 per hour in Saskatoon, a short visit to a loved one for three or four days in a row equals a few bucks that could be spent on food, clothing or shelter. Also, one has to remember that while parking may be $3 per hour today, it could all of a sudden be-come $4 or $5 per hour with no consultation or recourse by the health region. Another argument some would make against having free parking is that it would be almost impossible to ensure the lots are used exclusively by patients and visitors. There must be a way, though, to put an end to paid park-ing at Canadian hospitals as they have done in Wales and Scotland, the CMA says. Being a patient or visiting a loved one in hospital can be stressful enough. Worrying about the cost of parking shouldn’t be.

Financial requests to RM administratorcompletely without cause In response to Ross Harwood’s Letter to the Editor in the Novem-ber 24, 2011 issue of The Clark’s Crossing Gazette, I would like to address the fi nancial record-keep-ing in the RM of Corman Park No. 344. The Municipalities Act, 2005, mandates the fi nancial affairs with sections 111 and 185. For the fi scal year-end of December 31, Section 185(1) sets June 15 or sooner as a preparation date and Section 185(3)

sets the publication date at Septem-ber 1. Judy Douglas was terminated without cause at the end of 2010 by the former administrator and the fi nancial statements were not ad-dressed. The previous administra-tor failed the requirements of her job description as they pertained to the Municipalities Act, 2005, and was terminated with cause by the RM. Council then re-hired Ms.

Douglas to clear up a huge backlog of mandated RM affairs. Harwood’s requests for fi nan-cial information are not made in good faith and are frivolous, vexa-tious and without cause. This cam-paign of frivolous requests to the administrator by Harwood and others is irresponsible. Please cease and desist, I beg of you.

Beware the siren songs of Mau-rice Vellacott. With legislation to destroy the single desk of the Canadian Wheat Board (CWB) having passed the House of Commons last week, Con-servative MP Maurice Vellacott is singing soothing words that farm-ers will be able to count on the Board for the next fi ve years. But farmers know better than to listen to siren songs. Agricul-ture Minister Gerry Ritz told a committee that he would celebrate the swift removal of the govern-ment backstop: “If they do it in two

years, it'll be great,” he said. After it lost its monopoly, it only took two years before the Aus-tralian Wheat Board was sold off to Agrium. Small family farmers were crushed under the weight of multinationals and are leaving the business in droves. Don’t expect anything less swift and gruesome in Canada. Just ask the Minister.Sincerely,

Beware false promises on CWB

Sometimes even uneventful news events reveal something eventful. Last week's mid-year update for the 2011-12 budget was just such an event – one that told us little we al-ready didn't suspect about our fi nanc-es, but something interesting about the changing face of farming. Finance Minister Ken Krawetz re-vealed a modest $25-million surplus in the general revenue fund budget – the part that includes just the taxes and royalties we collect versus the depart-mental spending. Add in the Crown corporations and we have a slightly bothersome $ 304.3-million defi cit. As we all surely expected, the problem has been spring fl ooding that cost us about $240 million extra in crop insurance, road repair, etc. How-ever, the increased fl ooding costs were partially offset by an extra $106 mil-lion from the federal government that is paying its share of fl ood assistance and jointly shared programs like crop insurance. Moreover, overall government spending only increased $247 million since the March budget plan – a mod-est amount considering the fl ooding bill. And also to no one’s surprise, oil revenue and land-lease sales were down because of lower oil prices and tougher drilling conditions in the wet spring. This, in turn, is producing less corporate tax revenue. However, potash recovering in both prices and sales allowed the province to produce an extra $157 million in revenue. Yes, it's a little worrisome that we seem to be just scraping by at a time of near-record prosperity for the govern-ment. At the very least, it's a sign that we are spending too much and should be putting more aside for those liter-al rainy days. But as mid-year fi nan-cial statements go, Krawetz's news last week was comparatively uneventful. However, that didn't make it com-pletely uninteresting. A couple very

interesting numbers revealed during the technical briefi ng with reporters said a lot about farming. Finance Ministry offi cials ex-plained that their study of Saskatch-ewan employment (one of the many things Finance keeps track of so that it has a more exact idea of how much income and other tax they will be col-lecting) showed that the province has only created 1,600 jobs so far – signifi -cantly down from the 6,000 new jobs that it predicted by fi scal year's end. But while overall job creation was off, fi nance took solace in a 4,000-job increase in "non-agriculture" jobs. This means that much of the job-loss centred on agriculture. Had farm em-ployment been more stable, offi cials speculated, Saskatchewan job creation would clearly have been on track. Of course, offi cials attributed this directly to the wet spring that meant less seeding, less people employed at harvest and, generally, less people em-ployed on the farm. Such numbers are telling on a cou-

ple of accounts First, it does show how vulnerable rural Saskatchewan's economy is to weather – especially when the weather also affects things like oil drilling. Second, it shows how vulnera-ble farming is for some and perhaps how easily some farmers are simply converting to other forms of income. (That increase in non-agricultural jobs may have to be at least partly at-tributed to those who once got their in-come primarily from farming now get-ting it from another kind of work.) Third, it probably tells us some-thing about the changing face of agri-culture. That seemingly smaller oper-ators are more frequently slipping out of agriculture into more lucrative em-ployment, might also say much about why the federal Conservative govern-ment has eagerly pushed through its legislation to end the Canadian Wheat Board’s monopoly. While a majority of farmers (those with permit books) may have voted to keep the CWB, it may be that many of the smaller producers aren't as depen-dent on the land for the bulk of their income. They may be unhappy about the CWB’s potential demise, but these farmers may be phasing out of farm-ing, anyway. It's just one of the many things one can learn from a seemingly unevent-ful news event.

Snowmobiles meant for the great outdoors, not appropriate for urban parks

Extensive damage to re-cently-planted trees and shrubs in several new

parks in Warman has raised concern about how some snow-mobile enthusiasts operate their sleds in town. At the most recent Warman Town Council meet-ing November 28, a report from the municipality’s Direc-tor of Recreation and Commu-nity Services noted thousands of dollars in damage has been caused by careless snowmo-bile operation in a number of linear parks. Because the parks are connected, some snowmobil-ers are tempted to use the in-vitingly-open spaces as high-speed race tracks. But it’s a practice that’s not only costing taxpayers big money for repairs, it could eventually lead to more strin-gent rules regarding snowmo-biles in town. “The concern is that mo-trized vehicles and ATVs driving into and through our parks are causing lots of dam-age, and that equates to lots of dollars going out of tax-payers’ pockets to pay for re-pairs,” noted Warman Mayor Sheryl Spence. “It’s a very val-id concern and it has to be ad-dressed.” Spence, a snowmobile en-thusiast herself, said she and others look forward to the ar-rival of winter when they can “get out and enjoy the sport.” But with that enjoyment comes responsibility, she add-ed. “It is so nice to be able to go out my back alley directly into a great groomed snowmo-bile trail,” she said. “I, for one, would hate to see this taken away because we have some oeprators who do not respect our parks, or who don’t follow the rules of the road and the Town of Warman bylaw.” The current Warman Snowmobile bylaw - which is posted on the Town of Warman website at www.townofwarman.ca - stipulates that snowmobilers must take the most direct route from

their residence into and out of town. It also states that snowmobiles are not allowed to be operated on major traf-fi c arteries including Central Street, Sixth Avenue south of Central, and Third Avenue north of Central (other than to cross those streets). Snowmobiles are prohib-ited from being driven direct-ly into gas stations to fuel up. They are also restricted to speeds of 20 kilometers per hour within town limits, and can only be operated between 8:30 a.m. and 11:00 p.m. in town. The Town of Warman also has a Parks Bylaw, which states it is illegal to “damage or destroy any vegetation or any structure in a park.” Re-cently, signs have been posted in park areas prohibiting op-eration of ATVs, motorcycles and snowmobiles in park lim-its. Wade Eberle, Bylaw En-forcement Offi cer for the Town of Warman, said because snowmobiles are licensed ve-hicles, they should only be op-erated on streets and alleys, using the shortest route into and out of town. “Motorized vehicles do a lot of damage to parks,” he confi rmed. “In the winter, it may be hidden because of the snow cover, but it shows up in the spring when the snow melts and there’s a big mess.” Eberle said the maximum

fi ne for individuals contraven-ing the Parks bylaw is $2000. He said even though the snowfall in November was rel-atively light, it was “still sub-stantial enough” to entice the snowmobilers out. He add-ed that Parks and Recreation personnel who inspected the parks after the snowfall no-ticed vegetation - including several trees - being driv-en over and a lot of tracks through the park made by snowmobiles. Eberle said the RCMP de-tachment in Warman are mon-itoring the area for violators. At the council meeting, there was discussion about the possibility of amending the Snowmobile bylaw to further restrict snowmobiles in town. Councilors felt that it was im-portant to educate snowmobile operators fi rst. Tightening the bylaw would only happen if vi-olations continued to be a ma-jor problem. Spence said while many towns and villages in rural Saskatchewan allow snow-mobiles unrestricted move-ment within their boundaries, Warman’s situation is differ-ent. “As we grow, so do the number of families who are enjoying snowmobiling,” she said. “It’s a fun winter pas-time. Let’s not lose this priv-ilege because of lack of care and concern for our communi-ty and park space.”

With each new snow-fl ake that falls, snowmobil-ers across Saskatchewan are thinking about their next ride out. But before heading out on the trails, there are things that every snowmobiler should do to prepare. Saskatchewan winters bring some potentially haz-ardous and risky situations for snowmobilers. With freez-ing and thawing, thin ice is a major risk for snowmobilers early on. Riders should be particu-larly aware of drainage ditch-es that have been created by farmers this past spring as a way to control the excess wa-ter caused by the rain. What may have once been famil-iar terrain is now unfamil-iar and potentially danger-ous. Snowmobilers also need to be aware of freshly fallen snow which can cause ditch-es, rocks, branches, drainage pipes and depressions to be covered.

To prevent needless acci-dents from happening, Peter Huebner, Chief Snowmobile Instructor with the Saskatch-ewan Safety Council, recom-mends all riders prepare be-fore they head out to ride by doing their research and be-coming familar with the ter-rain. “Most accidents that hap-pen can be prevented by pre-paring ahead of time and rid-ing with care and attention,” says Huebner. There are some basic tips that you should follow in or-der to have a safe and enjoy-able snowmobile season:* Never ride alone. In case of an emergency it is essential to have someone there for help. * Wear proper snowmobile gear, including a helmet. * Take extra precautions when riding in unfamiliar terrain. * Don’t drink and ride. Alco-hol is the cause of almost 70 percent of all snowmobile in-cidents.

Get ready to ride this winter* Use groomed snowmobile trails to prevent accidents from happening. There are over 10,000 kilometers of groomed trails in Saskatch-ewan. * Be careful when crossing roads, highways and rail-way tracks. Always come to a complete stop before proceed-ing. * The legal speed limit for snowmobiles is 80 km/hour (50 miles/hour). Remember that all snow-mobile operators born on or after January 1, 1989, are required to take the Snowmo-bile Safety Course in order to operate a snowmobile on pub-lic land. Participants must be at least 12 years old to regis-ter for a course. The Saskatchewan Safe-ty Council offers Snowmo-bile Safety Courses around the province from November through March.

TOWN OF LANGHAM

CORRECTIONPlease be advised that

January 16, 2012, is the date for the Public Hearing

regarding the proposed Zoning Bylaw and Offi cial Community plan for the

Town of Langham.An advertisement outlining the bylaw and explaining the proposed Offi cial Communi-ty plan which appeared in last week’s issue of the Gazette contained an incorrect date.

Bethany College is blessed to have quality per-sonnel. They diligent-

ly seek to actively use their gifts to bless those they come in contact with. Rob Neufeld and Paul Woodburn have been a valued part of this team for many years and we wish them God’s richest blessings as they move out of their current roles at the College. Rob Neufeld has served at Bethany College since 2001. He served in the Director of Fi-nance / Busi-ness Man-ager role for seven years. He has al-ways been in-volved in the donor rela-tions area of college min-istry and was appointed to the Director of Donor Re-lations role in 2008. Pres-ident Howie Wall shares how Neufeld’s work impacted the col-lege, “In moving the col-lege forward in the donor relations area, he has cre-ated a ministry that cares for and shares with do-nors from coast to coast in Canada and even through-out the world. His great-est legacy is his pastor’s heart. His care for others is evident in all the rela-tionships he has built with friends and alumni of the college.” Neufeld is remembered by students at Bethany as being the man behind the Scholarship Podium. He has had the great plea-sure of leading the Awards Committee in designat-ing the many Scholarships and Bursaries that our generous supporters have do-nated toward student aid. He is instrumental in providing knowledge and advice to sup-porters in the initial set-up of bursaries. The day he brings the Student recipient and the donor family together is one of great joy and Neufeld’s face lights up in response to each award as it is handed out. Neufeld is completing this college year in 2012 and will be missed for his jovial spir-it and pastoral care toward all within the Bethany Communi-ty. Rob and his wife Mardell have served the College in many ways over the last 11 years - thank you!

(Pictured Left) The 2011-12 Point of Impact Minis-try Team - Director Paul Woodburn seated in front holding his guitar. Wood-burn has placed an em-phasis on the transforma-tive power of Scripture. Each year the team pre-pares a passage of scrip-ture and Paul weaves it into a series of songs de-signed to minister to all ages. This year’s passage is the epistle of James. Vis-it the bethany.sk.ca web-site and join us in a wor-ship service near you.

Time of staff transition at Bethany Paul Woodburn has served the College from 2005-2012, a total of seven college-years. He has served as our Minis-try Arts Director, instructor in worship, music, technol-ogy and the director of Point of Impact; the College’s musi-cal deputation (music minis-try) team. “In those years of service, Paul has inspired oth-ers to join him in offering our very best to the LORD... in all that we do and through all of our lives,” recounts Rick Mc-Corkindale, Academic Dean. When asked to share a favourite Bethany College

memory, Woodburn was hard pressed to narrow it down to one and re-plied, “Basically getting up every day to the real-ization that I really en-joy what I do. I enjoy the teaching, the prep, the discussions, colleagues and students... every-thing. Obviously, some of my best memories in-volve Point of Impact. Each team was wonder-fully unique. Every year brought joys and frustra-

tions and surprises and won-derfully, genuine, life-trans-forming ministry. Nothing compares to being used by God to minister powerfully to others.” In true Woodburn posi-tive but compelling style, He answered the following ques-tion: What is the one thing you hope to have left on the hearts of the community of believ-ers at Bethany College? “1. It’s bigger than you... 2. Stop try-ing so hard... He already loves you. 3. Try harder ...there are so many others that still do not know His love.” Paul is also completing

this College year in 2012 and then together with his wife, Anna, and their two children, are planning to move out of province. “Right now the only concrete part of the plan is to return to Ontario and recon-nect with family. The next sev-eral months will be spent dis-cerning as a family and with others, the ministry opportu-nities that God may be call-ing us to pursue.” Thank you Paul and Anna for your ser-vice to Bethany. Help us support each of these families in prayer as they seek God’s guidance for the next chapter in their lives.

Delisle Rebels fi nish off championship season in style with awards ceremony

November 30. Rebels head coach Ken Byers said choosing the award-winners was probably the toughest task the coach-ing staff had all season. “For every award we could have easily had fi ve or six players who deserved to win,” Byers told the crowd. “It’s always a balancing act to ensure ev-eryone is recognized for their contribution.” Byers said the team’s suc-cess was based on its eth-ic of hard work. “We weren’t the biggest team out there,” said Byers. “We have a small school in a small town, but we showed that if you work hard you can beat the odds.” Byers said an inspiration-al experience for the team ear-ly in the season was a visit to Mosaic Stadium, where the players were able to meet Sas-katchewan Roughriders quar-terback Darian Durant. “Darian admitted he wasn’t the biggest or the most successful football player in high school,” said Byers. “But he’s now playing professional football while many of those other players aren’t.

mination and hard work.” Logan Frohaug earned the award for Most Valuable Player. Byers said Frohaug, who made a difference in ev-ery game on special teams, of-fense and defense, was also the player who “made everyone around him better” as well. The MVP award was named after the late Garry Sharp, a commumity mem-ber and a former coach who passed away in 2002. Byers said Sharp played a big part in generating interest in the football program at Delisle Composite School. The members of the foot-ball team surprised the coach-es by awarding framed pho-tos of the championship team, signed by the players, to the entire coaching staff. Jaden Wood-Sparrow, the quarterback of the Rebels, won the award for Most Dedi-cated Player. Two players, Des Vessey and Brayden Knackstedt,

Delisle Chiefs put together back-to-back wins, now in second spot

After scoring three quick goals in the fi rst two minutes, the

Delisle Chiefs looked like they were headed for a blow-out over the West Central Rage. Not so fast. A quick time-out, cou-pled with a goaltender change, and the visiting Rage were suddenly a dif-ferent team. They elevat-ed their game and gave the hometown Chiefs a run for their money in Prairie Ju-nior Hockey League (PJHL) action in Delisle last Sun-day. By the end of the fi rst period, the Chiefs were still ahead, but just barely. Turnovers and costly penal-ties almost torpedoed what should have been an easy win against a Rage team that has struggled so far this season. Delisle went into the

fi rst intermission clinging to a 5-4 lead after having been outshot 15-12. The Chiefs’ marksmen included Eric Ditto, Carter Yuzdepski, Mitch McNally, Justin Kerr and Russ Sch-neider. The Rage responded with tallies from Brenden Grise, Brock Castle, Matt Mitchell and Brett Profi t. The Chiefs made a goal-tending change to open the second frame, as Joel Ad-ams was pulled in favour of their regular starter, Cam Irwin. It paid off, as Irwin slammed the door shut on the visitors over the follow-ing forty minutes. “It wasn’t really our game plan to make it quite so close” conceded Chiefs coach Dave Norris. “We started off on fi re and moved the puck well, and I think we caught them sleeping. But then they realized the game had started, and we took some bad penalties and they got three power play goals.” The Chiefs fi nally found the scoring touch again in the fi nal minutes of the third period, when Dylan Kochan added an insurance marker to make it 6-4. Chiefs Cap-

tain Russ Schneider of Mar-tensville scored his second of the night to cap things off with a little under three minutes left in regulation time. The win gave the Chiefs a solid hold on second place in the North Division of the PJHL, three points up on the third-place Tri-Town Thun-der, and four points ahead of the Saskatoon Quakers and Saskatoon Westleys. The Chiefs had ham-mered the Westleys 12-4 the night before in Delisle to further help their cause. Pri-or to that game there was a four-way tie for second spot in the league’s North Divi-sion. Norris said now that the fi nal cuts have been made to the Chiefs’ roster, the play-ers in the dressing room are “committed to winning” and aren’t taking any teams lightly from here on in. “Our team really wants to get on a roll,” he said. “The guys realize they have to play a full sixty minutes in this league in order to win.” The Chiefs leave the friendly confi nes of the Delisle Centennial Arena for a two-game road trip this coming weekend. “We play Regina and Pilot Butte, and they’re two of the top teams,” noted Norris. The Delisle squad will be

in Saskatoon December 22. The Chiefs’ next home game isn’t until January 7 when they host the fi rst-place Saskatoon Royals. “The Royals have had a great run lately,” noted

Norris. “Their last loss was against us, and it’s our plan to give them their next loss, too. We have the team that can beat them, and our guys will be jacked up for that game.”

Bethany College

Since Bethany’s Annu-al Alumni Volleyball Tournament in mid-Sep-

tember, the Bethany Eagles Volleyball teams have been honing their skills and blend-ing their talents. Through pre-season matches and league play, both the men’s and women’s teams estab-lished themselves as serious contenders for the PAC Cham-pionship title. At the conclu-sion of league play, the wom-en’s team found themselves in third place in the standings, helped by signifi cant wins in their last two matches, end-ing the season with a 5 win - 5 loss record. The men’s team earned second place in their contentious league, winning their fi nal six matches in con-vincing style to tally a 7 win

Women’s squad, due to their third place fi nish in league play, played in a quarter fi nal match on Friday night. Their decisive win propelled them into the semi-fi nal on Satur-day morning, where they fell to the very strong Kelsey Ama-ruk team. This meant a tough road to the Bronze Medal match, but the Eagles soared hard and ended up playing the Millar Edge for this important prize. In a tight match, our Eagles took command of the match, and emerged with the Bronze Medal in the Provin-cial tournament, beating the Millar Edge 3 games to 1. The Eagles Men’s team, aided by their 2nd place league fi n-ish, advanced to the semi-fi -nals on Saturday to play the Palliser Panthers. In a very close match, the Bethany Ea-gles rose to the top, defeat-ing the Panthers 3 sets to 2. This win put the men into the Championship fi nal against the top team in the league - the Great Plains Sundogs. The an-ticipation was tangible as the match began, and the Eagles lost the fi rst set, but battled back to defeat the Sundogs in the second set. The action was fast and furious, with exciting rallies and big hits. In the end, it was a close shave for the Eagles, but to no avail as the Great Plains team regained

The lowest of lows strikesBlades to start December

When it comes to con-sistency of performance, the “catch-phrase” by which sports teams live by is, “main-taining an even keel.” In other words, don’t get too high with the highs or fall too low when times are low! The Saskatoon Blades are experiencing their second “low” of the 2011-2012 season and this one is down in the dregs going into a new week. The Bridge City Bunch have lost fi ve of their last six games and have been out-scored 31-10 in that stretch. The Blades are hopeful they hit rock bottom and all they can do is go up with their per-formance following an 8-3 set-back Sunday in Edmonton. “There’s no use beating a dead horse here, things can’t get much worse than what they are for us right now,” said Saskatoon assistant coach Dave Struch following the Sunday loss which saw the Oil Kings score fi ve power play goals…three of them during a fi ve-minute power play after centre Jake Trask was eject-ed for a check to the head of Edmonton defenceman Griffi n Reinhart with just under fi ve minutes remaining in the sec-ond period. “They exposed us.”The 19-11-1 Blades have not played since Sunday and won’t return to action until Satur-day, when they start a run of four games at Credit Union Centre leading into the Christ-mas Break, when they host the Regina Pats. As of this writ-ing, Trask had not yet faced supplemental discipline from the WHL while leading scorer Josh Nicholls and centre Brent Benson were sidelined by inju-ry going into the week.Ending the “low” and start-ing a new “high” might not be as quick to happen as many Blades’ fans would like!

posted three goals and an as-sist, including the overtime winner back on Friday in a 2-1 triumph in Medicine Hat. Besides the losses, the “bit-ter” part was not being able to play in Sunday’s 8-3 set-back in Edmonton because of a right knee hurt…the extent of the damage and accompa-nying time on the sidelines had yet to be determined at the time this was written. The injury occurred late in Satur-day’s 6-3 loss in Lethbridge. The 19-year-old right winger leads the Bridge City Bunch with 20 goals and 35 points in 30 games.*****BLADES PLAYER OF THE MONTH – Up until the fi nal three games of the month, this was a slam-dunk choice…and it still was as Andrey Ma-karov started 13 of the Bridge City Bunch’s 14 games in goal. The 18-year-old posted an 8-5 record with a 2.89 goals against-average and a .920 save percentage. The native of Kazan, Russia has been one of the three stars in 15 of the 26 games he has started and the early favourite to be the team’s M-V-P!

cal education - we aren’t just experiential and we’re not just academic. We combine the best of both and provide a biblical learning community where the practical experiences of living and working together combine with fi rst rate classroom education.” This year, Academic Achievement Awards were presented sixteen students with a cumulative GPA of 3.4 or higher: second-year ($200), third-year ($250), and fourth-year ($250). Paul Morgun, Associate Admissions Di-rector, recognized fi rst-year students by awarding the New Student - Entrance Schol-arships for 2011. These scholarships (total-ing $58,000 over 4 years of study) are made available to new applicants and have fi ve categories: Camp Ministry, Christian Life, Christian Leadership, Academic and Minis-try Arts. On behalf of several families and support-ing agencies, Rob Neufeld and Cliff Brandes, who work in Bethany’s Donor Relations Of-fi ce, were given the pleasure of presenting over $17,000 in scholarship and bursary mon-ey to twenty fi ve students. Rob reminded the students of the honour and privilege it is for Bethany College to have so many supporters, many of whom are alumni of the College. We not only benefi t from their generosity to in-dividual students in these Scholarships, but also through their general support of the col-lege subsidizing the costs to keep our enroll-ment fees affordable. Thank you to all our supporters for your generosity!

BETHANY AWARDSContinued from Page 9 Winter has hit

Saskatchewan in full force and mo-torists will now be sharing the provin-cial highways with 300 snow plows from the Ministry of Highways and Infra-structure as they re-move snow and treat ice on the 26,000 km network. Motorists are re-minded to stay back and stay safe, giving the snow plow room to work as highways are cleared using the most effective methods for varying weather conditions. “Last winter we received a substan-tial amount of snow, and our plows were out in full force working hard to keep highways safe,” Highways and Infra-structure Minister Jim Reiter said. Snow plows can create a mini bliz-zard or whiteout condition in their

wake, often obscur-ing the plow from sight despite the checkerboard truck boxes and fl ashing lights meant to keep them visible. Motor-ists who approach a sudden whiteout should be aware it is likely a snow plow working up ahead, and to slow down, stay back and stay safe. The plows pull over every 10 kilo-metres or so to allow vehicles to pass. Legislation passed in the spring of 2009 also requires drivers to slow to 60 km when passing a snow plow, with warning lights fl ash-ing, weither in oper-ation or stopped on the side of the road. There are around 300 snow plow trucks working in 85 maintenance sections throughout the province, on the road before, during and after storms.

Weekly HoroscopesCAPRICORNThe holiday season is in full swing, and your to-do list is growing. Take steps to be more efficient and reduce the load wherever possible, Capricorn.

AQUARIUSRequests for time and money increase. Pick the best and leave the rest. You’re only human, Aquarius. An el-derly friend makes a speedy recovery.

PISCESTime to switch gears, Pisces. You finished what you signed up for, and even though much remains to be done, it’s time you bowed out. A gift has an added sur-prise.

ARIESA friend wrestles with a personal demon. Be there for them throughout the long recovery process. A cowork-er pitches a fit. Ignore it, Aries.

TAURUSParty invites arrive by the handful. You can’t possibly at-tend them all, Taurus, and no one expects you to. The plans for holiday travel begin to unfold.

GEMINIAn announcement catches you off guard. Hide your sur-prise, Gemini, and offer up your congratulations. You can fuss about it later. Destiny calls.

CANCERWhere will you be spending the holidays, Cancer? Let the ruckus begin. A financial review turns up rosy. Way to go! A relative returns a favor.

LEOTirades at home turn into a full-blown battle for control. Escape the madness with a road trip to someplace spe-cial, Leo. A repair is completed.

VIRGOYou’re on the hunt for the perfect gift. Start in places you wouldn’t look otherwise, Virgo. A film inspires you to lend an organization a hand.

LIBRAA project ends with a flourish. Take a few days off to un-wind and catch up on stuff at home, Libra. Time to get cracking on the decorating.

SCORPIOSolitude is a welcome friend at this hectic time of year. Enjoy it, Scorpio, and do something fun for yourself. A book puts a new spin on an old topic.

SAGITTARIUSTwinkling lights dredge up a feud long forgotten. It’s not too late to make amends, Sagittarius. Cooler weath-er makes for fun weekend activities.

team and working in Police Cells” states Troy Davies MD Ambulance spokesperson. MD Ambulance has a Communication Centre that employs 22 dispatchers. The Communication Centre is cur-rently going through its 4th Accreditation through Medi-cal Priority. The Centre cur-rently dispatches for 39 Am-bulance Services, 25 Fire Departments, Corman Park Police and Saskatchewan Air Ambulance. The Centre aver-ages 500 calls per day.

Mark January 21, 2012 on your calendar. That’s the date set for SaskEnergy’s Hockey Day in Saskatch-ewan. The event marks the fi fth annual province-wide celebra-tion of Canada’s favourite winter sport, with the City of Melville chosen as the host community. SaskEnergy Hockey Day in Saskatchewan is dedicated to cel-ebrating and promoting the game of hockey throughout the prov-ince while also serving to strengthen community rink spirit. The Saskatchewan Hockey Association (SHA) and SaskEn-ergy encourage all minor hockey associations to oragnize an event in their own community the weekend of January 20-22, for children and adults of all ages who share a passion for the game. SaskEnergy Hockey Day in Saskatchewan provides associa-tions a platform to fundraise and keep rinks thriving in Sas-katchewan communities by making the local arena the main hub of activity for the weekend and generating local support.
