T
his past fall Minnedosa Town Council engaged the
services of J. Harper and Associates to conduct a fea-
sibility study on the towns proposed MREC facility.
J. Harper and Associates prepared the feasibility re-
port and presented the fndings to Town Council and the
MREC committee prior to Christmas.
Much to the disappointment of the council and oth-
ers who have dedicated time and energy into perusing a
new recreation centre the report indicated a number of
issues with the Towns business plan and proposed de-
sign.
J. Harpers fndings indicate that while it is evident
the Minnedosa needs to update or replace our current
facility, proceeding with a two sheet complex is not fea-
sible. It is disappointing news for sure. We have had a lot
of people working on this, trying to do a good thing for
Minnedosa, but over the past fve years the landscape
around us has changed quite a bit and that has impacted
a number of factors, commented Minnedosa Mayor, Ray
Orr.
Jack Harper, who is an expert in the feld of recre-
ational facility development, prepared the report with the
best judgment in light of the information available at the
time of preparation.
Te objective of the feasibility report is to acquire a
third party review of the concept, building program and
business plan. Te study assesses the long-term feasibil-
ity, viability and sustainability and also provides a recom-
mended path forward in terms of implementing, post-
poning, staging or abandoning the project.
J. Harper and Associates approached the study by
creating fve questions that test the feasibility of the proj-
ect. Completion of the report showed four of fve ques-
tions receiving negative responses, further indicating
that, in its present form the proposed event centre is
not viable, feasible, or sustainable over the long-term.
Te consultants cannot support the project in its current
form, nor do they believe in abandoning the project.
1 - Local and regional market what is the market
and is it supported by the recommended components
and set of spaces?
Based on the current economic climate in the re-
gion, level of demand, supply of facilities and competi-
tion in the marketplacethere is no evidence that the
market for a MREC will support the components and set
of spaces for the proposed facility, stated the feasibility
report.

Finding a New
Path Forward
MREC Feasibility Study
By JENNIFER PAIGE
A
fter years of assess-
ment and consider-
ation, Rolling River School
Division has completed
the purchase of a new
building for its administra-
tive of ce.
Efective January 1st,
2014, RRSD is the new
owner of the building
located at 36 Armitage
Ave., known to most as
the Minnedosa Provincial
Building.
Te 14,300 square foot
building was previously
owned by a private compa-
ny which held lease agree-
ments with the Provincial
Government. As part of
the purchase agreement,
the school division will be
honoring the current lease
arrangements which are in
efect until December 31st,
2015.
We are excited about
this development and
the positive things it will
mean for the division. Te
building is in a great loca-
tion and it will allow us the
space to do everything we
need. Te previous owner
had lease agreements in
place, so we will not be
moving in until January
1, 2016, but in the mean-
time the building will be a
source of revenue for us,
explained Reg Klassen, su-
perintendent of RRSD.
Te decision to pur-
chase the building has
been a multi-year process
beginning in 2006. Since
that time a number of
studies have been under-
taken to assess the options
that would best address
the issues the division was
facing at its current loca-
tion.
Concerns with the
current administrative
building include an overall
lack of of ce space and in-
adequate space conditions
for some of the staf, spe-
cifcally lacking space for
the Information Technol-
ogy and Student Services
departments, structural
and mechanical issues due
to the age of the building,
need for repair and up-
grades, as well as lack of
space for the transporta-
tion bus storage and parts.
It has taken eight
years to make this deci-
sion and by the time we
get into the building it will
have been ten years since
the school division began
to look at this. It has been a
very careful and somewhat
tedious process to make
sure that we are making
the very best decisions that
we can with our fnances,
continued Klassen.
In 2006, the division
hired LM Architectural
Group to assess and create
a feasibility study on the
current division of ce. Te
study was presented to the
school division board of
directors in 2007, at which
time the Board Division
Of ce Space Review Ad
Hoc Committee was cre-
ated to coordinate the as-
sessment of options and
develop a plan.
Te committee along
with the assistance of
LM Architectural Group,
worked to assess all of the
divisions viable options.
Which included, renovat-
ing the current building
and building new main-
tenance shop; building,
purchasing or leasing
a new space for the ad-
ministration of ce and
moving the maintenance
shop to the current of ce
location; building a new
transportation garage and
maintenance shop and
renovating the current
of ce or building a new
of ce, garage and shop.
We had looked at the
provincial building as an
option a number of years
ago and after all this time
it is still the best option for
us, stated Klassen.

Continued from Page 1

When we considered a new building, we looked
at building something that was 5,000-6,000 sq. feet,
but we had concerns that would still not aford us
the space required to have everything we need in the
division of ce, especially in the years to come, ex-
plained Klassen. Tis building gives us 7,000 square
feet on the main foor and also costs signifcantly less
than building new.
RRSD began investigating the purchase of the
Minnedosa Provincial Building in 2011 at which
point a complete structural, electrical and mechani-
cal system inspection was undertaken.
Funding for the purchase comes through a capi-
tal reserve fund that was established for the construc-
tion or purchase of a new division administration
structure a number of years ago. Tere will be no ad-
ditional levy on taxpayers to subsidize this purchase.
In January 2016, RRSD will spend some time ren-
ovating the main foor of the building to better suit
its purposes and will move to the new location once
renovations are complete.
Te division has plans to continue to lease the
second foor space and utilize the revenue to fund fu-
ture building renovations and upgrades.
In January 2016, we will likely be looking to re-
vamp the main foor to suit our purposes and con-
tinue to lease the second foor. We are hoping that the
province would still like to lease the second foor, but
that will take care of itself over time, added Klassen.
Board Division Of ce Space Review Ad Hoc
Committee plans to continue to meet and review
options and develop plans to address issues related
to the maintenance shop and transportation garage
which will remain at its current location when the ad-
ministrative of ce relocates.
Tere are no defnite plans for the current build-
ing once we move. We still have a bus garage here and
it will continue to serve as that once we have moved
the administrative of ces. Tere are a number of pos-
sibilities for us. We may look to utilize it for one of our
schools, possibly lease it or if we eventually fnd an-
other location for our bus garage then we may con-
sider selling the building eventually. At this point we
dont have any plans.
For now the school division is excited about this
long-time development and looks forward to 2016
and the many possibilities this new space will bring.
Seminar rooms, Teachers Learning Centre,
meeting spaces, work areas, these are all spaces that
we look forward to having, added Klassen.

T
wo local brothers and
business partners have
experienced quite a bit of
business success over the
years and are now looking
to continue to prosper with
the help of a few million-
aires and a National televi-
sion show.
Lawrence and Chris
Warwaruk were raised on
a farm outside of Erickson,
Manitoba with fve other
brothers and a sister. Te
two brothers grew and
eventually left for the big
city in hopes of establish-
ing a successful business
to help fund the family
farm.
In 1999, the brothers
moved to Winnipeg and
opened a restaurant along
Osborne Street in South
Winnipeg called LuxSole.
LuxSole became well-
known in the community
and has a reputation of
sourcing all its products
locally. After ten years of
running the downtown
restaurant the brothers
jumped into the bar/beer
business opening Luxa-
lane Gastropub in 2009.
Te pub became
known for ofering over
150 beers from around
the world. Trough this
business the Warwaruk
brothers discovered a local
market for diverse beer op-
tions.
Te Warwaruks saw
a lack of draft beer being
produced in Manitoba and
decided to combine their
farming background and
service industry savvy to
create North Americas frst
estate brewery, Farmery
Estate Brewery.
Te point of the
Farmery is to grow the
ingredients on our farm
that go into our beer. We
are taking it back to the
grassroots, allowing you
to know where your beer
comes from, explained
Chris Warwaruk.
Farmery Estate Brew-
erys fagship beer is the
Farmery Premium Lager
and has been picked up
by a number of Manitoba
businesses, pubs, bars and
Manitoba Liquor Control
Commissions throughout
the province.
Our vision was to
grow the barley and hops
on our farm, harvest it
and brew the beer all at
one site. We have received
great support from all
across Manitoba, added
Warwaruk.
On January 8th, the
Warwaruk brothers made
an appearance on CBC
televisions Dragons Den,
where aspiring entrepre-
neurs pitch their business
concepts and products to a
panel of Canadian business
moguls.
Te brothers were
hoping to seal a deal with
one of fve millionaire ven-
ture capitalist. Farmery Es-
tate Brewery is looking for
capital investment to assist
in the development of the
brand and fund the creation
of a brewery that will allow
interested parties to tour the
farm and brewery facility.
Farmery Estate Brew-
ery is looking to get into
the agri-tourism market
converting farmland East
of Neepawanear Arden
Ridge, right along Highway
#16 into a traditional post
and beam barn to house
brewery equipment, mer-
chandise and a small sam-
pling bar that they hope will
attract visitors.
Tis will be the second
time the Warwaruks have
come face-to-face with the
Dragons. About eight years
ago the Warwaruks ap-
peared on Dragons Den,
pitching a smart card con-
cept that was quickly shot
down. On their second ap-
pearance the brothers are
hoping for a diferent out-
come.
Tis time around
wasnt as nerve-wrecking
as the frst time, said Chris.
Tis time we already had a
track record of success, and
we were confdent about
our product. We fnished
our frst year in the mar-
ketplace on our own merit
before going. We went in
with a solid foundation that
people can get behind.

2 - Management and
business plan is the
management/busi ness
plan viable and does it
represent the most efec-
tive option for operational
managing?
Te projected oper-
ating budget for the facil-
ity underestimates the true
cost of operation and the
revenues are overly opti-
mistic given the market
conditions in the region.
Te business plan is not
viable and does not rep-
resent the most efective
option for managed a new
MREC.
3 - Feasibility and
construction costscan
the components and spac-
es be built for the estimat-
ed capital cost?
At least three poten-
tial cost factors and vari-
able need to be carefully
managed and controlled
through rigorous over-
sight, however, it may be
possible that the proposed
can be built for the project-
ed $25,641,362.00
4 - Fundraising ca-
pacitycan the capital be
raised to pay for the cen-
tres construction?
A combination of
factors suggests that the
minimum $25 million
capital funds are unlikely
to be raised due to preced-
ing federal and provincial
funding to comparable
projects, lack of federal
designated to recreation
infrastructure program,
municipal limit of avail-
able capital resources and
capacity within the com-
munity for signifcant ad-
ditional fundraising.
5 - Financial Viabili-
tycan the centre operate
for the cost outlined in the
business plan? Will it gen-
erate the revenues that are
estimated? Will it achieve a
surplus?
Te projected square
footage costs of operating
in the MREC business plan
are half of even the most
modest operation and re-
fect the relative inadequa-
cy of the proposed operat-
ing budget. Consultants
believe that instead of the
event centre operating at
a surplus as predicted in
the MREC business plan
the facility will operate at
a substantial defcit requir-
ing ongoing tax support.
In summary, the re-
port points to a few key
aspects that interfere with
the feasibility of the proj-
ect:
Te realistic cost to
build the complex is go-
ing to be greater than an-
ticipated at approximately,
$25 million.
Te f ndings of the
report indicate the likeli-
hood of government fund-
ing to the level originally
anticipated is severely
compromised. Tis along
with the increased capital
cost will result in a funding
shortfall which appears to
be beyond what the com-
munity is capable of rais-
ing.
Since the original con-
ception of the project the
marketplace has changed.
Every year the numbers in
local hockey leagues have
dropped and recreation
complexes in nearby cen-
tres have been built, creat-
ing a down turn in usage
and an increase in compe-
tition. Te report indicates
that demand of the second
sheet of ice would be spo-
radic at best.
Due to the changing
recreational landscape
and a few other factors the
report notes that it is not
reasonable to assume that
enough revenue would
be generated to cover op-
eration costs. A shortfall
would likely occur which
would have to be covered
with tax dollars.
While the report high-
lights a number of issues
surrounding the current
plan it was also noted that
perusing a recreational fa-
cility in Minnedosa is cer-
tainly a worthwhile cause.
Te consultants be-
lieve there is suf cient need
and support for improved
recreation facilities and ser-
vice in the community to
warrant the development of
a revised plan and renewed
development strategy, stat-
ed J. Harper.
Te report notes that
the concept of postponing
the project would only re-
sult in increased costs and
less probability that the
project would be complet-
ed. It is recommended that
the project be scaled back
to a single sheet of ice and
minimize the building size
and other proposed fea-
tures.
We have always said
that we will build the best
we can with what we have.
A lot of people have put in
time and money towards
this project. It behooves us
now to take some time and
determine the best way to
move this project forward.
To determine as best we
can, what it is that will be
feasible, sustainable and
will suit the needs of this
community for the next 50
to 60 years and do what is
necessary to get this built,
said Orr.
Council has a general
planning session scheduled
for later this week when
they will divulge further into
the reports recommenda-
tions and begin to plan a
new path forward.
We certainly wont be
rushing this. Te plan is to
sit back and carefully and
cautiously determine what
the logical steps forward will
be. We are looking to engage
Harper when preparing the
new project plan and will
continue to work with the
building committee we
have established, contin-
ued Orr.
Town Council will also
be looking at contacting
stakeholders who have in-
vested funds into the proj-
ect to inform them that the
plans will be altered and
also give them an opportu-
nity to retract their dona-
tions.
Tis is something that
council will certainly have
to discuss, but I dont really
see another option but to
ofer to give the money back
as we cannot uphold our
original end of the agree-
ment. I hope that people
will understand and contin-
ue to support this project as
it will still be of great beneft
to our town, said Orr.
Te full feasibility re-
port from J. Harper and As-
sociates is available to the
public in hard copy at the
Town Of ce or on the Dis-
cover Minnedosa website.

year, seeing a number of
individuals from the com-
munity come out to enjoy
a homemade Christmas
meal along with some en-
tertaining festivities.
We had a great turn-

had about 50 guests stop
in as well there were about
15 meals taken out to
those who were not able
to make it down to the
center, said Ray Baloun,
chair of the Christmas Day
Dinner Committee.
The free-of-charge
Christmas celebration
brought in $1000.00 in
donations that the com-

The Christmas Day Dinner Commitee
G
reetings friends of
the column. Merry
Christmas and Happy
New Year! Perhaps youre
already sick of hearing
Happy New Year, but I had
to get it in while I had the
chance.
I didnt even know Te
Tribune was shut down for
the holidays, I just didnt
submit an article last week.
Low and behold I came
back to work on Monday
and had an email from
Darryl telling me that they
were back in business for
the New Year. Good thing I
didnt submit one.
Anyways, I digress.
Lets talk turkey...and not
the Christmas kind. Lets
talk about police stuf.
Local of cers kept
busy through the holidays
and new year with 64 calls
for service.
Tere have been some
items going missing from
vehicles around town. As
always, I will remind you
to lock your vehicles. Yes,
we live in a small town, but
dont take your chances.
And dont leave wallets
and purses in vehicles.
Please? Tank you.
Fraud calls are on the
rise as well. Keep an eye
out for shifty phone calls
asking for personal infor-
mation. Dont worry about
being rude... just hang up.
Tey are used to it. Same
goes for email. If its not
someone you know, then
dont be sending them
personal information.
An impaired driver
was picked up on Highway
#10 coming home from
Brandon. Te female was
released to a sober driver
and will be going to court
to deal with her charges.
Welcome to 2014, and
here is what you really
came for. Wicked speeds
and expensive tickets. Lets
check it out. An 18-year-
old from Austin, MB de-
cided he was in a hurry one
day. Maybe he is always in
a hurry... but this time he
got stopped by the police.
He was travelling 130km/
hr, and received a $442.75
ticket for his eforts. Per-
haps he wont be in such
a hurry next time. I believe
MPI will have something
to say about his license
as well in the upcoming
months. Driving is a privi-
lege, not a right. Lets re-
member that as we begin
2014. And there you have
it, your beloved speeder
of the week... as long as its
not you of course.
Cheers and all the best
in 2014. See you next time
in the Cops Corner.
Dont take chances...lock your vehicle

ecently the Minnedosa Rotary Club and its
members, along with our partnership with the
CHANGE Humanitarian group from MCI donated
funds to Shelterbox Canada to aid those individu-
als afected by the Philippine Typhoon and subse-
quent disaster relief eforts. You might ask what is
a Shelterbox?
A shelterbox is just that a box of relief supplies
that is given free of charge to those afected by a di-
saster and are without their home and any of the
supplies that you would normally have at your dis-
posal. In addition to a 10 man tent there are sleep-
ing bags, cooking pots, utensils, an axe, shovel, saw,
cooking stove, water purifcation tablets, sanitation
supplies and more. It is survival in a box, delivered
to the most needy and deemed sturdy enough to al-
low a family to endure life for up to six months if
need be. Many disaster sites have seen displaced
people live in these tents with these resources for
well beyond that timeframe.
In November at our Rotary Revue evening
which celebrated the characteristics of being Ca-
nadian shared through songs that the Strathclair
Choral Singers performed for us we talked about
Shelterbox and how we as a community can make a
diference to others. Spontaneous donations came
forward that evening and during the next few weeks
we collected funds from others and so in the end our
Minnedosa Rotary Club and community donated
in excess of $7,000.00 to Shelterbox Canada which
in turn was then matched by the Government of
Canada through their pledge to this disaster and so
now armed with $14,000 in funds Shelterbox pro-
vided 14 of these survival boxes to families in need
in the Philippines. 100% of the donation given goes
to disaster relief as Shelterbox Canada is powered
by volunteers.

y the end of Janu-
ary, Minnedosa Town
Council hopes to secure
a lead on private funding
for a new medical clinic.
We are convinced of
the need to build a new
clinic. We have had a
number of conversations
with a private company
and we will likely hear
back from them by the
end of January on whether
or not they plan to move
forward with the develop-
ment of a clinic here, ex-
plained Minnedosa may-
or, Ray Orr.
Te Town has been
working closely with the
Regional Health Authority
to determine the best lo-
cation for the new clinic,
pinpointing a lot west of
the Minnedosa hospi-
tal and North of Frontier
Trading Company.
T is is something
that has been an issue for
a while. Our current clinic
is quite out-of-date and
we have an ongoing chal-
lenge keeping doctors in
town. Having a more up-
to-date facility for them
to work in would certainly
be more attractive to them
and equally benefcial to
residents, added Orr.
By the end of January
the Town should know
whether or not they have
a private company inter-
ested and will proceed
accordingly. Te private
investors would invest in
the construction and on-
going management of the
clinic.
At this time we have
a general design for the
clinic which the RHA has
assisted with and we are
certainly prepared to pro-
ceed with plans once we
confrm the private fund-
ing, said Orr.

Canadians go bowling ev-
ery week, and nearly all of
them have been touched
by cancer to one extent or
another.
Throughout the

every paid shoe rental to
the Canadian Cancer So-
ciety in the Tird Annual

da member centres across
the country as bowling
steps up in the fght for
life. Funds raised through

SHELTERBELTS

SUBMITTED
A
t the Manitoba Con-
servation Districts
Association Conference
held in December, the
Little Saskatchewan Riv-
er Conservation District
recognized Charles and
Meriel Tavernor with the
LSRCD Conservation
Award. The following de-
scribes their stewardship
practices.
Charles and Meriel
Tavernor emigrated from
England seven and a half
years ago. Coming from
a dairy, beef, and sheep
background, raising
cattle and/or sheep was
what they planned to do
in Canada. More impor-
tantly than finding a farm
already set-up for those
types of enterprises was
settling in an area that
had the natural features
that they had been used
to in England. The com-
ponents being natural
water features, trees, and
an undulating and pas-
toral landscape. Located
north of Basswood, their
farm lies along the south
side of the Little Sas-
katchewan River Valley.
The picturesque view is
comprised of an undulat-
ing tract of bush, slough,
and farmland that lies
along the valley edge and
runs down approximately
250 feet to the river in the
bottom.
When the Tavernors
purchased their 1,100
acre farm, 800 acres were
under cultivation, 200
acres sustained bush on
the steep valley walls, and
100 acres were comprised
of a mixture of sloughs,
bush and a lake. A Con-
servation Agreement was
completed with the Man-
itoba Habitat Heritage
Corporation to protect
the 300 acres of natural
features.
Early on in the farm
transition process, an
environmental farm plan
was completed. This
tool helped to identify
actions and have access
to expertise and funding
resources to complete
the transition. Guided
by detailed maps to help
them plan perimeter and
cross-fences and buried
water lines and troughs,
the Tavernors have used
a phased approach to
transition the 800 acres of
annual cropland. In turn,
each parcel is fenced, has
watering infrastructure
installed, and is seeded
down to permanent, pe-
rennial forages. Seed-
ing down the annual
cropland to rotationally
grazed forages has sta-
bilized the soil, reduced
water erosion, and at the
same time increased wa-
ter retention. Other ac-
tions taken have been the
restoration of wetlands
by plugging man-made
drainage channels, re-
pairing cuts and gullies,
and planting shelterbelts.
While we are not
necessarily doing any-
thing here that is not be-
ing done equally well or
better by others, we are
doing it against the back-
drop of a very beautiful
tract of countryside.
Charles Tavernor.
The Tavernors have
spent countless hours
fencing and being out
with the cattle. Their
farm is not only the place
where they make their
living it is also their oa-
sis where flora and fauna
abound. As Meriel put it
Our farm is a place that
lifts your heart and not
one that depresses your
soul.
It is for their pas-
sion to integrate farming,
wildlife, conservation,
and environmental stew-
ardship that the Little
Saskatchewan River Con-
servation District recog-
nizes Charles and Me-
riel Tavernor Parkland
Ridge Farm with the 2013
Conservation District
Award.

By SHAUNA SOTAS-
BURTON
T
he Minnedosa HIP
sure have been playing
on a fast winning streak!
Tey have been lighting up
nets all over the place!
On December 7th
they hosted Carberry in
Minnedosa where Car-
berry provided to be very
good opponents for our
HIP Team. Tey made
our Bombers work for the
puck, but our players came
out with a win of 13-6.
Game scorers were Zach
Lamb, Ryder Smith, Grady
Burton, Matthew Toews
and Colby Pentecost.
December 14th found
the HIP team in a tourna-
ment in Neepawa where

stone and Rivers and the
HIPs came out with two
more wins! A big congrat-
ulations goes out to Noah

he kept scoring to get a hat
trick! Great work Noah!
On December 21st
they played the Rivers Jets
and put another win under
their helmets, winning the
game 16-8. Scorers were
Colby Pentecost, Zach
Lamb, Ryder Smith and
Gavin Smith.
January 4th found our
players in a tournament
in Souris. Our frst game
was against the Wawanesa
Wilds and our Bombers at
frst werent too sure about
the size of the ice surface,
but after they got their
bearings, the played an ex-
cellent game and took the
Wilds for a ride, coming
out on top with a score of
12-8. Scorers were Colby
Pentecost, Zach Lamb, Ry-
der Smith, Matthew Toews
and Gavin Smith.
Te next game in the
tournament our Bomb-
ers played the home town

game right to the end!
Both teams played excep-
tional well and each de-
sired the win. I am proud
to say that our Bombers
came up on top with the
score 10-9! Game scor-
ers were Matthew Toews,
Ryder Smith, Gavin Smith

Atoms
By GARY TOPHAM
T
he Minnedosa Atoms
played two games be-
fore Christmas against Ha-
miota and Neepawa Na-
tives. In both games, the
Atoms played hard, had
many chances to score but
seemed not to be able to
capitalize on their chanc-
es. Scoring a goal in each
game was Cole Topham.
After Christmas, the
Atoms played games
against Shoal Lake and
Neepawa Hawks. Te At-
oms must of had a little
too much turkey over the
break and could not score
in either game!
Over the January 4th
to 6th weekend, the Atom
Bombers played in the Ru-
ral Tournament of Cham-
pions over in Neepawa. Te
frst two games saw the At-
oms play against Killarney
and Gladstone. Congratu-
lations to Kyler Sutherland
for scoring our only goal in
these two games. Assists
going to Austin Taylor and
Victor Lamb.
Sunday morning, saw
us up against Shoal Lake
in the B-Side semi fnal.
T is was the Bombers
best game of the weekend.
Every time the Bombers
would get within one goal,
the opposition seemed to
be able to sneak another
one in. Final score of 7-5
for Shoal Lake. Scoring for
the Bombers were Bryden
McFarlane with the hat
trick, single goals by Chase
Miller and Cole Topham.
Assists to Cole Topham
with two and Callie Magu-
ire with one.
Our next action is this
Sunday in Straithclair.
Come out and cheer your
local team!

DATED this 10 day oI January, 2014
SANDY LAKE CREDIT UNION LIMITED
By Order oI the Board oI Directors

SUBMITTED
S
unrise Credit Union
and Sandy Lake Credit
Union are pleased to an-
nounce they have entered
into discussions and com-
menced due diligence ac-
tivities with the intention
to amalgamate by May
2014.
Sandy Lake Credit
Union CEO Iris Popple-
stone said in a statement
We feel that amalgama-
tion will strengthen our f-
nancial position and help
us continue to provide the
best products and services
to our membership. Also,
we want to give our people
the best tools for the job. A
merger with Sunrise Credit
Union will create the ca-
pacity to make that hap-
pen.
Because a merger
with Sandy Lake Credit
Union would account for
less than a 10% increase
in assets, the merger can
be approved by the Sun-
rise Credit Union Board
of Directors without a full
membership vote.
Sandy Lake Credit
Union members, however,
will have the opportunity
to vote at their next Annual
General Meeting to be held
in Sandy Lake on January
27th.
We warmly welcome
Sandy Lake Credit Union
members to the Sunrise
family. By joining togeth-
er and sharing resources
such as technology, f-
nance, knowledge and ex-
perience, ef ciencies will
improve, allowing access
to increased products and
services which will provide
greater value to our com-
bined membership and
communities, stated Har-
ry Bowler, President/CEO
of Sunrise Credit Union.
Sandy Lake will mark
the 14th community served
by Sunrise Credit Union.
Sandy Lake contributes
approximately $17 million
of assets to the organiza-
tion bringing the amal-
gamated total assets close
to $800 million serving ap-
proximately 22,000 mem-
bers. Both Sandy Lake and
Sunrise Credit Unions are
member owned commu-
nity focused organizations
dedicated to providing
personalized competitive
fnancial services for the
beneft of members and
communities. It is these
foundational and co-op-
erative philosophies that
bring these two like-mind-
ed Credit Unions together.
Tere are no planned
job cuts resulting from the
merger and Sandy Lake
employees will enjoy an
expanded range of de-
velopment opportunities
available through Sunrise
Credit Union.)
Sunrise and Sandy Lake Credit Unions intend to Merge

Sharpe, Vivian Catherine
August , - November ,
Born August 31, 1921 in Newdale, MB, Vivian passed away peacefully November 30, 2013 in
Brandon Regional Health Centre at the age of 92.
Vivian was the frst of eight children born to Fred and Alice Coutts. She took her schooling
in Newdale. When she entered the workforce, it was as a switchboard operator. Over the years
she worked boards in Newdale, Basswood, Minnedosa and fnally Brandon at the Mental Health
Centre.
Mom met the love of her life, Don Sharpe, while working in Minnedosa and on October 19, 1943
they married and took up residence on a farm in the Hazelwood district (east of Minnedosa). In
1948 they moved to their farm at Rapid City where they raised their family of four. Tey had a
mixed farm and for a period of time continued to raise mink. Mom was a woman of many talents
and not afraid of work. She learned to supplement income from the weekly cream cheque by
canning fruit, vegetables and chickens in the fall and always venison when Dad brought home
the fruits of deer hunting season. In the late 1950s the family moved to town (Rapid City) where
Mom worked at the local convenience store. Upon moving back to the farm, they went into the
dairy business. Mom delivered milk to customers in town and for a while she was also a school
van driver.
Vivian was passionate about the Rebekah Lodge. She joined Magdalena (Newdale) in 1943,
transferred in 1952 with her mother to Deborah (Rapid City) then to Naomi (Brandon) in 2009.
She had held every of ce except fnancial secretary and treasurer, most recently she was musician
for Naomi for 15 years. Dad used to say she would somehow make it to lodge even if she had
to crawl. Just recently she was presented with her 70 year jewel. Mom was made an honourary
member of the Valleyview Junior Lodge as she was the musician for their drill team. She was very
proud of her boys who won every competition they entered both nationally and internationally.
Vivian was an original member of Rapid City UCW, one of the founding members of the Rapid
City Figure Skating Club, an agricultural society member and recently belonged to the Park
Avenue seniors at Oddfellows Corner.
Her hobbies included: knitting, crocheting, sewing, doing crossword puzzles, reading and
casino trips. She was a regular bingo player and looked forward to nightly canasta games with
her friends. During her years on the farm, Mom began exhibiting baking and handiwork at local
fairs. She won many prizes. As a bonus, family members were always delighted to eat leftovers
and perceived failures. She never lost her love for baking. Up to and including last year she made
goodie boxes for each of our families.
Her priority was family, her hugs genuine and her love unconditional. She left her imprint on
all our lives.
Vivian was predeceased by her parents, her loving husband Don, son Elwin, brother Ronald
Coutts (at birth) and sisters Vera Coutts (2 years), Elsie Phelps, and Marjorie (Wray) Andrew. Left
to cherish her memory are children: Sharon (Gerry) Kemp, Robert (Lois) Sharpe and Norma
(Bill) Routledge. Grandchildren and great-grandchildren: Brian (Shelley) Kemp, Tamara and
Keira; Donna (Chris) Drysdale, Mitch and Dallas; Mike (Bailee) Sharpe; Lesley (Trent) Hedley,
Kristen, Megan, Carter and Brooklyn; Bob Routledge; Shawn (Elysia) Routledge, William; Chris
McDonald; Kevin (Emily) McDonald, Roland and Aveline. Sisters: Olive Hansen, Dorothy
Tompson and Beatrice Andrews, brothers-in-law: Fred Oberg and Mervyn (Jean) Sharpe,
several cousins and numerous nieces and nephews.
A celebration of Vivians life was held in the Rapid City United Church on December 10, 2013,
with Reverend Barb Jardine and Elgin Hall of ciating. Burial was in the Rapid City cemetery.
Memories Chapel was in charge of arrangements thank you Greg.
Te family appreciates all those who were so attentive to Moms needs over the last two and
a half years. Your excellent care helped maintain a level of quality that allowed her to remain
living independently. Tank you to all who paid visits, called, sent cards, food, fowers or made
donations to the Kidney Foundation. (x)

OBITUARIES
Harvey Winford Horner
August , -
December ,
Harvey Winford Horner passed
away peacefully on December
23, 2013 at the Minnedosa
Personal Care Home. Harvey
will be greatly missed by his wife
of 60 years, Mary, stepson Larry
McCracken (Joy), stepdaughter
Colleen Cowan (Wayne), son
Alan, daughter Cindy Grant
(Greg), grandchildren Shannon
and Nicole McCracken, Lee and Ryan
Cowan, Sean, Laura and
Drew Horner and Robin and Laurel
Grant, great-grandchildren Levi Lepird and Bo and Brenna
Cowan, sisters-in-law Joyce, Lorna and Pat Horner, brother-
in-law Archie Londry and many nieces and nephews. He
was predeceased by parents Winford and Annie, his brothers
Wilbert, David (Pete), Elliot and Alvin Horner, his sisters Eunice
Torkelson and Winona (Nonie) Londry, and his brother-in-
law Bert Torkelson.
Harvey was born in Minnedosa, Manitoba on August 21,
1925, the ffth child of Winford and Annie Horner. He spent
his early school years at McBride School and graduated from
Minnedosa Collegiate in 1943. At 17, he joined the Royal
Canadian Air Force, taking his pilots training in various centres
across Canada, and receiving his wings in Dauphin. After the
war ended, Harvey returned to Minnedosa to work on the
Canadian Pacifc Railroad. While walking back and forth to
work, a neighbour, Mary McCracken, caught his attention. He
learned that Mary, a young widow with two children, was a
skilled seamstress, and so soon discovered that he had some
pants that desperately needed hemming. It didnt take too long
for Harvey to realize that Mary, Larry and Colleen were meant
to form a new family together. Mary and Harvey were married
on June 19, 1953, in the United Church Manse, as Reverend
Matchetts frst wedding in Minnedosa. Son, Alan, was born in
August, 1954 and daughter Cindy arrived in March, 1958.
Harvey always wanted to return to farming and in 1960 he
and Mary sold their home in Minnedosa and bought a farm in
the Havelock district, south of town. Te drafty house was a bit
of a shock to the family, but the classic red barn on the property
was soon flled was beef cattle, milk cows and very briefy, a few
pigs. Chickens, cats and a black lab completed the farmyard
population. For the next several decades, Harvey worked full-
time on the CPR while expanding the farming operation, with
son Alan as his partner almost from the time he could walk.
Harvey was always willing to try new farming innovations, being
one of the frst in the community to try anhydrous, continuous
cropping, and no till. He was a true conservationist, and the
health of the land and the wildlife on the farm were uppermost
in his mind.
Harvey was a school trustee for Havelock School until its
closure in 1967. He was a leader in the Minnedosa 4-H beef
club for many years. He served as president of the United Grain
Growers in Minnedosa, representing the district at the national
meetings. He was a lifetime member of the Minnedosa legion.
He was an avid curler and golfer.
Harvey worked for the CPR for nearly 40 years, beginning as
a trainman and retiring as a conductor in 1985. He and Alan
continued farming together, but with a bit more free time,
Harvey and Mary were also able to travel. Mexico was a favourite
destination, and they explored not only the beaches, but also
many of the agricultural and historical areas throughout the
country. Tey visited Hawaii, Europe, the Caribbean, many
parts of the United States, and Marys family home in northern
Scotland. In one year, they spent the frst day of spring in
Alaska and the frst day of winter in Australia.
Harvey found joy in many things. He loved music, poetry,
hunting, fshing, golfng, and curling and managed to get a both
hole in one in golf and a 29 hand in cribbage. He was always
happy to spend time with his grandchildren, who all took turns
eating porridge on grandpas lap over the years. Above all, he
loved his years on the farm with Mary.
In lieu of fowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimers
Society or the Minnedosa Personal Care Home.

Genung, Donald Murray
March , - December ,
Donald Murray Genung, beloved husband of Marlene, passed
away on Saturday, December 14, 2013 after a lengthy illness
at the age of 79. A celebration of Murrays life was held in the
Minnedosa United Church on Wednesday, December 18, 2013
with Reverend Natasha Pearen of ciating.
Born on March 2, 1934 at the family home to Maurice and
Olive (Dot) Genung, in the R.M. of Blanshard, he attended
White Bank Lu School and later Oak River School. He worked
as an electrical technician for the Department of National
Defense. During this time he married the former Marlene Burt
and together they raised four children in Oak River until 1974
when he was employed by the Rolling River School Division
and they moved to Minnedosa. In 1989, they moved out to
Basswood where he enjoyed his garden.
Murray was a quiet person and enjoyed singing and playing
the guitar if there was not too many around. He liked country
western music and was good at yodeling. He always had time to
help family and friends with their plumbing, electrical, painting
and sometimes farming.
Murray will be remembered and sadly missed by many:
especially his wife Marlene of 57 years; his son Donald;
daughters Sherrie (Clark), Cathy (Chris), Maxine (Cam); ten
grandchildren and 12 great grandchildren. Also surviving is
one sister Marjorie (Jack) and two brothers Bob (Wilma) and
Brian (Brenda). Murray was predeceased by brother William.
He will also be missed by brothers in law Jack (Wendy), Brian
(Margaret) and sisters in law Mayvis (Jim), Linda (Syl) and
numerous nieces and nephews.
Murrays remains will be interred at a later date in the
Basswood Cemetery.
Longstaff, Charles W.
March , - November ,
Charles W. (Charlie) Longstaf, youngest son of Mr. And Mrs.
W. Longstaf, was born at Cardale, MB, March 2, 1924. He died
November 24, 2013 in the Brandon Hospital with his family by
his side.
He was predeceased by his parents, one brother, Roland, two
brothers in law, Tom Yorke and Bert Baldwin. He is survived
by his siblings Winnie Yorke, William (Peggy), Douglas (Ruby),
Mary Baldwin, plus many nieces and nephews.
He completed his Grade XII at Cardale. His parents had come
to Canada in 1910 and farmed until 1947 when they moved to
British Columbia and Charlie went with them and enrolled
at University of BC where he attained a degree in Agricultural
Engineering. He moved to northern BC where he built a gas
plant for Marvell Construction and several other projects in that
area. He then got a homestead at Fort St. John. He built a store
in partnership with a friend at Fort Nelson. He loved Northern
BC. From there he moved to the Fraser Valley and bought a
farm at Mission. After a few years, he moved to Surrey where
he built his own house at Panorama Ridge. On retirement
he became interested in building airplanes. One is fying at
Ladner, BC and the second one, a replica of a Spitfre, is fying
out of Calgary. When he built his frst plane he few it home to
Cardale from Ladner to the family farm. Te third plane, which
he never fnished, is with his great nephew Tim Longstaf in
Brandon and hopefully will be completed someday.
He will be missed by everyone as he came home every year
for Christmas and every summer. He will also be missed by his
best friend, Jim Drew on Vancouver Island. He was laid to rest
in the Rapid City Cemetery after the service at the Covenant
Church in Minnedosa.
Donations in his memory can be made to Commonwealth
Museum in Brandon. (x)
James William Cecil Trott
May , December ,
Te family of James William Cecil BillTrott were left with
cherished memories and heavy hearts to bear his peaceful
passing on December 29, 2013 at the palliative care unit at
Minnedosa District Hospital.
Bill was born in Minnedosa, Manitoba on May 26, 1940 the
only son of Cecil and Clara Trott. He grew up exploring natures
wonders around him on the family farm.
Bill received his education at Basswood Consolidated School.
During Grade One he left the farmhouse at 7 a.m in a horse
drawn vehicle, returning at 6 p.m.- a very long day for a six-
year-old. Fortunately, after Grade One the horse drawn van
became motorized and the days not as long.
Bill attended Sunday School on a regular basis and was
confrmed as a member of Cadurcis United Church.
After school Bill joined his father farming the family farm,
an occupation he enjoyed right to the end. In fact, he helped
his son Clair take of the 2013 crop. As well as making things
grow, Bill delighted in making things go. He was never daunted
by any mechanical problems on vehicles or machinery and
spent many productive and rewarding hours improving their
performance.
On July 8, 1961 Bill married Doreen Campbell of Eden. From
their union were born three children: Denise, Claire and Eileen.
Bills family gave him much pride and enjoyment and he loved
spending time with them sharing stories, games, music and
laughter. Bill also enjoyed visiting with family and friends and
reminiscing about years gone by.
Bill was predeceased by his father-in-law Colin Campbell in
2000, his mother-in-law Margaret Campbell in 2004, his father
Cecil Trott in 2006, his mother Clara Trott in 2008, his brother-
in-law Ken Hallett in 2009 and his son-in-law Wilbert Weir in
2012.
He is survived by his beloved wife of 52 years, Doreen, his
daughters Denise and Eileen and his son Claire, his delightful
granddaughters Chelsey and Nicole Weir, his sister Mavis
(Wallace) Platt, two sisters-in-law Leona (Bill) Peters and Ida
Hallatt. Tere are also three nieces and two nephews and their
families.
Bill was a very special husband, father, grandfather, brother
and friend. He will be missed.
He Only Takes the Best
God saw that he was getting tired,
A cure was not to be
So He put His arms around him
And whispered Come with Me.
With tearful eyes, we watched him sufer
And saw him fade away.
Although we loved him dearly
We could not make him stay.
A golden heart stopped beating
Hard working hands to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best.

Dear Reena,
Do you know what I
can do to prevent my cof-
fee from tasting bitter mor-
ning after morning after
morning? Dave
Dear Dave,
Begin by inviting
someone over with their
cofee maker. Make your
cofee using the same
water and cofee grounds.
Tis will determine wheth-
er your machine and/or
water are the culprit. Clean
all parts of your cofee
maker. Make sure that your
cofee grounds are fresh,
Columbian cofee tends to
taste less bitter than some
others, but experiment
with a variety of blends.
Add a pinch of salt to cof-
fee grounds before brew-
ing cofee.
Dear Reena,
Reading in my news-
paper, I was amazed at
learning there are diferent
colours for the days of the
week with the plastic bread
clips. I have a question
though; I noticed there was
NO color stated for Wed-
nesdays, is bread not made
on that day? Best regards,
Maureen
Dear Maureen,
While it is true that
many stores do not hold
a bread tag color for Wed-
nesday and Sunday (be-
cause they do not bake
those days). Your best bet
for fresh bread is to check
the date on the tag just in
case one store changes the
colour pattern on you.
Feedback from Readers
who Care:
Dear Reena,
Just read your column
regarding keeping brown
sugar usable and not dry
and hard!I have found the
very best solution BY FAR
is to keep brown sugar in
a tight container (like Tup-
perware) and put a fresh
marshmallow in with it.
It is absolutely wonder-
ful and the marshmallow
stays good, too. Problem
solved!
Nadine
Hi Reena,
Here is another way
to make brown gravy that
my Ukrainian grand-
mother taught me. Brown
1-2 tbsp. four (or more as
needed) in a hot dry fry-
ing pan. Be careful not to
burn it by continually sift-
ing it around. Once its the
color you want, turn down
the heat and start add-
ing your beef or poultry
juices or favoring and hot
water. Continue to mix so
it doesnt clump. Season
with salt and pepper to
taste. Sometimes I add a
little Oxo and/or poultry
seasoning for more favors.
It took me a couple tries to
get it right but it works in
a pinch if you dont have
any gravy mix or when you
want to use gluten free
four. Take care,
Teina
Re: Cleaning baseball
caps in the house
Dear Reena,
Putting them in the
dishwasher is not a good
idea as the cap fabric will
trap food particles. My
method is put them in with
the regular clothes wash
but not in the dryer. I take
them from the washing
machine and frmly stuf
the skull part cap with a
dry towel. Shape the peak
to original. Leave it to air
dry. All shapes are retained
like new.
