Pink the Rink Raises


Over $1,400 For Cancer

he Minnedosa Chancellors home opener on November 20th was a true overtime victory for Cancer
research! Their very fi rst ever Pink the Rink game was a
breathtaking, action packed battle against the Dauphin
Clippers and one of the most deadly diseases on earth,
Cancer. Battling two teams at once, dressed in pink, and
sporting pink tape on their sticks, was a true real-life home
opener for these young athletes and our community!
The game saw an amazing turnout. It was incredibly nice to see so many fans from our local community
supporting high school hockey and joining in the fight
against cancer. Two of the grade 12 team members,
Jordan Willey and Viktor Propp came up with the fundraising idea over the summer while they were discussing ways of making their last year of high school sports
more unique. Both young men have lost love ones to this
deadly disease and thought it would be a good idea to
reach out to our community and give people an opportunity to help support finding a cure.
They raffl ed off a Chancellors Pink the Rink edition
jersey, signed by all the team and a Brandon Wheat Kings
jersey signed by the Wheat Kings players. The team also
contributed their portion of the 50/50 draw, and in a surprise donation, the winner of the 50/50 also gave back
half of their prize! That made it a 75/25 victory!

he Minnedosa Fire Department was called


to a house firesoutheast
of Minnedosa near the
R.M. of Odanah municipal shed on the afternoon
of Thursday, November
19th. The local fire department dispatched one
rescue unit, one pumper
truck and a one-ton utility

truck. Also attending the


scene was an ambulance
and two police cruisers.
The Town of Minnedosa
dispatched a water truck
to help extinguish the
flames, but the fi refighters
were able to access water
from an adjacent slough
to fill the pumper truck.
The Offi ce of the Fire
Commissioner
determined the fi re to be acci-

dental with an estimated


damage of approximately
$200,000.
Th e house was occupied at the time of the
blaze, but no one was
home that afternoon.
Th e tremendous winds
hampered the situation,
so firefi ghters could not
enter the home but only
battle the fl ames with an
external attack, protect-

ing the surrounding structures and trees.


Originally, there were
some concerns that some
of the residents pets may
have been trapped inside
the burning home but it
was later determined that
the pets including cats
and a couple of dogs were
safe in an adjacent building.

PC Leader Shares His Vision With Local Constituents


By DARRYL HOLYK

n the afternoon of
Thursday, November 19th, approximately 20
Progressive Conservatives
gathered at the 50+ Activity Centre to hear from their
provincial party leader, Brian Pallister. Brian was on a
tour visiting communities
and sharing his parties
vision for a better Manitoba.
Pallister was introduced by Greg Nesbitt, who
is running as the PC candidate for MLA of the Riding
Mountain Constituency in
the April 19th, 2016 provincial election. Special guests
in attendance at the event
were former local MLA,
Harold Gilleshammer and
current MLA for Midland,
Blaine Pederson.
During his visit to
Minnedosa, Pallister shared
his views on a number of
important priorities facing
Manitoba and its residents.
He shared personal stories
about his parents, family and neighbours working hard to survive through
good times and tough
times. Thats the kind of
people I come from and

thats the kind of people


you come from, said Brian.
We have to get back to real
Manitoba values. Manitobans are compassionate
people and we care for one
another and our communities. I believe Manitobans
understand teamwork. We
can do far more as a team
working together for the
province, the public sector,
the private sector, the nonprofi t volunteer sector far
better than working separately and alone.
Pallister is concerned
that Manitoba values have
been derailed under its
current leadership but sees
opportunities to get the
province back on track and
headed in the right direction. I have learned a few
lessons in my life and one
of them is that you cant
have everything. You cant
spend money on everything. If you try saying yes
to everything you are going to have to say no later.
We need to work on some
discipline in our province.
Thats how we are going to
make it stronger, explained
the party leader.
A former teacher himself, Pallister has a strong

connection to education
and its importance to
Manitoba students who
are our next generation of
community leaders. He
shared his concerns with
the current policy in which
educators cannot fail a student and have to pass them
on to the next level whether
or not they are ready. I
taught grade nine in Gladstone and was a grade nine
student myself one time,
stated Pallister. Back then,
my two favourite classes
were gym and lunch. If
my teacher had told me I
didnt have to do my assignments and would still
go on to Grade 10 I would
have spent a lot more time
at gym and lunch than I did
with science or math. We
have to change our education system for the better.
Brian went on to explain
his vision to achieve this
goal. We need to empower our administrators, our
trustees, our teachers and
our parents to know whats
going on and to do a better job of making sure our
young people can use the
full potential they have to
be uplifted.
Th roughout his visits
to Manitoba communities,
a frequent issue Brian and
his team have been hearing from Manitobans is
how there is currently too

much red tape and regulations which are negatively
affecting communities.
Brian shared a story of a
91-year-old woman who
has volunteered in her
community for decades.
Now, unable to physically
go out and help she continues to support her commu-

Christmas

nity however she can. As


she has for many years, this
volunteer wanted to donate
to her churchs fall supper
and made a jellied salad
to donate to the cause.
Sadly, when the salad was
dropped off at the fall supper it could not be accepted. As it had not been prepared onsite where the fall
supper was being served,
the salad did not meet current regulations and was
basically deemed an illegal salad.
Pallister and his party
members strongly believe
some major changes have
to be made in order to
build Manitoba stronger.
We need to say no to some
things so that we can say
yes to the more important

things. Yes to a better education, yes to better access


to health care, yes to better intelligent investments
for strategic infrastructure,
yes to all these important
things and more because
Manitobas worth saving,
stated Pallister.
Th roughout the upcoming months, as Manitoba builds up for its next
provincial election, Manitobans will be hearing
more visions and promises for each political party
and their candidates. From
those visions, plans and
promises, Manitoba voters will personally decide
which party they feel will
be the best choice to move
the province forward into
the future.

which means a busy time as we prepare for the holidays.
Christmas parties, shopping and celebrations are underway and will continue throughout the next few years.
Locally, there is a lot happening such as next weekends
visit from the CP Holiday Train in support of the local

MP Officially Sworn In

Our recently re-elected Member of Parliament,


Robert Sopuck was offi cially sworn in during a special
ceremony in Ottawa this past Monday, November 23rd.
Sopuck promises to be focussed on serving the riding of
Dauphin-Swan River-Neepawa and to be a service based
MP. Last Friday, November 20th, Sopuck was appointed
the Offi cial Opposition Critic for Wildlife Conservation
and Parks Canada.

Drive Safe

It has been a tragic week on Manitoba roadways with


three young Manitobans losing their lives in separate
motor vehicle accidents. Winter is here and we all need
to be reminded to adjust our driving for winter driving
conditions. Something as simple as giving yourself a bit
of extra travel time and reducing your speed when road
conditions are not perfect can ensure more motorists
and their passengers arrive alive. Hopefully, with some
extra care and caution on the roads there will be no additional motor vehicle fatalities this winter.

Political Parties Need To Come Clean On CPP


By ELLIOT SIMS
Canadian Federation of Independent Business

anitobans have heard a lot from political parties in recent weeks about their vision for the
future of the province. All parties have set ambitious goals of one kind or another, but no party has
staked a clear position on the most important federal-provincial issue aff ecting small business owners
and working Manitobans: a devastating increase to
Canada Pension Plan (CPP) payroll tax premiums.
Since 1965, the CPP has been a fundamental part of
the retirement savings system in Canada. Currently,
working Manitobans and their employers both contribute 4.95 per cent of the workers salary to CPP
through a payroll tax. In return, an average employee
receives 25 per cent of their pre-retirement salary after age 64 in monthly CPP benefits.
Over the last several years, many provincial governments most notably Ontario have actively
pushed to increase CPP benefits and to pay for these
changes with higher CPP payroll taxes. While there
are several different ideas about what a bigger CPP
looks like, Prime Minister Trudeaus positive comments about Ontarios plan suggests he is considering a 40 per cent increase. This would require increasing the CPP payroll tax to nearly seven percent
of salary for both the worker and their employer.
While this may not sound like a large change, it
would result in a tax increase of up to $900 per year
for every working Manitoban! For employers, the bill
would be up to $900 annually for each employee.
Given the signifi
cant provincial tax increases in
recent years (PST, income taxes, gas taxes etc.), Manitobans simply cannot aff ord yet another tax hike
without having to cut back on essential goods and
services spending. In fact, a recent Ipsos-Reid poll of
working Manitobans indicates 54 percent cannot afford to save more than they already do for retirement.
Many CPP expansion advocates also overlook
the fact that all working Manitobans will see the large
mandatory premium hike, but few will see all the
promised benefits. Thats because there is a 40-year
phase-in period for any change to pension benefits.

Under the Ontario model, the complete CPP premium hike would be introduced in very short order, but
only those still working after 2055 would see the full
benefits. For most of todays working Manitobans, it
will be an immediate large tax increase with minimal
future benefits.
This type of fi ne print is why Manitobans prefer
to save for retirement through methods other than an
expanded CPP system. According to that same IpsosReid poll, if Manitobans had additional resources to
set aside for retirement, they would prefer to put that
money into more flexible TFSA and RRSP programs
(52 percent and 45 percent, respectively) rather than
the CPP system (23 percent). This is not surprising
given that any unused money in a TFSA or RRSP account can be passed on to future generations upon
ones death. With CPP, other than a small spousal
pension, the money disappears.
Fortunately, the proposed disastrous mandatory CPP payroll tax increase on Manitobans is not
yet etched in stone. To implement the proposal, the
federal government and two-thirds of the provinces
representing two-thirds of the population must agree
to the changes. With the new federal government
supporting a CPP increase, provincial governments
control the fate of CPP.
It is very possible that Manitobas government
could be the deciding vote on whether the CPP tax
hike proposal is approved when it comes up for discussion amongst premiers and finance ministers.
And the impact of that vote will be felt for decades.
Despite the importance of this decision, Manitobas political parties are silent on their specific
CPP intentions. While the provincial government has
said they generally support the concept of CPP expansion, they are not clear on the size of premium
increase they desire. Other parties have been silent
altogether.
Small business owners and working Manitobans
are clear in their opposition to a CPP tax hike. With
a provincial election less than six months away, its
time provincial political parties outline their CPP positions. Manitobans deserve to know.

was perplexed. Tasked


to garner attention for a
business that had a twenty-year track record in the
community, it felt like my
weekly press releases to
the local media were being received, flipped over
and used as scrap paper to
scribble down bigger stories. Every week felt like
a missed opportunity
missing thousands of new
customers by simple lack
of awareness. I needed a
hook.
Enter Stockwell Day.
Th e charismatic leader
of the Canadian Alliance
had dissention in the
ranks of his party, with
many MPs unhappy with
his leadership. The furor
intrigued me like a story
written for a prime time
drama, not the dull business as usual doubletalk
I was accustomed to seeing from politicians. It
gave me an idea.
I crafted a letter to
Mr. Day, expressing my
sympathy for the fractured relationships in
his party, inviting him to

fl y his team to Winnipeg


where wed offer up ring
time at our weekly wrestling matches for a winner take all battle royale
to crown the undisputed
party leader. I didnt get
a return letter, not even a
thank you for my kind and
sincere off er. The media,
on the other hand, ate it
up. We had full page coverage the next morning on
page two of the citys tabloid the next morning.
It wasnt just another
run of the mill press release about a twenty-yearold business in a century
old industry.
Instead,
we had just brought our
product to life and made
it relevant to people.
How does this apply
to what we do at a community level? Quite simply, we need to make our
stories relevant and relatable and not just a poorly
veiled effort to secure editorial coverage instead of
(what should be) a paid
advertisement.
As a community, we
cant write a story about

0LQQHGRVD,QQ

that everybody knows


that part already. Marketing is social and we
could use all the voices we
can assemble to spread
the word.
Consider this: What
weve built so far as a community is an unfinished
puzzle. The readers hold
the missing pieces. So we
write our story to get them
involved, to complete the
picture.
If you havent turned
the page yet, take a moment to think about our
local projects, our committees, clubs and our
respective goals for the
future. Theres a lot to our
story that we have yet to
share with the world (and
each other). We cant tell
the story of our town without you.

and real life is what is most important. Dan added,
Cancer is definitely real life and these boys have all
been affected by this in more than one way as seen by
the names represented on the backs of their special

see the excitement they both had for this night was
very heart warming, especially knowing they have
the respect for the people affected by cancer.
Well-done Chancellors! Pink the Rink is a real
milestone in the history of Minnedosa high school
hockey as well as our surrounding communities.
Pink the Rink is hoped to become an annual event.

n Saturday, November 21st the Minnedosa Bantam Bombers hosted the Hamiota Huskies. They
have faced Hamiota twice already this season. Hamiota
opened up the scoring close to the end of the first period. Minutes later the Bombers answered back with an
unassisted goal by Josh Good. The period fi nished tied
at one. The Bombers had a tough second period spotting the H uskies a five goal lead. They played a solid
third period, but were not able to make a come back.
The Bombers found themselves on the losing end with
a final score of 7-1.
They travel to Hamiota tonight (Friday)and hope for
better results this game and also play on the road tomorrow in Neepawa. Go Bombers!

Squirrel Hills Trail Celebrating 25th Anniversary


By TOM INSTANCE

he 2015/16 cross country ski season marks


the 25th year for Squirrel
Hills Trail located one kilometre west of Highway
#10, on P.R. 355 on the west
edge of Minnedosa.
The trail clearing began in the fall of 1991. It
was used for cross country skiing that year. The
Minnedosa and District
X-Country Ski Club was
formed in November of
1992. The club became responsible for maintaining
and grooming trails in the
Minnedosa area. The trail
has been expanded and
improved every year since
the initial clearing. There is
always a chance of seeing

wildlife on this well treed


trail, which is approximately 10 kilometres in
length. The offi cial opening of the newly named
Squirrel Hills X-Country
Ski and Hiking Trail took
place on December 2nd,
1995. Since the construction of the trail began, over
50 different volunteers
have helped in various capacities. 800 hours to clear
trails, 200 hours to build a
warm-up hut, over 1,000
hours grooming trails, and
40 hours to install trail
signs.
The project objectives
were to establish a quality
trail system within close
proximity to the Town of
Minnedosa to be used year
round for cross country

Rapid City 4-H


Beef Club Report
By ANJA VANDELANGEMHEEN

he Rapid City 4-H Beef Club had their reorganization


meeting on November 10th. The club elected a new
council. Wyatt Inglis is President, Thijs VandeLangemheen is Vice President. Brooklyn Hedley is secretary,
James Reid is Treasurer, and I, Anja VandeLangemeen
will be the Reporter for the year. Other members include
Drew Horner, Gavin Reid, Mona VandeLangemheen, and
Sierra Inglis. We welcome new members Justin McKee,
and Zane Finlay.
This year the club will be using new workbooks for
the projects, and the members are all excited for the
change. The club has decided to hold their fi rst weigh
day on December 5th, so we are hoping for nice weather.
The weigh day will be followed by a potluck lunch and the
December monthly meeting at the same time.

skiing, hiking, cycling, bird


watching, and horseback
riding. Now that the project is complete it is utilized
for all the activities listed,
with increased traffic each
year.
The fi rst phase of the
trail was completed in
1991. The next year, phase
two was completed, as well
as the construction of a
warm-up hut. In 1993, the
club purchased a brand
new, 1994 model Polaris
Wide Track Snowmobile
(which is still used today)
as well as trail grooming
equipment.
Additional
trail loops were added in
1993 and 1994. One additional loop was added
in 1995 along with the installation of trail maps and

signs. Each year the existing trail has been mowed,


all dead fall removed and
some additional trees removed to widen the trail.
Some trail levelling took
place in 1999, as well as
adding more signage. In
2009, the parking lot was
moved west of the junction
of Highway #10 and P.R.
355. The last trail loop was
added in 2010.
With the addition of
trail maps, signs, and trail
improvements, the trail became a year-round attraction for people wanting to
enjoy the outdoors while
getting exercise. Trees and
shrubs are only removed
on the trail, which leaves
plenty of bushes for the
wildlife in the area. The

trail provides many scenic views of the Town of


Minnedosa and the Little
Saskatchewan River Valley.
The main focus of the
trail was cross-country skiing, but it has many other
approved uses. On occasions the trail is utilized
for guided bird watching
groups, the local Cubs and
Pathfi nders, as well as the
Brandon Jackrabbit Ski
Club. It is also used for the
Minnedosa Archery Clubs
Annual 3-D Shoot.
Over the last 25 seasons the trail system has
been continuously improved. The signs from
1995 and the 1994 Snowmobile are showing their
age and will require future

fundraising for replacement but the trail only gets


better with age. The cross
country ski club is still active and can always use
new members.
Th is brain storm of
Gus Dixon and Ivan Shearer, who got me interested
many years ago, has survived 25 years and hopefully will be around and
utilized for many more
years to come.

Valley Snow Hawks Support Community Projects

Photo submitted

Ken Labelle, Past President of the Valley Snow


Hawks presents $5,000 to Dean Jordan, Deputy
Chief of the Minnedosa Volunteer Firefighters for
the purchase of a Utility Track Vehicle (UTV).
By JEFF PEARSON

ell it looks, and


feels like, winter is
here to stay for the season and many in our local community are celebrating as they get their
snowmobiles ready to
ride the trails. Most rid-

ers know the best way to


have fun and be safe, is to
ride with others on wellgroomed trails and enjoy
each others common interests. As far back as the
1970s there has been a
group of like-minded individuals gathering regularly for the enjoyment of

riding together. In 1990,


the Valley Snow Hawks
were officially formed as
a club promoting snowmobile safety, improving
relations with landowners for trails, assisting the
Town and Municipalities in emergency storm
situations, and promoting
snowmobile tourism.
Not only do the Valley
Snow Hawks have a ton
of fun riding together, but
they also contribute greatly to our community. In
the last 14 years the Valley
Snow Hawks have contributed over $28,000 through
fundraising efforts and
entertaining poker derbies. The club purchased
a new snowmobile for the
Minnedosa Fire Department in 2013, a trailer to
haul it on in 2014, and
donated $5,000 towards
a Utility Track Vehicle
(UTV) earlier this month.
Thats an approximate total of $14,000 within the
last three years!
In 2011, the club started an annual $250 bursary

Breast Cancer Foundation


$730 in 2006, the Town of
Minnedosa $400 for furnace repairs and replacement at the beach Pavilion
in 2008 and 2012, Starwood Avalanche Victims
Trust Fund $400 in 2009,
and $1,250 to support the
Lions Club Journey for
Sight since 2011.
Not only do these
sledheads know how to
have fun together, they
sure know how to give
back to their community.
Th e Valley Snow Hawks
raise the money through
various eff orts from volunteering at the Rockin
the Fields to selling tickets
for an ice fishing package,
a mini quad, and a snowmobile trailer. They have
held a Trivia Night and

their annual poker derby


is always a favourite, the
next one is set for January
2016.
Becoming a member
of the Valley Snow Hawks
is a fun outdoor activity
for the whole family and
teaches community mindedness. Membership fees
are only $20 a person or
$45 for a family of three or
more. Year after year happy members return and
the club is growing, but
always eager to welcome
more riders. For more information, or to become a
Valley Snow Hawk member please contact the new

Considerations to Reduce Effects Of Excess Moisture


By ELMER KASKIW

ield peas were one of


the most profitable
crops in 2015 with well
above average yields and
strong prices. This profitability has resulted in
some renewed interest in
growing field peas in 2016.
Field pea acres in
Manitoba peaked in 2002
when over 176,414 acres
were grown. Since then
fi eld pea acres have been
trending lower due to a
combination of lower pricing and successive years

of excess moisture. The


collapse in acres first began after the excess moisture events in 2005 where
acres and yields of most
crops were reduced. This
excess moisture saw field
pea acres drop in 2006 to
just over 80,000 acres. Pea
acreage then seemed to
stabilize between 70 and
95,000 acres until the excess moisture event of
2011 where over one million acres went unseeded.
Field pea acreage in
2011 was a mere 19,000
acres with average yields

of only 27 bushels per acre.


Since then fi eld pea acreage has rebounded but
struggled to stay in the 4050,000 acre range due to
an increasing incidence of
root rot and the increasing
popularity of soybeans as
a legume replacement in
rotations. Field pea acreage in 2015 was just over
68,000 acres.
So, if fi eld peas are
once again in your plans
for 2016 how does one
grow a successful crop
given some of this past
adversity? Below are a few

suggestions that may help


reduce the eff ects of excess moisture and the incidence and severity of root
rot.
Field Selection and
Early Seeding Choose a
well drained field that can
be seeded early. Early establishment allows for a
more mature plant which
is better able to tolerate
the heavier rain events that
typically occur in late May
and June. Early seeding
also allows for flowering
during the cooler late June
and early July time period

avoiding the disease and


insect issues associated
with warmer mid summer
temperatures . A dry June
during early vegetative
growth is key to above average pea yields.
Rotation Field peas
need a minimum four to
fi ve year break between
crops and a two to three
year break from a wheat
crop depending on the
severity of fusarium head
blight in the wheat crop.
The fusarium species that
causes fusarium head
blight in wheat can also
be partially responsible for
causing the root rot which
affects fi eld peas. Alternate suitable stubble for
seeding field peas includes
oats, barley, flax and canola stubble. In the case of
canola stubble one needs
to ensure phosphate levels
are more than adequate
since canola is a high
phosphate user and is a
non-mycorrhizal crop. The
success in canola stubble
is due to a drier soil profile
which is better able to tolerate excess moisture. One
also needs to be cognisant
of herbicide residues.
Seedling vigor, Seed
treatment and Inoculation Choose seed with
high germination and vigour and use a seed treatment. Plants are most susceptible to initial fusarium
infection during germination. Dual inoculation
is highly recommended
using both a seed applied
and granular inoculants. A
strong healthy plant will be
your best defense in fight-

ing off early mid-summer


stresses such as excess
moisture.
Variety Selection
Yield Manitoba data from
MASC is an excellent resource in evaluating variety performance by Risk
Area. Some new and improved yellow pea varieties include CDC Amarillo,
CDC Saff ron, along with
the popular CDC Meadow
and Agassiz.
Early weed control
Early seeding will allow
for earlier weed control
which will typically avoid
applications during periods of excess moisture. The
combined stress of excess
moisture and weed control
is what in many instances
allows the root rot complex
to overtake the plant.
Consider a fungicide
for control of Mycosphaerella blight which will also
help reduce lodging and
improve harvest-ability.
Desiccation and Harvest Desiccation allows
for more timely and uniform dry down of plants
and facilitates straight
cutting. Commence harvest once moisture drops
below 18% to reduce splits
and aerate.
Ultimately the key to
a successful pea crop is a
growing season that has
drier bias where root rot
issues are kept to a minimum. Given our surplus
soil moisture this fall a dry
spring would be welcome
by most planning on including fi eld peas in their
cropping plans this spring.

Skate Sharpening Tip


By

REENA NERBAS

Dear Betty,
Cacti are hardy plants
that require low nutrient
care. Homemade Cacti
Fertilizer is as easy as
combining 1 tbsp. Epsom
salt and one gallon water.
Misting plants with a spray
bottle rather than pouring
water into the pot is preferred. Succulents (plants
with leafy tissues that conserve moisture) only need
fertilizer in late spring or
summer. One of the very
best trade secrets for happy cacti is to add compost
rich in nutrients to soil
mix.

Dear Myron,
The general rule is to
sharpen skates after about
25 hours of skating. But
if he walks on hard surfaces or skates on rough
ice, blades will dull faster.
Sharpening skates too often can reduce the life of
the blades. If your son finds
that he no longer grips the
ice and slips or cant properly turn, or you observe
nicks in the blades, then

Sarah MacDonald Performs At Brandon Recital


By JEFF PEARSON

arah MacDonald, a
grade 12 student at
MCI performed her own
composition
entitled,
Memory at the Music Studio, in Brandon on November 21st. The Mani-

toba Registered Music


Teachers Association was
celebrating Canada Music
Week with a recital of all
Canadian works and Sarah was the only one playing her own composition.
Sarah started taking
piano lessons at the age

of 10 and also enjoys flute,


piccolo, tenor saxophone,
hand bells and guitar,
which she taught herself
how to play. She entered
her piano composition,
Memory, in the Rolling
River Festival of the Arts
and was recommended
by the adjudicator to compete at the provincial level
in the Manitoba Composition
Competition
Class. In April, she won
the Associated Manitoba
Arts Festival in Winnipeg
and also the Manitoba
Registered Music Teachers Associations Student
ComposerCompetition.
Sarah composed the song
in her head inspired from
the memories of her greatgrandma and her piano
teacher, Eleanor Epp, who
eventually
encouraged
her to write the song on
paper.
Sarah is 17-years-old
and lives in Minnedosa
with her mother, father
and three younger siblings, while attending

high school at MCI. Jasmine MacDonald, Sarahs


mother commented, We
are very proud of Sarah.
She is a great kid. Sarah
has loved music since she
was little. Once she started taking lessons, we never had to tell her to practice. She plays because
she loves it. Its amazing
how much talent she has.
Jasmine added, I think
with kids; you have to
fi gure out what they like,
where their talent is and
just do whatever you can,
as a parent, to encourage
it. Jasmine works an extra Saturday every week so
three of her four children
can take lessons, but says
it is well worth it and added, I sometimes wonder
if I will see Sarahs name
as a composer for a movie
in the future.
