On Saturday, June 4th, Waskada Orioles were inducted into the Manitoba Baseball Hall of Fame for the second time. In 2008, the Ori-oles team from 1971-76 was enshrined into the HOF museum in Morden. This year’s small com-munity team, the 1984-89 Orioles, was com-prised of 28 local play-ers, as well as 7 players added from the SWBL for provincial playoffs. Over the six years, the Orioles were Southwest Baseball League Cham-pions five times! They captured the league title in 84, 85, 87, 88, and 89; only losing to Boissevain in 86.
The Orioles also had a successful run in provin-cial playoffs. In 85, they hosted the provincial ìBî tournament (now re-ferred to as the AA) and won their first provincial crown by defeating Ebb and Flow in the final. They won back-to-back titles by defeating Mor-den at the provincials played in Manitou. The Orioles lost in the finals to Clearwater in 1987, but claimed their third
championship in Dau-phin the next year by defeating the Oak River Dodgers. They were also provincial “B” finalists in 89, losing to Winnipeg North.
The Orioles were in-troduced at the HOF ceremonies by Gladwyn Scott, one of the Board of Directors. He out-lined the achievements of the team and then in-troduced each player as they received their HOF trophy. Gladwyn then presented a plaque to the team representative, Tom Sclater, who then gave the reply on behalf of the team.
On Sunday, all indi-vidual and team induct-ees were invited to the Winnipeg Goldeyes Hall of Fame Game at Shaw Park. What an excit-ing game; the Goldeyes scored 3 runs in the bot-tom of the 9th to win 6 – 5. What a great ending to an awesome weekend!
The Orioles would like to thank all those who contributed to our success over these years – parents, wives, family members, umpires, and fans. It truly was a great run. “If we had it to do all over again, we’d do it all over again.”

The Forget-Me-Knots quilt group has been very busy making quilts for Fort McMur-ray. In fact, they have put together 47 beau-tiful creations —the same amount they sent to High River a few years ago. What amaz-ing group of women! Prior to shipment of the quilts, they hosted a show at the Good-lands Community Hall. This event was very well attended. Every-one enjoyed viewing the quilts and topped the evening off with some homemade goodies. Pictured (left to right): Bev Salamon-dra, Heather Meggison, Victoria Morningstar, Jan Gervin, Jackie Le-forte, Leona Williams, Judy Morningstar, Linda Mills and Ginny Andries. Missing: Cher-yl Rushing, Audrey VanSteelandt, Joanne McMechan, Lottie Mc-Gee, Jane Holden and Myrna Teetaert. Hats off to the Goodlands Forget-Me-Knots!
The Forget-Me-Knots quilt show on June 15 was very well attended. The group made a total of 47 quilts to be sent to Fort McMurray.

Another season is underway for the Mani-toba Burrowing Owl Recovery Program. Ev-ery season our program (the owls) face all sorts of challenges. In recent seasons, unpredict-able spring weather has caused major �looding which resulted in the loss of several nests. This season, �looding has not been an issue however
we have had some issues with predators. Preda-tors are generally not an issue for the owls until release pens are taken down. Pens are taken down after three eggs are observed in a nest. After three eggs are laid the fe-male will start incubating them and rarely leaves her burrow. By waiting until three eggs are in the burrow pairs are less likely to abandon the nest after release. In previous seasons, avian predators like hawks and larger owls have been an issue once young owls venture outside the burrow two
weeks after hatch. This season a raccoon was able to pry its way into one of our release pens. Unfortunately, the pair in this pen were predated by this raccoon. As we have cameras outside each burrow entrance we were able to capture pho-tos of the raccoon in the pen and were able to see how the raccoon was able to access the pen. It man-aged to squeeze its body through a slight crack in the doorway. We were all very shocked and sad-dened by this event and have made adjustments to the door and so this
situation will not happen in future seasons.
In happier news, the remaining six pairs have settled nicely into their summer homes. As of June 13, �ive of the six pairs have eggs. Burrow-ing Owls can have up to a dozen eggs per nest and if there is a lot of food available (a lot of insects and small rodents), we expect most of the young to survive.
As well as monitor-ing and feeding the owl’s daily we will also be con-ducting wild Burrowing Owl surveys. We will be surveying pastureland
all around Southwestern Manitoba. These surveys are conducted both at sunrise or sunset, which is when the owls are most active. If an owl is found the landowner will be contacted. If we do happen to �ind a pas-ture that �its Burrowing Owl preferred habitat for nesting (minimal trees, grazed pasture, and natu-ral burrows) we will also contact landowners to discuss options on fur-ther improving their land for Burrowing Owls in-cluding the installation of arti�icial nest burrows.
As always, if you hap-
pen to see or hear a Bur-rowing Owl don’t hesi-tate to call either, Turtle Mountain Conservation District at 204-747-2530, West Souris River Con-servation District at 204-877-3020 or our direct Hoot Line at 204-807-4668. If you are inter-ested in keeping up with our program through so-cial media please check out our Facebook page at The Manitoba Burrowing Owl Recovery Program. If you want to learn more about our program and the Burrowing Owls you can also visit our website at www.mborp.ca.

International Peace Garden located on the Manitoba/North Dakota Border - The Peace Tower, that has been an iconic image for the International Peace Garden (IPG) for over three decades, is slated for demolition this winter due to structural issues.
“In honour of the Tower’s �inal chapter at the Garden, we will have it lit at night from now until September 15,” said Garry Enns, CEO of IPG. “We felt it was important to share the Tower with the public in this way one last time.”
The Tower stands 120 feet high on the 49th Parallel between Canada and the United States and is spectacular at night when lit from below. The area around it is fenced off for safety rea-sons but the public is invited to walk up or drive to the Peace Chapel area to observe it.
“The picnic area near the Game Warden Museum might be one of the best viewing loca-tions for the Tower,” added Enns. “That vantage point is also great for pictures as the fence is not visible.”
The IPG Board of Directors is currently con-ducting an Ideas Competition for concepts to replace the Tower and will share the winning submission later in the summer.
Peace Tower remainslit for fi nal season
The Citizens on Pa-trol Program (COPP), sponsored by Mani-toba Public Insurance, is celebrating its Silver Anniversary this year. There are now 48 ac-tive groups across the province and more than 1,000 volunteers dedi-cated to reducing crime within their commu-nities and neighbour-hoods.
“As a former mem-ber of COPP, I can speak first-hand to the im-portant role that our community volunteers play. This program al-lows residents of their community to take a hands-on approach in helping reduce crime in their neighborhoods,”said the Honourable Ron Schuler, minis-ter of Crown Services. “There’s a real sense of community ownership among COPP volunteers, knowing they are truly making a difference. On COPP’s 25th anniversary, I congratulate all past and current members for their volunteerism in this excellent program.
I also encourage those interested in COPP to take that next step and become involved.”
COPP began in Mani-toba in 1991 when part-nerships were formed with local law enforce-ment and citizens de-siring to make their communities safer. The three main goals of COPP are deterrence, education and aware-ness. Last year COPP volunteers provided nearly 15,000 patrol hours and 23,000 hours of other volunteer ser-vice related to the pro-gram.
“COPP is a grass-roots program specifi-cally designed to serve as a highly visible crime deterrent,” said Ward Keith, vice-president, Business Development & Communications and chief product officer, Manitoba Public Insur-ance. “This community-based crime prevention and education program provides additional eyes and ears for local police agencies. The program has successfully stopped
criminal activities and heightened people’s awareness of public safety.”
COPP volunteers actively raise aware-ness of road safety risks in their communities. Groups have partici-pated in initiatives such as speed-reader board monitoring, auto crime vehicle audits, patrol-ling at school crossing zones, identifying im-paired drivers on the road and conducting seatbelt and cell phone use surveys in conjunc-tion with the RCMP.
“The 25th anniver-sary of COPP is a great opportunity to recog-nize all the volunteers, past and present, and the positive impact they continue to have on our communities,” said C/Supt Scott Kolody, OIC Criminal Operations of the Manitoba RCMP. “I speak on behalf of all of our officers when I say that the partnership we share is not only essen-tial to our Division, but greatly valued.”
In addition to pro-
viding funding for COPP, Manitoba Public Insurance offers co-ordination assistance in co-operation with Manitoba Justice, Mani-toba Housing, the Win-nipeg Police Service, the RCMP, the Brandon Police Service and oth-er municipal police ser-vices.
If someone is inter-ested in joining a COPP group, or starting one in their community, training and equipment are both provided at no charge. Prior to partici-pating in COPP patrols, all new members re-ceive training delivered by one of COPP’s certi-fied trainers, as well as a training manual. In addition, new mem-bers are provided with one-on-one supervision with an experienced member during their first patrols.
More information can be obtained by calling the Provincial Coordi-nator at 204-985-8849, or toll-free at 1-866-326-7792, or visiting citizensonpatrol.mb.ca.

The South Island of New Zealand is known for its scenic landscape, ever changing, iconic and rugged.
Three train journeys on “See Sara’s New Zea-land” trip showcases this scenery.
On the Taieri Gorge Railway from Dunedin to Middlemarch, the train sneaks across the Taieri Plains, climbs into the Taieri Gorge and then meanders along the edge overlooking the ancient Taieri River.
There are 10 tunnels along the way with count-less bridges and viaducts, one of which is the south-ern hemisphere’s largest wrought iron structure but the beauty of the re-gion is front and centre.
Taieri Gorge railway passengers are left won-dering about the deter-mination of the early
pioneer railway men who decided this was the place for a railway - sure-ly there was an easier route? But of course, gold in the region dictated where the railway need-ed to be in 1879. For sure, it would not have been an easy railway to build.
At the head of the rail-way is Middlemarch, a region featured in Peter Jackson’s “The Hobbit”. Maybe avid movie goers will recognize a scene from the movie.
The next train journey for Sara’s group of trav-elers is from Greymouth on the West Coast of the South Island across the mighty Southern Alps through the Canterbury Plains to Christchurch on the east coast.
The TranzAlpine is one of the world’s most famous train journeys and offers travelers thrilling vistas, deep gorges, chiseled al-pine landscapes, native
beech forest and fertile farmland.
The 4 1/2-hour jour-ney is going to challenge photographers - which was is a person supposed to look?
The third train journey is from Christchurch to Picton and is billed as go-ing “along mountainsides and the seaside.”
At times, the Paci�ic Ocean will appear to be lapping at the rail line; at other times, the bush clad mountains will at-tract the eye. On one jour-ney with a previous tour group, the train’s conduc-tor told us to keep an eye out over the Paci�ic as we neared Kaikoura as a pod of whales had been seen earlier. There was no such luck on that trip, but maybe on the next?

You may never find “per-fect” conditions in which to invest, given the nor-mal ups and downs of the financial markets. And yet you can always find oppor-tunities in today’s invest-ment climate — no matter when “today” is — to help you reach your goals for tomorrow.
To give yourself a chance to find good invest-ment opportunities in any market environment, you need to look beyond short-term price fluctuations. If you can develop this type of disciple, you can be-come a better investor. For evidence, look at the bull market from 2002 to 2008.
During this time, we had 13 dips of 5% or more and three “corrections” of 10% or more. Yet despite these short-term drops, the mar-ket, as measured by the S&P/TSX Composite In-dex, rose 165%. Of course, as you’ve no doubt heard, “past performance can’t guarantee future results,” and this is true. Nonethe-less, stocks historically have always trended up, despite frequent “bumps in the road.” And you can use these “bumps” as op-portunities to add stocks and stock-based mutual funds, when appropriate for your situation.
Ultimately, of course, it’s impossible to predict mar-ket fluctuations — so it’s best to prepare for them.
And you can help yourself do just that by taking these steps:
Own the right mix of in-vestments. Some investors think they can avoid the uncertainties and volatili-ty of the investment world by sticking to vehicles such as short-term Guaranteed Investment Certificates (GICs). Yet GICs carry their own type of risks, such as the risk of not providing returns that keep up with inflation. If you’re going to achieve your goals, you can’t avoid growth-ori-ented investments, such as stocks and stock-based mutual funds, that carry some risk to your prin-cipal. But by owning an investment mix — includ-ing bonds, mutual funds,
GICs and domestic and in-ternational stocks — that is suitable for your risk tolerance and time hori-zon, and by holding these investments for the long term, you can help reduce the effects of volatility on your portfolio.
Invest regularly. If you want to build the finan-cial resources you need for a comfortable retire-ment or other goals, you can’t afford to take a “time out” from investing — no matter what’s happening in the markets. Suppose, for example, that you had invested $100,000 10 years ago in a portfolio composed of 35% fixed-income vehicles and 65% equities (35% Canadian stocks and 30% interna-
tional). Today, your invest-ment would be worth over $145,000, even after a de-cade of low returns. But if you had added $1,000 per month to your origi-nal $100,000, your money would have grown to more than $297,000, according to calculations based on various market indexes. In short, it pays to contribute regularly to your Regis-tered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) and other in-vestment accounts, even in down markets. In fact, during downturns, your investment dollars go fur-ther and purchase more shares, putting you in a po-sition for potentially big-
ger gains when the market turns around.
The financial markets will always fluctuate, and their day-to-day move-ments are nearly impos-sible to predict. Yet by looking beyond short-term downturns, owning an appropriate mix of in-vestments and continuing to invest for the long term, you can help avoid un-pleasant surprises — and possibly achieve surpris-ingly pleasant results.

Ownership group gives final approval for construc-tion of downtown project to begin.
Souris, MB, July 5, 2016 - Following last Septem-bers announcement of plans for a multi-storey downtown building, work has progressed to finalize the ownership group, who approved the design and engineering stage of the project. That work is now complete and the owner-ship has given Steel Creek Developers approval to proceed with construction of the new 4 storey resi-dence building and Souris Hotel. The project will be located on the large open lot in downtown Souris on 1st St. S which is the his-torical home of the original Murray Autogroup Dealer-ship and the early King Ed-ward Hotel. Construction is slated to begin as soon as possible.
The active adult resi-dences will be called The Murray Building and the hotel will be named the Souris Hotel. This project brings a new development to downtown Souris and will augment the growing services that Souris pro-vides residents and visi-tors. With well-appointed active adult residence apartments, The Murray Building offers empty nest-ers and retirees a change in lifestyle as they step away from the burden of home ownership to imag-ine a new way of life. This new found freedom al-lows them to enjoy new activities, make new in-vestments in family or cot-tage or travel down south in winter. The spacious comfortable apartments have special personaliza-tion upgrade opportuni-ties to those who sign up in the next couple months. And, everyone will enjoy the heated indoor ground level parking, common room and roof-top deck overlooking the scenic Souris River valley. Event organizers and local busi-nesses will all benefit from the opportunities that will come with the opening of the Souris Hotel. A 29 room mid-scale hotel which pro-vides local accommodation options that will keep visi-tors in Town and expand
the capabilities of Souris to host a broad range of events. This hotel will in-clude a couple of 1 bed-room suites, a fully handi-cap capable room and two pet-friendly rooms. With a creative layout, every room offers a level of privacy and usability to our guests.
Ken Rempel, president and co-owner of Steel Creek Developers is excited about the future.
“Any new development of this type can be a tremen-dous stimulant to the local economy and we anticipate spin-off benefits to the many local business owners in Town,” say Rempel.
Local ownership and strong support by the Town have been key build-ing a strong sustainable project and will be impor-tant as construction begins and is expected to take 12 to 14 months.
Steel Creek Developers is a Saskatchewan and Mani-toba based family run com-pany focusing on active adult apartment buildings and hotels. The company, through partnership with communities and local in-vestors, is intent on creat-ing developments that pro-mote community growth and sustainability.
