J
anuary of 2013 marked
the addition of a new
member to the Tanners
Crossing School Commu-
nity. Tammy is only two
years old, in dog years,
which means she would
have already graduated
in human terms, but that
doesnt stop her from
coming to school to read,
which happens to be a fa-
vourite past time of hers.
Tammy really likes com-
ing to school and Tammy
really likes reading, com-
mented a student in Kin-
dergarten.
Tammy is the relative-
ly new TCS therapy dog.
Calm and loveable, she is
a great companion to stu-
dents as they experience
the unconditional love of
a dog. Coming to class one
day out of the six day cycle,
she attends Kindergarten
to Grade Six classes, and
helps with everything from
math to reading. She also
helps children to deal with
emotions and work on
their friendship skills.
Tis program was or-
ganized by Cheryl Beau-
mont, Lindsay Konsorada,
and Heather Emerson-
Proven. Tammy belongs
to Beaumont and was put
through the St. Johns Am-
bulance Terapy Dog Pro-
gram before being intro-
duced to the kids. Tammy
had to pass two diferent
assessments, one in Win-
nipeg and one in Brandon.
During this time, Tammy
was also able to work with
those at the Neepawa Care
Home. Tey wanted to
make sure that she was
easy going, and had ex-
perience working with
people, says Beaumont.
Beaumont is also respon-
sible for keeping Tammy
well groomed and ft. She
accompanies Tammy as
she moves from class to
class.

P
ie, thick cheeseburgers, and friends. Tese are just a
few of the things that come to mind when thinking of
the Clanwilliam Curling Club. Oh, and I guess I shouldnt
forget the curling. Curling has been an instrumental part
of Clanwilliam since it was admitted as a member to the
Manitoba Curling Association in 1914. In fact, curling has
been around Clanwilliam for so long that no one can re-
member the exact date or location of the frst curling rink.
Te Curling rink that you see today was built in 1972.
We are lucky to have it as a sudden gust of wind nearly
destroyed the building before it was even secured to the
ground. When the curling rink was being built, the la-
dies of Clanwilliam formed their own club. Not ones to
let men have all the fun, they used to curl at the rink in
the afternoon. For the women, it was all about cooking,
cleaning and curling! commented Dorothy Syslak.
Now, the rink has been recently renovated to include
a new area added on to the back for guests to eat, talk,
and play games. Te kitchen has also been updated, but
it is still stocked with all my favourites, including home-
made pie that has been donated by members of the com-
munity.

T
he results are in! Te
surveys sent to the res-
idents of Minnedosa, R.M.
of Minto, R.M. of Odanah,
and R.M. of Saskatchewan,
by the Minnedosa and Area
Community Development
Corporation (CDC), have
been collected and tallied.
Te goal of these surveys
was to provide a direction
for the Minnedosa CDC.
I got more comments
that I could imagine, says
Sandra Ingenmey, the
Economic Development
Of cer. Te surveys were
scribbled with sugges-
tions.
T e average return
rate was 8% from the area,
and while Ingenmey was
hoping to have a broader
range of comments, 8% is
still more than the average
return rate of 5% for these
types of surveys. What-
ever you expected didnt
necessarily happen, In-
genmey said. 190 cor-
respondents were adults
aged 60 and under with 89
of those considered chil-
dren. 140 seniors also sent
back their survey.
One of the most sur-
prising results of the sur-
vey contradicted the age
old complaint that people
do not shop local. We
have this negative com-
plaint that nobody shops
locally, and we need more
residents to shop locally.
Well, if we can trust an
above average response
rate, we do (shop locally)!
Te survey showed that
the things people could
not get in Minnedosa were
bought in Brandon. Ingen-
mey speculated that it may
be more of a convenience
to shop in Brandon. By
going to Brandon instead
of Minnedosa, it is time
management for those al-
ready there.
Services in the com-
munity, including health
services, mechanics, and
tourism, were rated good
on average. Te Library
was rated excellent by
most, while restaurant/
hotels were rated poor.
Ingenmey is hoping to see
that perspective change
with the purchasing of
Valley Cache by Subway
and the opening of the
Cornerstone.
Another point of in-
terest uncovered by the
survey is how many peo-
ple volunteer in the com-
munity and the many
diferent areas they volun-
teer in.
Now, the Minnedosa
and Area CDC are ap-
plying for a Partner for
Growth grant worth
$14,000.00. It is a big en-
deavor, but it is perfect af-
ter the survey results, says
Ingenmey. Te CDC is go-
ing to be working with the
Chamber of Commerce to
develop a town-wide mar-
keting strategy with the
hopes of bringing more
people into Minnedosa
and the surrounding area.
Tey are going to use a
multi-media approach
by partnering with CKLQ
and StarFM. Radio adver-
tisements will be created
and chamber members
will be able to buy an
add-on to advertise their
own business. Tere will
also be times where you
have to call in to win. Te
numbers of those who call
will be monitored to see
how many people are lis-
tening during that time.
Print advertisements will
also be co-ordinated with
the Manitoba Community
Newspapers Association
through Te Minnedosa
Tribune. In addition to
that, they will be work-
ing on the Ambassador
Program as well as Bus
Bench Branding in Bran-
don. Tear away maps will
also be available to those
that are new to the com-
munity.
I think, overall, it is
a very positive result. It is
positive in the fact that we
have an active and vibrant
community. Some people
have trouble talking about
the good stuf because the
bad stuf has more colour,
but we have some awe-
some things going on right
here, states Ingenmey.
She reminds us that, Ul-
timately the goal of all of
us that live here is that we
are serving those that con-
tribute and pay taxes. Te
more information people
share, the more we can do
to try and fill the gaps.
A public meeting will
be held next month to
further discuss the results
of the survey.

T
his month, Brandon Mansell won
the Manitoba Cash Open 5 Pin
Bowling Tournament at Rossmere
Lanes. Tirty-two people qualif ed for
the cut-throat competition that took
place on May 11th. If you lost, you were
eliminated. Stakes were high with a
grand prize of $3,500 at the end of the
tournament.
Starting at 9:00 a.m., Brandon de-
feated fve diferent people in a total of
16 games. Going into the fnals strong,
Brandon threw games of 320, 281, and
291. It is easy to get worked up and
angry when competing, Brandon ex-
plained, but I just tell myself to keep
going and to throw the ball. Te sport is
very mental and it is important to stay
motivated, especially before the fnals.
Some of his most dif cult opponents
included Albertas Jenn Baker and Win-
nipegs Riel Willmott.
Brandons average for the weekend
was 253, slightly higher than his 244
eight game qualifying average. Bran-
don will be returning from St. Johns,
on Sunday, June 2nd, after competing
in the Canadian 5 Pin Nationals. Af-
terwards he plans to enjoy the rest of
his summer and maybe participate in
a couple of bowling matches against
friends.

T
he Westman Foot-
ball Club soccer team
features nine girls from
Minnedosa and nine girls
from the Brandon area,
under the age of 14. Tey
are planning to compete
in this years competitive
Premiere Development
League in Winnipeg.
Te Westman Football
Club had its frst game in
Shilo on Saturday, May
25th. Tey won against the
Winnipeg Southend Unit-
ed with a score of 3-0, but
lost their second game on
Sunday, with a score of 4-0,
against the Winnipeg Foot-
ball Club Northwest.
Coach Gabriel Toichoa
has been coaching the
team for about two months
now, beginning with try-
outs. Tey lasted two long
days with the decision be-
ing made by Coach Gabriel
and a few other coaches
belonging to the Manitoba
Soccer Association. From
there, the girls were put
through precision training
at the indoor gym of For-
est high school. Twice a
week, the girls would work
on cardiovascular training,
and ball control. Now they
have been able to move
to the outside feld where
they are working on get-
ting into a system of play-
ing and how to defend the
team. Tis is to make sure
that the girls know their
positions on the team,
says Coach Toichoa.
Tis years team will
compete in three diferent
tournaments, one in Re-
gina and two in Winnipeg.
It is my pleasure to do
this, responded Toichoa,
Hopefully our plan is to
give the girls some expe-
rience and help them to
keep their skills up.

time. Also a member of the
Canadian team, he was not
able to make it to the US,

Yet there is still one more thing that separates
Clanwilliam Curling Club from other rural clubs,
this particular club is thriving. Tere are many clubs
that have not survived throughout the last few years.
Without those willing to take on the commitment,
many clubs have struggled and then fnally puttered
out. So what has made the Clanwilliam Curling Club
outlast so many others? Id like to think it is the dedi-
cation and devotion of its members that have held
the club together for so long. After all, curling is a
team sport.
Tis year, Clanwilliam is getting ready to cel-
ebrate the 100th year that they have been a part of
the Manitoba Curling Association. In July, they have
been planning to hold a street dance and carnival to
raise funds for the club. Tere will be bouncy castle,
hayrides, face painting, Clanwilliams best pie con-
test and a myriad of other games throughout the day.
At night, there will be live music, featuring the Bad
Marleys and Smith & Wesson, and they are planning
to include a tug of war tournament in addition to the
dance.
Clanwilliam Curling Club operates on a volun-
teer basis. To cover operating costs, they host bon-
spiels, raf es, community suppers and trivia nights.
Tey also sell ice and 50/50 tickets at Rockin the
Fields of Minnedosa.
As for me, I am still surprised at all the renova-
tions that have taken place over the past few years,
however, there are a few things that will never change;
a friendly atmosphere, the cheer of the crowd as
someone makes a particularly dif cult shot, and the
best pie Ive ever had!

Y
ou may have noticed in recent months I have not been writing
Viewpoint pieces as frequently as in the past. Tis has been a
huge weight of my shoulders as the Viewpoint was my least favourite
part of this position. I am not a very opinionated person and when I
became Publisher of Te Tribune , my intent was to report what was
happening in our area and to provide space for others to share their
views and opinions.
I do not believe that I am in a position to regularly tell our read-
ers what I think their opinion should be. I may be wrong for thinking
this way but really, who am I to tell you what you should think? Im
certainly no expert or genius. You should each form your own opin-
ions and no one should condemn you for it. No one opinion is right
or wrong. In a perfect world we should all be able to agree to dis-
agree, respect one anothers diferences in opinions and move past
them.
Sadly, I have learned over the past few years that some people
take diferences of opinions very seriously, too seriously. I suppose
I was nave in thinking everyone could put their diferences aside,
respect one another and get along. I was shocked and admittedly
hurt when a few people I have known most of my life stopped talking
to me all because of something they did not agree with appeared in
this newspaper. As many others have experienced, it is not enjoy-
able to face complaints or have others tell you what they think you
have done wrong. It is even more unpleasant when these incidents
occur while you are out in public trying to enjoy a meal or social time
with friends and family or while shopping in a local business. Some
people can let such negative instances simply roll of their back and
move on but I dont seem to be one of them. I wish I was, but Im not.
I will continue to share my opinion from time to time if some-
thing arises that I feel very strongly about. I am not saying that my
opinion will be right; it is just what I personally feel. In all truth it may
be way out in left feld. Tat should be okay and I dont expect every-
one to agree with me. If you dont agree with someones opinion,
accept it and move on.
While some community newspapers do have strong viewpoint
pieces, you may be surprised at how many do not. I have a stack
of weekly newspapers sitting on my desk which do not have regu-
lar viewpoint pieces. In talking with other newspaper industry col-
leagues, I have learned that it is okay to not share my opinion week
after week.
What I do feel strongly about is providing space in Te Tribune
for Letters to the Editor for those individuals who wish to share their
own personal views and opinions with others. Whether I agree with
them or not, as long as it meets our Letters to the Editor policy and
features the writers name, I am more than happy to publish your
submission.
Opinions vary and
that should be okay
An open letter to naysayers,
T
his letter is written after reading many let-
ters of complaint to Council and our town
as well as on the e-Brandon site. I am sick and
tired of hearing nothing but complaints! Per-
haps your time could be better spent by volun-
teering and helping out in your adopted com-
munity!
I was born and raised here and am proud
of our community and our Councils eforts to
keep this town viable. I have spent many hours
volunteering at the arena, baseball felds,
schools, churches and club level, as have a
good number of caring community members.
If we dont care for and work for our town we
will soon only have memories of it!
Te MREC is just one example of trying to
keep us in the loop. Others include the Com-
munity Hall, Golf Course, Beach, Rock Fest,
campground, etc. Te Mayor and Council are
all trying to be pro-active, perhaps you should
try to be more proactive instead of reactive or
maybe move to another community as you can
complain about it and let us work together to
build our town.
Karen Parenteau,
A Proud Minnedosan!
Mayor Orr and Councilors,
W
e have reviewed the Financial Plan for
the Year 2013 and fnd the allocation of
$300,086 to the Arena (MREC) Reserve unac-
ceptable. Tere is no construction starting in the
foreseeable future, and the debenture will not
be approved for some time, indeed the process
has not been started (as far as we know). Te re-
serve already stands at almost three quarters of
a million dollars and this would be more than
enough to pay for any immediate expenses. Also,
you have now decided to have a feasibility study
done and this too will take some time. We ask
that you remove this item from the 2013 budget.
Te budgeted increase in tax revenues from
last year to this is 5.11%. Removing $300,086 from
this would lower the taxes required by 6.95%.
Te net ef ect would be that Minnedosa taxpay-
ers would enjoy a 1.84% reduction in their taxes.
Remember Mayor Orr you said, no increase
in taxes Yet taxes increased last year and now
you are going to increase them again this year. It
is a matter of trust! Surely you dont believe that
removing three hundred thousand dollars from
tax revenues has no efect on the increase.
Tese funds are not needed and will not be
for some time. We implore you to show some re-
spect and goodwill towards Minnedosa taxpay-
ers by removing this $300,086 allocation to the
arena reserve from the 2013 budget.
We look forward to hearing of your sensible
decision.
Concerned Minnedosa Residents
NOTE:
Tis letter was read and signed by a dozen
Minnedosa residents and delivered to the town
of ce May 6th, 2013. It was ignored by council
for the record. I made the same request at the
2012 Financial Plan Meeting. I was ignored for
the record.
All reserves are funded from TAXES.
Tis may be news to MREC supporters, but
Minnedosa taxpayers are the only ones on the
hook, with no cap; there is nothing regional
about that. Husky may not even exist for 20
years. Remember Hiram Walker Distillery, Me-
diplan (RxNorth), AgriSteel.
Yours truly,

Letters to the Editor
H
ello Tribune fans, and
welcome to the Cops
Corner. Tis week were
going to talk police busi-
ness as usual, no surprises
here.
Alright, what have we
been doing? 51 calls for
service lately. Expecting
a rise in calls as summer
progresses, but only 51
to report this time. Calls
ranged from the always
expected animal calls,
mischief, fres, assault, 911
hangups, break and enters,
impaired drivers, and traf-
fc collisions.
Between here and
Neepawa, there were sev-
eral calls for bears in the
last reporting period. I
guess they are passing
through town? Always let
us, or the Department of
Natural Resources know in
order to properly deal with
the matter when it arises.
Another reminder this
week for bike helmets on
anyone who is riding a bike
and is under the age of 18.
Of cers have started to is-
sue warnings, with the in-
ternet test. More tests and
warnings will be given to
frst-time riders, but after
the frst time, tickets will be
issued. Spread the word.
Wear a helmet, and also...
stay of the sidewalks. Ok?
Awesome.
Prior to the rain, f rst
responders were busy with
a few fres when it was dry.
At this point, none of them
are being ruled as arson,
but started due to natural
causes.
Keep an eye out for
volunteer work days for the
Rivers Edge Community
Path Project. Its a great op-
portunity to volunteer in
your home town and make
it a better place. For any
information you are wel-
come to contact myself at
the Detachment and I will
forward you on to some of
the team leaders.
Last, but not least,
speed, cars, and high
priced tickets. Ok lets
see who took the crown
this week. It comes as no
surprise that this weeks
speeder hailed from where
else? My home prov-
ince, Alberta. A province
where everyone is used to
110km/hr highway limits
and where they try and
get away with 130km/hr.
Well here in Manitoba
you cant do that. So this
Alberta male was stopped
by Cst. Sample travelling
132km/hr. He was issued
a ticket worth $469.25 for
not noticing the 100km/hr
posted limits, and remind-
ed that this indeed is not
Alberta, and such speeds
are frowned upon here.
Tere you have it, another
speeder of the week.
All the best to you
this week. See you around
town.

Letters to

Dear Editor,
L
ast weeks article regarding the fnancial plan stated
He (Robert Marks) also shared concerns with the
proposed investment of $30,000 to the irrigation system
at the golf course and suggested this money should come
from the utility account rather than the general fund or
ideally, be funded solely by the golf course when I had
said the exact opposite vis a vis utility and general.
I actually said 30K is projected to be spent on ir-
rigation of the golf course. To the best of my knowledge
the golf course is irrigated by river water. I doubt it even
pays a water bill; I know the Arena doesnt. While the golf
course/curling complex is assessed at 2.2 million,it pays
taxes on only $21,600 of that 2.2 Million assessment. As
a comparison the Neepawa course and clubhouse is as-
sessed at 1.964 millionand is taxable on all its assessed
value. Te golf course contributes less to our tax base
than practically any business in town, yet they operate a
sporting goods store, one just closed on main street, and
a restaurant and bar.
Neepawa and Minnedosa have identical fee and
membership structures. Everyone needs water. A mi-
nority play golf. Irrigating the golf course should not be
funded out of townspeoples water bills. Fund this out of
general not utility or better yet let the golf course pay for
it themselves or borrow the money.
In the end I actually agreed with the expenditureas it
was not about irrigating the golf course, but using the golf
course to reduce phosphorus output of the lagoon going
into the river.
I also believe Mr. Stone was misrepresented. I dont
believe his previous proposal had anything to do with
afordable housing. Tey were lots to be incorporated
within the golf course.

to reface the tennis court area with new two-inch asphalt
to use as a park in the meantime. For this improvement,
they have received one quote of $60,000 and have ap-
proximately 70% of that funding available.

T
he Cornerstone Grill is
back in business with
new owners and a new
zest for life! After opening
on May 13th, the Corner-
stone has been busy. It is
open for lunches Monday
through Friday and for
supper Tursday through
Saturday, even during the
winter months.
New owners Mitch,
Alison, and Scott Burgess
knew that getting the Cor-
ner Stone back into action
wasnt going to be as easy
as it sounds. It took a lot
of hard work and elbow
grease, says Alison. Te
menu has been revamped
and the place has been
brightened up, including a
fresh coat of paint. It now
includes booths for more
privacy and a large dining
and lounge area. Once we
got past the cleaning stage
and into the construction
stage, it became more ex-
citing, Alison continued.
Te restaurant work-
force includes good young
people who are upbeat,
plus two chefs that are
completing or have com-
pleted a degree in the cu-
linary arts. Some of the
more popular dishes from
the past couple weeks in-
clude the Suisse Melt and
hand-battered fsh and
chips.
The community
needs it. I have been in
the restaurant business
for 25 years, and with
Mitch just out of business
school, it was a good op-
portunity, Alison said.
Plans for the patio
out back are scheduled
for this fall.

T
he late snow melt had
many producers con-
cerned that seeding could
be delayed signifcantly
this spring however the
quick melt, reduced run-
of, and dry soils from last
fall resulted in some of the
best seeding conditions we
have experienced in the
last three to four years.
Tese dry soils and a
two week run of relatively
rain free weather has re-
sulted in what has been
for many, a record setting
time frame in the getting
their crop planted. Most
growers will try to target
a seeding progression of
10% of their total acres per
day however this pace is
rarely met because of the
logistics of moving, flling,
smaller felds, and adverse
weather.
One really has to won-
der if this pace of planting
could have been realized
without the use of GPS and
auto steer. Tis technology
has quite simply revolu-
tionized the pace in which
we can complete feld op-
erations. Tere are not
many operators anymore
that will agree to run a unit
without a functioning GPS
and auto steer. Tis rapid
rate of planting and recent
rains has also seen some
very rapid emergence. In
many instances we are
seeing emergence within
f ve to six days of plant-
ing which means we are
likely to see 75-80% of the
crop emerged by the end
of May. Tis is certainly a
positive development that
should position the matu-
rity of most crops for mid
August given a normal
growing season for heat
units.
Tick Season
Ticks are now out in
full force and have become
an annual nuisance that
we need to deal with each
spring. Ticks are a type of
mite that requires blood
from vertebrate hosts for
development. In Manitoba
the life cycle of the most
common American dog
tick begins when the fe-
males lay their eggs in leaf
litter in late spring. Larvae
hatch from the eggs during
the summer and become
dormant for the winter. Te
following spring, the lar-
vae attach to a small mam-
mal or bird host to feed
from. Once fully engorged,
the larvae will drop of the
host and molt to become
nymphs. Tese nymphs
will search for a new host
during the summer, typi-
cally another small mam-
mal but sometimes larger
animals including pets and
people. Te processes of
feeding, leaving the host,
and molting are repeated
resulting in a fully devel-
oped adult tick. Te adults
will then be dormant over
the winter and emerge in
the spring to feed once
again and then lay eggs
completing the life cycle,
In Manitoba we gen-
erally encounter two spe-
cies of ticks. Te frst is
the American dog tick,
also known as the wood
tick. Te other species is
the blacklegged tick, also
known as the deer tick.
Although both of these
species have established
populations in the prov-
ince, the American dog
tick is far more abundant.
Of these two species, in
Manitoba, only the black-
legged tick is of medical
importance. Te black-
legged tick is a known car-
rier of the causative agent
of Lyme disease. In Mani-
toba, the occurrence of
both the blacklegged tick
and Lyme disease is still
relatively rare; however,
surveillance programs are
in place to monitor their
movement,
Te best way to pre-
vent being bitten by a tick
is to minimize exposure to
their environment. When
this is not possible then
one should wear pants
tucked into socks and long
sleeved shirts tucked in at
the waist. In addition one
can apply a DEET based
insect repellent making
you or your pets less desir-
able to ticks. For those who
live in more rural areas, it
is also possible to make
your property less appeal-
ing for ticks by keeping
grasses short minimiz-
ing the ticks mobility.
Re mov i ng t i c ks
should only be done using
a pair of tweezers or per-
haps your fngers. Grasp-
ing the tick at the base of
the skin and gently pulling
it away without twisting or
yanking is the most efec-
tive method. Treating the
bite with an antiseptic as
you would any scrape or
cut will promote healing.
Observe the site for sever-
al days after removal and
if a rash or discomfort oc-
curs then further medical
attention should be pur-
sued.
