MINNEDOSA TOWN COUNCIL
T
he Minnedosa Regional
Events Centre will be mov-
ing forward as a new single sheet
arena, to be built at the MREC
site. Tis is the direction that
Council has been keying in on,
pending receipt of the feasibil-
ity study being conducted by
J. Harper and Associates.
We have now received that
study. Te study addresses a
number of areas. It has been pro-
vided to Te Tribune, and is avail-
able for review on the Discover
Minnedosa website. Anyone
wishing to review it in detail can
do so, however a brief summary
follows:
ON THE NEED
FOR A NEW FACILITY
Recommendation #1: Tat
the Town of Minnedosa con-
struct a new district recreation
centre to replace the aging
Minnedosa Arena and provide
expanded recreation opportu-
nities for the Town of Minnedo-
sa and surrounding district.
Te need to replace the
sixty-seven year old Minnedosa
Arena remains a critical chal-
lenge for the community
Te Minnedosa Arena has
continued to deteriorate to a
point where retroftting or repair
no longer appears to be practi-
cal. Te challenge for the Town
is to generate the necessary pub-
lic and fnancial support to build
a new Minnedosa and District
Recreation Centre.

MREC Downsized and Moving Forward
By JENNIFER PAIGE
L
ess than a year after the
Rapid City Town Of-
fce and Fire Hall were de-
stroyed by fre, construction
is well underway on a new,
larger structure that will be
home to the Towns fre hall.
Te foor has been
poured, the walls are up
and the roof trusses will
be placed next week, said
Rapid City Mayor, Orest Wo-
loski.
Te new structure is
being constructed on the
north side of Main Street,
next to the Rapid City Li-
brary.
We looked at four dif-
ferent sites but selected this
site as it was the best ft for
the size of building and en-
able us to keep the hall on
Main Street, explained Wo-
loski.
Te project has been
tendered to Rapid City
contractor, Leo vanVeen
Carpentry Ltd. Te new
building will include an ad-
ditional vehicle unit as well
as a board room and extra
of ce for Town and rental
use.
Te fre department
has also replaced all of the
emergency response ve-
hicles including a pumper
truck, tanker and ambu-
lance.
Financially we are on
track. We were fortunate in
receiving a number of pri-
vate donations and then of
course had insurance on the
building. Anything further
will come from the Fire De-
partments reserve, added
Woloski.
If all continues on
schedule, the building is
hoped to be ready for use by
mid-October

provide handivan service
to our community every
fourth week. In an efort
to obtain more volunteer
drivers, the Association
ofered an incentive to the
community, businesses
and clubs ofering to give
a charity/organization of
their choice $1,000.00 to
anyone agreeing to be-

for one year. $500.00 pay-
able in the beginning and
the remainder to be paid
after the year is completed.

M
any local seniors
live with the notion
that it is just easier to stay
home than struggle to get
out and about. And while
transportation for the ag-
ing and disabled has its
challenges, the benefts of
getting out and interacting
with the community are a
vital necessity to a healthy
wellbeing.
Recently a number of
local stakeholders opened
the discussion on seniors
transportation issues in
Minnedosa in the hopes of
developing some solutions
and new ideas surround-
ing local transportation
options for the communi-
tys aging residents.
Gina Sylvestre, found-
ing member of TONS
Transportation Options
Network for Seniorsand
Pam McConnell, coordi-
nator for TONS, met with
a concerned group of local
seniors at the 50+ Centre,
to discuss issues surround-
ing rural transportation
and mobility in our com-
munity.
Tere are many is-
sues surrounding trans-
portation for seniors in ru-
ral Manitoba. Te number
one concern is in regard
to fnding transportation
to health appointments,
commented Maxine
Woodcock, resource co-
ordinator with Minnedo-
sa Services to Seniors.
Troughout the meet-
ing many concerns regard-
ing mobility in our own
community were raised,
noting that accessibility for
handi-capped or mobility
impaired citizens is some-
thing that needs to be ad-
dressed.
Something as simple
as a one-inch diference
between the sidewalk and
entry to a building can
make it impossible for a
scooter to enter, or is a
tripping hazard. Business
owners are encouraged to
make entryways safe and
install a ramp to overcome
this problem. Automatic
doors are ideal and allow
hands-free access. Te
Province of Manitoba has
passed a Barrier-Free law
which will help to alleviate
this problem, explained
Sylvestre.
Attendees discussed
the lack of well-marked
sidewalks both in town
and on the beach road.
Crossing lights were men-
tioned as an ideal solution
that would hopefully en-
courage drivers to stop at
those crosswalks.
A few attendees noted
that many streets do not
have sidewalks and many
of the sidewalks in place
are not scooter/wheel-
chair/walker friendly. In
some places, there is a
sharp drop of the end of
the walk.
Mobility in the winter
months was also raised
as a concern. Some facili-
ties and businesses do not
clear the snow and ice
from handicapped parking
stalls and walkways. Many
sidewalks are not cleared,
and this means many with
mobility issues become
isolated.
Discussion was held
in regard to use of our lo-
cal handivan which still
faces the problems of hav-
ing a lack of volunteer driv-
ers and not always being
available. Discussion also
focused on the fact that
many residents are liv-
ing on a fxed income and
cannot pay high prices for
transportation to out-of-
town appointments.
Pam McConnell, Co-
ordinator for TONS (Trans-
portation Options Net-
work for Seniors) referred
to the Parkn Ride Service
in Winnipeg as an option.
McConnell has agreed to
provide more informa-
tion on this service to
Minnedosa and District
Services to Seniors.
From the discussion
at the meeting, it was in-
dicated that there is a clear
need for public clarifca-
tion on whom and when
the handivan is accessible.
Te Handivan board may
also be looking to alter its
constitution in order to
better serve seniors.
In the future the
Handivan will be working
with the TONS coordina-
tors in order to streamline
seniors transportation
options, commented Len
Luker, co-chair of the Han-
di van board.
TONS coordinators
will also continue to work
with the various boards in
Minnedosa to assist them
in learning, and gathering
information on the direc-
tions that can be taken to
open the doors to senior
transportation options.

Recreation Facili-
ties, parks and programs
provide social, environ-
mental and economic
benefits to users and non-
users alike and contrib-
ute to both community
and social development.
Arenas are part of the cul-
tural fabric of Canadian
Communities.
Recommendat i on
#2: That the existing
Minnedosa Arena be
decommissioned and
replaced with a new
Minnedosa and District
Recreation Centre locat-
ed on the grounds desig-
nated for construction of
the MREC Centre on 6th
Avenue N.W.
IMPLEMENTATION
The objective of de-
veloping a Minnedosa
and District Recreation
Centre is to meet a broad-
er range of recreation
needs and serve more
than just indoor ice users.
It is also planned as a re-
gional facility to serve res-
idents living in surround-
ing communities. Due to
the high cost of develop-
ment, the planned facility
may need to be developed
in phases if fundraising
targets are not met in the
short term.
If that were the case,
there are three compo-
nents that could be built
in two or three distinct
phases. Te three compo-
nents are an indoor are-
na, a ftness centre and a
community lounge/multi-
purpose centre.
Te f rst phase would
be the arena. Tere is an
urgent need to replace the
old arena or current users
could be without a conve-
nient indoor ice facility to
serve their needs.
Te ftness facilities
and community lounge
spaces are lower priori-
ties because the co-op ft-
ness centre is a successful
operation in an accept-
able facility that should
continue to be available
over the mid-term future.
T e community lounge
and MPR spaces are seen
as complimentary to the
development of an over-
all complex rather than
stand alone amenities
that are in high demand.
Tey do however play an
important role providing
community recreation
opportunities and social
gathering places for non-
ice users.
Part of the f tness fa-
cilities contemplated is
a walking track. Council
believes this should be in-
corporated into phase one
if at all possible.
Council also believes
that a design build ap-
proach should be pursued
such that we will not be re-
quired to designate funds
for plans as was previously
the case.
CONSTRUCTION COSTS
Harper and Asso-
ciates have developed
a magnitude of costs
which attempt to account
for such things as con-
struction delays, infation,
material costs etc. Details
are available in the report.
Te totals are: Arena
enclosure: $9,308,886,
Fitness Centre/Track
$2,208,368, Community
Lounge/MPR $636,543.
Total: $12,153,797.
FINANCING
There is a detailed
discussion of financing
in the report. It needs to
be noted that when ex-
amining the impact on
taxes, one thing that is not
taken into account is the
$300,000/year the Town
has been putting into re-
serve since 2009, each
year except 2014 when
there was a temporary re-
duction to $100,000. That
$300,000 will significantly
mitigate any impact.
The report notes
that normally financing
comes from the three lev-
els of government, mu-
nicipal, provincial and
federal, and from private
and corporate donations.
There has been prec-
edent for the two senior
levels of government to
each contribute 1/3 of the
cost. However there is
also precedent for less, to
the extent that we should
not rely on that.
At the Federal level:
At the moment as noted
in the report, there do
not appear to be any di-
rect federal government
recreation infrastructure
funding programs avail-
able on a cost shared ba-
sis for local governments.
The Gas Tax fund and
the incremental GST re-
bate for Municipalities
has been expanded to
include recreation, tour-
ism, culture and sport. In
Minnedosa, gas tax fund-
ing is relatively small and
is currently committed to
other infrastructure proj-
ects.
The limited avail-
ability of federal infra-
structure funding for rec-
reation seriously impacts
the feasibility of major
capital projects and puts
more of the responsibil-
ity on local governments
that have limited flexibili-
ty and resources on which
to draw.
From the Towns
point of view, we would
hope that this current di-
rection of the federal gov-
ernment will not contin-
ue and that at some point
in the near future, condi-
tions will once again per-
mit funding in the area of
recreation infrastructure.
At the Provincial lev-
el: There are programs in
place. The Town needs
to work with the Province
to seek out the maximum
that could be available.
At the Municipal lev-
el: Funding comes from
three sources: Private
and corporate as well as
in kind donations, al-
location of town funds to
a reserve and borrowing
through a debenture.
At the moment over
$2.5 million has been
raised through donations
and through the reserve.
The amount required
to debenture will be de-
pendent upon the level of
funding from the senior
levels of government and
upon the amount that can
be finally raised through
donations. Of course we
would hope to keep the
debenture number as low
as possible.
MOVING FORWARD
Harper and As-
sociates states: The
Minnedosa and District
Recreation Centre Fea-
sibility Study recom-
mends that if there is a
clear indication the Town
can achieve its funding
goals, it should proceed
with the phase one arena
component of the proj-
ect, decommission the
Minnedosa Arena and
develop the new facility
on the MREC site.
Now that we have
this feasibility study with
its recommendations, we
can proceed.
As with most things,
money is going to be the
main determinant of
what can be done.
We will approach the
Province through the
Manitoba Building Fund
and then we will start
the debenture process
through the Manitoba
Municipal Board.
At the same time we
will keep our ear to the
ground for any rumblings
that might signal a shift in
approach by the federal
government.
Once these factors
are firmed up, and we
have a better idea of how
much additional funding
is required, we will re-
start the local fundraising
campaign.
Hopefully we can get
construction under way
sooner rather than later,
and build a facility that
we can all be proud of and
that will meet our needs
for years to come.
ITS BEEN QUITE
A JOURNEY!
When the project was
first begun, there was a
vision for a two-sheet fa-
cility. It was intended to
bring many benefits to
the community. It would
be at a ready to build
stage so that there would
be no impediments when
government funding be-
came available. To that
end plans were devel-
oped and were ready to
go.
Unfortunately, things
changed, and the vision
came to be seen as not
feasible. A number of
people tried very hard to
do something good for
the community, and at
that level, it just didnt
work out.
So where are we now?
We have a feasibility study
that directs and supports
us as noted above. That
study will be a pivotal
document in our quest to
proceed.
We have raised over
2.5 million dollars toward
this project. We hope
that once we have nailed
down what were building
and for how much, a re-
surgence in support will
be forthcoming.
If you have a look at
the grounds, youll see
that soccer and baseball
have done a phenomenal
amount of work on their
respective areas. Rodeo
and the Agriculture Soci-
ety will be upgrading as
well. We can see that this
is going to develop into a
multi-purpose regional
facility that we can all be
proud of.
We extend our thanks
to all those who have con-
tributed to this project,
and in particular to the
MREC committees that
have worked so hard to
move it forward.
Lets continue our
push to get this done.
Lets stay behind it and
support it, and get it done
as well and as quickly as
we reasonably can.
I am interested in providing Palliative
Care. I have 30 years experience and
have taken the Palliative Care course.

T
wo local ladies were
honoured recently
by the Provincial Coun-
cil of Women of Manitoba
(PCWM) Inc. During the
eighth annual Celebrat-
ing Women Gala held
on July 8th in Winnipeg,
Susan Proven and Enid
Clark were honoured for
their work, volunteerism
and leadership.
Susan Proven
Susan is a Professional
home Economist and
member of the Manitoba
Association of Home Econ-
omists (MAHE). She is ac-
tive with MAHE programs
and events in southwest
Manitoba, most recently
as a judge for the MAHE
award to young scientists
at the Western Manitoba
Science Fair.
Since coming to a farm
near Minnedosa from the
city 40 years ago, Susan has
worked in paid and unpaid
positions in almost every
community in Manitoba.
In the 80s she did
member recruitment for
the National Farmers
Union (FNU) in Manitoba
communities and then
met and worked with farm
women across Canada on
NFU projects of interest to
farm women.
From 1992 until 2004,
Susan worked for CBC
Radio Noon as a freelance
documentary broadcaster,
producing programs on
individuals or groups in
small rural communities
who initiated new ideas
with limited resources.
In 2006, at the request
of the Minister of Agricul-
ture, Rosann Wowchuk,
Susan facilitated consulta-
tions in rural and northern
communities to explore
adding value to Manito-
bas natural, cultural and
physical resources. Te
result was a report with
recommendations iden-
tifying opportunities and
addressing barriers that
hinder these opportuni-
ties.
In 2007, she moderat-
ed a panel at the Enterpris-
ing Womens Conference
which showcased farm
women as entrepreneurs.
In 2009 Susan spoke
at travel Manitobas Tour-
ism Conference, on im-
plementing sustainable
practices to green your
business. Her own busi-
ness, Fairmount Bed and
Breakfast, was nominat-
ed for a Manitoba Tour-
ism Award in Sustainable
Tourism.
For the last f ve years,
Susan has been teaching
food preservation skills
to people in communities
within the Prairie Moun-
tain and Central Health
Authorities.
As a member of the
Manitoba Public Utilities
Board she chairs water and
sewer rate hearings, help-
ing local governments,
mostly in small rural com-
munities, meet the de-
mands of their customers
for safe and adequate wa-
ter and sustainable utility
operations.
In her community of
Minnedosa, she serves on
the board of the Minnedo-
sa Museum and Heritage
Village.
Enid Clark Born
and raised in Newdale,
MB, Enid developed inter-
ests that served as build-
ing blocks for her life-
time sports, music and
church. Graduating as an
RN from Winnipeg Gen-
eral, her career began at
Minnedosa Hospital. After
her marriage to Gordon,
she became an active farm
wife, mother to David and
Donna, Head Leader in
the 4-H Club, a competi-
tive curler and involved in
many activities of a small
community. She returned
to her nursing career at
Minnedosa Personal Care
Home, retiring after 20
years.
Enid gave much to her
community. For 25 years
she organized the com-
munity cancer canvass.
Te Meals for Seniors Pro-
gram which she instigated
allowed seniors to have
nutritious meals enabling
them to remain in their
own homes longer. Enid
helped draft a constitution
for the new RHA.
Performing arts are
also a passion. Enid has
been a part of the Strath-
clair Dinner Chorus 1995-
2014 and the Strathclair
Drama Club since 1996.
Womens Institute is
an important personal fo-
cus. She joined the New-
dale Ravens Glen Club
serving as President and
served as SWA Treasurer
and Provincial President
2008-2010. She took the
organization through its
100 year celebrations and
now serves as government
appointed representative.
Her leadership in MWI is
much appreciated.
Church service, writ-
ing the weekly Newdale
News, the 125th Celebra-
tions committee, and
Newdale Historical So-
ciety all beneftted from
Enids skill. Her profes-
sionalism, energy and car-
ing are hallmarks of her
service to her family, com-
munity and organizations
like MWI.

A
number of local Spe-
cial Olympics five-
pin bowling athletes have
returned home with a few
medals in tow after an ex-
citing trip to Vancouver
for the National Summer
Games.
Te Summer Games
were held at the Univer-
sity of British Columbia in
Vancouver on July 8th to
July 12th. A thousand and
three hundred athletes
were in attendance along
with 700 coaches and
team support members.
Manitoba Special
Olympics had 91 partici-
pating athletes in 11 dif-
ferent sports and brought
home 76 medals29 gold,
20 silver and 27 bronze.
We had an awesome
time. Te athletes really
enjoyed the experience.
It was a lot of activity in a
short period of time but
they all did really well and
even came home with a
few medals, commented
Trudy Adamson, Special
Olympics volunteer coach
who attended the games.
T e Mens fve-pin
bowling team claimed the
gold, while both the mixed
and ladies teams brought
home bronze.
Eight out of fifteen of
our athletes came home
with two medals from
the team event as well
as the individual events.
They all had a great time
just being involved but it
is always more exciting
for them when they win,
added Adamson.
Members of the lo-
cal group, Lucy Cassels
received a silver medal in
the individual event with
a score of +76. Dwayne
Petch also earned a silver
medal with a score of +77.
Athletes in atten-
dance were also able to
take part in some extra ac-
tivities including a dance
and a health living expo
where health specialists
were available for free
consultations.
With the bowling sea-
son wrapped up for now,
Adamson will be running
a summer Special Olym-
pics golf program Tues-
day evenings until the
end of August.

C
rops throughout much
of the South Parkland
region continued to show
signifcant improvement
as a result of the continued
mild and somewhat drier
weather experienced over
this past week.
Rainfall amounts ear-
lier in the week throughout
much of the region were
variable ranging from 5-15
mm and were generally
viewed as favourable for
crop development.
Temperatures in par-
ticular continue to be ideal
for crops that are now well
into the critical reproduc-
tive and flling stage of
their development.
Although the poten-
tial for 2013 average yields
has been lost due to the
excess moisture and food-
ed acres, those with crops
remaining and who have
managed disease are now
anticipating at least aver-
age and perhaps in the
case of wheat acres even
above average yields.
2014 Manitoba
Seeded Acres
Te 2014 Manitoba
Seeded Acres were re-
leased by MASC late last
week and with it the mag-
nitude and extent of the
unseeded acres were real-
ized with drops in all the
major cereals and canola
acres.
Te too-wet-to-seed
acres were reported to be
at 980,000 acres. Crops
with increases were led by
dry beans and soybeans
coming in at 155 and 125%
of 2013 acres with soy-
beans setting a new record
for acreage at 1.3 million
acres.
Te continued surge
in soybean acres has been
mainly due to their perfor-
mance under conditions
of excess moisture and
their continued level of
proftability given average
yields.
Other crops with in-
creases included fax, sun-
fowers, feld peas and pe-
rennial rye grass.
Field Pea Production
Growers of feld peas
continue to be frustrated
as to why and when their
crops might succumb to
root rot. A rotation of one
in four or one in fve years
no longer seems suf cient
to keep this devastating
disease in check.
Seed treatments seem
to be simply over-whelmed
by the disease under cool
wet soil conditions. Te
disease is frst initiated at
the seedling stage of de-
velopment under condi-
tions of excess moisture
and cool soils especially in
felds with a history of feld
pea production.
Te more cycles and
frequency of feld peas in
the rotation the greater
seems to be the level of the
root rot complex in the soil.
Te root rot frst seems to
take hold when the excess
moisture inhibits or pre-
vents proper nodulation of
the pea plant.
Complicating matters
at this stage is the neces-
sary application of her-
bicides for weed control
which further stresses the
plant and further inhibits
nodule development. Te
lack of nodulation results
in a nitrogen defciency
and a weak stressed plant
unable to grow through the
root disease and recover
from the herbicide appli-
cation.
At this point rotations
may need to be length-
ened to perhaps one in six
and perhaps even one in
eight years before the level
of this particular root rot
complex drops to an ac-
ceptable level.
Ultimately longer rota-
tions, improved seed treat-
ments and drier conditions
at emergence through to
herbicide timing are go-
ing to be needed for more
stable and predictable pea
production.
Wheat Midge Update
Since we have now
surpassed the 800 GDD
throughout much of South
Parkland the emergence
of the female wheat midge
will now be peaking. Te
level of Macroglenes pen-
etrans, the main parasitoid
of wheat midge should also
be peaking as well. Tere
should be greater than 90%
emergence of Macroglenes
penetrans at peak emer-
gence of the female wheat
midge. Data from the Ca-
nadian Grain Commission
seems to validate this in-
formation in that although
Manitoba has only minimal
insecticidal spraying for
wheat midge when com-
pared to Saskatchewan our
downgrading due to wheat
midge is at similar levels.
Bleached Canada
Thistles
Te good news in re-
gards to cool wet springs is
that it increases the chanc-
es of a disease infecting
and injuring Canada this-
tle.
Te most common is
a disease called Pseudo-
monas syringae pv. tagetis,
PST for short. Tis disease
is a bacteria that naturally
occurs in the eastern prai-
ries which infects Canada
thistle shoots. While it can
also infect many other
broadleaf species in the
sunfower family, it is most
commonly found on Cana-
da thistle.
Symptoms of infection
are a distinct bleached or
white color of the shoot.
Infected shoots have slow-
er development and can
increase the mortality of
Canada thistle popula-
tions.
Te severity of the in-
fection is dependent upon
how virulent is the strain of
PST.
Ag Report... 980,000 Acres Too Wet To Seed
I
love cooking with fresh local ingredients and there
is no better time of year than the summer to do this.
Many restaurants will also switch up their menus to cel-
ebrate local harvests as well. One of my favourite new
menu selections (when we do go out) is the Prawn and
Brie Flatbread at my local White Spot Restaurant here in
British Columbia. I have contacted them and they were
honoured to share the recipe with me from their Cel-
ebrate BC summer menu, and today I pass this on to you.
I hope you enjoy it!
Wherever you live, I encourage you to visit neigh-
bourhood restaurants that embrace the local produce/
ingredients in your area.
Prawn and Brie Flatbread
Recipe courtesy of White Spot Executive Chef, Dan-
ny Markowicz, has been modifed for you to be able to
enjoy at home. Makes 4 fatbreads
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tsp garlic, fnely chopped
1 tsp chili fakes
6 slices bacon, 1/4 inch pieces
8 pieces baby zucchini, trimmed and cut in half
lengthwise
1/2 tsp white balsamic vinegar
1/2 tsp olive oil
Pinch of salt and freshly cracked black pepper
16 prawns, cut in half lengthwise
1/2 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp olive oil
Pinch of freshly cracked black pepper
4 Flatbreads (Naan bread works great, or your
favourite pizza crust)
16 slices Brie, thinly sliced
1/2 cup Mozzarella, shredded
6 Heirloom Tomatoes, cut in half
Heat 1/2 cup light olive oil over medium heat and
add 1 tsp chopped garlic and chili fakes. When garlic is
just starting to turn golden, remove from the heat and al-
low to cool. Set this chili oil aside.
Add the bacon pieces to a pan and slowly cook over
medium heat. Stir occasionally to ensure it doesnt clump
together. When the bacon is crispy around the edges, re-
move from heat, cool and drain excess fat. Set these ba-
con bits aside.
Dress the zucchini with the white balsamic vinegar
and 1/2 tsp olive oil, and a pinch of salt and fresh cracked
black pepper. BBQ over high heat, placing them fat side
down. Tis will give nice charred marks and will look and
taste great on your fatbread. Set aside this as well.
Season the prawns with a touch of oil, lemon juice
and fresh cracked black pepper. Set aside.
To assemble, lay the fatbread bases out on a clean
countertop, and add 1 tbsp. of reserved chili oil to each
one, spreading the oil out right to the edges. Add the
sliced brie and mozzarella cheese, followed by the re-
served bacon bits, trying to spread the ingredients out
evenly. Arrange the reserved grilled zucchini overtop,
showing of the nice grill marks. Add the reserved sea-
soned/raw prawns, but dont overlap them so they cook
evenly. Finally, cut some small beautiful local heirloom
tomatoes in half and place them attractively over the top.
If you like, a little salt and pepper on the tomatoes makes
them sing... Bake at 400F for 6-8 minutes until the fat-
bread base is crisp, the prawns are fully cooked and the
cheese is melted.

Only One Mother
You can only have one
mother,
patient, kind and true,
no other friend in
all the world,
will ever be the same to you.
When other friends
forsake you,
to your mother you will turn,
for all her loving kindness,
she asks nothing in return,
as we look upon
her picture,
Sweet memories we recall,
of a face so full of sunshine,
and a smile for one and all,
Sweet Jesus, take this message,
to our dear mother up above,
tell her how much we miss her,
and give her all our love.
Love Always, Joan, Keith,

Darren William Gusdal
December th,
- June st,
It is with a heavy heart that I announce the passing of my partner
of 36 years at the Brandon Palliative Care Centre. Darren was born
to Leonard and Doris Gusdal. He was raised in Winnipeg, Bran-
don and Erickson, Manitoba. He was predeceased by his father
Leonard in 2000.
Darrens passion was sports. He started hockey at the late age of
10. Although many of his friends had skated at a much earlier age,
Darrens speed on ice was something that amazed others and that
he was extremely proud of. He played midget hockey in Minnedosa,
where he met many of his lifelong friends. His hockey career pro-
gressed to the Brandon Travelers (1977) and the following season he
joined the Brandon Wheat Kings (1978-1980). He was very proud that he
was part of the Wheaties 1979 run to the Memorial Cup fnal. In 2007 the team was inducted into
the Manitoba Sports Hall of Fame.
After the Wheat Kings Darren attended Brandon University and was a member of the universitys
hockey team (1980-1983), during that time the team advanced to the CIAU fnals. He graduated
from BU in 1984 with a Bachelor of Education and began his teaching career with the Rolling
River School Division.
Darren was a complete athlete. Besides hockey he loved baseball. In 1973 he represented Mani-
toba in the base running competition at the Montreal Olympic Stadium. In later years he won the
1983 senior batting title and rookie of the year awards with the Elphinstone Outlaws.
In 1992 Darren sought a change from teaching and a new challenge presented itself, managing
Riding Mountain Conference Centre and Camp Wannakumbac. Darren and Janet recently cele-
brated 20 years of management, something he was incredibly proud of. His life revolved around
camp. During his years at camp he was able to add three new buildings while maintaining qual-
ity facilities for all camp clients. Darren had an impact on all that worked here especially during
summer camp times. Many camp counselors, kitchen staf, medical staf, secretaries and main-
tenance workers came through over his 20 years. Many had a cofee with him, one of Darrens
favourite things while sitting on the deck overlooking beautiful Clear Lake.
One of Darrens loves was boating and water skiing on Clear Lake. Darren took every opportun-
ity to be out on the lake in his boat whenever he could. Darrens winter passion was downhill
skiing, a sport he enjoyed with his children. His last skiing adventure was just this past January
with his brother in law and nephew in Jasper National Park. When he wanted to escape from the
cold, he looked to Maui to spend treasured times with both family and friends.
Darren believed in community service. He actively participated on the Board of Directors for
the Erickson Credit Union. Prior to that, he was an active member on the Onanole Community
Recreation Centre board.
Darren is survived by his wife Janet (Lewandoski) who he met in 1978 at Clear Lake and married
on July 20th, 1985. Tey have 2 children; Mitchell and Melissa.
A private family service was held June 28th. A memorial service to celebrate Darrens life will be
held at Camp Wannakumbac on Saturday August 23rd at 2:00 p.m.
Donations in Darrens memory can be made to the Camp Wannakumbac Legacy Fund, Box 125,
Onanole, MB. R0J1N0
