Minnedosa and Sunrise

Credit Unions Announce
Another Clanwilliam
Intention to Merge
SUBMITTED
House Lost To Flames
S unrise and Minnedosa Credit Unions are currently
in discussions to merge operations, effective July 1st,
2020.
The primary objective of the merger is to improve
member service through an expanded geographic area,
increase and improve product offerings, enhance career
opportunities for employees, and drive greater opera-
tional efficiencies and cost savings through economies of
scale.
“As a small, but strong credit union, Minnedosa has
always done its due diligence by executing sound busi-
ness plans and strategies designed to serve our members,
employees and community,” stated Brad Ross, Minnedo-
sa Credit Union General Manager. “To allow us to con-
tinue to serve our communities well into the future the
Board of Directors and I are confident that a merger with
Sunrise Credit Union is the best way to do that.”
Both Minnedosa and Sunrise Credit Unions are
member-owned and community focused. It is these
foundational and co-operative philosophies that bring
these two like-minded organizations together.
“Minnedosa and Sunrise have worked together for
years now, pooling resources together to support re-
gional initiatives. Collaborating on initiatives that bring
benefit to the communities we serve throughout South-
western Manitoba is something we routinely do as part of
the cooperative movement,” said Tim Klassen, President
Photos by Darryl Holyk
and CEO of Sunrise Credit Union. “It would be a great
pleasure to officially welcome Minnedosa Credit Union
to the Sunrise family.” By DARRYL HOLYK
An information meeting will be held on the evening
of October 16th at the Minnedosa Community Confer-
ence Centre and members of both credit unions will have
a chance to vote on the proposed merger. Minnedosa

Legion and Auxiliary Celebrate Eight Decades of Service
By Hillary Miller
T he Hugh Dyer Branch
#138 Legion and the
Minnedosa Legion Ladies
Auxiliary are celebrating
their 80th anniversary this
year. One of the special
commemorative events
was a dinner and dance on
Saturday, September 21st
at the Legion Clubrooms.
The evening, orga-
nized by executives for the
Legion and the Ladies Aux-
iliary, saw a crowd of close
to 60 people who came out
to enjoy a delicious roast
beef dinner and dance to
the sounds of Prairie Fire.
Legion President, Duane
Lacoste, noted that the
Minnedosa Lions Club
members did a fantastic
job preparing food for this
event.
Lacoste gave a quick
speech during the event,
in which he discussed the
past 100 years, noting that
back in 1919 there was a
dance at the armory, in
which 1,000 people at-

Four New Firefighters On Local Brigade
By Hillary Miller
F ollowing the retire-
ment of two longstand-
ing members of Minnedo-
sa’s Fire Department, Mike
Kowal and Ken Morrice,
four new members have
recently joined the ranks.
Tyler Jacobson, Jeremy
Butler, Bill Kemp and Oli-
wia Jozwik are the newest
members of Minnedosa’s
Fire Department.
Earlier this year, a
number of potential can-
didates were interviewed
and these four were suc-
cessful in being chosen to
join the fire department.
Fire Chief, Dean Jordan,
noted that they will be
keeping the applications
for those who were not
selected, in case they are
interested in the future.

Growing Kernels of Hope
By Hillary Miller
T he local Kernels of
Hope group is active
once again this year. One
of the organizers of the
group, Ray Baloun, is hap-
py to report that although
grain prices have taken a
dip this year, “farming is
very profitable when all
your costs are covered.”
He also noted that higher
yields in some of the fields
with peas and wheat will
add up very quickly.     Locally, farmers who
Kernels of Hope began
a few years ago when Ba-
loun attended a Canadian
FoodGrains Bank meet-
ing in Winnipeg, and a
question was posed to the
group about how to involve
more Canadian people in
the cause of ending hunger
worldwide by assisting in
farming to raise crops and
cash in Canada.
Baloun thought, “if I
found one farmer to cus-
tom farm some acres for
our project, that I could
then get town or city peo-
ple to pay the rent and in-
put costs to raise a crop.”
His idea worked, and
“people were very willing
to sponsor the costs of an
acre. It grew and grew – lit-
erally.”
This year, there are
ten farmers in the prai-
ries growing from six to 50

the timing worked out that
now was the right time for
them to join,” mentioned
Jordan.
These four brave indi-
viduals joined the Fire De-
partment in July and have
been busy learning the
ropes. Butler is a full-time
paramedic, so comes to
the department with some
previous fire training. The
remaining new members
must complete their Level
One Fire Training through
the Manitoba Emergency
Services College. This
training has already begun
online and this winter, the
new members will take
part in hands on fire train-
ing. The course takes about
200 hours to complete and
will provide them with the
basic training required to
ensure their safety, as well
as knowledge of what to do
acres, and there are what
Baloun calls “virtual farm-
ers” that are paying the
costs. As a result of this,
Kernels of Hope now raises
about $300,000 on a nor-
mal year, which includes
the matching from Federal
Government. The Fed-
eral Government matches
at a ratio of two to one, to
four to one, depending on
the project that Kernels of
Hope is supporting that
year.
work with Kernels of Hope
include Matt and Holly
Pankratz of Minnedosa,
Neil and Larissa MacDon-
ald of Minnedosa, and Jim
and Sandy Borley of Rapid
City.
This year’s crops in-
clude wheat, canola and
peas. Canada-wide, there
are over 200 traditional
growing projects.
“The Kernels idea is
a nice supplement that
works to connect so many
people that wouldn’t be
aware of, or able to physi-
cally help,” said Baloun,
“I’ve been able to help oth-
er partners of the Canadi-
an FoodGrains Bank begin
similar programs such as
Grow Hope.” He said that
the project is “contagious

This will allow them to get
comfortable with the vari-

Most recently, the new
members joined other
members of the fire de-
partment in a smoke-out
training exercise at a va-
cant house in Bethany.
This allowed the new
members to get first-hand
training in using their
breathing apparatuses and
searching for people in a
smoke-filled building.

By Darryl Holyk
Missing from list…
A sharp-eyed reader pointed out that there was
no mention of plastics in the list of recyclables that ap-
peared in last week’s Tribune. According to Evergreen
Environmental Technologies, plastic containers that
have the triangle recycling symbol accompanied by a
number one, two, four, five or seven, can be included
with curbside recycling. For plastic bottles and con-
tainers, please rinse them out, flatten them and re-
move the lids. Plastic engine oil and pesticide contain-
ers cannot be included with curbside recycling but can
be taken to Evergreen to be properly disposed of.
Tourism Awards….
Congratulations to our two Minnedosa nominees,
Maddy Grant and Farmhouse 50, for their nominations
at last week’s Manitoba Tourism Awards. Although
neither walked away with a win, being nominated is
an honour to be proud of. There were, however, some
regional winners at this year’s award ceremony includ-
ing three from Riding Mountain National Park; Megan
Dudeck (Aspiring Youth), Karly McRae (Award of Dis-
tinction - Ambassador) and Third and Bird Clear Lake
Summer Market (Partnership Award).
Fall into Autumn…
The region is in the full glory of autumn colours
and this past Monday, September 23rd we marked the
first official day of the fall season. While compiling this
week’s Ye Olde Trib column, I spotted the following
item in the September 28th, 1899 edition of The Tri-
bune. Although written by Publisher Dave Cannon 120
years ago, its message is timeless. “The trees are now
divested of their foliage and will soon stand out in all
their winter nakedness. For a week or two, the woods
have presented a most beautiful appearance in their
garb of many colours.”

played by the younger chil-

over the age of ten played
contact rugby. Pentecost
in Minnedosa and Sep-
tember 22nd in Souris.
The final one will be held
in Dauphin on Septem-
ber 29th. The games were
open to children between
the ages of three and 13.
Coming up, the older
players will be entered into
a 7’s tournament, and for
the first time there is a pos-
sibility for a trip to Orlan-
do, Florida next spring. If
successful, they will be giv-
en the chance to compete
in a tournament there, so
long as enough funds are
raised beforehand. Photo submitted

Pentecost, this makes the
Minnedosa Sharks much
more affordable than
many other sports. Pen-
tecost and her husband,
Matt, moved from England
14 years ago, bringing with
them a knowledge of the
sport that is so popular
there.
Having four children
at home, the Pentecosts
noted that the players
from Minnedosa did very
well, and that although
there were referees in at-
tendance, the games were
simply played for the love
of the game, rather than to
win.
Four rugby jambo-

T he Minnedosa Per-
sonal Care Home has
come into some money, by
way of the Minnedosa La-

Representatives of
the group met on the pa-
tio of the Personal Care
Home on the morning of
Wednesday, September
11th to present Lori Birch,
PCH Activities and Adult
Day Program Supervisor,
with a cheque for $1,000.
The cheque is not
meant for medical equip-

but is to go towards vari-
ous activities that are put

Activities that are of-
ten organized by Birch for
the residents include trips
to greenhouses and flower
shows, going out for tea or
lunch, Christmas parties,
and to bring in entertain-
ment acts to the PCH.
Birch was very appre-
ciative to the Ladies Health
Auxiliary for their gener-
ous donation to the Activi-

Judy McFadden, of the
Ladies Health Auxiliary
noted that while many of
their donations go towards

“The activity department
is that special place where

she said.
The Ladies Health

events throughout the
year, including their lun-

canvassing efforts, to help
raise money in order to
make donations such as
this one. Anyone wishing

changed drastically
from what it once was.
Previously, there was a
market for any and all re-

days are gone.
Brian Morton, from

recycling meeting hosted
by the Town of Minnedo-

with the local area and Ev-
ergreen Environmental

goes through approxi-
mately 4,000 tons of recy-
cling per month, which is
processed through a man-
ual sorting system. The
staff works from 7 a.m. un-
til midnight, and they do
everything by hand.
The different types
of materials accepted by
Cascade includes news-
papers, flyers, cardboard
and plastics. However,
they are currently finding

cease to be the case. This
will require some creativity
to find a new home for cer-

Morton stated that the
cardboard and paper items

are backing up because
there is such an abun-

for these is diminishing.

New Paint For Old School

By DARRYL HOLYK sion, it was decided to um’s country schoolhouse
try and determine what a more historic interior ap-

F ollowing the
son closure of the
Minnedosa District Mu-
sea-
seum and Heritage Village,
work has been underway
to freshen up the interior of
the village’s schoolhouse.
For the past few year’s
the museum board has
discussed repainting the
interior of the Havelock
School. The well worn
light yellow and teal colour
scheme that has graced the
classroom walls for many
years is thought to be what
was in the school when it
closed in 1966.
After some discus-
the school’s original inte-
rior colour was when the
school was built in 1910. A
sample of the original wall
colour, a sage green, was
found behind the teacher’s
book cupboard at the front
of the classroom. The orig-
inal trim work would have
been dark stained wood,
but rather than stripping
years of accumulated paint
off the trim, the board
choice a shade of brown to
match the blinds that cov-
er the five large windows in
the school house.
The new, “old” colour
scheme gives the muse-
pearance.
The board hired Liz
Burton to undertake the
painting job and was suc-
cessful in obtaining most
of the needed primer and
paint at no cost through
the Co-op Communities
in Full Colour program.
In addition to this, par-
tial funding to cover other
expenses, including la-
bour, will be covered by
a grant received from the
Minnedosa and District
Foundation last Novem-
ber.

In Loving Memory of
GEORGE MCLEAN
September 27th, 2017
Time speeds on, two years
have passed,
Since death its gloom,
Its shadow cast,
Within our home,
where all seemed bright,
And took from us
a shining light.
We miss that light,
and ever will,
This vacant place
there is none to fill,
Down here we mourn,
but not in vain
For up in heaven,
we will meet again.
We Love you Dad and
miss you always.

OBITUARIES
GRETTA MARETTA
MATILDA TAYLOR
(nee Lund, 1935 – 2019)
On the 15th of Septem-
ber, 2019, our dear Gretta was
called home to be with her Lord
and Saviour, along with those
who have gone before her.
Gretta will be sorely missed by
her husband of 64 years, Mel,
her daughter Lynda (Bill) and
son Ted (Maureen), eight grand-
children (Carolyn, Jennifer, Nicole,
Andrea, Ben, Chris, Lance, Jenna) and
four great grandchildren (Madison,
Emilee, Caleb, Amy). Gretta is survived by son-in-law Lonnie,
sisters Margaret and Janet. She was predeceased by daughter
Shelly, mother Esther and father Theodore.
Gretta was born in Vancouver where she spent her early
childhood. In her early teens, the family moved to Eureka, Cali-
fornia. In her late teens she attended Full Gospel Bible Institute
in Eston, SK where she met the love of her life. After one year
in FGBI, she went home to attend her ailing Mother but love
would not be undone and she married Mel in 1955. With her
husband, Gretta spent a few years in ministry and then they
moved back to California for eight years. She then came with
her husband and family to the Minnedosa area so Mel could
become a Bee Farmer. Gretta served her community within
the Minnedosa Hospital until her retirement. She later moved
to Winnipeg. Gretta was an active member of Eureka Coven-
ant Church, Minnedosa Covenant Church and Faith Covenant
Church.
The family expresses their gratitude to the 4th Floor Family
Medicine group for their stellar care of Mom during the last

DONALD JOHN HNATUK
Suddenly on Septem-
ber 14th, 2019, Don Hnatuk of
Stonewall passed away at home
at the age of 74.  He is sur-
vived by his wife of 47 years,
Pat, daughter Donna (James)
and granddaughter Alexan-
drea of Stonewall, daughter
Stacey (Brad) and grandsons,
Bryston and Kolsen, of Stone-
wall.  Also left to mourn are his
siblings Vicki (Len), Eugene, Mary
Anne, and Terry (Kim).  Uncle Mike
Hnatiuk and Aunt Stella Shewchuk
along with numerous nieces and nephews. 
Don was predeceased by his parents, Peter and Margaret
Hnatuk, in laws, Willie and Mabel Shindruk and other extended
family.
Born in Minnedosa, MB on September 3rd, 1945, Don was
the second oldest sibling.  He grew up in Sandy Lake, MB.  In
the late 60’s he began career in the transport industry, taking
him across Canada and the US.  During his career he worked
in Estherhazy, SK, and drove for Mekechuk, Kominko, Bennett,
Mark Transport, Direct, Merit, and finally Arnold Reimer, until
health issues forced him into retirement.  In 1980, he received
the Mack Million Miles award. His long career and love of Mack
trucks earned him the nickname “Mac Don”.
During this time, he met Pat Shindruk of Elphinstone, MB
and they were married on October 16th, 1971, residing in Win-
nipeg until 1976, when they moved to Stonewall.
Don enjoyed watching sports, especially curling and foot-
ball.  He spent a lot of his leisure time visiting the friends he
made throughout his driving career.
As per Don’s request, cremation has taken place and no
formal service will be held.
