Philanthropy Day Canadian Agriculture

Hall of Fame Inductee
By KAREN MITCHELL

O n Saturday, November 16th the Minnedosa and Dis-

trict Foundation held its sixth annual Philanthropy
Day raising $15,637.25 in donations and receiving $4,000
in matching money from the Winnipeg Foundation
(20%) and Province of Manitoba (20%). The 40% match-
ing funds is for the first $10,000 raised.
The Philanthropy day 24-hour Challenge started in
2014, and since that time the Foundation has brought in
more than $36,000 in donations (not including matching
funds received). For the first three years, the Foundation
only received 20% from the Winnipeg Foundation and in
2017 the Province of Manitoba joined ranks offering an
additional 20% on the first $10,000.
This is the only fundraiser the Foundation holds and
every dollar raised stays in the area. Money raised goes
into an open fund and the interest/return on investment
can be used in order to give back. Each November, the
board of eight members, hold a luncheon to give out
grants to numerous committees and organizations from
Minnedosa and surrounding area to assist with special
projects and events.
In addition to this, there is now a Youth Philanthro-
py Foundation at Minnedosa Collegiate Institute (MCI).
Started in 2017, under the umbrella of the Thomas Sill
Foundation, this group was promised $3,500 each year
for three years, as long at the Minnedosa and District Photo submitted

By KAREN MITCHELL

A t the recent Minnedo-

Minnedosa Fire Depart-
ment received $7,000 to-
wards the purchase of a
gear dryer. The dryer, pur-
chased at Ram Air Gear
Dryer in Brandon, will re-
duce the time it takes to
dry the firefighters gear
from two days to a few
hours and promote more

reduce carcinogens.
“We are excited to add

Upcoming Amalgamation Discussed at LSRCD Meeting
By Cindy Murray
T he upcoming amalga-
mation of three con-
servation districts to form
the Assiniboine West Wa-
tershed District (AWWD)
was a key topic at the Little
Saskatchewan River Con-
servation District (LSRCD)
annual general meeting
held on November 5th in
Basswood.
LSRCD Board Chair
Ray Frey spoke about how
the transition was going in
regards to the formation of
the new watershed which
will consist of the Little
Saskatchewan River, Up-
per Assiniboine, and Lake
of the Prairies Conserva-
tion Districts.
This work has been go-
ing on for the last year with
board members and staff
of the amalgamation part-
ners meeting to develop
the operational framework
for the new district, and
will continue on until The
Modernizing Manitoba’s
Conservation Districts
program comes into effect,
January 2020.
Board members for
AWWD are now in place
and include: Upper Little
Saskatchewan River – Ray
Frey; Lower Little Sas-
katchewan River – Den-
nis Pedersen; Oak River –
Todd Brown; Birdtail Creek
– Rusty Still; Arrow River –
Darcy Oliver; Assiniboine
River – Charles Bertram;
Silver Creek Barry Lowes;
Lake of the Prairies – Jack
Lenderbeck; Shell River –
Glenda Chescu; and Pro-
vincial Appointee –Mike
Shenderevich.
The guest speaker
for the evening was Elvin
Huntinghawk who is the
Band Manager for Rolling
River First Nation (RRFN)
and board member of
LSRCD. Mr. Huntinghawk
presented LSRCD Man-
ager Colleen Cuvelier with
sweet grass along with an
explanation of what it sig-
nifies to his community.
“The sweet grass to us rep-
resents love, kindness and
respect. My wife was telling
me that there are 21 pieces
of grass in the braid. Each
braid has seven pieces of
grass in it.”
Huntinghawk went
on to say “Those seven
pieces represent the seven
teachings we live by as An-
ishinaabe people - love,
kindness, respect, hon-
our, honesty, wisdom and
truth. This is just to show
our appreciation for allow-
ing us to be part of the wa-
ter district.”
In his address, Hunt-
inghawk spoke about the
structure and the demo-
graphics of the Band, and
what the differences are
between municipal gov-
ernments and Band gov-
ernance. “The biggest
difference is that we deal
with everything, we deal
with housing, we deal with
medical problems, we deal
with everything that you
could possibly deal with
as opposed to Municipal
councils who don’t do
those things. We are kind
of a hands-on govern-
ment.”
Rolling River has been
working with Clanwilliam-
Erickson, Harrison Park,
Keeseekoowenin First
Nation, Riding Mountain
National Park, The Riding
Mountain Biosphere Re-
serve, and the Service for
Seniors in Erickson. There
are three agreements that
have been signed by RRFN.
One is for solid waste that
is taken to the land fill that
is operated by Clanwil-
liam-Erickson. They have
a septage disposal agree-
ment with Harrison Park
from the holding tanks
from RRFN residents, and
a snow clearing service
agreement with Clanwil-
liam-Erickson.
The relationship be-
tween all the partners be-
gan is 2014 with an intro-
ductory meeting. “From
there we met a few times,
the more we met, the more
we learned about each
other, and the more we
learned about each other,
the more we understood
that we had the same basic
concerns and the same ba-
sic issues.”
In 2016, the Four
Winds Environmental
Management Agreement
was signed by Rolling
River First Nation, Kees-
eekoowenin First Nation,
Municipality of Clanwil-
Photo submitted
liam-Erickson, and Riding
Mountain National Park
with a commitment to
continue to work together.
Huntinghawk then showed
an excellent video about
how the Four Winds part-
nership was developed,
and the aspirations of the
partnership.
The next speaker was
Dale Timmerman, who is
the watershed planner for
LSRCD. He spoke about
the rich history of Conser-
vation Districts in environ-
mental stewardship in the
province, and the issues of
climate change and global
pollution and how the new
watersheds could man-
age some of the results of
these problems. “Locally
we are not immune to en-
vironmental change and
associated challenges,
whether created afar or in
our own backyard. They
may not be as prominent
in the media spot light, but
The Minnedosa Tribune will be

there will continue to be a
call for change on our ru-
ral agricultural landscapes
by people both within and
beyond our local water-
shed borders.”
Timmerman went on
to say “orchestrating col-
lective action that results
in meaningful change,
especially on some of the
more persistent, long term
and on-going issues, will
be a real challenge.”
He explained that a

This is an Orphanage/Ref-

there are a myriad of areas
to volunteer. Specifically in
Mazatlan, a Website called
“Beyond Beaches” lists a
wide range of places to of-

Whether your passions

We also offered our

So yes, we will re-

F or a brief moment
close your eyes and
channel old memories of
your childhood Christ-
mas’s. Picture your fam-
ily heading out to pick that
perfect tree – whether at
a dealer or heading out to
cut it down yourself, bring-
ing it home, setting it up
and decorating it as Bing
Crosby signs Christmas
classics in the background.
Can you see it? Can you
smell the fresh aroma from
the tree? The giggles of you
or your siblings as they
race to put on more deco-
rations. The look on your
moms face when she pulls
out the decorations you
made for her years prior.
Determination from your
dad to make sure the tree
is set up secure and won’t
topple over. These are what
true memories are made
of. Not what present you
received or didn’t receive,
but of family moments and
everyone being together.

Choosing the Right Christmas Tree
cial trees have become a
convenient and easy way
to continue with family
traditions. Busy times at
work, children’s sports,
family commitments and
just life in general, have
eliminated the time or
ability to fit a real tree into
our holiday plans. Not to
mention the clean-up re-
quired with real trees once
the holidays are behind us.
If however, your fam-
ily still brings back the old-
school feel for your festive
get togethers, and you find
it a bit overwhelming try-
ing to decide which tree
is right for you or you’re
looking to change things
up this year, here is a tree
guide just for you.
Balsam Fir – A popu-
lar Christmas tree choice.
Small to medium sized
and has dense, dark green
flat needles. The needles
also tend to have hints of
shining silvery-white and
are commonly used for
Christmas wreaths and
bouquets. The tree gives off
a spicy Christmas scent.

ATTENTION FARMERS!
Many of our farming members will soon be receiving a
request from MCU to fill out an AGRIPAC which provides the
necessary information to
complete their annual line of credit review. We ask that you
complete the net worth statement as of December 31st or
your corporate year-end and bring in a copy of your 2019
income tax return once it is completed.
If you are running the Microsoft Excel program and are
connected to the internet you can download a computerized
version of the FARMPLAN that will save you countless hours
when completing this statement. This program is available
on the Manitoba Agriculture, Food and Rural Initiatives web
page and is called Farmplan-Financial and Production
Software.
https://www.gov.mb.ca/agriculture/farm-management/
financial-management/pubs/software_farmplan_v2.xls
You will have a permanent record on your computer of your
financial statement that is quickly and
simply updated or changed year after year.
If you have any questions in regard to
completing the AGRIPAC or using the
computer software FARMPLAN, please
contact Terry (204)867-6363, Debbie
(204)867-6360
