Elliot Martens, 15, of Moosomin is an inspiring young curler who studies at McNaughton High School during the day and spends a good portion of her after school hours on the ice.
The grade 10 student is also involved with her high school volleyball team and is a member of her high school’s SRC, and helps with the Little Rockers curling program.

“At provincials, we placed fourth overall in the province,” Martens said. “This was a huge accomplishment for this team because Cloe and I weren’t even seniors yet and we were the young-est team at the event.”
Martens plays regularly in the ladies night league in Moosomin as well, skip-ping a team and staying on top of her game.
Martens is also a member of a com-petitive team that plays in a junior super league in Brandon for teams under the age of 21.
Coached by Cam Thompson of Mary-

team and improve our game.”With an obvious passion for the sport
of curling, Martens says she looks for-ward for the season to come every year, spending most of her spare time on the ice or watching the pros on TV.
“I love curling because it is a sport that I can really use a strategy for and it is almost like playing a big puzzle every time,” Martens said.
“My family have been big curling fans for a long time and I come from a curl-

few mentors that she acknowledges as being instrumental in growing her love for the game.
“My local mentors are my mom and my dad and the rest of the family,” Mar-tens said. “They do so much for me, whether it’s driving me across the prov-ince for a weekend or cheering for me behind the glass.”
Martens has another family mentor who has been a huge inspiration for her—Val Sweeting, the Edmonton curler who skipped Alberta to silver medals in the 2014 and 2015 Scotties Tournament of Hearts.
“One of my biggest inspirations to curling is my cousin, Val Sweeting,” Martens said.
“She has shown me the passion some-one can have for the sport and how far someone can go in the sport. Every once in a while I get the opportunity to talk curling with her.
“She has showed me how much dedi--
ceed in curling.”Martens says her cousin has taught
her that you will start on the bottom and you will have to build your success up.
“I have watched her on TV and gone to watch her in person,” Martens said of Sweeting.
“I have also learned a lot of strategy from watching her and many other people on TV. I’m very lucky to have a professional curler in my family that can help me along my path to becoming just like her!”
Another curler who greatly inspires Martens is Brad Gushie, an Olympic gold medalist (2006 Winter Olympics)
“I love watching Brad Gushie and he’s a really good curler. I have actually had the amazing experience of getting to meet him,” Martens said of her opportu-nity to meet Gushue.
“When you get the chance to meet your favorite athletes, it makes you like them even more,” she says.
Martens spreads her love of the game of curling to the ‘little rockers’ of Mooso-min as well, sharing her techniques with future curlers. This allows her to take a break from training while still doing what she loves. Plus she has the oppor-tunity to help young curlers understand the game, and that’s something she is re-ally enjoying.

Celebrate October todayOctober is more than just about Halloween. It’s a
month for celebration and awareness, filled with celebra-tory weeks and special single days.
A basic Google search will reveal several websites, like HolidayInsights.com, which show the different special days, and sometimes a brief explanation of what each of them are. These are a few of the special events I plan on celebrating in October, courtesy of HolidayInsights.com.
For example, October is National Diabetes Month, a campaign created to help bring awareness to the prob-lems of diabetes. That’s good because it’s also Cookie Month, Seafood Month, and National Pizza Month.
Further contributing to our poor health is National Homemade Cookie Day on the 1st, National Frappe Day on the 4th, and National Angel Food Cake Day on the 10th. It’s also National Dessert Day on the 14th, and Bran-died Fruit Day on the 20th. And let’s not forget National Pumpkin Cheesecake Day on the 21st, World Pasta Day on the 25th, and National Candy Corn Day on the 30th. Plus we have a national holiday encouraging our children to become beggars and mendicants (a fancy word for beg-gar), going door to door and asking for candy.
It’s also National Vegetarian Month, which I’m sure my vegetarian friends would say that if you had followed their incessant nagging—I mean, thoughtful advice—you wouldn’t need National Diabetes Month.
But they’ll be over the moon on National Kale Day, which falls on the 3rd. This is the day when meat eaters everywhere are urged to take all the kale they have in the house and shove it in the garbage disposal before burning the house down.
We owe the vegetarians a little sympathy however, because they have to share their special month with not only Eat Country Ham Month, but both National Gumbo Day and World Egg Day on the 12th and National Bolo-gna Day on the 24th.
While we’re on the subject of food, it’s Moldy Cheese Day on the 9th, although I can’t be sure if this is when we
celebrate blue cheeses like Gorgonzola, Roquefort, and Stilton, or if you just need to clean the forgotten science experiments out of your refrigerator.
Also, it’s Old Farmer’s Day on the 12th, although I don’t know if we’re supposed to eat them. Google wasn’t very clear on the matter.
The second week of October is Pet Peeve Week, where you get to celebrate and grouse about those things that bother you. Like people who drive slow in the left lane. Parents who take their children to rated R movies because there’s a superhero in it. And people who pluralize words with an apostrophe. (Seriously, it’s not DVD’s!)
I’m going to cap off Pet Peeve Week on October 12th, when it’s Moment of Frustration Day. That’s the day I’m going to open my window, stick my head out, and yell, “I’m mad as hell, and I’m not going to take it anymore”
Speaking of Moment of Frustration Day, four days later is Bosses Day. But I repeat myself.
October 17th is Wear Something Gaudy Day, although I haven’t celebrated that particular day for over 20 years. Back before I owned my own business and decided that it was perfectly acceptable to wear t-shirts to work, I was forced by The Man to wear ties. However, said Man never specified the kinds of ties I had to wear, so I wore the brightest, gaudiest, most obnoxious ties I could find, and I had nearly 50 of them of varying colors, designs, and brightness. Some of them were so obnoxious, you could measure them in footcandles.
But then my mother-in-law saved me from this death
by slow hanging during one move, when she accidentally threw them all away. Of course, I forgave her, and just in time too, because the 28th is National Mother-in-Law Day.
Followed on the 29th by National Frankenstein Day.I don’t mean anything by that, of course. I’m just cele-
brating Mischief Night a little early. It falls on October 30.Since this is the month of Halloween, would you be sur-
prised to hear the 31st is Carve a Pumpkin Day? I mean, that’s when I usually do it, considering I’m always pro-crastinating these kinds of things. (I missed Fight Procras-tination Day on September 6th if that tells you anything.) If left to my own devices, we’d decorate our Christmas tree on the 24th, but my wife is really good about that sort of thing, so it gets done about three weeks earlier.
In the U.S., it’s Columbus Day on the 8th, but he’s such a genocidal jackass that many people have taken to cel-ebrating Leif Erikson day on the 9th instead. I think he’s the better explorer to celebrate.
For one thing, Leif Erikson was not a murdering jack-wagon, and for another, Columbus never-not-once actu-ally landed in North America at all. He landed on the is-land of Hispaniola, which is now modern-day Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Plus he did it 490 years after Leif Erikson landed on North America.
Finally, it’s supposedly International Skeptics Day on the 13th, but some of you will have a hard time believ-ing that. You will no doubt follow it up with Well, Ac-tually Day and National What About Week, at least as evidenced by some of the people in my Facebook feed.
Let me encourage those people to instead spend the 19th observing Evaluate Your Life Day.
I’m only kidding of course. October is Sarcasm Month, after all.

Carol Reddekop hosted a birthday party for Dorothy Rohatyn on Sep-tember 21. Five of her friends attend-ed the event.
Congratulations to Hayley Down on winning the Mary Tait scholarship at the Veterinary Medicine Awards in Saskatoon. This award is in recog-nition of outstanding achievement.
year veterinary studies. This scholarship has a monetary
value of $10,700 which will pay for her tuition and student fees. Family members, Angela Down, Gord Luc-ier, Doug Down, Luther and Janice Boehmer and Yvonne Down are very proud of her accomplishments and her work ethic.
Last Saturday afternoon a baby shower was held at the Wawota Unit-ed church to honour Macesm Layne
Saville. He is an infant son of Layne Saville and Katelyn Matsella of Car-lyle.
Word has been received of the passing of Alex Burke of Moosomin. He passed away on September 24 in his 90th year. Sympathy to his many family members in this area.
Sympathy also to the family and friends of Dorothy Wyporowich who passed away at Deer View Lodge on September 20. She was in her 85th year. A graveside service was held on Saturday 29 followed by a reception at the Legion Club Rooms.
On Sunday, September 30 the Wa-wota United Church congregation celebrated a milestone!
Five years after starting the fun-draising and the building of the new sanctuary the mortgage was completely paid off. "The Raise the
Rafters" were instrumental in spear-heading much of the fundraising and baking pies, making jams and jellies, catering to events and serving at tail-gate parties, to name some. In the end it was a great example of coming together and everyone working for a common cause. It is especially heart warming when we realize that sev-eral small churches are closing.
The service was followed by a bar-becue and fellowship.
Madalyn and Ellie Nelson are ex-cited big sisters to Cora Skye Nelson born October 2, weighing 9 lbs 6 oz. Proud parents are Evan and Sheila Nelson and delighted grandparents are Mike and Margaret Nelson all of Prince Albert, Sask. Great-grand-parents are the late George and Jean White of Wawota.

Visits this week included: Sherry Wilson and Wendy Greenbank of Wawota; Bill and Linda Mulligan of Elkhorn, Man; and from Red-vers Wayne Truman with Aunt Jean Vreys; Dallas and Debbie Torus, Maxine Patron and Merle Pittet, with Grace.
Circle of Friends was led last week by Margaret Penner, who re-tired as our cook a year ago. Ralph Burke, our newest resident, brought along his guitar. Margaret, and her backup team of Crystal Veysey and
son Keilan led off the topic, funny memories, with a song. Chrystal re-membered hitting a truck with her dad’s truck. Not so funny! Leora remembered her missing boys, “Playing their way to Grandma’s house.”Alice fell on a friend in a re-volving door! Freda remembered the budgie she gave her lonely brother. It imitated the sound of his electric razor. Ralph Mills had a sleigh load of 10 friends upset into a snowbank on the way to a skating party in Wa-wota. Ruth had been scared by a
bear. Grace’s little brother fell in the snow because she had whistled at the dog. Janet remembered the chil-dren playing “Open Sesame” and tying up the elevators at the Hotel Saskatchewan on her parents’ 50th anniversary.
Janet and the Krukoffs attended Missoula Children’s Theatre at the school. Amazing what they can achieve in one week of practice!
It was a younger group of stu-dents this year, but as always the little ones “stole the show.”

Winter Car Care 2018PREPARE YOUR VEHICLE TODAY!
You are probably very proud of hav-ing bought some of the best winter tires on the market for your car or light truck. You know the value of being more care-ful than sorry, and that is a good way of looking at winter driving. But there is one slight problem: what will you do with the summer tires you have just taken off?
If you are lucky, the tire dealer who has sold you your winter tires will offer a storage service for the summer tire at a reasonable price. You can trust him or her, as most dealers have proper storage space kept at the proper temperature for tires. They also have a good system of keeping track of the tires so that there is very little chance of someone else driv-ing away with them next spring.
On the other hand, if you plan to store your own tires in your garage or in your backyard shed, there are a few little things you should know. First of all, your summer tires should be stacked horizontally, one overlapping the other. They should not be stored standing on
tires mounted on rims too!Next, make sure your summer tires
are not in a highly heated place or in direct contact with sun rays. Both will harm the rubber. And don’t let water reach them, as it might turn into ice and damage the tires. It is not a bad idea to keep them in the bags provided by the tire dealer. Follow these guidelines and your tires ought to still be in good shape next spring!
How to store your summer tiresIt’s no secret that road
salt is terrible for our cars. It does a great job melting ice and keeping roads safe during the winter, but it’s also a major catalyst for rust. Of course, putting your car in storage until the return of warmer days is the best way to keep it safe from winter’s harsh effects, but if that isn’t an option, here are some ways you can help prevent rust from taking hold in the cold:
1. Have your car profes-sionally rustproofed. This is especially recommended if you frequently park in-
doors. Drastic temperature variations, especially com-bined with the humid air in garages, provide rust with the perfect environment to thrive.
2. Slow down and keep your distances. It’s the best way to minimize contact with road debris (e.g. salt, sand, rocks from other cars). Your paint job will thank you!
3. Protect the body. In-
guard (clean it often to avoid an accumulation of road salt, which could scratch the paint), or clear plastic strips to protect the
lower body frame. 4. Wash your car often.
It’s important to clean your vehicle periodically during the winter — even though the results won’t last long! — to get rid of calcium deposits and other dirt. A dirty car is more likely to rust. Make sure to thor-oughly dry everything off, and avoid washing your car when temperatures fall below -10 °C.
5. Apply surface wax. This will protect your paint job, but you’ll need to act fast: the procedure requires out-door temperatures above 10 °C to be successful.

As the seasons change, so do your tire needs. When the cold starts to set in, switching to winter tires will im-prove your vehicle’s traction, stability and braking pow-er on snow-covered or icy roads. However, not all winter tires are the same. Here are a few things to consider be-fore purchasing a new set.
1. Mileage. There’s no point in buying high-end tires if you plan on staying in when the weather turns bad. However, more sophisticated models are a worth-while investment if you plan on doing a lot of driving
during the winter.2. Location. Road conditions vary from location to
location (city, country, highway, etc.). Take this into ac-count when shopping for new tires.
3. Road surface.for snowy conditions — even high-performance models — won’t offer optimal adherence on icy surfaces.
4. Budget. You mostly get what you pay for when it co mes to winter tires, given that price is often a good indicator of performance.
5. Current tires. The winter tires you currently own are a good place to start your research, especially if
Finally, your ideal tires will depend on the type and size of the vehicle you drive. Of course, certain factors — like towing a trailer — can change your current needs. And don’t forget, you can always visit a tire retailer or specialist should you have any questions or if you need advice from the experts.
Choosing the right winter tiresThe days are getting shorter and it’s time to start think-
ing about getting your car or truck winter-ready. The last thing you want is to be left in the cold while out on the roads. Here are ten easy ways to keep your vehicle run-ning smoothly all winter.
1. Install your winter tires and have their pressure checked (don’t forget the spare!)
3. Fill the radiator with a 50/50 blend of antifreeze and water
4. Make sure your windshield wiper blades are in good condition
keep a spare jug in your trunk6. Make sure the heater and defroster are working
properly7. Inspect your vehicle’s headlights, tail lights and
turn signals8. Check the battery for any signs of buildup 9. Lubricate the locks and buy a lock de-icer10. Put together an emergency kit (include a shovel,
tire chains, etc.) and store it in the trunk.And there you have it: your car or truck is now ready
for winter. All that’s left to do before you hit the frozen road is to clear the snow off your vehicle!
Pre-winter inspectionHaving your car inspected by a specialist is a great
way to make sure its vital components — like the brakes, sparkplugs, suspension and transmission — are in good working order. A professional will also be able to spot
major and costly repairs.

You already know how important it is to have the right winter tires installed on your vehicle when the cold weather sets in. But what about your wiper blades? Visibility being of the utmost importance while driving, these vital components are not to be neglected come wintertime.
First off, it’s important to know that you should replace your wiper blades every year, and that you shouldn’t be using the same blades for all seasons.
and ice from accumula ting on your windshield. How-ever, if you leave them on during the summer, sunlight and heat will cause the rubber to deteriorate. Wait until autumn before you install winter wipers. Keeping your summer wipers in your trunk during the winter is also a good idea — you never know when they might come in handy.
You’ll also need to take good care of your wiper blades during the winter. This means defrosting your windshield to free the wipers if they get stuck and removing any ice and snow before you start them — your wi pers aren’t meant to replace your snowbrush. Be careful not to damage the rubber blade when you clean your windshield, and be on the lookout for any signs of wear and tear.
If your wipers start sho wing cracks, making noise or leaving streaks behind, replace them as soon as pos-sible. Worn-out wipers are less ef fective, can compro-mise your visibility and can scratch and damage your windshield. Don’t forget to measure the length of your wipers before purchasing new ones, and be sure to buy
visibility all winter long.

Ever dealt with a dead car battery in the middle of win-ter? Not much fun, is it? Drivers are far better off ensur-ing that their bat-tery is in good shape before the thermometer dips. But how can you tell if your battery needs to be replaced? Here’s what to look out for.
INDICATORS OF AGECar batteries typi-cally last four to six years. One indication that yours is on its last legs is that the interior lights and/or head-lights have gotten dimmer. Another good clue is that your vehicle doesn’t jump to
life when you turn your key in the ignition: instead, your start up is slow, weak or inconsistent. If you’re expe-riencing these problems and your battery is old, it’s a good idea to get it checked
by a licensed tech-nician to see if it needs to be replaced. If your battery is still under four years old, it may just need to be recharged.
LOW VOLTAGERecharge your bat-tery when the volt-age is lower than 12.4 volts. You can check the voltage using a voltmeter or multimeter. If you have a car bat-
tery recharger, you can recharge the battery your-self. Otherwise, get a profes-sional to do it.
Provided this resolves the issue, your battery is likely
the problem return, check the voltage again. If the bat-tery won’t hold a charge, it’s time to get it replaced. If the voltage is within range, it might be an issue with the alternator.
PROBLEMS WITH THE ALTERNA-TORNote that a defective alter-nator has similar secondary effects as a weak battery. For this reason, it can some-times be a good idea to con-sult a mechanic before replacing your battery. This way you’re sure to get a full and accurate diagnostic.

Did You Know?
Winter-specific windshield wiper blades are covered with a flexible rubber sleeve that prevents ice from accumulating. This increases visibility while driving, especially during freezing rain and hail.
Snow removal trucks need to keep their speed below 50 kilometres per hour to be able to clear the roads properly. So be patient when following one of these trucks, and never try to pass it — you don’t know what the roads are like ahead.
Washing a vehicle is one thing; detail-ing it is quite another. With detailing, every tiny corner of the vehicle is washed, dried, waxed and polished-until it looks brand new again.
There are many private businesses around today that will be more than happy to handle this time-consuming task for you-for a fee, of course. Unfortunately, not all of them offer complete detailing. If you really want to give your vehicle the royal treatment, chances are you’ll have to look hard for the right business, or just do the work yourself. It’s not all that hard to do, but it will take the better portion of an
afternoon.Detailing a vehicle starts with a thor-
ough cleaning. A pressure washer can be a great help. Then wipe off the entire vehicle and allow it to dry thoroughly. Follow this up with a new coat of wax. For best results, you should use solid wax that has to be applied by hand. If your vehicle has chrome accessories, be sure to use the right products to really make them shine.
The wheels also deserve some extra attention, partially if you have mag wheels. Cleaning each spoke takes time, but the results are well worth the effort. You can use a special product to make
the sidewalls of your tires sparkle-and it will make all the difference to the overall gleam of your vehicle. When it comes to cleaning all the chrome details and orna-ments, patience is vital!
The downside of all this hard work is that you’ll have to redo the entire opera-tion before you know it (unless you keep your vehicle under a tarp in your garage, that is). But if you’ve ever seen a detailed vehicle, you’ll agree the results are worth it-even if they last for only a few days.

If your car gets stuck on a sheet of ice, KITTY LITTER can come to your rescue! Thanks to its moisture-absorbing properties, litter creates enough traction on the slippery surface for your tires to grip and go.
Because COOL AIR is dryer than warm air, TURNING ON YOUR CAR’S AIR CONDITIONING IS A GOOD WAY TO QUICKLY DEFROST OR DEFOG YOUR WINDOWS IN ANY SEASON. In fact, most recent cars automatically trigger the A/C when the airflow is directed toward the windshield.
IF YOUR CAR STARTS TO SKID OR HYDROPLANE, slowly steer in the same direction as the skid, but don’t look toward it: keep your focus on where you want to be on the road.
NEVER USE YOUR CAR’S CRUISE CONTROL ON A ROAD THAT’S SLIPPERY, whether due to snow, ice or water. Should your back tires start to skid, the system might try to compensate by accelerating, putting you at risk of losing control of the vehicle.
At just 50 km/h, the impact of a crash is comparable to falling from a four-storey building. It also multiplies the weight of everything in the vehicle by at least 20, meaning that a 70-kilogram passenger becomes a 1,400-kilogram projectile. ALWAYS FASTEN YOUR SEAT BELT: it cuts your risk of severe injury and death in half.
TIME OF DAY IS ONE OF THE MAIN RISK FACTORS FOR FALLING ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL. Indeed, nodding off — or coming close to — while driving is more common between midnight and 6 a.m. and between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m., as our metabolism tends to slow down dur-ing these periods.

Should I buy studded winter tires?
There was a time, some 20 or 30 years ago, when many motorists thought that studded winter tires were the best thing since sliced bread. They prob-ably were, back then! Since those days, though, tire companies have de-veloped some of the best performing winter tires we’ve ever seen, even for driving on ice.
Nevertheless, some tires are still being sold with
Scandinavian tire manu-
facturers offer high per-formance winter tires with studs, but then again in those countries, the snow is usually not removed from the asphalt.
So, what is the best so-lution for the roads here? Some of us do have to deal with very icy roads, espe-cially those of us in remote locales; there, studded tires are practical. Some motorists live in urban areas but regularly drive to remote places where roads are always covered
with ice or hard snow. For them, the studded tire is also a real help.
On the other hand, most motorists drive only in ur-ban areas where roads are cleared right down to the asphalt or on major high-ways that are perfectly maintained by public road works. For them, stud-ded tires are probably not the right solution. A good ice-prepared winter tire will likely do the job ad-equately.
If you are thinking about studded tires, be sure to verify with your local au-thorities. In some areas, they are forbidden for lo-cal citizens (although they are tolerated for motorists passing through). Other areas limit studded tires to certain periods of the year. Be sure you can be in compliance with such re-quirements before buying studded tires.
PC : Studded tires can be useful in some situa-tions, but make sure they comply with local laws
Let’s face it: having to clean snow off our car stinks, especially when temperatures drop to arctic levels. It’s a tedious task that can make the best of us long for the warmth, comfort and convenience of having a garage. But do our vehicles feel the same way?
UpsidesOwning a garage does
come with some obvious
starters, you’ll be protecting it from the harsh winter elements—which means less snow brushing and ice scraping for you, and less wear for your car’s paint job. A garage also keeps the oil in your car warmer and less viscous, allowing it to lubricate the engine much faster when you start it.
Potential downsidesHumidity is the biggest problem you’ll
face if you store your car in the garage this winter. Letting the ambient tempera-ture melt the snow, ice and slush off of your car is extremely convenient, but it also produces a lot of moisture. And regrettably, humidity and cars don’t mix. Combined with warm temperatures and salt residue, it speeds up oxidization,
which can cause your car to rust. Fortunately, there are some steps you
can take to prevent this from happen-ing. Avoid sharp temperature variations, which cause condensation, by keeping the temperature in your garage only a few degrees above the freezing point. Proper ventilation will allow your car to dry off faster, thereby lowering the humidity level in your garage. And you can always have your car rustproofed prior to the winter season as an added precaution.
Finally, if you do decide to park your car in the garage during the winter, try to keep the gas tank as full as possible. This will help reduce condensation, which, combined with the drastic change in temperature outside, could cause any moisture in your fuel line to freeze.
Is parking indoors a good idea?

BY SGT SCOTT FEFCHAK, MOOSOMIN RCMP
By the time you read this, much has
changed. The rodeo has come and gone,
Cst Wang is no longer a single man, and
the Saskatchewan Roughriders are feeling
the heat of more than just our prairie sun.
From a police standpoint (because that’s
why you’re reading this) we can only hope
it’s remained as uneventful as the report
you’re about to read for last week. We’ve
had a bit of a lull to our normal summer
business, and I hope I didn’t just jinx it.
WARNINGS AND CHARGES
or charged for the following Inadequate
headlamps x1; Drive a motor vehicle with-
out Registration x1; Disobey Stop Sign x1;
Speeding x4; Fail to produce Driver’s Li-
cence x1; and a possible impaired driver
on Highway 1 last seen near Elkhorn.
When Cst Peters called the complainant to
get more details, it was learned the only
thing actually observed was speeding, but
no plate was obtained. Cst Peters was on
the highway at the time, and did not see
the vehicle reported. Cst Peters also at-
tended a deer vs. vehicle accident in the
early hours of July 5. No harm to anyone
but the deer. There was also a hit and run
at a business in our area which was not
noted until a few days later. There was no
video coverage from the business in that
area. With our psychic in the Himalayan
Mountains on what was described as a
“truth quest,” we’re not able to solve this
one.
SUSPICIOUS PERSON
A suspicious person was reported stand-
ing in the middle of the street in Mooso-
min. We attended the area and spoke to
behind a tree and they did not see this per-
son. Our member also did a patrol nearby
and found nothing. We suspect the person
in question had a cloaking device.
GOOD NEWS, BAD NEWS
There was a report of an individual
“playing around” on Highway 1, passing,
cutting in front and braking. The vehicle
description was provided and it was lo-
cated at a local gas station in Moosomin.
That’s good! Unfortunately for the driver
of this vehicle he was determined to be a
suspended driver. That’s bad. There was
also a warrant out for his arrest, also bad.
Cst Peters arrested him and held him in
custody until a Justice of the Peace re-
leased him, but not before issuing him a
ticket for driving suspended. Normal,
non-dumb driving could have prevented
him from having a close encounter with
police, but we appreciate certain individu-
als who draw attention to themselves. He
plans for a licenced driver to pick up the
vehicle.
REPORT OF ELDER ABUSE
We received a report of possible elder
abuse which we were not able to substan-
tiate. The person in question is known to
be of sound mind, and short of a com-
plaint from the alleged victim, we can’t re-
ally pursue these investigations with any
degree of success.WALLET TURNED IN WITH LOTS OF CASH
A wallet was turned in to a local busi-
ness in Moosomin with a large sum of
called to give us a heads up. The business
was able to track down the owner and re-
unite him with his wallet and cash. Don’t
believe the chronic bad stuff on the news
guys. There is still a ton (dare I say the ma-
jority) of good people out there!
FALSE FIRE ALARM
Panic erupted in our detachment when
Cst Peters was minding his own business
doing police work. He received word
-
ing to the ever reliable alarm system. He
the bench press and noted the bar was hot.
He believes one of your members lifted a
personal best that day, which may have
FALSE ALARMS
Speaking of false alarms, we had a
couple more this week. One was at a lo-
cal business in Moosomin where all was
secure but a suspect was seen in the area.
He would not acknowledge Cst Maxwell
so he left him there enjoying the great out-
doors (see photo). Another alarm was ac-
tivated by cleaners at a local business. We
also had a fake 911 call which was some-
one trying to dial out at a local hotel. Gah.
DRUG DEALER REPORTED
A report of a possible “unlicenced phar-
macist” was submitted, and we deter-
mined there was no indication of current
info provided. We appreciate the assis-
tance, and it’s even helpful to the person
suspected after we determined dispensing
illicit substances didn’t seem to be part of
their life anymore.
SEARCH FOR DOMESTIC VIOLENCE VICTIM
We also made patrols to assist Winni-
peg Police in locating a possible victim
of domestic violence who may have been
heading west by hitchhiking. Patrols were
made but we didn’t locate her.
REPORT OF POSSIBLE SUDDEN DEATH
A report of a possible sudden death
was determined to be in the Carlyle De-
tachment area, and the person apparently
regained consciousness. No involvement
from our unit was needed. Hope the per-
son is okay! PRESENTATION ON INTERNET ACTIVITY
AND CHILD PORNOGRAPHY
Keep this date open! September 27 at
6:30-7ish pm at the Canalta hotel confe
ence room, Cpl Cory Patterson of th
tegrated Child Exploitation U
will be doing a presentat
activity and child
mark that date
can get informed about the problem of
child pornography and learn about some
of the ways you can be informed so your
kids don’t make the same mistakes others
have. Even if your kids are grown up and
moved out, there are other kids in your
life and maybe even grandkids. The inter-
net seems to be here to stay, and trying to
ban the internet the way they used to try
to ban dancing isn’t likely to help. Plan to
come on out and be informed! I’ll see if I
can sneak in a donut expense to sweeten
the deal for you.
THANKS FOR THE HAND!
Shout out this week to Cpl Andy Dol-
man and Cst Randy Mackay who came
in and worked Moosomin detachment
so we could attend Cst Wang’s wedding.
We don’t often get the opportunity to get
together as a group outside of work since
there’s always a need for someone to ride
the horse, so to speak.
It’s funny because this seems to be one
of those places members don’t mind com-
ing back to help out if need be.
members who were previously posted
here jumped at the chance to come back
and work here. Says a lot about the com-
munities in this detachment area.
July 7 was also my two year mark at this
unit. Nobody that can be taken seriously
has tried to kick me out yet, and I’m good
with that. See you next week!
