Figure Skating Is Hextalls Passion

By HILLARY MILLER took first place. She notes at the NHK Trophy in To- days before her 20th birth-

D iane Hextall (nee Ogi-

bowski), one of the
many talented athletes to
come from Minnedosa,
was recently in town as a
speaker at the 20th annual
Minnedosa Sports Dinner.
Diane started skating
later than most figure skat-
ers, nearing the age of ten,
while many start at the age
of four or five. She believes
her passion for the sport
came from her first sum-
mer school figure skating
coach, Trudy Hickling.
She taught me to really
love skating by having fun.
You learn by having fun,
said Hextall.
Growing up on the
Ogibowski family farm, Di-
ane spent so much of her
youth at the local arena,
competing with the hock-
ey teams for ice time. She
found the school system
in Minnedosa to be very
supportive of her skating
career and is grateful to
the Town of Minnedosa
for sponsoring her skating
in the late 1970s and early
1980s.
Her first competitive
skating event was the Can-
ada Winter Games in Bran-
don in 1979, where she

a blur to her. After this,
Diane did some training
in Winnipeg, Toronto and
Vancouver. I had coach-
es everywhere, but Trudy
Hickling was my advocate,
recalls Hextall. When I
skated, there was an en-
dorphin rush all the time,
so much adrenaline, and
setting goals and achiev-
ing them, doing spins and
jumps, I dont know what
else to compare it to.
She recalls the nation-
al titles that she competed
in, noting that she excelled
at freestyling. I was more
athletic, I was wired that
way, and I think I didnt
have the fear to try the tri-
ples.
From 1979 to 1985,
Diane was a national and
international competitor
representing Canada. She
competed at the Cana-
dian National Champion
Pre-Novice, Novice and
Junior categories between
1979 and 1981, earning
the championship titles
for Novice in 1980 and Ju-
nior in 1981. The follow-
ing year, at the Canadian
National Seniors in Bran-
don she came in fourth
place. From 1982 to 1985,
M TC R EG I O N A L TO U R
The challenges she
faced during her competi-
tive years were getting ice
time, and being away from
her family farm. She noted
that hockey players often
received the best ice time,
and her mother, Marion,
would often drive her in
and help her set things up
on the ice when she could
get ice time. This required
a lot of money spent on gas,
which made it financially
difficult for her family. She
recalls being on the ice in
a t-shirt and shorts, while
some of the other skaters
wore tights or dresses. It
was difficult for her family
to have two of its members
away so often, but they
picked up the slack and got
done whatever needed do-
ing. She is very grateful to
them, and how supportive

Once they were mar-

marking the end of Dianes
skating career. However,
after the birth of their third
child, Diane entered one
last figure skating compe-
tition, where she took sixth
place in Orlando, Florida.
Since then, she has spent
her time coaching figure
skating when her schedule
allows it. Its my love, she
said, I love to work with

The Importance of Shopping Local
Cooking
With
CHEF DEZ
H ow well do you know your local butcher, baker,
or candlestick maker? I realize that local candle-
stick makers are less prevalent than they use to be,
but if you had one in your community they would be
just as important as your other local merchants. We
have all heard that shopping local is important to the
economy and the environment, but do we know ex-
actly why? The tentacles of this decision, to keep your
money in the community spread out farther, and
reap more benefits, than you can ever imagine.
Spending money at local businesses will keep
more money in the communities we reside in. Firstly,
this happens by maintaining the existing employ-
ment of their workers and, with growth, creating
new jobs. Employment levels are always a key factor
in the economic evaluations of any territory under
scrutiny. Secondly, there is a good chance businesses
employ people that reside in the same community.
These employees, as well as the small business own-
ers, are more likely to spend their money closer to
home, than in other communities.
In comparison to large big-box stores, small
businesses tend to employ more people per unit of
sale. Have you ever walked through a huge national
chain store and found it difficult to locate someone
to assist you? Their annual sales are massive, but yet
per dollar, fewer people are needed to generate this
income.
Another major impact that large national chain
stores have made upon us, is the look of our neigh-
borhoods. Have you ever traveled from city to city
lately and notice that many areas are beginning to
look identical? The same brand name stores are dot-
ted everywhere, and many of them in very similar
groupings. This has not only taken away from small
businesses succeeding, but is also diminishing the
uniqueness of each community. This in turn affects
the local tourism industry as well.
For the most part, small businesses are more
flexible at fulfilling our needs. They have the resourc-
es to provide the extra bit of service we may require,

or the ability to bring in products that are out of the
ordinary that we may desire. Large chain stores are
more likely to be bound to contracts or procedures
that keep their product offerings comparable.
Another fact to consider when choosing to shop
local is the impact on the environment. This is focus-
ing on the source of the products being offered rather
than the type of ownership of the business. The less
distance these products have to travel before com-
ing in contact with the end consumer, usually means
the less harm to the environment because of reduced
transportation and packaging needed.
When considering fresh produce, one also
should realize that many items are picked before they
are fully ripe, so that they can ripen during transport.
Fresh, direct, and fully ripe produce from the farm is
always a better option for ultimate flavour and tex-
ture.
There is also a better chance that small local
businesses will support fundraising and charities in
the communities they are in. They are not bound to
decision making rules set out by a corporate main of-
fice - they ARE the corporate office.
With all of this said however, there is a cost fac-
tor that comes into play with the decision to support
our local merchants. The relevant benefits must far
outweigh the costs involved, but also we need to be
able to literally afford the decision to shop local. If
the budget for your household is holding your purse
strings ransom, then you can only do what you can
afford to do. Every argument I have given you here
may make perfect sense, and it is not my intention to
make you feel guilty if you cannot sustain these ideas
one hundred percent. Awareness is my objective
here. The more knowledgeable and aware we are, the
better we can adapt our actions within our means.
Get informed about the happenings and discussions
in your communities. Search out social media pages
that are dedicated to your area and follow (or start)
discussions about where to shop and the products/
services being offered. Please keep in mind that I am
not suggesting that it always costs more to shop local;
in fact, in many occasions, it may cost less. The more
investigative work you do, the more mindful of this
you will become. Every community, and the prod-
ucts/services being offered within, are different.

to Trish Patterson, one of
the club leaders, the deci-

came entirely from the kids
in the group. Each year,
they donate one percent
of their steer sale profits to
either the Little Valley Jam-
boree or the Erickson Le-
gion, alternating between
the two. This year, the kids
decided to make a second

WWI Veterans Medal Back Home
By DIANE BACHEWICH
T he Drop-In Centre in
Sandy Lake was filled
to capacity on Remem-

dress this year was dedi-
cated to all WWI Veterans.
Several young men who
courageously fought in the
First World War were from
Sandy Lake and area. They
all were reunited with their
families at the end of the
war, except for one.
Mr. William Nichol

military in 1915. He was
killed in action on January
12th, 1918 at the age of 23.
He is buried in France in
a cemetery on the North-
Western outskirts of Vimy.
His name is proudly dis-
played on the Sandy Lake

D ustin Kerschtien of
Minnedosa, has re-
cently been awarded as the
winner of Outpost Maga-
zines travel photo contest
for 2016. His grand prize
is an all expenses paid trip
for two to Peru for eleven
days. The magazine also
published two other pho-
tos of Kerschtiens in their
March/April edition as
Honorable Mentions.
Kerschtien has been
travelling for three out of
the last five years, and has
made it to many different
places. In 2012, he went
backpacking for 875 days.
Then, he recently finished
his second backpackging
tour, which lasted 340
days.

my blood, I literally started

tion to Expo 86, he said.
Over the past 20 years, his
parents, Richard and Les-
lie, have travelled exten-
sively, and have gone all
over the world.
In his first trip, Dustin
stopped in Peru, Burn-
ing Man 2012 in Nevada,
California, Iceland, Am-
sterdam, Turkey, Rome,
Egypt, Jordan, Nepal, and
India. After this, he flew
home, hopped in his car
and started to drive west
on a 14,000 km road trip.
He went to the Shambhala
Music Festival in B.C., and
the Rainbow Gathering
on Vancouver Island, and
then went back to Nevada
for Burning Man 2013.
After this, he went to
California with his brother,
and back to B.C., where
he met up with the rest of
his family for a wedding.
Next, he brought his car
home to Manitoba, and
flew back to India to enjoy
the remainder of the time
left on his visa. He then
went to Nepal for another
five months, and then re-
turned to India for another
six months. In India, Ker-
shtien purchased a Royal

He feels that his sec-

Removing Creases From
Vinyl Tablecloths
Solutions and
Substitutions
By
REENA NERBAS
Dear Reena,
I have two flannel-
backed vinyl tablecloths.
They were obviously
wrapped in tight plastic
packaging for a long time,
because they have a lot of
deep creases. What meth-
ods would you recom-
mend I use to remove the
creases without melting
the vinyl? Joan
Dear Joan,
Fill a bathtub with cool
water. Soak the tablecloths
in the tub for a couple of
hours to drench the creas-
es. Hang tablecloths to dry.
If creases persist, cover
folds with a damp tea tow-
el and iron on low setting
to remove creases.
Dear Reena,
I own a suede jacket
that has a big dirt mark on
the sleeve, because I fell on
my elbow into a puddle. I
also have a few scuff marks
on the opposite sleeve.
What should I use to clean
the area? Garry
Dear Garry,
Hope you are not
hurt from the fall! Get rid
of scuff marks by rubbing
the marks with a pencil
eraser, and then wiping the
nap with your nail brush.
Sprinkle the suede fab-
ric with baking soda, and
then brush the nap back
and forth with a damp nail
brush. If the suede is a syn-
thetic fabric, you will be
able to clean it with plain
old water and dish soap.
Rinse and let dry.
Dear Reena,
We moved into an old
home and we are excited
to use the wood burning
fireplace. What do we need
to do before we use it, so
that we dont burn down
the house? Any tips? Peter
Dear Peter,
Before lighting your
first fire, inspect the chim-
ney exterior for broken
bricks or crumbling mor-
tar. Shine a light inside the
chimney, and be on the
lookout for birds nests and Dear Reena,
cracks. Check to make sure
that the damper opens and
closes properly. Clean the
chimney, and any loose
ash or contact a profes-
sional for seasonal main-
tenance. Retailers also sell
chimney sweeping logs
which are designed to re-
duce and treat creosote
buildup.
Extra Tip: It is also
important to note that the
wood you burn in your
fireplace should be sea-
soned for at least one year
before use. Properly sea-
soned wood burns hotter
and creates less creosote.

Dear Reena,
Can you please give
me a simple recipe for
homemade garlic butter?
Carolyn
Dear Carolyn,
For the easiest garlic
butter recipe, stir together:
1 cup softened butter with
one tbsp. garlic powder.
But for Garlic Butter with
a Kick; try the following
recipe. Into a bowl stir
together: One cup softened
butter, one tbsp. minced
garlic, one tsp. garlic salt,
one quarter cup grated
Parmesan cheese, one tsp.
Italian seasoning salt, one
quarter tsp. black pep-
per and half tsp. paprika.
Spread on bread before
toasting. Store remainder
in a sealed container in the
fridge.

We had a dripping

scheduled for Monday. To
quiet the faucet, I took a
piece of dental floss and
tied it around the spout

not keep us awake at night.

a selection of jokes, which
he continued to tell at in-
tervals throughout the eve-
ning.

from the Town, and even
brought forth a joke of
his own. He mentioned
the great things that the
Legion does for the com-
munity, specifically citing
its $100,000 donation to
the Dr. Ajai Khandelwal

rently under construction.
He announced that this
would be his last time at-
tending the event as the
Mayor, and commented
that it has been an honour
and a privilege to attend
the event during his may-
oral term.

Ladies Auxiliary, and not-
ed some of the highlights

nity, which include the Sat-
urday night suppers, bake

vegetables, and supporting
a variety of charities and
organizations. They help
students go to summer
camps, and have many
volunteers who help out
throughout the year. She
then presented a cheque
to the Legion Branch in the
amount of $5,000, which
was received by President
