of Events


The Greenwater Report
Tuesday
July 6, 2004
by : Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park : It has warmed up some and the fish are biting at Greenwater, but don't tell anybody. Dear, turkey vulture and bear have made an appearance.

Reform failed again
Tuesday
July 6, 2004
by : Brain Marlatt
Whiterock B.C. : The great twisted crusade to unite the right has turned out pretty much as expected. If something is based on a poor foundation there is little hope of it standing up.


Messages from France, sixty years after "D" Day
Thursday
July 1, 2004
by: Bernard de Maussion
Mondeville, France : When Canadian armed forces landed on Juno and Sword beach in Normandy in 1944 they made history, many of them died but through their efforts the German occupation forces was hurled back into the low countries. The people of France remember that sacrifice and Bernard de Maussion has sent us eleven local newspaper clippings telling of "D" Day celebrations last month.

Our front yard
Wednesday
June 30, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : The development of the old TUCs field seemed to be in full throttle this week as the town installed water and sewer service into four lots on the north side of the field while Chupa Excavation developed a parking lot on the west side of the Golden Age Centre and the first floor of the new condominium is taking shape on the southeast corner. There goes the neighbourhood! This story includes a QuickTime VR panorama (400KB).

Lion's Park FunZone, first day
Tuesday
June 29, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : We all welcomed the warm weather but it was a perfect day to get the Lion's Park FunZone activities started for another year yesterday.

The Greenwater Report
Tuesday
June 29, 2004
by : Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park : Grand children are graduating from high school and here are the pictures. But there was time to get on a field trip to Candle Lake and keep tabs on pelicans and the dredging of the marina.

Gravelbourg, a fleeting impression
Tuesday
June 29, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Gravelbourg : This is a hurried look at one of Saskatchewan's special places. A Francophone community with its own junior college and a wealth of cultural activities that match the architecture and meticulous landscaping.

Parkland Photography Club June 2004
Tuesday
June 29, 2004
by : Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park : The photo club went off on a field trip to Candle Lake and have wrapped up their year with some images of flowering trees.

Figures in Leader
Tuesday
June 29, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Leader : On the western edge of the Great Sand Hills is the community of leader and it is a placed filled with eye candy.

Bush’s language: lies and TIT for TAT
Sunday
June 27, 2004
by : Mario deSantis
Nipawin : The anger and disturbing direction of the United States government and the people of that country needs to be closely watched as things go from very bad to much worse.

The Great Sandhills: a fourteen thousand year old crisis
Saturday
June 26, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Sceptre : From Swift Current to Maple Creek, north of the TransCanada highway to Leader is a geological consequence of the last glacial period. Its not empty, it is full of life, has enormous potential and deserves a good deal of respect. This is a large collection of pictures that tells the story is in the form of a 4MB QuickTime slide show.(This takes a while to download even on high speed) This story includes information and attitudes from some of the interviews with its human inhabitants and included is a QuickTime VR panorama of some open dunes south of Sceptre.

Don Hovdebo, only candidate to attend all candidate's forum Thursday night
Friday
June 25, 2004
by : Timothy W. Shire
Tisdale : The Chamber of Commerce All Candidate's forum was cancelled, apparently because a candidate could not attend but like myself and a dozen or so others Don Hovdobo was unaware of the cancellation until he got to the RECPLex last night. Find out what he has to say about equallisation payments and agricutlure in the QuickTime video clip (1.7MB) in this story.

The Greenwater Report
Friday
June 25, 2004
by : Gerald Crawford
Greenwater Provincial Park : The creek is running as deer and other animals of the woods make their presence known. Gerald's thinking about getting his boat in the water but that snow last week has had slowing effect on getting the boat launched.
