The meeting was chaired by president Kirby Kazeil. Treasurer Ross McKee gave his financial report, and the meeting continued with a discussion and update on the 2019-20 LMVBA Business Directory distribution, and the receipt of an additional 1,000 copies as ordered at the last meeting. It was decided to cancel the planned Fall Economic Development Meeting after failed efforts to contact Yancoal and solicit their participation, and after the cancelling of the proposed subdivision development on the north end of town (see article: ‘Planned Development dead’ on page 1). After a lively discussion about the subdivision project, during which members questioned the wisdom of the Town’s actions, and the accuracy of the Town’s ‘press release’, it was decided that the LMVBA should send a letter of concern to the Town. Planning is already well underway for this year’s Christmas on Mainstreet event, with the date set for Wednesday, December 4th. More details will be available following the LMVBA’s November 6th meeting. -Editor
Last Mountain Times • Monday, October 7, 2019 • lmtimes.ca Council Gender Parity on the Agenda SUMA meetings in Central Saskatchewan 15 Municipal leaders from nine towns in central Saskatchewan gathered in Wadenalast week to discuss issues important to their communities. Gender Parity at the council table is one of the discussions at the Central Regional Meeting hosted by the Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association (SUMA). “An education session at SUMA’s 2019 Convention highlighted the importance of parity at the council table,” said Lee Finishen, Central Regional Director and councillor for the Town of Fort Qu’Appelle. “We are continuing to build on that conversation, working toward equal representation in local office.” On social media this October, to celebrate Women’s History Month and highlight the importance of parity at the council table, SUMA is featuring eight local women in politics who are serving their communities. Last week in Wadena, municipal representatives were also discussing climate change, prompt payment legislation, and building standards. The Central Regional Meeting is the first of seven regional meetings being hosted by SUMA from October 1 through October 9. “Regional meetings are a chance for municipal officials to share ideas and discuss challenges with fellow leaders from their region,” said SUMA President Gordon Barnhart. Leaders attending the Central Regional Meeting represented: Cupar, Edenwold, Fort Qu’Appelle, Lanigan, Lumsden, Pilot Butte, Regina Beach, Wadena, and Wynyard. -media release Bucket List One day, a few weeks ago, we threw an umbrella, our jackets, sunscreen and mosquito repellent into the car and headed off for Rowan’s Ravine. It was a really lovely drive and although it was the end of summer, there were still lots of campers soaking up whatever sun they could find. We roamed around quite happily for an hour, ate some ice cream and then made our way back home where I crossed “See Rowan’s Ravine” off my Bucket List. Nobody really knows who took the phrase, “kick the bucket”, (thought to be of English origin, and an informal or slang term for - not to put too fine a point on it - “to die) and meshed it with “list” to create a Bucket, or “before I die”, List. However, it doesn’t seem to matter how it came about, as it is obvious that people have accepted and embraced the term as a focused means for them to complete a life perhaps seemingly unfulfilled. A Bucket List acts as a catalyst - a push to step outside of one’s personal comfort zone; a way to say, I not only lived, but I accomplished something I never thought possible! I am not one to stray far away from the beaten path as I tend to cling to a life that is neat and tidy, safe and “square”. But living that way has never stopped me from creating lists of things that I wanted to have or wanted to achieve. Some were not realistic - age and time took care of those - but the ones that were left, I kept. And when I was close to turning sixty, I began to dust them off. “Grow my hair out”. When I was younger, my mother kept my hair short, cut just below my ears. At the time, it was the easiest thing for her to do, especially after all three of us girls were in school. When I got older, I grew it to my shoulders; once when I turned 18 and then when I got married. It didn’t last. I just didn’t have the patience for clips and pins as I waited for my hair to grow past the frizzy stage. Five years ago, I made the decision to give it another go - age gave me the obstinacy I needed - and now it’s down my back … and I can braid it! Cross that one off the list! “Bake Madeleines”. Have you ever heard of a Petite Madeleine? It is a very small, very tasty, sponge cake that is most often baked in a pan with shell-shaped depressions. I didn’t even know they LIZ CAMERON existed until I watched the breakfast scene in the movie “The Transporter”. I’m not much of a baker, but as it seems I will only need butter, eggs, sugar, flour and baking powder, I figure I can handle it. I mean, how hard can it be? (Says she who used the first loaf of bread she ever made as a doorstop.) By the way, quite a few movies have been the inspiration behind my searching for, and obtaining, Bucket List items. For example, the ceramic candy box that I purchased at an antique and collectible shop in Dilke reminded me of a scene in the movie “Matilda”; a magical moment that I wanted to emulate with my grandchildren. The movie “Chocolat” can take credit for the heaps of Bernard Callebaut milk and dark chocolate shavings that I keep on hand for the creation of thick, creamy, hot drinks sprinkled liberally with instant coffee and cinnamon; proof that items on a Bucket List don’t all have to be about mountains, safaris, and evenings in Paris. To date, I would say that I have completed two tasks and am going slow with “Write a work of fiction”. Not sure if I’ll ever be able to wear my German dirndl again - after all, I was seventeen, and a lot thinner in the waist - but I’d like to give it a go. A visit to Jim Henson’s Creature Shop might remain unrealized, but I don’t mind. Perhaps everyone’s Bucket List should contain at least one magical, “pie in the sky” wish. We all need those truly golden moments to look forward to. - Liz Cameron CONTINUED from PAGE 15 tural development, or to recognize the significance to First Nations Culture.
