E
very year in facilities across the country, staf, stu-
dents, parents and public health battle with the
infestation of head lice. And while its a common issue
year-after-year, there still seems to be stigma attached.
Tere shouldnt be a stigma around this issue.
Anyone can get it, it is a common issue and it is really
a community problem. Te only way that it can be tak-
en care of is if people are willing to work together and
communicate to control it, said April Prokopchuk, lo-
cal public health nurse with Prairie Mountain Health
Authority.
Tere are a number of myths surrounding head
lice that may have contributed to the attached stigma.
Despite what many people think, lice and nits are not
caused by poor hygiene, they cannot jump from scalp-
to-scalp and they do not cause or carry disease.
Te fact of the matter is that anyone and everyone
can get head lice. Its the most common in younger,
school-aged children. Schools can often act as a focal
point for transmission as it is a place where a number of
children are in contact every day.
Lice are very small insects, about the size of a sesa-
me seed. Tey live on peoples scalps and are typically
found along the neckline and behind the ears. Tey can
be grey, cream or tan colored and when they bite, the
scalp can become itchy and red.
Transmission usually occurs through contact of
personal items that touch the head and nape of the
neck. Hats, helmets, furry coat collars, scarves, hair
brushes, combs and hair ornaments are the usual sus-
pects.
Every year around the same time we see this issue
arise and it always seems to peak around the time that
winter gear comes out. Many times in a rush to get out
the door for recess kids forget the importance of keep-
ing personal itemspersonal, added James Sheppard,
principal of Tanners Crossing Elementary School.

T
he small community of Clanwilliam celebrated an
impressive 100 year anniversary of its Clanwilliam
Curling Club this week. Te community commemorated
its 100 years of curling action with a week of events in-
cluding their annual mixed bonspiel.
In the last 30 to 40 years we have seen many small
communities diminish and as you drive through these
communities you will notice curling rinks overgrown
with weeds and falling down, but here in Clanwilliam we
have managed to buck the trend. Our curling rink con-
tinues to be something that draws people together and
opens its doors to anyone, said Doug Dowsett, curling
club member and speaker at the Clubs opening ceremo-
nies on the evening of Tuesday, January 28th.
Continued on Page 5
Te opening ceremonies of the 100th anniversary bonspiel of the Clanwilliam
Curling Club were held Tuesday evening. Te bonspiel runs until Sunday, February 2nd.

MIzacIe on DIvIsIon 8tzeet
By JENNIFER PAIGE
I
n April, the Minnedosa
and Areas Recreation
Dinner will be hosting Jon
Montgomery, Canadian
gold medalist in Skeleton,
as its keynote speaker.
Montgomery has
spent the last few weeks
in intense competitions in
hopes of qualifying for the
upcoming Sochi Olympics.
Im really looking
forward to coming back
to Manitoba this spring to
be a part of the Recreation
Commissions dinner.
Right now Im in the thick
of things with racing. Ive
painted myself into a cor-
ner and have a daunting
task in front of me to make
the 2014 Olympic team. I
took some risks in order
to have no regrets after
this season, and my slid-
ing career, are over, Mont-
gomery said when talking
to Te Tribune prior to his
fnal qualifying races.
Regardless of the out-
come Ive learned an awful
lot about myself, and life in
general, through this pro-
cess of trying to defend an
Olympic gold medal. I look
forward to sharing some
of these experiences and
nuggets of wisdom Ive
picked up along this jour-
ney.
Montgomery went on
to fnish in seventh place
in the fnal qualifying event
at the Skeleton World Cup
in Austria on January 18th
and 19th. He fell short of
the fourth place fnish nec-
essary to qualify for Sochi
but did f nish as the top
Canadian overall.
Im proud of the
choices I made and the
chances we took. Ive got
zero regrets and just a little
bit of disappointment on
my pallet, but that will dis-
sipate quickly, said Mont-
gomery after completing
his fnal race.
After a disappoint-
ing season, Montgomery
says that he will not likely
pursue the next winter
Olympics in Pyeongchang,
South Korea in 2018.
I dont think Im go-
ing to commit another
four years of my body and
my health to this sport. I
havent quite determined
what this means in terms
of my career in skeleton
racing. But I dont see my-
self being in Pyeongchang,
no.
Montgomery may not
be returning to the Olym-
pic podium but he will
be returning to the small
screen this summer as
the host of Amazing Race
Canada 2. Last season saw
3.5 million viewers tune,
as Montgomery hosted a
number of teams racing
around Canada through 10
dramatic legs.
Before heading to f lm
the hit TV show, Mont-
gomery will be stopping
in Minnedosa on April 5th
to speak at the Recreation
Commission Dinner.
Tickets for the dinner
are on sale now with early
bird pricing in efect until
February 2nd, costing $60.
After February 2nd they
will be $75.
We have also selected
our MC for the evening.
Gregory Mackling will
be hosting the evening,
added Jolene Young, rec-
reation director with the
Minnedosa and Area Rec-
reation Commission.
Mackling, whose fa-
ther owns the local Chip-
perfeilds Cofee House
comes to us from Winni-
peg where he hosts a num-
ber of radio shows on 680
CJOB.
Young also mentions
that applications for the
Outstanding Dedication
to Sports and Recreation
Award are now available.
Te award acknowl-
edges a local individual
who has enriched the life
of the community through
their outstanding dedica-
tion to sports and recre-
ation development.
Te Recreation Com-
mission assesses the
nominees based on their
contribution to the en-
hancement of sport and
recreation development
and delivery, volunteer
and personal involvement
in the community, the im-
pact and lasting commu-
nity contribution as well
as the visual image of role
modeling.
Applications can be
picked up at the Minnedo-
sa and Area Recreation
of ce and the deadline to
nominate is March 1st.
Upcoming Keynote Speaker
Falls Short of Sochi
Quite a few community members were on the
ice at the Minnedosa Curling Club recently

Dear Reena,
My daughter recently
moved into an apartment
while she goes to school.
Is it possible to prepare
homemade T.V. dinners for
her to keep in her freezer
and microwave when she
has time? If so, what kinds
of foods should I use? Delta
Dear Delta,
Tere are so many op-
tions to satisfy your ges-
ture. By making your own
frozen dinners you have
the opportunity to reduce
salt, control ingredients
such as choice of oils and
save money. Begin by pur-
chasing plastic freezer and
microwave safe dishes with
compartments. Foods that
freeze well are: leftover
meat with or without gravy,
mashed potatoes, cooked
rice and pastas, casseroles,
sauces, vegetables and bak-
ing for dessert. Make sure
to clearly label each dish by
title and date. After food has
been packaged into plastic
containers, wrap with foil to
prevent freezer burn.
Extra Tips: Veggies
should be slightly under-
cooked before adding
them to meals. Experi-
ment with foods by freez-
ing small portions to see
how well they taste once
thawed and heated. Foods
to avoid: lettuce, water-
melon, pineapple, cucum-
ber, raw tomatoes, pudding,
custards, cream cheese,
gelatin and egg yolks.
Hi Reena,
Love your column! I
would like to know if you
have any suggestions for us-
ing/decorating with collect-
ible spoons. I have collected
quite a few and some of my
friends have suggested my
spoon rack and spoons are
outdated. Some have sen-
timental value and I dont
feel right discarding them
or giving them away. Any
ideas would be appreci-
ated. Allison
Dear Allison,
It depends on just how
creative you want to be Al-
lison! You can bend the
spoons to make handles for
your kitchen or bathroom
cupboards or bend them
into wall hooks for scarves
or hang them on next years
Christmas tree for a Spoon
Around the World theme.
Some people have even had
little spoons bent into fnger
rings. Spoons can be sold at
auctions or to collectors;
older spoons can be worth
quite a bit if they are made
completely of silver and
not metal. However, if you
like your spoon collection,
I would leave them right
where you have them and
enjoy.
Hi Reena,
My problem is a cof-
fee stain on a light col-
oured Berber carpet. Carpet
cleaner said cofee never
comes out. He only light-
ened the stain. Please help,
Mike
Dear Mike,
I have used this recipe
many times for cofee, tea,
pet, food and plant stains.
In my experience no dam-
age has ever occurred and
the results have surpassed
any of the commercial
cleaning agents. However,
use at your own risk, you
may want to test a small
area of carpet before apply-
ing the recipe. Mix together
half-tsp. clear dish soap and
1-cup warm water. Blot (do
not scrub) onto stain and
leave for 5 minutes. Pat area
dry using a white towel.
Mix together one-half cup
hydrogen peroxide and
2-tbsp. ammonia. Dip white
towel in solution and blot
onto stain. Te area should
be a little wetter than damp,
which means that you may
need to double the recipe.
Cover the stain with clear
plastic wrap and weigh
down with heavy books.
Make sure that the books
are not touching the carpet
because if the books get wet
the dye from the paper can
seep onto the carpet. Leave
12 hours. Blot with warm
water and dry 2-3 times. Dry
with white towel as much as
possible. Air dry. When dry,
blot with white vinegar and
leave.
Dear Reena,
I live alone and have
itchy dry skin on my back.
My doctor tells me to smear
lotion on the area but I sim-
ply cant reach. How do I
reach my back to smear
cream on it? Helma
Dear Helma,
Apply moisturizing lo-
tion onto the back of a wood-
en spoon. Holding the han-
dle, gently smear cream onto
your back with the spoon.
