Lake Committee Ready to Move Forward

By KAREN MITCHELL Barry McPhail (Friends The committee mem-
of Lake Minnedosa) and bers from Town Council

T uesday, December
10th saw the first Inau-
gural meeting held for the
newly formed Lake Com-
mittee. The committee
will be made up of Town
Council members, R.M. of
Minto-Odanah members
and stakeholders equaling
nine members initially.
At its Tuesday, January
14th meeting, Minnedosa
Town Council appointed
the following stakehold-
ers to the Minnedosa Lake
Committee: Pat Skatch
(Mayor of Minnedosa),
Frank Taylor and Grant
Bulter (Minnedosa Town
Councillors), Barry Cook
(R.M. of Minto-Odanah
Councillor), Mitch Bur-
gess (Minnedosa Tourism
Committee), Tamra Rap-
sky (Minnedosa Chamber
of Commerce), Mark Blais
(Recreation and Culture
Committee), Todd Rath-
well (Brandosa Beach),
Colleen Cuvelier (Little
Saskatchewan River Basin
District). 
The initial meeting
was held to discuss goals,
both short term and long
term and get a few items
in place to kick start the
committee. One of the
first business items was
to create a mandate. The
committee mandate will
be, “The Minnedosa Lake
Committee shall be a vol-
unteer committee work-
ing towards improving
the health of Minnedosa
Lake and its watershed.
This may be accomplished
through physical repair,
monitoring and/or lobby-
ing legislation.”
The committee also
identified the three major
issues that face the lake
currently. The three main
topics are; algae, weeds
and silt build up. The com-
mittee will look at each

The third sub group
will be working with more
of a long term goal. The
R.M. of Minto-Odanah
has been working with the

have done extensive work
trying to slow down the silt,
creating dams, etc. The sub

are hoping to meet up with
the Provincial Government
and find out what it is they
can do and what they can’t
do, what the best options
are, etc. Lake Minnedosa
is part of a watershed and
therefore there are rules
and regulations that need
to be followed. They are
also looking at some guid-
ance for local and provin-
cial education they could
utilize to aid in end goal.
The committee will be
meeting monthly. “There
will always be issues that
need to be dealt with,”
tells Butler. “There will be
ongoing communication
needed for the data being
collected and then once
we start finding solutions
then there will need to be
committees formed that
will work directly with
those. Also, the reality is if
we want to work through
some of the issues, we will
need money to find and
obtain solutions.” Fund-
raising will be required
throughout the process
and the committee will be
discussing that in the next
few months.

W e’re back! Winter

break is done and
gone, and so is our nice
weather. The school’s been
having indoor recesses ga-
lore, and everyone is ready
for a break from the chill.
Since we’re just coming
back nothing much has
happened, so you’re in for
a short article.
HOPE has just started
helping make plastic bag
sleeping mats in partner-
ship with Carol Brown. The
students take a few spare
minutes to cut the bags
from stores around town
into round strips and loop
them together into balls of
“Yarn”. Soon they’ll start
crocheting or knitting the
bags together. Our Student
Council has faced a few set
backs regarding the junior
high dance, since it’s now
postponed, but everyone
is more than ready for the
rescheduled date!
HPS has been at work
planning for upcoming
activities this new year.
One of them is a campaign
called “Citizens Who En-
rich Our World”. Last year
a frame of Isabella On-
yshko was placed in the
TCS awards case, and now
they’re looking for nomi-
nations for the next winner
of the award! If you would
like to nominate someone
from our community for
this award, please contact
Wendy Radcliffe at TCS for
more details.
Sports! We’ve dived
students practice twice a
week for their upcoming
basketball tournaments,
and the curling for their
bonspiel. Everybody has
been hard at work, includ-
ing the coaches who’ve
taken the time to make our
teams great! During school
hours the older grades
have had the chance to
break out snowshoes, and
head outside to play in
the snow on warmer days.
They’ve also been partici-
pating along with rest of
the school in floor-ball. In-
tramural floor-ball games
have proven to be a lot of
fun, especially for the kids
that play hockey and now
get a chance to use their
skills at school.
Some of our band
students have just started
practicing at lunch time for
honour band on which is
on February 7th in Bran-

be the day Student Coun-
cil will be putting together

have more for you on those
topics in February, so
watch out!

The Minnedosa Tribune
By KAREN MITCHELL
A ctive, energetic, pas-
sionate, positive, hum-
ble and young at heart, a
few inadequate descrip-
tions to describe longtime
local resident, Allan James,
who doesn’t see slowing
down as an option.
Allan was born in Win-
nipeg on May 21st, 1927 - a
day he proudly shares with
a major American celebra-
tion, the day Charles Lind-
bergh landed a solo, non-
stop transatlantic flight
from New York to Paris.
He grew up and attended
school in Winnipeg and
then moved on to the
University of Manitoba to
complete his Law Degree,
graduating in 1953. Al-
lan met his wife, Thelma,
at a teen dance when he
was 18-years-old and he
recalls vividly seeing her
silhouette from across the
crowded dance floor. The
two have now been togeth-
er for over 50 years and it’s
clear to see the love has not
faded in the decades gone
by.
After Allan graduated,
the couple moved to Win-
nipeg where he landed a
job at Imperial Oil. After
a few years they headed
to Edmonton where he
worked for the Edmonton
National Trust Company.
Years later, Allan grew
restless for home and was
connected with the Fergu-
son and Burgess Law Firm
out of Minnedosa. In 1957,
the family made their final
move were they planted
roots in Minnedosa and
after 60 years, still call our
beautiful town home.
After 10 years at the
local law firm, then un-
der his own name, Allan
was appointed a Queens
Counsel in 1967 (Canada’s
Centennial year) and in
1978, was appointed a Pro-
vincial Court Judge where
he commuted to his office
in Brandon until retiring
in 1997 at the age of 70. “It
was a great profession,” re-
calls Allan. “I enjoyed all
my years of being a lawyer
and a Judge, I have abso-
lutely no regrets.”
Throughout his en-
tire life he was very active
in all sorts of sports and
then as a teen he found
and tried out the sport of
skiing. The Winnipeg Ski
Club had a little ski area
on the Red River. Both he
and Thelma spent many
Skiing is More Than a Passion
hours playing around with
the new found sport. Al-
lan remembers, “Skis in
that time were very differ-
ent and were just wooden
sticks that attached to your
shoes. There was no give at
all and if you fell the ski did
not come off. It wasn’t like
it is today.”
Allan and his fam-
ily enjoyed skiing for plea-
sure, and his kids, Darcy
and April, grew up with
the sport. The family en-
joyed spending the time
together, and often made
trips to Banff and Lake of
the Woods.
In 1960, while working
with Agassiz Enterprises at
Neepawa, Allan thought
Minnedosa would be a
beautiful place for a ski
hill. With Minnedosa be-
ing surrounded by good
hills, he and a friend start-
ed the scouting process to
see what they could find
for a prime location. They
drove out to the present
site of Ski Valley north-
west of town and the hills

captured them in a way no
other spot did.
“I got on the phone
and started making calls
to people I knew. Surpris-
ingly enough, I had five or
six people who said they
would help me,” remem-
bers Allan. “I received
open-mindedness and
support from those busi-
ness people in town who
were willing to back me
in the project, when I had
not even a piece of pa-
per to show them, only an
idea, which it appears they
were prepared and ready
to believe in. I knew them
