The Stonewall Teulon Tribune Thursday, November 30, 2017 13 Stonewall vet hospital collecting pet-related items until Dec. 21

By Jennifer McFee Christmas is a time of giving — even to our furry friends. In the spirit of the season, Stonewall Veterinary Hospital is collecting pet food and other animal-related items in support of two rescues: Manitoba Mutts Dog Rescue and Journey’s Legacy. The local business is one of many veterinary clinics participating in the province-wide pet food drive, which is organized by the Manitoba Veterinary Medical Association. Until Dec. 21, donations can be dropped off at Stonewall Veterinary Hospital, located at 4 Dolomite Ave. “People can drop off wet food, dry food, puppy pads, used collars — and even newspapers, old sheets, towels or blankets,” said veterinary assistant Samantha Gagnon. “We’ll take anything pet-related.” She said that pet rescues usually have toys for the puppies to play with on site. When the puppies are adopted, they often get to keep one of those familiar toys to help them adjust to their new home. To help maintain supplies, pet toy donations are welcome too. Whenever people make a donation to the cause, they can hang a decoration on the Honour Tree to pay tribute to pets, both past and present. “We made angel wing decorations, so you could put the name of your pet that has passed on. We also have decorations for cats, dogs and pocket pets like guinea pigs that are still with us,” Gagnon said. “The donations can be anything, such as a can of dog food or tennis balls, and then they can put their pet’s name on the decoration to hang on the tree.” This year marks the second time the Stonewall Veterinary Hospital will participate in the initiative, and Gagnon hopes it will grow even more next year. “It’s great to be able to help the rescues, and it would be nice if we could do even more than two,” she said.

At the Wonderland Evening fundraising gala, held on Nov. 25 at the Stonewall Legion, Lois Borkowsky shared these sentiments on behalf of Southwest District Palliative Care. The sold-out event com- memorated the organization’s 20th anniversary. “I believe this saying sums up the work of the South West Palliative Care over the last 20 years,” she said. “It reminds us that we are in a relationship with people — people that want to travel this journey with us to enhance the quality of end-of-life care.” It all began in 1997 when 11 concerned people gathered together for a common cause, forming the fi rst board. Over the years and decades, the district expanded and so did the group of people involved. From the inception to today, more than 100 volun- teers have spent time visiting clients and families while also tackling tasks of fundraising, event or- ganization, attending meetings and so much more. Borkowsky took a moment to recognize the work of Vera Appleyard and her instrumental contribu- tions to the organization. She also gave a nod to past and present board members as well as the TRIBUNE PHOTOS BY JENNIFER MCFEE valuable volunteers, noting that more of each are Board members, volunteers and other supporters of South West District Palliative Care gathered always needed. to commemorate 20 years. Relationships and community partnerships are what it’s all about, even during times of change. Looking ahead, discussions are underway about es- tablishing a hospice facility in the southwest. “Health-care delivery is changing right in front of our eyes, but one thing remains constant,” she said. “We are born surrounded by loved ones and we die surrounded by loved ones — hopefully in an envi- ronment of our choosing.” Supporters enjoyed the semi-formal event, which featured a delicious meal followed by speeches as well as toe-tapping tunes by the band Rewind. Stonewall Mayor Lockie McLean even took a turn on stage after accepting a fundraising challenge. The crowd successfully raised $1,500, dropped in a hat that circulated the room, so McLean sang a rendition of Pretty Woman, earning cheers from his audience.

By Brian Bowman The Warren Wildcats had an out- standing run at the MHSAA “A/AA” junior varsity girls’ volleyball champi- onship last weekend in Killarney. Warren was very, very good as it reached the championship game be- fore losing 2-0 (25-19, 25-17) to Gilbert Plains. “It was a fabulous match,” said Wild- cats’ head coach Tyler Oliver. “We just missed some serves at key points which, when you’re playing in the fi - nal, you can’t really do.

By Brian Bowman A lack of goal scoring was predicted to be a prob- lem for the Interlake Lightning in the Manitoba AAA Midget Hockey League this season. And that lack of scoring punch appeared last weekend as Interlake lost 5-2 to the Winnipeg Wild on Saturday and then 4-1 to the Southwest Cougars on Sunday. Both games were played in Teulon. In Sunday’s loss, Interlake’s Jordan Wood scored the lone goal of the fi rst period, assisted by Rhys Bremner. But Southwest took over in the second period, scoring a pair of goals. Leighton Holstein tied the score at 1-1 with a pow- er-play goal midway in the second period and then Josh Wiens put the visitors up 2-1 about four min- utes later. Southwest outshot Interlake 16-2 in the second period In the third, Callum Fortin tallied a shorthanded goal at 5:33 and then Landon Roberts added an in- surance marker late in the game. Against the Wild, the Lightning played well in the three-goal loss to one of the league’s elite teams. Winnipeg took a 2-0 fi rst-period lead on goals by Zachary Falck and Ryan Gottfried. Interlake’s Shane Bear cut that lead in half, though, early in the middle frame. Jagger Bonkowski and Greg Paseschnikoff drew assists on the goal. The Lightning gave up a shorthanded goal to Mitchell Joss to trail 3-1 after two periods.
