Saskatchewan Command the Royal Canadian Legion HI LITES Saskatchewan Command The Royal Canadian Legion Published December Yearly Article Deadline: November 15th ****************************************************************** DECEMBER 2012 VOLUME 17 FROM THE PRESIDENT’S DESK Comrades All: The year 2012 is pretty much behind us now but what a busy and productive year it has been! It is rewarding and satisfying to see that Saskatchewan Command remains strong and active due to the determination of our branches and members. Our great organization continues to best serve our veterans and their families, and to diligently engage in the remembrance of all service personnel past and present. I am sure that most of you are now aware that there have been significant changes in our office personnel since the summer months. Comrade Liz Cadore had decided to move back to her home country of England. Comrade Cherilyn Cooke has taken the position of Command Service Officer, Jessie Jardine is our new Administrative Assistant and Wendy Wenaus is our new Command Accountant. All are quickly getting orientated in their new positions and I hope that you will welcome them, as that opportunity arises. Zone Rallies were held in early spring and it would certainly be nice to see more of our Comrades out to these. These rallies are a great opportunity for our newer members to learn about their organization and for everyone to share their successes and failures. All branches would benefit individually and collectively. We also used this year’s rallies to address the importance of Leadership as it certainly affects the future of our Command. We focused on leadership at the branch level and reviewed the duties of all branch officers. This branch leadership seminar and leadership brochures were well received and will be an active tool for our leadership Committee. I would like to thank all our comrades who attended the Dominion Convention in Halifax this June. It was the opportunity of our approximately 80 delegates to have a voice in determining the future of the Royal Canadian Legion. Also most notable, was the election of our Past President Peter Piper, to the position of Vice President of Dominion Command. Congratulations Comrade Peter. I know you will serve us well! I think we should all be proud of the Wounded Warriors Weekend that centred around Nipawin Br. #120 this summer. They with the help of other supporting branches and members orchestrated a fantastic weekend for wounded service personnel from all across North America. It was a chance for them just to relax and share their experiences with their peers. The stories and results that came about from that weekend, from the veterans themselves, are a direct testament to the fact that the Royal Canadian Legion can, and does, make a difference in the lives of these veterans and their families. The Saskatchewan Government and SGI have made available a Veterans Plate for motorcycles and snowmobiles to compliment those that are already available for regular motor vehicles. They have asked Saskatchewan Command to look after the applications and they can be sent to our office. Saskatchewan Command is proceeding to establish a new program called “Operation Leave the Streets Behind”. We have joined with all the other Provincial Commands to help identify within our Commands, veterans (and possible families) who are considered homeless or hidden homeless. Initially, and in its simplest form, it will be to identify these persons and to identify the reasons they are in their present lifestyle. Ultimately the goal is to get them off the streets as soon as possible, secure temporary shelter, and to find, create or share transitional programs that can get them back on their feet. Our Poppy Campaigns, Remembrance Day Services, and Poster and Literary Contests are now over for another year. I appreciate the effort and professionalism that our members and branches display on behalf of the Royal Canadian Legion, as they conduct these most important services to their communities. Thank you all. Comrades as one busy year ends, another busy and equally as important year will soon begin. However hopefully December will now see you some time for family and friends also. On behalf of Wendy and myself we wish you a healthy, happy and active Holiday Season.

  • Saskatchewan Birding Trail Experience (Pdf)
    askatchewan has a wealth of birdwatching opportunities ranging from the fall migration of waterfowl to the spring rush of songbirds and shorebirds. It is our hope that this Birding Trail Guide will help you find and enjoy the many birding Slocations in our province. Some of our Birding Trail sites offer you a chance to see endangered species such as Piping Plovers, Sage Grouse, Burrowing Owls, and even the Whooping Crane as it stops over in Saskatchewan during its spring and fall migrations. Saskatchewan is comprised of four distinct eco-zones, from rolling prairie to dense forest. Micro-environments are as varied as the bird-life, ranging from active sand dunes and badlands to marshes and swamps. Over 350 bird species can be found in the province. Southwestern Saskatchewan represents the core of the range of grassland birds like Baird's Sparrow and Sprague's Pipit. The mixed wood boreal forest in northern Saskatchewan supports some of the highest bird species diversity in North America, including Connecticut Warbler and Boreal Chickadee. More than 15 species of shorebirds nest in the province while others stop over briefly en-route to their breeding grounds in Arctic Canada. Chaplin Lake and the Quill Lakes are the two anchor bird watching sites in our province. These sites are conveniently located on Saskatchewan's two major highways, the Trans-Canada #1 and Yellowhead #16. Both are excellent birding areas! Oh! ....... don't forget, birdwatching in Saskatchewan is a year round activity. While migration provides a tremendous opportunity to see vast numbers of birds, winter birding offers you an incomparable opportunity to view many species of owls and woodpeckers and other Arctic residents such as Gyrfalcons, Snowy Owls and massive flocks of Snow Buntings.

  • Where to Go Quill Lakes
    Where to go: Quill Lakes The Conservator January 2006 Word count: 822 By Bruce Masterman [email protected] Spring and fall are magical seasons at Quill Lakes in central Saskatchewan. In those two seasons, the internationally famous birding area -- comprised of Big Quill, Little Quill and Mud lakes – jointly conjures up a magnificent and powerful display of waterfowl that draws visitors from around the world. This natural spectacle never fails to amaze no matter how many times it’s witnessed. “My strongest memory is the sight and sound of thousands of waterfowl lifting off the marsh all at once only a few yards in front of me,” says Chuck Deschamps, who has worked in the area as a Ducks Unlimited Canada biologist for 15 years. “They make so much noise with their wings that it’s like thunder.” Locals like to say Quill Lakes boasts more incoming flights than the airports at Los Angeles and Miami combined. That’s probably not much of a stretch. The lakes host more than one million birds – from 300-plus species – each year. In spring and fall migrations, the area is a resting stop for more than 200,000 shorebirds, 400,000 ducks, 130,000 snow geese, 80,000 Canada geese and 40,000 sandhill cranes. Last fall, Quill Lakes received considerable media attention after hunters shot three geese combining the features of both snow and Canada geese. The lakes are home to breeding colonies of American white pelicans, western grebes, eared grebes, black crowned night herons and endangered species such as the piping plover (25 per cent of Canada’s piping plovers nest here), and migrating whooping cranes and peregrine falcons.
