IN SPORTS~ 1966 JUVENILES SASKATCHEWAN BOUND
Hamiota Echo- August 31st, 1966– Baseball Provincial Win
Seasons of frustration in hockey and baseball competition alike came to an end as Hamiota edged the South End Sioux of
Winnipeg 1-0 in 10 innings to capture the Provincial Juvenile Baseball title and the right to represent the province at
Regina in interprovincial play. Many of the team had been finalists in previous competition but had fallen just short of the
trophies. Fans may follow the teams progress by tuning CKCK Regina on your radio dial.
Rick Robinson pitched a masterful game giving up 3 or possibly 4 hits over the 10 inning route. He struck out 12 and
walked 2.
Rick set the Sioux down in order in the 1, 2, 8 and 10th innings, striking out 3 of the last 4 batters to face him.
It was the 7th inning before a Sioux reached 3rd. The Sioux threatened in the 9th with runners on second and third with
only one out but were retired without damage on an infield out to second and the strikeout.
Hamiota threatened in the third inning with runners on second and third but failed to score when a runner was hit by the
batted ball.
Hamiota nearly scored in the 6th when after Bill Thompson flied out, Mel Smith was safe on an error and Ellis Woods and
Rick Robinson made hits.
Again in the 7th Hamiota threatened as Dick Coombs led off with a hit and reached 3rd Earl Mathison’s sacrifice and
Denis Sparling’s hit but the venture failed.
In the 10th with one out Mel Smith popped up the ball was played by the pitcher, first baseman and the catcher. The
catcher drew an error on the play. When they finally got their hands on the ball, Mel was on second, but Rick Robinson
lashed a long fly on the first pitch to the fence in left field, that the fielder couldn’t hold while Mel scampered home with
the run.
The team consists of Dennis Sparling and Bill Thompson from Oak River, Mel Smith, Ellis Woods, Rick Robinson, Lee
Pollock, Earl and Murray Mathison, Dick and Don Coombs, Roger Stewart, sidelined with an appendectomy, and Bob
Gilbert lately moved to Nipawin.
Nelson Woods and Glen Stewart coach the team, Nellie expects to pick up Lou Morrison of Hartney and Mark Fisher of
Riverside for interprovincial play.
                                                                                                                          1

HAMIOTA OAKVIEW SENIORS
Hopefully everyone has got through the Christmas season and into the New Year with little difficulties. December has
come and gone and we have been fortunate to have such a mild winter. Try to stay warm everyone and remember to
dress for the conditions.
With the many restrictions due to Covid-19 and the weather. Please remember to check in on your neighbors and family
members. Particularly the ones who are on their own, or are not good with technology. These next few months are
generally hard for many people and a simple telephone call or a written note can go along way to relieving some of that
feeling of isolation. Try to make a simple call every week to 5 people that you may not normally talk to. Just to say hello.
It will make their day much brighter and our community connection much stronger.
As we start the New Year a lot of people are cleaning out the old to make room for the new. As you do that, please keep in
mind our senior’s office. We are a non-profit organization and look for the generosity of donations from those around us.
We appreciate donations such as mobility aids for our lending program, any and all office supplies, or monies that can
help with our summer student program and keep the office operational. If you think you have something to donate please
stop by or call the office.
I would like to personally thank the Country Crocus Bakery and the various businesses and organizations in the area who
have stepped up to make these trying times a little less difficult for the seniors and shut ins. They have been a ray of
sunshine in a very trying year.
If you are a group or individual and have something you would like to share or present to seniors please contact the office.
From music to crafting to presenting information, we appreciate anything you are willing to share.
The Hamiota Seniors Office is here for our seniors, you can call or email at any time. Whether you are a senior or a
concerned family member or friend, you can inquire about resources at any time. Always open for a friendly visit or
conversation, happy to help however we can!

       Hamiota United Church -Happy New Year and welcome to 2021. We look forward with Hope that the new year will
       allow us to continue to do some of the activities we were comfortable doing last January. Now we wear masks,
       social distance and pray we will not contract COVID-19. Though the church is closed for services, many of the
members are available for phone conversations. I know where there are 60 different puzzles and pocket books to help you
pass the time. Curbside or delivery available. Rev Jamie Bradshaw is away on holidays, but I have access to another on
line service and can make you a copy of the worship service if you would like one. Just call us. Rosalie A. Beamish
Hamiota Thrift Shop has reopened after the holidays. Tuesdays and Fridays from 2-5. We are following COVID-19
