Woodchuck’s Stump Grinding Services, Gilles Pineau moved to St.
Pierre at a young age and there he has remained as he loves the town
where he grew up. He has worked as a heavy equipment operator
since 1980. Always a very hard worker and having a love of wood and
the outdoors, he decided to start a seasonal side business in preparation for his retirement. "Woodchucks", his strump grinding business
was launched in June 2007. He begins working on nuisance stumps
during the spring thaw and goes until the first snow fall. Up until
now, the majority of his business has been advertised by word of
mouth and reputation. Do you have some tree stumps that are just "in
the way"? Call Gilles at 204-746-0341with your needs, he will explain the service he provides. He will then set up a time that is mutually convenient, provide an estimate for the job and if agreed upon, he
will do the job on the spot.

Bonjour! Nous sommes Denis et Lise Foidart, les nouveaux propriétaires de Creekside Log Products. Notre entreprise est située à l’est
du village de St-Pierre-Jolys sur le chemin Lafourche. Ensemble
avec notre fils, Christian, nous avons réussi à faire profiter notre petite entreprise. Christian, Creekside Timber Products, s’occupe principalement du côté scierie de l’entreprise. Nous offrons des produits
en pin tel la planche rainure et languette, log siding et offrons
d’autres produits sur demande.
Pendant mes années d’enseignement au Collège St-Jean-Baptiste, j’ai
aussi travaillé dans le domaine de la construction. En 1998, je me suis lancé uniquement en menuiserie et construction. J’apporte alors une quarantaine d’années d’expérience dans le domaine des petites entreprises et je tiens beaucoup à cœur la survie de celles-ci en milieu rural. Nous serons au « Cottage Show » à Red River Exhibition Park,
le 22 au 24 avril. Venez nous voir!
Creekside Log Products is a small family owned company dedicated to supplying you with quality wood products.
It started out with just a sawmill and over the years, a log lathe and a 4-head moulder/planer were added. Together
with my son Christian from St. Malo, we are continually working hard to improve all aspects of the business.
Christian handles the sawmilling part of the business. I bring into the company approximately 40 years of business
experience in the wood and construction industry. Our specialty is pine products.
I believe wholeheartedly in rural life and in small businesses. Be sure to check out our website:
www.creeksidelogproducts.ca and come visit us in this year’s Cottage Show at the Red River Exhibition Park from
April 22-24.

There is no universal recommendation for flea and tick preventives, and
like any medical treatment, it should
be tailored to each individual pet.
It is an understatement to say that pets should be protected from ticks and fleas. Besides the aggravation and
discomfort of itching, these parasites can infect your
furry friends with serious, occasionally even fatal diseases.
Fortunately there is a wide array of products available
to help protect your pet pals from these harmful parasitets. Topical and oral medications, sprays, powders,
shampoos, dips and collars are all available to defend
your furry companions.

The Sisters of the Holy Rock, a not-for-profit interdenominational entertainment group which was
formed in Winnipeg, Manitoba, in the fall of 1993.
Inspired by the "Sister Act" movies, starring Whoopi
Goldberg, and under the direction of the Reverend
Mother Carole "Whoopi" Stone, the group has grown
to include approximately 80 people from all areas of
Winnipeg and the surrounding rural communities.
While this dedicated group makes a musical and spiritual difference in the communities where they perform, they also have an opportunity to grow musically
and personally.
The "Sisters", dressed in their Traditional black and
white nun-like habits are often described as "Talented
and Teasing, Serious and Silly, Faithful and Frolicking, Holy and Hilarious". They present their own
"Sister Act" with a repertoire of more than forty numbers, loaded with harmony, choreography, rhythm,
humour and boundless energy. The group performs 30
concerts a year for fund raising events to audiences
crossing all generations from children to seniors. The
uplifting music and joyful spirit of the "Sisters" is
contagious to their audiences, and often inspires standing ovations.
Since their debut on Winnipeg stages the Sisters of the
Holy Rock have performed over 700 shows and entertained more than 300,000 people. Funds exceeding
$3,250,000 have been generated for numerous organizations through "Sisters" performances. Featured frequently in the national and local media, the Sisters of
the Holy Rock continue to be one of the most sought
after entertainment groups in Manitoba.

Do you know what goes on during our Sugaring
Off Festival (Maple Syrup Festival) here in St-PierreJolys? This year our event is on April 9 and 10th, from 10
to 5. First of all the committee members work hard at organizing the tours of our 1938 classroom complete with our costumed teacher (Rachelle) and the itinerary of yesteryear; the
interpretation of how maple water is collected from trees;
how maple syrup is made by boiling (René) , the La Vérendrye soldier with their display and musket manoeuvers, and
the Maison Goulet complete with costumed children,
adults (Jacqueline,Marie and family),demonstrating how
chores were done before all our conveniences.This is a hands
on experience (with our crackling wood stove that is really
appreciated by our visitors),for children of all ages.They also
learn about family experiences during the early 1900's.We
have up to 1000 children coming through our program during
the week prior to the weekend festivities which include music, tasty food, taffy on snow, quilting demos, weaving with a
loom, wool carding, children's activities and baked goods
from our wood stove served piping hot at Maison Goulet. The
selling of our products has enabled us to foresee building our
summer kitchen this year! If you've never been to our festival
come for a visit and if you already have been it's always a
pleasure to see you again !

Comment ont débuté les Chevaliers de Colomb
How the Knights of Columbus started?
Le « Pourquoi? »
The « Why ? »
*To help brother Knights and their families when sickness
prevents them from working
*Upon death where the families are left destitute
*Aider les frères et leurs familles quand une maladie les
affectent
*Décès où la famille est délaissé financièrement
L’abbé Michael J McGivney devient prêtre vicaire en 1878 dans
la paroisse Ste-Marie à New Haven. Il aspirait à trouver une solution financière pour aider aux gens catholiques. Il invitait les
jeunes hommes catholiques à une réunion pour discuter le nouveau groupe qu’il voulait mettre sur pied. Parmi les 80 paroissiens qui se sont rencontrés, il y avait des anciens dirigeants
d’une société de bienfaisance appelés les « Red Knights » qui fut
dissout un an avant.
L’idée des Chevaliers Rouges « à tendre la main aux frères dans
le besoin et de les aider dans les périodes de maladie et de décès » était bonne mais il voulait que le nouveau groupe irait de
paire avec l’Église et que les prestations de décès seraient plus
élevées.
Alors, en 1882, une charte officielle fut mis en place pour le nouveau groupe « Chevaliers de Colomb ». Le but était d’avoir au
moins 1 000 hommes qui seraient des membres assurés. Si un
membre devenait malade ou incapable de travailler, il y aurait
une prestation de 5$ par semaine ou 1000$ au décès à leur famille.
Les assurances des Chevaliers de Colomb ont beaucoup
évoluées depuis ses débuts, pour en savoir plus, contactez Roland au 204-792-6149.
Father Michael J McGivney becomes a curate to St. Mary’s parish in New Haven in 1878. He aspired to find a financial solution
for catholic families. He invited young catholic men to a meeting
and discuss the new group he wanted to organize. Among the 80
parishioners who met, there were former principals of a benevolent society called the Red Knights who disbanded a year prior.
The idea of the Red Knights « to extend a helping hand to needy
Brothers, and to assist them in the time of sickness and death »
was good but he wanted the new group to embrace the Church
and that the death benefits be more substantial.
So, in 1882, an official charter was established for the new group
« Knights of Columbus ». The goal was to have a minimum of
1,000 catholic men who would become insured members. If a
member became sick or unable to work, their would be a weekly
benefit of $5 or $1,000 upon death to their family.
À suivre, comment devenir Chevaliers de Colomb
The Knights of Columbus’ insurance has evolved over the years, for additional information,
please contact Roland at 204-792-6149.
