Wickfest trip of a lifetime for Rankin female hockey players
by Darrell Greer

Memories on ice

A group of 15 young
female hockey players
returned to their home community of Rankin Inlet after
living the dream in Calgary,
Alta., this past month.
The girls travelled to Calgary to participate in Canadian female hockey icon
Hayley Wickenheiser's Canadian Tire Wickenheiser
World Female Hockey Festival from Nov. 27 to 30.
The event is commonly
known as Wickfest, and the
Rankin girls owe a huge debt
of gratitude to their coach,
Mikki Adams, for making it
happen, as well as Canadian
Tire for funding their participation.
Adams said the festival
was an incredible experience,
and the Rankin girls had a
blast.
She said Wickenheiser
spent a great deal of personal
time with the Rankin players.
"They spent an entire
Thursday morning with Hayley (Wickenheiser)," said
Adams. "She was just wonderful with the girls, who all
received a complete set of
brand new hockey equipment.
"Hayley made sure the
gear fit each girl properly,
and that included taking anyone whose gear wasn't right to
SportChek to make sure they
had a proper fit.
"She even cut the sticks for
any of the girls whose stick
was too long."
Adams said Wickenheiser
"Just the Rankin girls got

Big hearts warming little hands
Arviat elders sew mitts for children who need them most
by Darrell Greer
Northern News Services
Arviat
A group of elders are doing
their best to ensure every child
has nice warm hands in Arviat
this winter.
Members of the Elders
Advocacy Woman's Group
have been volunteering their
time to sew mitts for children in the community. Led by
Lena Napayok and the Arviat
Wellness Centre,
the elders get
together from 9
a.m. until noon
every weekday
morning at the
drop-in centre
to sew the mitts. The elders
are now working on a second
batch of mittens, after giving
20 pairs to the local social
services office to distribute
among local children in need
of them. The group is also
beginning to sew wind pants,
which will be sold for $20 to
cover the cost of materials.
Napayok said the elders
enjoy getting together for a
little socializing while sewing the mitts. She said some
younger ladies are also helping
with the mitts, while picking
up some sewing tips from the
elders at the same time.
"We have a few more pairs
done and we're still sewing,"
said Napayok.
"We have a sewing machine
and some material now, so
we'll be starting the wind pants
soon, too.
"I have five elders who
come each day, and it takes
them two or three days to
make a pair of mitts because
we only sew in the morning.
We started with cowhide, seal
and rabbit, and now we're sewing sheepskin."
Napayok said
Kukik Baker handles purchasing
the material, and
the Kiluk Sewing Centre also
donated a box of
seal-pelt-scrap material.
She said three young ladies
have been coming regularly
to help with the program,
improve their sewing skills
and spend some time with the
elders.
"One young lady just finished her first pair of mitts,
and we were as proud of her
for finishing as she was," she
said. "It's nice to learn how to
sew better, while helping kids
in the community at the same
time. I always have tea, coffee and bannock available for
everyone, and it's nice to know
when a pair is done, a child,
who we don't know, will be
putting on warm mitts."

Organizing committee member Gleason Uppahuak expects the official invitations to the
2015 Jon Lindell Memorial senior men's hockey tournament in Arviat will start to go out during the next week.
Senior men's tournament
approaching
Arviat
The first major senior men's hockey tournament in the
Kivalliq region is drawing near.
Organizing committee member Gleason Uppahuak said
invitations to the Jon Lindell Memorial (JLM) senior men's
hockey tournament should go out during the next week.
The JLM is scheduled to be held in Arviat from Jan. 23
to 25.
Tournament organizers are hoping for an eight-team
field at this year's event, including Kivalliq hockey power
houses Rankin Inlet and Repulse Bay, as well as the Karetakers family-orientated squad.
Arviat will be going all out at this year's JLM, trying to
win its third straight championship.
Man dies
in snowmobile accident
Whale Cove
A 30-year-old man is dead following a snowmobile accident on the land near Whale Cove this past week.
The Whale Cove detachment of the RCMP received a
call at about 9:30 a.m. on Dec. 11 reporting a single vehicle
snowmobile accident on the sea ice close to the community.
The man was found at the scene of the accident and did
not survive his injuries.
The RCMP's investigation into the fatality was ongoing
as of press time.
The police did not release the name of the deceased.
Hockey gear distributed to youth
Baker Lake
Youth hockey players in Baker Lake benefited from a
shipment of equipment donated to the community by Barry
Hickman of Northern Dreams - A Smile 1 Skate at a time.
Hickman, a retired RCMP officer living in British Columbia, used to work in the North and recognized the need
for hockey equipment in many communities.
He collects the gear and sends it North from his B.C.
garage.
Calm Air has shipped the equipment to both Baker Lake
and Arviat. The airline has another six pallets of equipment
waiting for Whale Cove's arena to be finished.
Early presents for students
Repulse Bay
It was a special day for students at Tusarvik School in
Repulse Bay (Naujaat) this past Friday, Dec. 12.
School staff members helped Santa distribute a large
delivery of Christmas presents sent to Repulse youth from
the City of Champions Lion's Club in Edmonton, Alta.
The Edmonton Lion's Club has been making the annual
shipment of Christmas presents to Repulse for more than a
decade.
Elder's party set
Rankin Inlet
The annual Rankin Inlet Elder's Christmas Party is
being held at the community hall this coming Friday, Dec.

Getting their groove on
Dance classes huge hit at Tusarvik School in Repulse
by Darrell Greer
Northern News Services
Repulse Bay
Students at Tusarvik
School and other youths in
the community were groovin'
to the beat in Repulse Bay
(Naujaat) this past week.
The hamlet brought in
the Royal Winnipeg Ballet
School's freestyle battle dancer Eugene (GeNie) Baffoe
to conduct a number of workshops with local youths.
Baffoe, originally from
Montreal, Que., has been
training in the field of hip-hop
for the past decade.
The past six years have
seen Baffoe teach, choreograph and direct at a professional level, and he now heads
Winnipeg's urban dance drew
B.O.S.S. (Built on Self-Success) Dance Team.
Baffoe spent six days in
Repulse focused on introducing and having youths
understand movement, relate
it to music, and bring the two
together in harmony.
He held classes during the
day for students and evening
workshops for those interested in the community who no
longer attend school.
Baffoe said with younger
kids, his approach is about
understanding music and how
your body moves to it.
He said he focuses on a
simple approach, such as stepping to each side and clapping
on beat.
"I want them to try to
understand how to clap with
the music, and get their bodies moving in a way they
normally wouldn't during a
normal school week," said
Baffoe.
"With the older crowd,
who may have a bit more
experience with dance, we
do a little more complicated
movements combining basic
and advanced movements to
the music.
"I want to get them moving
their bodies in quicker ways."
Baffoe said the Repulse
youths were keenly interested
in tuning their body movements to the music, and their
energy was through the roof.
He said he enjoys showing
young kids how to do their
own dance walk during a routine day.
"They can do it when
they're playing music or just
hearing it in their head.
"The older kids were interested in breakdancing, so I
taught them some head spins
and basic moves they could
keep working on after I left.
"There are many kids into
sports here, and you need to
be quick on your feet to get
around a defender or block an
opponent with the ball.
"There are a lot of times
in hip-hop when your feet are
moving very quickly and, if
you practice that, it can go a
long way toward improving
your sporting life."
Grade 7 student Melanie
Yank, who turns 12 on Dec.
19, said she really enjoyed
the dance classes, especially
learning how to do crazy feet.
She said the classes taught
her a lot about how to move
through different beats.
"It takes a lot of courage to
really dance, so you can't be
shy about doing it," said Yank.
"I love music, especially
when it has a good beat, and
I've been dancing since I was

Tusarvik School in Repulse Bay this past week.
three, so this was a great week
for me.
"My friends and I talked a
lot about Eugene's classes, and
we were redoing the moves
trying to remember them all.
"We'll keep practising all
the moves he taught us while
he was here."
Naujaat SAO Kowesa Etitiq said Baffoe's visit came
about as a result of hamlet
council wanting to focus on
youth and recreation programming for the community.
He said council passed a
resolution this past January
called the Repulse Bay Community Youth Development
Initiative, which instructed
him to come up with positive
youth programming.
"Council wanted to see
more opportunities for growth
among our youth," said Etitiq.
"At first, we were looking
at a hip-hop group from Iqaluit, when the Royal Winnipeg
Ballet School was suggested
to us. I contacted Kelly Bale
at the school and she got in
touch with Eugene for us.
"It all fell in place from
there and it was very, very
successful for us."
Tusarvik vice-principal
Julia MacPherson agreed,
saying the students responded
very well to Baffoe.
She said his passion and
enthusiasm for dance was
contagious throughout the
week, and everyone had a
great time in his classes.
"The kids at Tusarvik are all music fanatics
and Eugene's visit created a real buzz in the
school," said MacPherson.
"Everyone either owns
their own iPod or shares
someone else's between classes.
"Music is definitely
important here, and student
participation and excitement
over these classes was really
quite something.
"They didn't want Eugene
to leave, and I had to pull him
away at the end of his final
dances with the grades, so
it was a great experience for
them."

"The idea is to have parity, whatever the number of

that's the way we'll approach

Dean said Yellowknife,
Ottawa and Rankin indicated
they'd return again in 2015.
He said it was the first
time playing in Iqaluit
during the past 12 years for
some Yellowknife players,
and as much as 15 years for
others.
"Iqaluit got very strong
goaltending from Paul Dainton, who used to play in the
AHL (parts of three seasons
with the Springfield Falcons),
and they showed themselves
to be resilient, too.
"They only went 1-3 in the
round robin, but they were
the hungriest team in the
playoffs.
"It was a well-deserved
win.
"I found it to be a lot of
fun, as an organizer and a
player, and I'm anxious to
move forward with this tournament."
