听听听听听听听听 Two 16-year-old students from Germany joined Past District Governor Lion Dennis Feduk for two of their three weeks in Canada as part of the Youth Camp and Exchange Program sponsored by Lions International.
听听听听听听听听 Leon Dreier lives near Munich Germany and Felix Kerber is from near Cologne, Germany. The two young men joined Lions Club members for their very first wiener roast at Lions Park on August 7.
听听听听听听听听 During the first and third week of their three-week adventure they stayed with Feduk, where they were able to experience many of the things Saskatchewan residents take for granted.
听听听听听听听听 They went water skiing, tubing, riding in the side by side thru the Moose Mountains, flying in a plane, swimming at the Crescent Point Leisure Complex pool, the Rusty Relics Museum, Cannington Manor, riding on a zero-turn mower, a tractor and saw the butchering set up at the Larry Brady farm, watched 鈥淢en in Black International鈥� at the Prairie Dog Drive-In, spent a day at Kenosee Super Slides and had a tour through the Qu鈥橝ppelle Valley.
听听听听听听听听 The young men did agree that one of the best things about their visit to Saskatchewan was the strawberry and rhubarb and saskatoon berry pies, made by Carlyle鈥檚 own Pieman, Dennis Feduk.
听听听听听听听听 While at the Camp with other exchange students at Lac Pelletier, near Swift Current, they took part in volunteer work at East End, visited Scotty the T-rex, the Cypress Hills, went zip lining, saw a moose, mule deer, and bison, rode go-carts and did an eco-tour of Grasslands Provincial Park. This camp hosted 32 youth from 13 different countries.
