It’s been a warm and windy week here. The grass is starting to turn green, and the gophers seem to be out in full force. Farming season is almost in full swing. Be on the lookout for slow-moving farming equipment on highways and backroads.

Mark your calendars; there’s a come-and-go shower planned on Sunday, June 13th, for Rachel Bigelow (Bride elect of Reed Didychuk). 1:00 p.m. - 2:30 p.m., 110 2nd Ave. West. (The Turner’s House).

There’s a town-wide Garage Sale planned for Saturday, May 15th. Contact Chynna Kuhn to register at 403-664-8592.

The Rec. Club is selling 50/50 tickets again this month. The next draw will be made on June 7th. You can get your tickets at The Store, Skappak’s Farm Supply or from a Rec. Club member.

We send our condolences to Wally and Freddi Skappak on the passing of their niece Rosemary Koch of Calgary.

Sending well wishes to Sandy Dancey, recovering at home after having surgery in Calgary last week.

Acadia Valley broke ground on the new hall today. A small ceremony was held with M.D. of Acadia CAO Jason Wallsmith.

Thanks for reading this week. I will end with a quote from Oprah Winfrey, “I will end with a quote from The Beatles, “Here comes the sun, and I say, It’s all right.”
