We wanted moisture and boy, did we get it! It is white, but at least something! Big hats off to the Snow Angels that went around town digging residents out! We really do have a lot of caring people that help each other!

Also hats off to several Acadia Valley residents that have been helping some Oyen Charities by working at the casino in Medicine Hat for them.

There are still tickets available for the Steak ‘n Lobster night on Nov. 19th. Pick up at the MD office!

Several people have been infected with Covid recently. Reminds us to be more diligent in sanitizing, washing hands and staying home if sick. The flu season is also upon us. Vaccinations for both are available at the Pharmacy and the Health Unit.

Lucy Swanston and Jake Dyck visited last week and delivered their famous fruit cakes.

Warren Peers School Remembrance Day Service

Warren Peers School Remembrance Day Service.

On Tuesday, November 8th, Warren Peers School held a small Remembrance Day Service. The public was welcome and we were happy to see a few community members in attendance. We would like to thank Mrs. Gwen Gustafson for playing the piano and Mrs. McCurdy for organizing the grade 1-6 student presentations. The junior high students laid the wreaths, shared a veteran’s story and a prayer. After the two minutes of silence, our elementary students did an amazing job reciting Remembrance Day poems, singing songs and playing the chimes. The service concluded with the singing of God Save the King. Thank you to everyone who joined and participated in our service WE WILL REMEMBER.

Have a great week!
