OYEN BRIEFS: Margaret Berg wins Oyen Lions 50/50

By Diana Walker

At their organization meeting October 8, the Oyen Town Council appointed me as one of their representatives on the Big Country Regional Recycling Society for another 3-year term. I appreciate the vote of confidence.  If you have concerns about recycling or Oyen’s transfer station, send me an email at fwalker1@telus.net

Margaret Berg $10,000 richer: The Oyen Lions 50/50 draw took place on December 31, 2024 at the Big Country Agriculture Society’s Crossroads Centre at 11:30 p.m. following a very successful Happy Bucking New Year’s Eve bull riding competition. Congratulations to Margaret (Lijdsman) Berg of Medicine Hat, winner of the $10,000 cash. The Oyen Lions really appreciated all those who helped sell the tickets. The profits earned from this endeavor will help the Lions support the many projects and community appeals that they deal with every year.

Big Country Agricultural Society’s Happy Bucking New Year 50/50 of $2,415 was won by Tami-Jo Brewin of Taber. BCAS proceeds from the 50/50 will go toward purchase of gates and panel for future events.
