Oyen Briefs: Upcoming Farmers Market season
By Diana Walker
I will not be in the Oyen Echo office the first week in June and have changed my regular June 12 visit to Thursday, June 13. You can contact me by cell at 403-664-6600 or email oyenecho@telus.net. I will also be in the office the next morning, Friday, June 14, until noon.
Farmers and ranchers welcomed the recent showers and downpours. The countryside is so green.
Happy belated birthday wishes go out to one of the honourees at the Royal Canadian Legion #208. Lauretta Thygesen of Calgary celebrated her 98th birthday on May 14.
Congrats to not only SCHS grads but all the grads within Special Areas 2, 3 and 4 and the MD of Acadia #34.
