Sibbald News: Sibbald Games attracts 38 competitors

By Lee Switzer

The longer daylight hours and being on the same time as our neighbours to the east sure feels great.

Last Saturday, March 15, Sibbald Community Hall was a bustling place! Thirty-eight people competed in the second Sibbald Games. Teams were from Alsask and Marengo, Acadia Valley, Sibbald, Medicine Hat, and lots of places in between. Lots of laughter and fun was had as six teams competed in various events. Ski/sloshing, beer curling (on an ice surface), nail pounding, and backing a tractor with a trailer through an obstacle course were just a few of the events.

A concession was held throughout the day, and a delicious beef supper kept everyone full while the bar helped quench the thirst. Everyone had a blast and was highly impressed with the event organizers and all the volunteers who made a day like this a success.

The Sibbald Community Club's annual general meeting will be held next Wednesday, March 26, starting at 7:00. We hope to see you there.

Take care everyone.
