MAIDSTONE — July 25, a number of Maidstone seniors attended a bash for Vic Hult’s 70th birthday. Family and friends from near and far roasted and toasted the birthday boy. Waseca Hall was decorated for this special occasion and the Yellowhead Ramblers orchestra was in attendance providing an enjoyable evening for the large crowd that was in attendance. Best wishes, Vic, for many more happy occasions.

When driving around town I noticed the water park was well on its way to completion. Also the new police station is going ahead with construction. But most pleasing of all is the addition to our beautiful and well used parks. We have a family of five ducks on loan for the summer and a floatingdog house, complete with ramp for shelter at night. The latter was donated by Penny Wall. Some skeptics think is will never be used by the ducks, but time will tell. Our campground is full to overflowing with RVs.
Cards were played July 27 with a perfect score in cribbage for hostess Dorothy Schwartz, who supplied lunch. Low score went to Dorothy Kissick.
