The Waseca Recreation Board hosted a barbecue at AG Foods in Maidstone June 5. Proceeds will go to community projects.
It is once again clear and sunny Monday morning. Although not a great amount, we appreciated the rain showers that fell each day for a few days. The rain was much needed.
Congratulations to Walter and Joyce Campbell who celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary June 13. A come and go tea was held at their new home in Lloydminster and hosted by their family.
Walter and Joyce were married in the Waseca Anglican Church in the spring of 1955. They moved to the Battlevale District south of Waseca in 1961, along with their family of three, Sharon, Ross and Barbara. The last number of years they have lived just north of Waseca.
They are now settled in their new home in Lloydminster. We wish them many more years of good health and happiness in their new location.
Chuckwagon races are being enjoyed by many these days. Arlee Lumgair and Sandra Sutherland, accompanied by Jaco Coetzee, a trainee with Vic Holt, travelled to North Battleford June 7 to take in the races there. It was an enjoyable event, especially for Jaco, who really enjoyed this typically Canadian sport.
Ashley McFadyen was once again taking part in track and field at the provincials held in Yorkton June 5 and 6. She placed very well and is to be congratulated on her efforts.
Ashley McFadyen and Josie Weisner were chosen to represent Maidstone High School at the National Student Leadership Conference to be held in Halifax in the fall. We will, no doubt, be hearing more about this event and wish Ashley and Josie all the best.
