Highway 378 was closed for a few days while there was an investigation carried out in an old two-storey house. A book, 鈥淪askatchewan Ghost Houses,鈥 names this building as a ghost site.

Condolences to Helen Stolakoko, five children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren on the passing of Raymond Stolakoko of Saskatoon. He was a teacher at Mayfair Central School for many years, teaching the Grade 2 class. Prior to that he taught in Whitkow as a young man. Ray and Helen still owned farmland where oldest son Karpo and family resided for about 30 years. Ray was a man who brought much joy and positivity into the lives of others.
