First this week I would like to commend the many volunteers from this village and area who have done such a fantastic job of caring for the local cemetery and having the new location map erected so people can find their plots. It shows how co-operationÌýworks on such a project, even without their usual coffee breaks after the work is done each time.
The Remembrance Day service at the Meota CommunityÌýComplex will be held Nov. 11, at 11:45 a.m. The hall will open at 11:30 a.m. All provincialÌýguidelines will be followed and wearing masks is recommended. Because of COVID-19, no lunch will be served afterward.
The Walk Walk program will start up in the Meota Community Complex at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays. It will consist of walking about three miles along to a workout DVD program with stretching, cardio, warm ups and cool downs For more information call Elaine at 306-317-7746.

Through the SaskTelÌýPioneers Program, volunteers have donated 606 laptops, iPads and mobile devices free of charge to K-12 schools and libraries, and to long term-care facilities, including Cut Knife Health Complex, in Saskatchewan. This group of volunteersÌýcollects and repairs donated computer equipment from government and private sector sources and distributes them free of charge to needy places. What a great program. Many are benefitted from it and appreciate it dearly.
