Easter has come and gone and it’s now officially time to welcome spring and summer, even if that means enduring some confusion as Mother Nature tries to figure out if it’s still winter or definitely spring.
I have never seen combines in action in April next to a field that is getting seeding equipment ready to roll. A big shout out to our farmer friends for once again enduring weather woes and persevering to complete the tasks at hand.
Congratulations to the Unity Music Festival committee on another successful event and to Shauna Hammer for being named volunteer of the year.

Coffee row folks have thoroughly enjoyed reviewing the numerous events that have taken place in Unity over the last six weeks or so. In addition to spring seeding, they are also talking of their anticipation for upcoming sports seasons whether it be the Riders, the Jays or local teams. There is always coffee and laughter and a promise to meet again tomorrow, as well as plenty of room for folks to join in. I always appreciate this tradition in our community. So you see we keep busy in Unity with activities and wisdom from our friends on coffee row. Until next time …
