We are noticing the reduced sunlight hours meaning summer is coming to a close and fall is on its way. Many are hopeful for extended nice weather after experiencing a dry and windy spring and not always the nicest weather this summer.
We have seen lots of haying activity in the area, as the conditions has been favourable for it. Let’s hope we get some small shots of rain to alleviate the dryness, so harvest can continue without some of the weather conditions we experienced last year. Please be patient on the roads, as farm equipment will definitely be on the move and they are not there to impede our travels. Slow down and enjoy the scenery.
With this year’s spring winds and several storms that included high winds, our parks and recreation department has spent more than 15 days of summer work on tree clean up. This is in addition to painting playgrounds and bleachers as well as other maintenance work.
The new dressing room and meeting room at the curling club is under construction, which will be a welcome addition for curlers this season.
The Unity museum is still open with sanitizing stations and distancing protocols in place. They were thrilled to have a new sign erected and the quieter summer allowed plenty of time for upkeep and maintenance.
Here’s hoping this finds you all safe, healthy and socially distanced. Until next week ...
