After June 28, students will be free to enjoy the summer months. Make good use of your time, everyone!
Beginning July 14 the “playground group” will be providing activities, including crafts and games, at the Waseca Community Centre from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Lunch will be provided for all participants and all children are welcome to participate. Contact Sandra Sutherland for more information.
This coming week a new furnace will be installed in Waseca Hall. As you probably noticed in last week’s paper, Rodney Weisner, chairman of the Waseca recreation board, was shown presenting “fish fry” proceeds to three organizations, one of which was the Waseca Hall. The new furnace completes the hall project.
All local volunteer organizations worked together for this event and so the proceeds were divided amongst groups to help with ongoing projects.
The Father's Day luncheon held Father’s Day at the Waseca Community Centre was enjoyed by all who came. The new barbecue purchased by the recreation board was used to provide delicious food for the meal.
At noon the raffle winners were drawn. Prize one, a handmade quilt, beautifully made by Arlee Lumgair, was won by Josh Kwasney of Porcupine Plain. The quilt was of log cabin design and was queen size. The retail value of the quilt was $800.
Second prize, a Super Sky fire pit with spark guard and cooking grill, valued at $365, was won by Ken Ford of Lloydminster. Congratulations to both winners and to all those who assisted with and supported the annual Father's Day raffle.
Waseca now has an animal control officer. Sabra Patmore is filling this much needed position.
We have been appreciating the rain showers experienced the last few days. All gardens and crops are showing the results of the rains with some great growth.
Some little animal must like the small ripe tomatoes as much as I do. They seem to be partially eaten while still on the vines.
