May 9, the Radisson Museum had Grade 12 students from Trek School in Regina stop in for a tour of the museum and to write up reports on their visit.

A few ladies from Radisson served the group a hot meal at noon before they travelled on to the North Battleford Western Development Museum. This is the fourth year the group has stopped in at the Radisson Museum and they thoroughly enjoy the visit. The museum is run by Norm Hiebert and his wife Barb Cousins along with Kirk Maxwell and they have done an excellent job of turning the former United Church into a historic museum that relives the past years of Radisson and district.

Curtis and Elizabeth Torrens and their son Ryley (2), who have moved in to their new home on the farmyard of Wendell and Judy Dyck, are welcomed to the Borden district

Congratulations to Al and Denise (Fritsch) Nichol, proprietors of the Borden Art and Eatery, who were married May 22 in Saskatoon by Gayle Wensley. A community gift was presented to them May 20 by Sandra Long.

There were 24 out to the Borden Seniors' potluck supper and May birthday celebration May 25. Blowing out the candles on the decorated cake brought by Ann Brand were Eileen Petrun and Jean Graham. After the meal card games, crokinole and bean bag toss were played by those present.

The ecumenical church service June 5 in conjunction with Diefenbaker Days is at 11:30 a.m. in the Borden Seniors' Room. There is a 90th birthday party for Marcella Kulig in the community centre at 2 p.m.
