WAWOTA - Hope you all tuned it to Family Feud Canada on Monday night. It was exciting to see the Kay family participate as they have ties to Wawota.

Gerald and Kris Duff have returned home after enjoying a three-week holiday to Puerto Vallarta and Playa del Carman, Mexico. 

Norman and Jackie Oliver welcomed a first grandchild on April 1. He weighed five pounds, 11 ounces, and has been named Baz Oliver Brooks Fletcher. His parents are Jessica Oliver and Brooks Fletcher. 

Several groups who have not been able to plan fundraising events have held raffles. The Forum offered two one-half sides of beef. Lucky winners were Neil Weatherald and Michele Green.   

The Royal Canadian Legion in Wawota raffled off two gift certificates, one for Bigway and one for Moose Mountain Meats. The winners were Karlene Krupa and Marion Husband. The Lions will be raffling off a 16-cubic-foot deep freeze (sponsored by Fairway Sales) filled with food on May 1. 

Hanna Johnson and the Kleiter U21 curling team enjoyed last week at the nationals in Stratford, Ont. They had a respectable showing with a 5-3 record. What a great experience for these young people.

What a great event the Spaghetti Western was. It was held at the Wawota Town Hall on April 2. A decorated hall, live music and a bar, kids’ games, a photo booth, tattoos and supper (spaghetti and meat sauce, Caesar salad, cheese sticks and decorated cupcakes). After supper four large prizes were awarded to lucky participants.

The success of the evening was due to the many volunteers and Sarah Weatherald, who came up with the idea. Proceeds will be put towards expenses incurred for enlarging the library.

Tannis (Niebergall) Chapman of Regina welcomed her first grandchild, who was born on Feb. 3. She weighed seven pounds, eight ounces, and has been named Hadlee Adeline Erb. Her parents are Rylee Chapman and Jerred Erb of Weyburn. Hadlee is also a great-granddaughter for Stan and Bev Niebergall of Wawota.
