Midale (cpd) - Hopefully by publicaton time, the boil-water advisory will be lifted. There has been a boil-water advisory in place since June 10 when first there was a water main break in front of the rinks and then there was a break in the line that brings the water into Midale. Residents have been asked to boil their water for at least one minute before cooking, doing dishes, etc.

There has been a date change for the arrival of the Midale Lions Club equipment for the new Playground at Manley Park. They have a date of Thursday, July 18, as the date they will receive the equipment. They are looking for volunteers to help them get it all together on July 18 and 19. If you are available to help, please give Wayne Gust a call and he will keep you informed on the arrival of the equipment. The Lions raised the money through their bingos, steak supper, a few other fundraisers and a very generous private donation.
