The hockey rink is hoping to have ice in by mid-October. The ice times have booked up quickly this year and there aren't many spots open from Monday to Thursday. The Mustangs schedule has been posted on the Big Six website. They will play an exhibition game at home against Oxbow on Saturday, Oct. 27 at 8 p.m. Their home opener is set for Friday, Nov. 9 at 8 p.m. against Bienfait. The Mini Mustangs initiation team will begin practicing on Oct. 17 if there are no delays with getting the ice in. They will host a home tournament on Saturday, Dec. 1.
The Midale Petroleum Storm novice team will also begin practicing soon as well. They are going to try and host a home tournament on Saturday, Dec. 8. The Midale Moose rec team will be starting soon and will be playing here on Fridays when the Mustangs aren't. When the Mustangs play on the Friday, the Moose will play on the Mondays.
As the rink is going to be quite busy this winter, the concession is in need of volunteers to help work it. They are asking for you to volunteer one day each month so the concession can stay open and rink rental fees can stay low.
If you are able to help out please call Marla Brasseur.
Volunteers are needed once again to provide the kids with the fluoride rinse program. Parents are needed to help with this program that takes place once a week. It takes about an hour of time to volunteer and the more parents that volunteer to do it, the fewer times they will have to do it. It works in a rotation.
This year the Grade 8 PAA class will set up an indoor greenhouse in the foyer of Midale Central School. They plan to grow a variety of vegetables and herbs in the greenhouse. The Grade 8 class is excited to get started on this project, but they will need some help with the supplies for making the greenhouse. They need metal halide lights (or any lights that are used for plant growth), medium to large size pots (no larger than a foot in diameter please), stakes for the plants, old newspapers and potting soil. If anyone has these or other supplies that they can donate until the end of the semester, please call Mr. Wagner at the school. The Grade 8 class would like to thank you in advance for any supplies or help that you can donate to the indoor greenhouse!
