Thanks to Chris Leis and Kevin Coleridge the skating rink and cross country ski trails on the golf course are ready to go and are being enjoyed by residents.
The local snowmobile trails are signed and groomed. Please ride with care as there are areas of open water. Please help us keep the privilege of riding in and out of our community by observing the 40 km speed limit and remember – “QUIET IN, QUIET OUT”.
Winter hours for the Good Spirt Market are 9:00 - 6:00 on Sunday to Thursday and 9:00 – 7:00 on Friday and Saturday. Fern and her sister, Margaret, have once again been busy making pies and invite you to stop in for coffee and homemade pie.
