It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!!
We got a good snowfall last weekend, so now the ground is covered and the snow SPARKLES with the sun shining on it.
Kevin Coleridge has volunteered to make the cross-country ski trails ...so everyone will be able to get their exercise this winter.
Chris Leis will be making the ice on the rink over at Spilchen Meadows. Volunteers will be greatfully accepted!!
The Christmas greeting board at the Good Spirit Market is filling up with nice messages for the holiday season! You still have time to add messages for $10 each, the money is used for Community Assoc. activities.
Our Christmas in November supper was a great success!! Our caterers, “3 G’friends” from Canora are highly recommended!! The Good Spirit Park hall was decorated in a Christmas theme, and everyone there enjoyed the evening. Door prizes made and donated by Jeanne Anderson were won by Ed Achtemichuk and Kevin Coleridge. A pretty bouquet, from the Comm. Assoc was won by 5 year old Thor Steiner, who promptly gave it to his mom Lana. So cute!!
The Comm. Assoc. is planning an afternoon of bowling in late January. The lottery grant covers the cost of bowling and shoe rental. (It is also the lottery grant that is paying for the tickets for the Arts Council tickets and the Gallagher Centre pool and flexihall gift cards.)
The Hamlet Board wants to welcome our newest member, Lana Steiner who will fill the recently vacated Board position. The notice for the nomination was posted for the required period of time and she was named to the Board by acclamation at a meeting on Nov. 12, 2014.
You may have noticed surveyors in the community as they are doing a detailed layout of our community. Once this is completed the Hamlet Board expects to have suggestions from an engineering company as how to solve some of the water problems in the community. The community can expect to hear about these improvements at the Spring Information meeting in May of 2015. The Board hopes to implement some of the changes starting next summer.
Thanks to the community members who assisted Barry Bradshaw and Terry Konkel install the winter fence along Capalano Drive. Thanks to Alf Dittrick, Sandy Konkel, Ed Park and Don Thompson.
Good Spirit Market winter hours are Sun to Thurs 9 AM to 6 PM and Fri and Sat. 9 AM to 7 PM. Pizza is available on Fri and Sat. Please order by 4 PM and pick up by 6 PM.
They will also be serving a variety menu this fall and winter. PLEASE call in advance to let them know you are coming! That’s 306-792-4663. Fern would like to thank the Federowich construction company for having their lunches at the Market this fall. Thanks also to Elaine and Lynn for helping out at this busy time! It was much appreciated! Fern mentioned that she will be serving hot lunches to snowmobilers this winter...so pray for snow!
The Comm. Assoc. would like to thank the staff at the Market for all they do for our community. They are the hub of this Hamlet, where you can stop for a coffee and visit, pick up your mail or a few groceries, fill up with gasoline or buy lottery tickets. They sell tickets for our community functions and allow us to advertise our upcoming events on their board. Always a smiling face at the Market!!
The happiest people don’t have the best of everything, they MAKE the best of everything!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone!
