Borden and District News: Firefighers honoured for long service

Radisson celebrates new sidewalks.

BORDEN — Winning the Borden Lions Chase the Ace draw Nov. 2 was Jamie Brandrick of Borden. The Ace of Spades was not drawn so the jackpot keeps growing.

Close to 30 members of the Borden Friendship Club travelled to Maymont Seniors’ Club on Nov. 1 for a delicious ham and roasted potato supper along with a great apple crisp dessert. Entertaining for the evening were Ben and Lorraine Stenerson from Sonningdale, singing a variety of country favourites.

The Borden Fire and Rescue held a successful steak night in the Borden Community Centre Nov. 4, with several long service awards handed out. The 50/50 draw of $451 went to Kim Loessin of Radisson. There were four bottles drawn for and the main raffle draw of a Pit Boss smoker and Berkshire/Hereford hog (cut and wrapped) went to John A. Worne of Lethbridge, Alta., a relative of Sean Stacey, a Borden firefighter.

The Town of Radisson received $25,183 from the Province of Saskatchewan SGI Traffic Safety Fund this past summer and with the money they constructed new sidewalks in the town. At the ribbon cutting Nov. 4, Mayor Peter Reddekopp cut the ribbon which was held by Deputy Mayor Robin Baker and Councillor Shawn Mitchler. Thanks to the funding Radisson now have some new and safer sidewalks for the residents to enjoy.
