ALIDA — I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving weekend. We had an awesome Sunday dinner with family at Tim, Shelly and Ainsley Cowan’s in Alida. Attending were Lacie and Jesse (Regina), Jeff and Raylene (Regina), Kelsey and Steven (Estevan), Joyce and Jackie (Redvers), and Gray and Edel.
Gary and Brenda Junk spent some holiday time after harvest visiting at Sylvan Lake, Alta., with their family, Jody, Jill and boys, Kara and daughter before returning home.
It’s almost time for the Alida Haunted House and Escape Rooms to open. The spooks, goblins, ghosts, etc., are arriving daily, claiming their spots and setting up residence. They are waiting patiently for your visit. The dates we are open are Oct. 20 and 21 from 7-10 p.m.
We would ask that you call 306-485-7023 to book times for the escape rooms. Also, please note that an ATM is not available at the rink.
The next dates are Oct. 27 and 28 from 7-10 p.m., while Oct. 29, which is also the fun fair, hours will be from 1-3 p.m. Do make sure to bring the little ones, they will surely enjoy the games and treats available. We like to see you and your little ones all decked out in their finest attire and costumes.
See you at the rink for this spook-tacular event.
The weather has unfair towards the farmers. If it's not raining, it's foggy, cloudy and miserable. Hopefully it will soon turn for the better and those farmers who need to finish up their harvest can get back out in their fields.
Please remember to keep me informed as to any happenings to report in this column. I do need and appreciate your assistance. Contact me at 306-458-8561.
