MAYFAIR — A few family members celebrate birthdays this month. Among them are second oldest son, Greg, who is a chartered accountant in Saskatoon and son-in-law, Kinley, a carpenter business owner (Nomad Construction) in Maymont.
In preparation for large events such as a snowmobile rally, the head committee has to start printing posters, arranging advertising, preparing the trail routes, obtaining permission from farmers who own the land, roping in a slough of volunteers and the list goes on and on. Most important is the standby medical team in case of an accident. So, with this all said to clarify what I submitted to the newspaper last week, the answer is "sorry," the Rabbit Lake snowmobile association will not by sponsoring their annual rally again this year. There was word that perhaps with the abundance of snow and enthusiastic riders it could still be a go. I've checked with reliable sources and this is not happening. With this pandemic still on, one can't plan anything too far in advance.
Happy 50th wedding anniversary greetings to my neighbours Lorna (nee Lehman) and Russell Buziak. They had a double wedding with Lorna's brother Jim and Dorothy (nee Adamus) Lehman. Buziaks still farm by Whitkow and Lehmans have resided at Jackfish Lake at Meota for about 30 years. Wishing these couples many more, happy, blessed years together.
Get well wishes to some local people who are experiencing medical problems. They have to get booked in for appointments with specialists and the waiting lists get longer and longer every day. As we age, hip and knee replacements are common practises. It's best not to venture outdoors too far, slip and fall on icy surfaces, so being indoors when it's cold is a little more comforting.
