The latest happenings in Alida.

ALIDA - The Alida Curling Club held an auction during their Curl for Cancer bonspiel in February. The final amount of $1,500 was donated to the Cancer Foundation of Saskatchewan to be used towards the purchase of a new breast screening bus. Much appreciation goes to all who donated and purchased during this event. 

Tony and Lil Blashko stopped at Moosomin Hospital on April 9 to visit her brother Ernest Lemieux. They then continued on to Alida where they had lunch and visited with Dianne Lemieux. They were returning from Shoal Lake, Man., to their home at Penticton, B.C.

Dale, Bill and Kathy Anthony attended the funeral service for their brother Wayne on April 13 in Moose Jaw. A burial service will be held sometime in May in Carnduff. Dale stayed for an extra week in Moose Jaw before returning home. On April 21, Dale’s nephew Greg and wife Monika Goddard travelled with Dale to Alida, stayed overnight and then continued on to their home in Ontario.

The Alida Rec Board’s third annual online auction was held April 14-16. It was a huge success. Merchandise was to be picked up on April 24. Once again, the rec board appreciates all your support during their fundraising events.

We wish to welcome Sean and Mona Magotioux to Alida. They have purchased the former Joe (Boodie) Lemieux house and will be making their new home there. Hope you folks will enjoy our little town. 

On April 20 Tim, Shelly and Ainsley Cowan travelled to Weyburn where Ainsley participated with her dance class in “De feet dance challenge” at the Artemis Dance Competition. The class received gold. Way to go.

Café 361 held a breakfast brunch on April 23 with a fairly good crowd in attendance. Delicious food as always. Let’s hope for another one in the near future.
