WAWOTA - Wawota would like to welcome another Ukrainian family to our town. Aleksandro Panaiotis and Halyna Buzhdyhan, along with their daughter Viktoria, who is in Grade 8, are living in the former Eastland Home. I had a most pleasant visit with them last Sunday.

Watch for trick or treaters on Oct. 31. For those who do not want the cost or the effort of answering the door throughout the evening, UNICEF posters are for sale at the post office. They are $10 and all proceeds will be forwarded to UNICEF. A poster in your window will tell the children that you are not handing out treats.

Aldea Bengtson travelled to Regina last week where she attended the graduation from nursing school of Miah Gates daughter of Roger and Glenda Gates. While there she also visited with Roger and Glenda and daughter Sheila Cunningham and Liam.
