WAWOTA - The Wawota Village Inn and the Public Library co-sponsored a gingerbread house decorating contest on Dec. 2.

Six family teams participated. They were supplied with all the ingredients and had one hour to complete their houses. Winners of the contest were Sorenson-Lobert family in first (traditional gingerbread house), Team Ethier second (candy explosion) and Team Porter-Weatherald third (The Lake).

Kristjan Hebert, president of the Hebert Group, was in Calgary to receive the award for being chosen as EY Entrepreneur of the Year. He was one of the 7 Prairie region entrepreneurs across Canada to win. He and family members attended the ceremony.

The Wawota Museum held their annual Christmas tea and bake sale last Friday. The attendance was down due to cold weather but there was a lot of visiting and the bake table did a brisk business. Tickets were sold on two large boxes full of prizes.

Shirley Corkish has returned from Cottage Grove, Minn., where she celebrated American Thanksgiving with Jeff, Laura, Owen, Addie and Mason. 

While there she was able to attend several of her grandchildren’s hockey games. Grandson Owen played his first game for the Park Varsity Hockey Team and gave grandma a special treat as she watched him score his first goal, where he was then presented with the puck, and he went on to score three more goals in the two hockey games Shirley attended.

Sympathy to John and Pauline White and other family members on the death of John's uncle, Ken Bratt of Milestone. He passed away on Nov. 24 at the age of 91 years. He was married to Margaret White, George White's sister.

Congratulations to Wanda Wielgoz, who has retired from the Maryfield Post Office as of Nov. 25. She spent 42 years serving Maryfield and district. Happy retirement, Wanda.

Ken and Denise Dash have moved from their farm in the area to Kipling.
