WAWOTA - Wawota would like to welcome some more Ukranian families to our town. They are Mykailo and Yustena Ivasuityn (Lubov's parents), and Liubomyr (Luke) and Tatina Kuchma and their son, Maksym (friends of Andrii and Svitlana) and Taras Fedyshn (a friend of Alexandro).

We are pleased to be able to offer these families accommodations and eventually work.

The Wawota Public Library Book Club met at the library on April 24 to discuss their latest book Five Quarters of the Orange by Joanne Harris. It is a story of a young French girl who returns to her hometown, hoping that the locals won't recognize her as the daughter of an infamous woman who was responsible for a tragedy during the German occupation.

Congratulations to Karl Sauter, who was elected to the Canadian Western Agribition board of directors recently.

Welcome back to Janice Birnie, who has returned to Wawota for the summer. She spends the winter at her home in Hawaii.
