     Members of Carlyle’s Emergency Services teamed up on the evening of April 11 to raise the spirits of the residents of Carlyle and especially to show appreciation to the staff at the Moose Mountain Lodge. The convoy was led by Carlyle & R.M. #63 Fire and Rescue and was joined by Supreme Ambulance and Carlyle RCMP.
        The emergency vehicles assembled into a mini parade and drove past the west side of Moose Mountain Lodge, much to the delight of the staff and the residents, and then went on a whirlwind parade of the town. With lights flashing and sirens blaring, they were able to give those in the community a little excitement to break the boredom of having to spend Saturday night of the Easter weekend at home.
        The workers at the Moose Mountain Lodge are very important frontline workers, who have a very demanding regimental work detail to perform. The Lodge is currently on lockdown to all visitors and the awareness of these essential workers and their contribution are really under the radar when it comes to the vital service that they provide for the community’s seniors that reside at the care home.
        At this time it is very important to stay connected and let others know that they are greatly appreciated for the effort they have been tasked with during these unprecedented times.
                 Making it a regular occurrence to call a friend or a neighbour, and/or showing goodwill and appreciation to frontline workers will do wonders to keep everyone’s spirits up and is a conception that will see all of us through the coming weeks or months.
