Congratulations to Riley Riddell and Jana Wlock on the birth of their daughter. She was born on Jan. 8 and weighed seven pounds, two ounces. She has been named Scottie Jean. Riley Riddell was raised in Wawota and returned to teach school here until last year when he moved to Regina.
Wendy Brehaut has secured a position at Moose Mountain Meats as the storefront customer service person. She will be missed at the Village Inn.
Three Wawota residents celebrated their birthdays on Jan. 11. Happy birthday to Lois Greenbank, who celebrated her 75th birthday. A small group of friends gathered at an outdoor celebration.
Happy birthday to our nephew Darren Olson, who had his 60th birthday. You know you are getting old when someone you remember as a baby celebrates his 60th birthday.
And a happy birthday to my co-worker Terri Tomlinson, who has done an exemplary job at the post office during this extraordinarily busy season.Â
Today I was sorting through some newspapers from 2000-2001 and came across a clipping about Darren Olson getting a perfect hand in cribbage against Keith Olson. (He didn't win the game, though). To show that history does repeat itself, Kenton Olson got a 28 hand in cribbage while playing a game against Keith Olson. Apparently, Kenton did eke out a win.
Any help with the news would be appreciated. Please phone 1-306-739-2519 or send a email to [email protected].
