THAT OLD BLACK GOLD IS RUNNING - Harvest 2015 is well in hand and the weatherman has cooperated so far. The hot, humid weather ripened the crops and this season can be considered ‘an early harvest’ on most accounts. Pictured in the combine are Neal and Chelsea Hainsworth, taking off a canola field ‘in the mountain’ south of Deloraine. PHOTO/COURTESY LORI MAIN
Summer Day Camp wraps up by Samantha Janssens, Recreation summer student Deloraine Winchester Tourism and Recreation ran summer day camps for kids aged 3-12 this past summer. This is the first summer a program of this nature has been offered in the community and it was very well received! Throughout the summer 39 kids participated in different sessions that ran July 6 through until August 13. Liza Park (EDO/Recreation Director) and Sam Janssens (summer student) went on three day trips with the kids to the International Peace Garden, Souris, and Old Deloraine on Mondays in July. Sam also ran three-day camps for six weeks on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Five of these camps were ran in Town and one camp was held at Lake Metigoshe. The kids had the opportunity to participate in a variety of activities including crafts, cooking, outdoor games, board games, scavenger hunts, and theme days including Science Day and Disney Day. Day camp offered the kids a chance to learn and develop new skills while having fun with their peers. The program was really lucky this year with the weather and we were able to spend most of our days outdoors! Deloraine Winchester Tourism and Recreation have a number of thank yous that made their summer program possible this year. Appreciation is extended to Wayne Innes and the Handivan for taking us on our day trips. The kids really enjoyed riding in the Handivan. Also appreciation to the Harvest Church and Angela Lay for the use of the craft room at the church as well as the kitchen facilities for our kids in the kitchen program. Thank you to Boundary Co-op for donation of product for our kids in the kitchen program. A shout out to Rob Maynard for being our projectionist for our movie days at the Theatre and to the Pool staff for supervising and lifeguarding during our mornings spent at the Pool. Finally, thank you to the RM of Deloraine Winchester for the use of their facilities and resources for day camp!
