Recently, brush around the Grange Hall was cut to clear the grounds a bit, but members were busy with many other things and hadn’t been able to make time to haul it away. Community residents Greg and Brenda Wiebe volunteered to haul the brush pile away and things look much better around the hall now. Thank you, Wiebes, for helping the Grange out. We appreciate you.
Here’s an update regarding the Glenwood Women’s Club community Easter Egg Hunt coming up on Saturday, April 4th. This year the park will be divided into the following groups: preschool, kindergarten through second grade, and third through fifth grade. The hunt will begin at 10:00 a.m. The Easter Bunny will be there to greet the little kids and pose for photos with them. Many of the eggs are specially marked with money amounts or the words “Bunny Bucks.” Those eggs can be redeemed at the Women’s Club table. A huge thanks goes to Claude McKenzie at the Glenwood General Store for, once again, donating Bunny Bucks, which can be spent at the store. Thank you for all you do for our community, Claude.
The Glenwood Grange #94 March meeting will take place at 1:30 p.m. on Sunday, the 29th. All in the community are welcome to attend to learn more about the Grange.
For those who like to plan ahead, here’s something you might want to put on your calendar. The Hell Roaring and Bird and Fraser annual shareholders’ meeting will take place on Monday, April 13th at the Grange Hall. I’ll include a reminder closer to that date, but this is a first heads’ up.
I’m sure you’ve noticed by now, our school is in the middle of spring break. There are lots of kids riding non-motorized and motorized bikes and walking around town, so please watch out for them, because they don’t always remember to watch for traffic.
Let me know if you have anything you would like included in next week’s news.
