It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Many homes at Good Spirit Acres are decorated with lights and greetings. All sorts of baking is 小蓝视频 done in preparation for the season of hosting and giving鈥� Remember, Christmas calories don't count!
We keep hoping that we are going to have a White Christmas, but with the mild weather that we have been having, who knows?
The Christmas greetings board is up at the Good Spirit Market and there is still time to have your Christmas wishes placed.
We will need snow and colder weather before ice can be made at the skating rink. Chris Leis has volunteered to take on this job again this year and Craig Ostafie and Brad Parker are his helpers. Thank you so much Chris!
More snow is also needed before any cross-country ski trails can be set.
Fall work in the hamlet was completed 鈥� the snow fence is up and cattails have been removed from in front of the culverts. We are ready for winter which involves regular snow cleaning and gravelling as needed. Council members are keeping track of any coyote sightings 鈥� so please report it if any have been seen.
John Neufeld, our RM councillor, reports that he is still on the Canora fire board and the library board for the RM of Good Lake. The RM workers have made sure waterways are clear for drainage, and they have changed the equipment used to allow them to go from gravelling to snow plowing.
Lynn MacDonald, president of the Good Spirit Community Assoc., is finding it hard to carry on with activities with so few people on her committee. She has worked hard to organize the Christmas supper this week, going door to door, selling tickets, as well as organizing the caterers and setting up for the supper.
She mentioned that Snow-a-Rama will be coming up in February and volunteers will be needed.
It is sad to say, but if more people don't show an interest in working on the Community Association executive, it might actually fold. Please give Lynn a call if you would be willing to take a term on the Association.
A hug is the perfect Christmas gift 鈥� one size fits all and it's easily returned!
Merry Christmas from your friends at Good Spirit Acres.
