Summer Rec Report Marks Last Column
The writer notes this is the final Summer Rec Report due to a slow period in the department. Over the past two weeks the soccer trip to Souris on August 3 brought fun despite no stated win.

A lunch at Minaki Lodge stood out, though the writer jokes about an embarrassing incident with a waitress.
