Many Local Tales From Currie and MacGregor Districts May Windstorm Damage
A May wind storm caused damage to television antennas while over the weekend residents from Currie S D, MacGregor, Portage and Winnipeg visited relatives. The community notes many weddings, birthdays, and family gatherings including Henry Koldyk's RCAF posting, Hulme Pogue wedding guests, and Miss Heather Lamont’s injury with a recovery ahead. The period also records Scout camping, school events, a quilt raffle for MacGregor Hospital, and a push for rain to start crops and garden growth.
