Indian Days Race Entry Down To Six Finishers
Opasquia Indian Days features a 120 mile no portage canoe race with only six entries this year down from nine last year and six fewer than 1971. Thousands attend the three day event from opening ceremonies to Saturday awards as weather barely disrupts other activities. A tornado in Carrot River Valley causes farm and property damage despite successful races here and at Clearwater Lake with boats, trees, and structures affected as residents endure a stormy Saturday afternoon.

Library Board chair Mari Walton and Kelsey Recreation Commission chair Lyall Gardiner met last Thursday to urge reconsideration after the school division offered land at Red Birch School for a library. The division also approved land near Margaret Barbour Collegiate for library construction, and the council passed a resolution to build there.
