Local groups mark Easter with bread making and Pysanka decorating as Evangeline Rebekah Lodge celebrates 80 years since its 1913 charter. An employee becomes a theft suspect in a Parkway Inn cash case of over 3900 loonies. Other items include new bulk fertilizer capacity, a Dauphin hatchery outlet shipment of 2300 chicks, and various open houses and constructions around Roblin and district.
