Plane forced to land on grass after gear failure at Dauphin
Dan Bankert of La Ronge Saskatchewan landed his single engine plane with one wheel at Dauphin airport after losing left landing gear while clipping a hydro pole. Flying instructor Wim Aberson said Bankert’s experience helped him safely reach a grassy area. Plane owned by Aberson Flying Service damaged about $6000. Denise Cowling, 17, daughter of Doug Cowling, was killed in a two vehicular crash west of Grandview. The collision involved a grain truck driven by Peter Mykolaishyn and a pickup by Kent Topham around 6:15 PM. Mykolaishyn’s wife injured. Neepawa discusses historic home of Margaret Laurence at 312 First Avenue with a $40,000 offer from Simpson Home Committee.

Roblin Hatchery Debate and Centennial Celebrations
The Simpson Home Committee formed last December to oppose a fish hatchery near the Highway No. 5 bridge by Roblin, arguing it would disrupt a campground and a natural spring. Hatchery developer Ken Markosky contends the project will complement the area. Separately, Binscarth marks its 100th birthday with July weekend festivities, drawing 1900 guestbook signatures from England, Scotland, Canada and across the United States and Canada, amid visitors from multiple regions.
