Lions Club seeks members as it faces disbandment
Rossburn Review reports a local Lions Club with 14 members, only six active, may dissolve. A motion to disband was made at the last meeting with final approval due in June. The club urges residents to join, outlining a small initiation fee, two monthly meetings, and help at fundraisers. Local towns also discuss Langenburg base tax reform set at 550 dollars for improved properties and 100 for vacant properties with the mill rate applying to assessed value.

Manitoba Telecom Services files with the CRTC for further monthly residential rate increases from 23 cents in Brandon to 1.13 for SWIFT service. The request follows prior hikes and aims to offset a recent CRTC denial. MTS cites costs and argues $28 is reasonable for local service, with directory charges also set to rise from 75 cents to one dollar per call.
