Russell to have new fire hall
Russell Town Council wins funding approval for a new fire hall costing 225000 under the Federal Provincial infrastructure program. The civic centre plan was trimmed and rejected, with the fire hall approved as the second choice. Drawings are complete and construction can start once the one third provincial federal share arrives. The site south of the community centre on Shell River Lawrence was chosen for quicker access.

Russell and area veterans and residents gathered June 6 for a Memorial Street monument service. Wreaths were laid at the memorial as RCMP red serge members joined aging veterans and Legion Auxiliary members in a quiet tribute to those who died or were wounded on Normandy beaches fifty years ago. Pastor Bill Russell led the memorial service at the Russell and District Community Centre followed by an evening dinner.
