Summer holiday season boosts resorts and schools in fall preview
The region reports strong resort and beach activity through a rainy July with August’s warm clear weather offsetting a bit. Harold Olson at The Royal Bank offers to take reservations for a Northern Manitoba tour planned by the Chamber of Commerce for the last weekend in September. Air fare is listed at $90. Joe Laxdal is named community affairs specialist for the Extension Service, with a replacement to be named. A field of barley yields 75 bushels per acre, and a seven and a half inch mushroom is found in a garden. Local golf teams compete in Sugar Bowl play-offs with notable scores, while cricket-like news of bat sightings and various community notes fill the page.
