A Lac du Bonnet reader denounces village council for dumping sewage into an inadequate ditch near the lagoon before the allowed date. The letter accuses officials of indifference, describes the foul odor and environmental impact, and urges accountability while recalling past church ties and community tensions.
A Winnipeg area junior hockey season ends with a Friday banquet at 6:00 p.m. in the Lac du Bonnet Legion Hall to honor 130 players. Organizers urge at least one parent per player to attend for awards and a guest speaker, warning that ticket sales have been very low.
A recovered reminiscence by Jos. Pat Lodge recounts a Monday in Crescent Bay when a man, after a few beers, mistakenly drives Dollard Bruneau’s car thinking it is his own. He fears theft, arrest, and judgment, but returns the vehicle to a calm owner who buys him a beer, leaving him relieved and unscathed. The tale blends memory, humor, and a sober aftermath of a comic misadventure.
