ENDIANG/BYEMOOR NEWS -- The district has been enjoying more mild winter weather, making this winter pretty easy to take. Don Wilkie spotted a gopher out and about on Sunday, which seems very early. Perhaps the Groundhog's prediction of an early spring will be correct.

Boar's Cup hockey action made Byemoor a busy place on the weekend. The 3 th annual men's hockey tournament had four fun, celebrity-themed, hog-influenced teams participating.

In the A event, first place went to the Kevin Bacon's team over the Hamela Hamderson's.

B event winners were the Hammy L. Jackson's over the Snoop Hoggy Hog.

Sounds like a fun time was had by all.

Congratulations to Tom and Bonnie McCrindle on the arrival of their newest grandchild. Erik Ellis was born on Feb. 9 to proud parents Jennifer McCrindle and Dave Normor of Edmonton. Erik weighed seven pounds 10 ounces and is a little brother for Lucas.

Endmoor Drop-in Centre's crib night on Tuesday saw the guys post the top scores with Lawrence Wilkie, first and Doug Harrold, second.
