ENDIANG ENTERPRISE
The Family Day Fun Curling Bonspiel at the Byemoor curling rink drew 10 teams for the fun-filled day with many young curlers participating. The event involved not only curling but participation in some “Minute to Win It” style games for points as well. The Rod Moench family of Hanna were the winning team and the day concluded with a potluck supper.
Some local folks participated in the Bull Congress at Oyen recently. Maureen Wasdal showed a pen of commercial heifers, Maureen and Eric Smith of Mappin Simmentals showed bulls and Grace Sorensen competed in the showmanship class. Congratulations to Grace on winning senior showmanship.
