Power cut could not spoil the roast beef supper

Seventy hungry people enjoyed the roast beef supper at the Gadsby Bank Building on Saturday night. There was a few minutes of panic and scurry when the power went off, but the power company responded quickly and supper was only 10 minutes late.

A beautiful late summer wedding took place in the back yard of their home when Cody and Tanya Cassidy exchanged their vows. Three hundred guests joined Cody and Tanya at the Westwoods Agriplex where the Westwoods ladies served a hot roast beef supper for the reception, followed by open house and dance. Charlie and Aleta Cassidy were thrilled to have all their family in attendance and many pictures were taken to commemorate the day. Best wishes to Cody and Tanya.
