Star of the Week - Congratulations and Thank you!!

First Star is, of course, our veterans past and present who served in our Canadian Military. Honestly, they should be named First Star 52 weeks a year!!

The Second Star…our Creative Visions who are in the process of investing $50,000 in new LED Stage Lighting at the Conexus Convention Centre.

The Third Star…everyone who votes in this week’s Municipal Elections. It is a privilege…made possible by this week’s First Star!!
