By Darryl Holyk
Good crowds…
The view from The Tribune float in last Friday night’s
Santa Parade showed a good crowd of parade spectators
of all ages lining the streets. The downtown traffic and
activity leading up to and following the parade was also
great to see. Hopefully, all businesses who participated
in the Moonlight Madness benefitted by this special eve-
ning allowing residents an added opportunity to shop
local leading up to the holidays. Good participation and
spectator numbers are important to keep such volunteer-
organized initiatives returning year after year.
together to fill up hampers for those in need. The
Minnedosa Christmas Cheer is located at 11-6th Av-
enue N.E. (Dari Isle Drive In) and is open Monday to
Friday afternoons. The public is welcome to stop in
and fill out/drop off an application or drop off gen-
erous donations. Application deadline is this coming
Monday, December 17th.
Hampers can be recommended for individuals
by the public or through organizations such as; Public
Health, Mental Health, Family Services, Home Care,
Churches, etc.
Hampers will include the staples of a traditional
Christmas dinner such as; turkey/chicken or ham,
potatoes, carrots, margarine, milk, bread/buns and
Christmas oranges. Recipients can also choose to
have Christmas cake added to their hamper. Any
canned goods are divided up throughout the ham-

Money which can be spent at local businesses.
Hampers will be ready for pick-up on Wednesday
December 19th between 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. Delivery of
hampers will be the following day between 10:00 to
11:30 a.m.
The deadline to donate to the Christmas Cheer
Board is Monday, December 17th at the Dari Isle
before 4 p.m. Anyone who is unsure what to donate,
non-perishable canned goods are being requested.
Minnedosa Heritage Co-op Food Market also has
a bin just inside the door where donations can be
dropped off for the Cheer Board.
The Christmas Cheer Board is grateful to every-
one in the community who supports this great cause.
Without volunteers and the generous donations, the
Cheer Board would be unable to brighten Christmas
for those in need this holiday season.

Walk safe…
A reminder to our residents who enjoy walking,
running or jogging throughout the community. Please
ensure you are noticeable by wearing bright clothing or
carrying a light or flasher with you, especially in the early
mornings or late evenings when it is still dark. There have
been numerous mornings that I have spotted, at the last
moment, a dark-coloured figure out for a walk along the
side of the Beach Road recently. Don’t risk your safety.
Backlog blues…
Those shoppers waiting for their Christmas gifts to
arrive through Canada Post are beginning to sweat as the
country’s national mail delivery service is slowly sorting
through the backlog of parcels. The backlog comes as a
result of the busy holiday season and the recent rotating
strikes. These shoppers are now feeling the frustration
newspaper subscribers deal with on an all-to-regular
basis across this country with slow delivery service. This
slow down in parcel delivery is just another good reason
to shop local so you don’t have to worry about your gift
purchases not arriving in time.
Festive properties...
For those who enjoy viewing Christmas lights, you
need to look no further than right here at home. A num-
ber of Minnedosa residents have adorned their proper-
ties with festive Christmas ligths and decorations add-

Reena Shares Holiday Decorating Tips

T rim the tree with
framed photos of
memories. Inexpensive
frames may be purchased
or handmade.
Fill clear plastic ball
ornaments with candy
such as, M&M’s, gummy
worms, or popcorn for
guests and family to take
home as a gift when leav-
ing your home.
Paint burnt out Christ-
mas single lights with glit-
ter paint and hang them on
the tree.
Gather pinecones, tie
a bow on the top and hang
them on the tree. Spraying
with glitter paint, adds an
extra special touch.
Create one mono-
grammed ornament for
each visitor or family mem-
ber with a special message
to that person written on
the back.
Cut out gingerbread
cookies, poke a hole at the
top of the heads, so that
you can later add a ribbon.
Bake, decorate and hang
them on the tree.

Santa Comes to Town By DARRYL HOLYK

A s part of his world-

wind tour leading up
to his busiest night of the
year, Santa Claus spent last
weekend in Minnedosa.
He arrived Friday, just in
time to ride in the Santa
Parade. Then, he and Mrs.
Claus took in the many ac-
tivities the following day.
Mr. Claus visited with the
children at the Community
Confernece Centre while
his jolly wife read to chil-
dren at the Library.
Don’t worry, he will be
back the night of the 24th
with a sack full of gifts for
all the good little boys and
