Community

As 2022 draws to a close, still stands the Beatty House at the age of 97 looking lovely amidst the thousands of lights strung in celebration of the Christmas season.

The new Legion executive Garreth Jones, President; Christine Fernie, Vice-president; Al Lewis, Secretary; and Lori Lewis, Treasurer, were installed at our January dinner meeting.

CAO Marc Fortais looks forward to new projects

2022 was a very busy year at Rimbey FCSS.

As of January 2022, our members all had their calves selected, and they were being fed their grain rations. Lots were halter broke and starting to gain lots of weight by January. On Jan. 30, our Club hosted District Multi Species Judging. It was a fun day where members learned how to judge chickens, photography, horses, sheep and cow anatomy and tested our memory with a memorization station.

All are in no particular order. The Museum grounds make a super venue for large gatherings; the Lions Steak Fry was enjoyed by hundreds of people.

Year in Review

It was another stellar season for Central Alberta Raceways (CAR), and plans are already in the works for this year’s events.

Rimbey Lions Club has had a busy year starting with our Heart and Stroke Fundraising drive during February, which was again very successful.

It was with sadness that I heard the news of Treena Mielke’s passing, as I have known Treena for several years. I remember her back during her days with the Sylvan Lake News , and then we worked together for several years at the Red Deer Express . Treena went on to be editor of the Rimbey Review – and not only did she cover any community she worked in really well, she was also very much appreciated for her superb columns, which appeared in several local papers over the years.
