I hear it was a big weekend at the Poltimore Tractor Pull for the Loose Change pulling team. Congratulations to Pat Carty and Danny Foran, as Pat won . . .

his class on Sunday. It was Loose Change’s first win and they are very excited. Way to go guys.

Deepest sympathy is extended to the Bronson and Martineau families as Jean Bronson passed away on Aug. 22. Our thoughts and prayers are with her loved ones at this sad time.

This week, we have birthday wishes going out to Hannah Lang on Aug. 28, to Kinley Conners and Denis Renaud on Aug. 29 and to Dianne Leach and Leslie Stanton who are both celebrating on Aug. 31. Happy birthday to Stacy Johnston on Sept. 1, to Therese Provost-Demell on Sept. 2, and to Wendy Provost on Sept. 3. Happy days to everyone celebrating.

Congratulations to my nephew Caden Provost, his dad/coach Chris and their baseball team the Aylmer Bulldogs. They won their league championship and are heading to the provincials this coming weekend for the second year in a row. Good luck in Trois-Rivières.

Many of our local students will be heading back to the classroom this week and next. We wish them all the best as they start their new school year.

Labour Day weekend not only marks the return to school for students but it also means it’s time for the Shawville Fair. As always, I am so looking forward to the fair: the exhibits, the music, the food, the animals and especially the visits with friends and family. Wishing everyone a safe and happy fair weekend. See you there.
