A Moment with the Mayor

Fall is officially here, and we’ve begun to witness the change of seasons. The air is cooler, and the geese can be seen and heard regularly.

As we move into fall, activities continue in and around our community. With fall comes fall suppers throughout our area. For many, this is an excellent opportunity to enjoy a meal of turkey, ham or roast beef and all the trimmings, usually accompanied by fresh homemade desserts, pie, crisp or cake. Keep an eye out for the schedule in the paper, on Facebook or on your favourite coffee shop bulletin board. My family always does its best to attend and support these great gatherings. It’s always nice to take over the cooking for a night and know that you will have a fantastic meal.

With the recent passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the Lloydminster St. John’s Anglican Church is holding a memorial service, with tea to follow, on October 1. Details are being finalized. Reach out to the church or stay tuned on social media for the exact times.

Don’t miss the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30 with an Orange Shirt Day Walk at 1 p.m. at the Lloydminster Native Friendship Centre. Please come out and join us.

Our great neighbour, the Town of Marshall, is planning an all-day celebration after receiving the Richardson Pioneer Rider Nation Community Celebration Grant, valued at $25,000. Events include a pancake breakfast that kicks off at 9 a.m. and a parade at 1:30 p.m. There will be outhouse races, a car show, pictures with the Grey Cup with a food bank donation, a family dance, fireworks and more. The grant funding will help with the costs of renovations at the Marshall skating rink.

October 1 is a busy day as the Lloydminster Rescue Squad will be hosting its Sirens and Sapphires Gala at the Lloyd Ex. The gala returns after a two-year hiatus with big plans starting with a great meal catered by the Lloydminster Ex catering staff. The evening will feature live and silent auction items and entertainment.

October 6 will see the in-person tenth annual Economic Partnership Summit at the Lloyd Ex. This year features guest speaker, the Hon. Jody Wilson-Raybould, former MP, former minister of justice and attorney general of Canada. Additional speakers will discuss Indigenous tourism, Indigenous entrepreneurship and human resource strategies. The day starts at 8:15 a.m. You can register online at www.economicpartnership.ca

I look forward to seeing you out and about!

Mayor Gerald S. Aalbers
City of Lloydminster
