We care about our community and are currently working on updating emergency planning procedures, including a community siren for emergencies. With help from the community, we will be prepared. This does not have to be a time consuming task, you can be as heavily involved as you wish, or just attend quarterly meetings for emergency preparedness updates. Our family time is important and with your help, we can be prepared as a community. Any involvement you would like to give is appreciated.

Last year, Langham Elementary School seen their inside and outside walls begin to buckle. With the necessary repairs that ensured our children’s safety, the green space in front of the school was torn up. The 1st Langham Girl Guides offered to help replace the grass in front of the school. With this came an opportunity to apply for a green space grant designed for Girl Guides of Canada. We applied for the grant and each of our units; st Snow Angels February has been our snow month! We have had more than our share of the white stuff in the last couple of weeks. I sent a call out through our Facebook page for people to send out a thank you to the wonderful people that are our Snow Angels. We had several thank you’s to our town crew for the amazing job they did clearing our streets. I live in Saskatoon and would enjoy it if my street and back alley were cleared! Langham & District Heritage Village and Museum Sparks, Brownies and Guides were awarded $500 to renew the green space at Langham Elementary School. Between the grant and our own district money we now have $2000 to put towards putting down NEW ROOTS at our school. We have challenged our most experienced girls, the Guides, to do the planning and implementing of such a large scale project. We look forward to taking our units to shop at Dieter Martin Greenhouse and learn from them how to care and create a sustainable green space that our families can enjoy for years to come.

Corinne Waldner Recreation Director Plus 60 Myth Buster: Plus 60 Name Change In an attempt to bust the myth that somehow there is an age requirement for participating in activities with the Plus 60 Group we are considering changing our name. The executive committee for The Plus 60 Group believe that by changing our name the ‘junior’ seniors, and or retirees, of our community may feel more welcome. Therefore we are asking for name change suggestions; ‘Good Times’, ‘Dynasty Club’, ‘Heritage Coffee Cup Gallery’, and my personal favorite, ‘Friends of Dick and Jane’ have already been submitted. We ask that you please vote for one of these or suggest one of your own that would make you feel welcome, please contact any club member at coffee hour at the Museum, or Corinne Waldner at the town office (306) 283-4806 or myself, Sela (306) 283-4381. For those of you who are not familiar with us, The Plus 60 Group, we host coffee hour every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday 9:30-10:30am, Potluck suppers on the last Wednesday of every month. We partner with the Museum to offer events such as the Valentine and Harvest Bake Sales, Depression Days Dinner, Pierogi Making and cooking classes, as well as Day Excursions, by motor coach or car-pooling, several times a year. Watch for posters regarding our next excursion, The Heritage Train Ride and Dinner at Ogema, Sk. and remember if you are old enough to know who Dick and Jane are you are old enough to join our group.
