When we first walked into the Roxy, we imagined John Kostenchuk taking tickets at the front door and we were ushered to our seats by Myrna Hawkins, Miriam Shulman, May Kostenchuk or one of the Montgomery sisters, Maureen or Gail, with their trusty club-like flashlights. On the way by the concession on the left side, the strong aroma of buttered popcorn made us stop there years ago, but now it was a waiting room. We were thinking that Al Pasosky鈥檚 mother took tickets at the front and Cheryl Thurston as well after Mrs. Pasosky鈥檚 retirement. Our pal from Morden, Kaz Holod, joined us for the tour which was led by Cecil Pittman and chaperoned by Tubby Cathcart. We four transplanted Winnipeggers, Ron Kleven, Barry Deveson, Cam Smith and I were deep into our memory bank having just used it for the bowling alley tour only moments earlier.

Dig-All Construction has begun mobilizing its equipment on the former CN property. The Winkler-based company was selected earlier this month to install a new trunk sewer in the area, as part of a massive infrastructure project planned by the Town of Neepawa. Dig-All had the lowest bid, at $605,400 plus tax. Work on the first phase of the project will likely start in early May.
