In the middle of Neepawa, down at the Flats there is a new walking path. For Canada’s 150th birthday, there is a new wall with the words “Canada 150 1867 – 2017” written on it. The wall is part of the walking path and it’s for use by multiple generations. If you’re going for a walk and pushing a stroller, learning to ride a bike, or even when you’re older and out for a scooter ride, it will be handy for you.

Langford Miller and Manson Martin brought provincial distinction to the town when they annexed the Manitoba grass court men’s doubles tennis title at the tournament in Minnedosa last week. Their sparkling three set victory was scored at the expense of Sidney Hancock and G.T. Turley, of Minnedosa, the standings being 7-5, 6-1, 6-3. They brought home with them the coveted Turley cups and prizes. These cups have been in circulation since 1922 and have never been outside Winnipeg, Brandon or Minnedosa before this year. Congratulations to the local boys who scored for Neepawa.
