Neepawa and area may be launching a new branding process for tourism. In recent years, and especially since the demise of the world renowned Neepawa Lily Festival, there has not been a coordinated branding effort in the area. In the past few years, the Town of Neepawa has spent almost zero dollars on tourism but has stepped up with a major commitment of $10,000 per year for three years to cover start-up costs for new tourism initiatives. Travel Manitoba’s contribution is rounded up to $25,000.

Drifts were piled several feet deep by the steady wind, closing side roads to auto traffic. A snow plow came through from Portage La Prairie Sunday and returned Monday morning, opening up that highway. A redeeming feature of the storm was that the temperature was not severe.
