Here is why Eric says Eugene is a Grill Of A Guy:

Hillcrest Early Learning Centre is inviting families from across the community to enjoy a day of games, treats, and togetherness at its upcoming Family Fun Day on June 21.

A new exhibit is coming to the St. Pierre Museum, shining a spotlight on the Rat River Settlement. 

Museum President Rolly Gagne says the idea behind the exhibit is rooted in identity and community history.

As the rugby scene continues to grow in the southeast, the Eastman Warriors are looking to form a women’s team.

A ministry from southern Manitoba is combining motocross and faith as it hosts its first event at the end of June. 

"It's ride day camps for kids or adults, whoever wants to come out and just hang out and ride dirt bikes," says Kevin Nolt, who started Activate Motocross Ministry. "We'll eat some BBQ food, and there'll be some discussions and videos on faith-based subjects."

The inspiration behind the name 'Activate' comes from Mark 16:15, in which it says, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation."

Most fundraisers look fairly similar nowadays. No matter how you raise the money, if it’s for a good cause, people can always rally behind it. Although from 50/50’s to raffles and giveaways, it can seem kind of repetitive or for lack of a better word, ‘boring’.  

The Athletic Club noticed this as well and launched a new type of fundraiser called Move to Make a Difference. Combining the feel-good feeling of a fundraiser with the feel-good feeling of a great workout; they’re hoping they can raise funds for a good cause and raise your heartrate while they're at it.  

In a stunning and heartwarming display of teamwork, determination, and community spirit, the Border Valley/Blumenfeld Falcons boys basketball team have captured the Tier 2 Zone 4 championship banner — proving that size doesn’t matter when heart leads the way.
