Mayor's Report

Mayor Pranger and all of Council attended the Canada Day celebration on July 1, in Pioneer Park. Councillor Schwichtenberg noted the event was well attended thanks to all the hard-working staff who put the event together. Mayor Pranger also shared a highlight from the event, commenting on the lizard petting zoo being a huge hit with the children, with many attendees happy to stand in line over and over again for a chance to handle the reptiles. Thanks to MP Mark Strahl and MLA Tony Luck for attending and helping to distribute cupcakes.
