Paddling in the Rain
|
Ryan Ens didn’t have to travel out of town to get a little paddleboarding in during a steady rainfall. Asked how the water was, he told The News it was “warmer than Capt. Ayre (Lake) the day before.” Lindsay Berry took this photo across from the Provost fire hall on Thursday evening, June 27. A rain gauge a few miles east of town that same day showed that 2.28 inches fell starting just before 5 a.m. Photo submitted. |

Time to Dig in
|
| People line up for a barbecue lunch organized by the Bodo Archaeological Society to raise cash for its operations at the D R Technologies parking lot in Provost on Friday, June 28. The society raised just over $1,100 and sold 180 patties. D R Technologies gave the meat and board members Myron and Irene Ganser pitched in with supplies. “We also had a great turnout from the community,” programs manager and archaeolgoist Courtney Lakevold told The News. The fundraisers go towards their public and educational programming to help keep rates accessible. It helps cover operating costs, staff wages and program supplies, says Lakevold. The Bodo Archaeolgoical Dig Site is moving on to their kids day camps and adult dig where they will be “focusing on uncovering a unique bison skull feature found underneath the bone bed at our bison killsite.” A documentary filmmaker is to come out this month to film the dig. His goal with the film will be to “achieve in the viewer a greater understanding and appreciation of the work done by archeologists, and more broadly, to generate an interest in history.” Bodo was chosen for the filming through contacts at the Archaeological Society of Alberta. ©Provost News Photo. |
