80 years ago. Friday, April 2, 1937: Fire about11:00 a.m. on Wednesday destroyed the large barn on the farm of R. Bray, south of town. It’s believed to have been caused by a lantern. All stock in the barn at the time was saved, with the exception of three small calves. A large quantity of feed was also destroyed. The loss is covered by insurance.

Preparations are underway for a community event that’ll bring awareness to a subject very few people openly talk about. Several volunteers recently met at the Neepawa Town Office to discuss the Miles for Mental Health Fun Run. The premise of the event, which is planned for Aug. 20 in Neepawa, is to give families and businesses the chance to participate in a walk/run in support of those struggling to maintain mental wellness.
