Pennies for Jasper museum roof
For the month of February, École Desrochers students in Jasper collected pennies to donate to the Jasper-Yellowhead Historical Society’s Repair the Roof Fund.
Last December Connie Sawka’s class at Jasper Elementary School donated $18.97 which started the challenge. Several other grades responded to the challenge and dropped off their penny collection at the museum.
The museum will continue to collect pennies until the sources dry up. Bring them rolled or loose to the museum. Community support for this fundraiser is greatly appreciated by the museum.
Jasper Bantam Bearcats to play in B pool final
On March 16, the Jasper Bantam Bearcats will face Plamondon for the Sturgeon Pembina Hockey League B Pool Final in Whitecourt. The Bearcats defeated Plamondon earlier in the season to earn the privilege of facing the first place Edson team. However, following a fierce battle with Edson on March 2 and March 5, the Bearcats were defeated and dropped to the B pool. League glory still awaits the Bearcats who have proven they are serious playoff contenders. Go Bearcats Go!
