RM of Winslow No. 319

A beautiful place to live and grow

25 Year Time Capsule – April 2020 to April 2025

A map from March 1998, a photo of the staff and council, which was taken in December 1999 and a program for a Provincial hockey game of the Dodsland Senior Stars against the Drake Canucks were in the time capsule.

The front section of The Star Phoenix, indicating the death of curler Sandra Schmirler, was included in the time capsule as the young curler was from the Town of Biggar, which is not far from the municipality.

The Reeve’s speech from the April 2000 Rate Payer’s Meeting, pins from the 90th anniversary of the RM of Winslow #319 in 2000, a poster and pin protesting the Government of Saskatchewan’s plan for forced amalgamations of Rural Municipalities were included in the time capsule.

A Briar ticket stub and the sports section of The Star Phoenix, indicating that Greg McAulay, of British Columbia, was the Briar winner, was put in the time capsule to illustrate events that were happening in 2000.

The Reeve’s speech outlined projects the municipality was working on, capital purchases from the prior year, and that the SARM membership voted on establishing APAS to help lobby farm issues at the Federal level of Government. The speech also shared information about forced amalgamation plans and meetings the council had attended to protest.
