Edna finally broke the ice, flipping open her For Posterity notebook. “I’ve been tallying things up,” she said. “Do you know how many volunteer hours this town puts in every year?” Earl leaned back in his chair, already grinning. “Enough to qualify us for the Olympics?” “Enough,” Edna

Kids, Community, and the Long Game
A new youth space and a timely grant had Coffee Row wondering what kind of future Gull Lake is building—and who’s keeping the receipts.

On a cool Friday evening in September 1968—a Friday the 13th, no less—a routine patrol on Highway 1 turned into one of the most dramatic moments in the history of the Gull Lake RCMP detachment. Two 18‑year‑olds from Waterloo, Ontario, Dennis Bonn and Brian McLennan, were hitchhiking west toward British Columbia. Near Whitewood, a new Mercury Cougar pulled over.
