Gerri Solinger also of Shell Lake for

month of December.

The calendar project for 2016 is more

or less wrapped up. There are still

some calendars left for purchase and

you may do that by asking Joy at the

grocery store. Thank you everyone

who particpated. It is a whorthwhile

fund raiser for the Shell Lake Branch

of the Legion.

VILLAGE OF SHELLLAKE

Christmas Day is over, but I hope

we all can carry the emotions of

Christmas into the New Year and

beyond. Let us continue to spread

joy and peace as we journey.

The very cold snap before

Christmas meant that our lights didn't

get put up as soon as some would

have like and it also caused a

malfunction at our Village tree. Maybe

next year we'll do better.

I'm not angry at the weatherman

anymore. The streets aren't icy and

there hasn't been too much snow.

You can look forward to some

very interesting hiking trails in the

spring and if we get more snow even

some cross country skiing this win-

ter. The curling ice is ready and it

seems there will be a large number of

curlers out to enjoy it.

I want to commend the volunteer fire

department for their work in putting

out the recent house fire at Tung's.

Unfortunately it didn't turn out so

well for Harold . May he rest in peace.

Now may you all enjoy a wonderful

New Year's Day and a healthy,

productive year ahead.

LITTLE WONDERS CLUBHOUSE

Little Wonders Clubhouse will once

again be accepting bottles for our

bottle drive. This is a great way for

everyone to clean up after the

holidays. We are hoping to do a

door-to-door drive sometime in the

spring, but if you wish to get rid of

your cans and bottles before then,

we will certainly be happy to take

them. You can drop them off at Shell

Lake General Store, or arrange for

pick-up. For more information, con-

tact Joy at 306-427-2044.

SHELL LAKE CURLING CLUB

Curling rink is open. Anyone

wishing to curl, contact JoyAnne

Ardagh. Open Bonspiel January 27

and the Ladies Bonspiel February 24.

OUTDOOR RINK

Thank you goes out to Hartley,

Roxanne Diesen , Brad Fry and

others who helped flood the rink.

Many enjoyed using the rink over the

holidays.

Everyone is welcome to use the rink

but it would be greatly apprecitated

if you would scrape it after its used.

JEN’S TALKA Very Happy New Year to all!

If there is one thing we can all agree

on, it is starting off a new year with

good intentions of improved health and

wellness. Since I have increased the

tea consumption in my daily routine,

the difference in how I feel is amazing.

A simple cup of tea is not only sooth-

ing for the soul but also provides us

with plenty of health benefits. Our

herbal and wellness teas are extremely

popular this time of year as colds and

flus make their way into our homes.

We have 20 different blends with all

natural herbs, fruits and spices crafted

to complement our journey to wellness.

These are a few of our popular blends

that I personally love! Fine & Dandy -

dandelion and mint get cozy in your

cup. Nettle Greek Mountain - nettle

leaves, lemongrass, and orange. A fave

when feeling under the weather!

Tummy Troubles - orange, mint and

ginger make for a feel good tea. Great

for kids. Feminini Tea - blended for

emotional stability and stress relief.

Too many ingredients to mention, but

one of my new favourites!! 50g bags

are between $8 - 11.

We have a wellness collection as

well as a detox collection which in-

cludes 6 popular herbal teas in a col-

lection box. A great way to sample!

I am happy to host in home tea par-

ties, my house or yours, they are tons
