Warren Elementary School (WES) students had the opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors last Friday before heading into spring break. Due to the pandemic Grade 8 students are unable to travel to WCI to take shops and home economics classes, so they were offered an outdoor educa- tion program as a replacement. Grade 8 students with the help of some of their teachers organized “WES Fest,” a day of outdoor activities for Grade 6-8 students. Students socially distanced and moved in cohorts taking part in shelter making, fi re building and safety, rock painting, bocce ball, lacrosse and making smores over the barbecue.

Planning a Project this Construction Season? Spring and summer are busy seasons for construction, and it’s also a time when many are preparing to enjoy the outdoors. With this in mind, the South Interlake Planning District (SIPD) would like to issue a reminder that Development and Building Permits are required for most types of construction, renovations, and structures (pre-built, site-built, temporary or permanent). These include but are not limited to: Swimming Pools, Hot Tubs, Decks, Sunrooms, Gazebos, Pergolas, Sheds, Fabric Shelters, Interior/Exterior Renovations or Repairs, Solar Panels, Window and Door Installations (structural only), Basement Developments, etc. Permits help ensure that buildings and structures meet the Manitoba Building Code, which in turn increases the level of safety for TRIBUNE PHOTO BY PAT WILLIAMSON-CROCKATT everyone.
