We’re talking of course, about the Selkirk Arena – bet- ter known as The Barn – and Memorial Hall, both Selkirk institutions that have served the community exceptionally well for multiple decades. And while they are still in use at this moment, planning has begun in earnest to decommission both and determine what will live on in their place. Mayor Larry Johannson said he has fond memories of Memorial Hall and The Barn, dating back to when he was a kid growing up in Selkirk and then later in life when he coached hockey and took his own sons and daughter to skate. “Boy do I have memories of The Barn. It was where I went as a kid, it’s where I took my own kids and coached hockey. And Memorial Hall, I couldn’t even begin to try and count the number of times I’ve been to a social there or been to an event. They’ve been a part of my life for all of my life,” Johannson said. “And those memories will be with me forever, but it’s time to look to the future and what we can put there now for the next generation of Selkirk residents to grow up with. The possibilities are endless and I know we’re going to come out of this with something fantastic.” The City of Selkirk’s 2016 Recreation Master Strategy RECORD PHOTO SUBMITTED provides a long-term vision for recreation in the city and The City of Selkirk will soon decommission the Selkirk Arena and Memorial Hall and is recommended the development of a downtown, multi- looking for ideas on what type of recreation facility will live on their place. purpose facility/community hall likely to be located at the site of the arena and hall.

ANNOUNCEMENT ANNOUNCEMENT OBITUARY BIRTHDAY IN MEMORIAM Darren Rivard It is with heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of Darren Joseph Pierre Rivard at the age of 58. Survived by his mother Mary and recently predeceased by his father Pierre (December 11, 2019). Left to mourn are his children Ryan (Ari), Nicole (Dean), Michelle and Chad (Caylin); granddaughter Presley; sister Therese (Denis); nephew Justin (Samantha) and their family, nephew Nicholas; many aunts, uncles, and cousins. Darren had a quiet demeanour with a great sense of humour. He liked to joke around and tease, and always had a funny story to share. He was a kind man who never had a bad thing to say about anyone. Born in Gimli, Darren later moved to several bases as a child of the air force. He was a proud dad of four children, grandpa of a new baby girl and another on the way. He sent us numerous baby pictures often and was the fi rst to meet baby Presley. Retiring from Selkirk Rolling Mills after 38 years, he spent his free time attending hockey games and cheering on his favorite team, the Montreal Canadiens. He grew up playing hockey and had a love for sports. He also loved to spend time with his family, frequent the gym, camp, fi sh, and watch his children play soccer. Cremation has taken place and interment of his ashes will be held Tuesday, March 3, 2020 at 1:00 p.m. in the St. Clements Anglican Cemetery. The family would like to thank the staff at Urgent Care Seven Oaks Hospital for their care and compassion. Happy 30th Birthday!
