MOSSBANK — Mossbank may be on the smaller side of average small towns, but make no mistake, it is a happening place, Just looking at the early spring events tells the story.
In April and May, there have already been a volunteer appreciation night, a fire prevention spring cleanup, the Cornerstone Ladies’ Fellowship Soup and Sandwich lunch and the Justinsane Barbie Classic Race. At Easter and the faith communities in Mossbank get together to plan the Walk of the Cross.
A quick look at the bulletin board in the post office reveals many more events on the horizon.
To date one baby shower has already taken place and observing the number of expectant moms suggests several more on the way. Bridal showers have been booked and a memorial service at the Mossbank school library is on the calendar. Already, the group that looks after the abundance of flower beds that have been put into Main Street green spaces are busy. With the end of the school year nearing, there will be at least one trip to the local museum coming.
Looking ahead on the posters pinned up and June is already busy. Besides the list of activities already seen are grad and several more school trips to celebrate the coming end of the year. The senior students who haven’t already written their essays for scholarships will be frantically knocking on Carolyn Anderson’s office door. The museum is getting work done on the Ambroz house floor in preparation for the 2025 tourist season.
Students who haven’t filled their volunteer hours for credit will be looking for opportunities. Other Students, like the Grade 7-8 class, who held a young entrepreneurs show, will be discovering their skills and talents. There is always something going on and something to do. Every trip to get the mail fills you in on the coming events, and you have but to choose those that hold your interest.
