Some seniors from Maidstone enjoyed the annual Cutter Rally held in Lloydminster Saturday, February 25. Due to the lack of snow the 25 entrants pulled either wagons or sleighs. Six horseback riders accompanied them around the route. Lots of passengers enjoyed the afternoon event. 250 people enjoyed a hot roast beef supper at 5 p.m. Grand Prize for the day was a cutter valued at $3000, a trip valued at $2500, a custom-made set of dress harnesses made by Vern Higgins of Maidstone, or $2000 in cash. The winner chose the cash and was Leo Ostricker of Hillmond. All profit from this event goes to purchase items for the cancer ward of the Lloydminster Hospital.
