Wow! Wasn’t that a show!
From the parade to the action provided by the best professional cowboys and cowgirls, the 2026 High Prairie Elks Pro Rodeo was another smashing success!
The Page gives a big tip of the cowboy hat to the Elks and Royal Purple Elks and all volunteers for a job well done!
The Page thought the parade was awesome and gives special acknowledgement to Kapawe’no First Nation and the decorated headdress on the truck. By facing it head-on, the headdress was truly a marvel, hats off to the people who designed and built it. Well done!
A notable absence at the rodeo was rodeo clown Ricky Ticky Wanchuk.
Ricky always spoke very highly of the High Prairie rodeo and it was one of his favourite stopping places on the circuit.
Oh, well! If anyone deserves retirement, it’s Ricky! All the best!
The Page does not understand why women love cats.
Cats are independent, they don’t listen, they do not come in when you call, they like to stay out at night, and when they are home they like to be left alone and sleep.
In other words, every quality women hate in a man they love in a cat!
It was 63 years ago today that triplets were born at the High Prairie Providence Hospital.
You know you’re getting old when you won a golf tournament 42 years ago.
David Temple, now of town council fame, won the High Prairie Open in 1984.
Speaking of golf, The Page gave up golf when his best club broke.
It was the one with the eraser on the end of it!
The Page hears piggy banks are under siege this week!
No, The Page is not trying to scrounge up change to buy coffee! Rather, children are gathering their change to attend the High Prairie Municipal Library’s Penny Carnival Aug. 6 from 2- 4 p.m. For pennies per game, children have a blast. It is truly an event children look forward to each year.
Good luck, everyone, and hope the weather is bright and sunny!
What do plumbers and teachers have in common?
Both deal with crap all day!
