In This Episode of the River Valley Podcast...
We’re back with another jam-packed episode covering everything Lumsden! Tune in as we dive into local news, upcoming events, and community happenings you won’t want to miss. We explore the history behind land acknowledgements and Lumsden’s roots on Treaty Four territory. Get timely summertime tips on river safety, fire pit use, and why it pays to support local and smile at strangers.
Bonnie sits down with the new president of the Lumsden Historical Society to talk about the town’s iconic garage sale fundraiser—where it started, how it’s grown, and how you can get involved. Plus, in our “Bylaws and Order” segment, we tackle the rules around signs on public property (spoiler: duct taping your garage sale sign to a stop sign is a no-go).
We wrap up with a flurry of fun: restaurant patio parties, museum happenings, sports camps, workshops, local club initiatives, and a glimpse into the town’s very first general store and post office.
