Coming into its 102nd year, the Village of Beiseker has reached an important crossroads in its development.

The Village of Beiseker put on a day's worth of family-friendly holiday fun on Dec. 3, including a Christmas market, friendly hockey game between Beiseker and Irricana fire crews, a parade down Main Street, and more.

"The Beiseker community have enjoyed fun events and the support the Beiseker Lions Club renders to the community," Richter said in an email statement. "The Beiseker Lions Club have been very important to our community and I ... want to say thanks to them."

According to Peckham, Beiseker's Christmas event does wonders to bring the village together during the holiday season.

The spirit of Christmas and giving is alive and well in Beiseker, as the rural community prepares to make a full-on effort to provide Christmas hampers to local families in need this holiday season.

“I’ve been inspired by plenty of YouTube videos of people building sweet shelters and I thought I would try my hand at inspiring others to get outside and have some fresh air," Sackett said.

The Beiseker Community Centre hosted a formal tea and gathering on Oct. 30 to celebrate the life of Queen Elizabeth II, who passed away in early September.

“We’re hoping to have a soft opening soon, and then next year we’re going to push forward with trees and shrubs and amenities in there and get the fence all finished off all the way around, supported and everything,” Spurgeon said.

“Dress to impress and join us for a short program to commemorate her majesty’s life,” read a poster for the event.

The charging stations were installed in September in the parking lot of Legacy Park just off First Avenue
