No body, just a blanket
On June 4 about 8:30 in the evening, the Roblin RCMP detachment received a call of a dead body wrapped in a blanket on the shoulder of the highway near Bield.
Members quickly attended and it was just a blanket on the side of the road. Nothing was located in the blanket.

Librarian turns the page
The Roblin and District Library will soon see a new face behind the checkout desk. Roblin Branch Librarian Myrtle Chase is retiring from her duties after serving 18 years in her role.
Chase has always been an incredibly outgoing and friendly community member, and she was perfect in her role as the branch librarian for the community.

Celebrating her Metis roots
Tomorrow is National Indigenous Peoples Day across Canada – a time to reflect on Indigenous people, customs, traditions, culture, language and ways of life.
The San Clara and Boggy Creek areas were once rich with Métis culture and as the population in these communities declines, there are still traces of that identity from the people who grew up and lived in the area.
