Weekly Roundup — Feb. 27

Here's what's making headlines in Leduc this week:

• New Sarepta is taking neighbourly behaviour to a whole new level by providing water to a nearby village that is facing a critical shortage.

• Georges Narbonne is bulking up in preparation for an epic bike ride to raise money for cancer research this summer.

• Thorsby teachers are counting down the days until construction starts on the village's new elementary school.

• Emergency service personnel in Leduc are envisioning a day when every public building in the city will have its own defibrillator in case someone suffers a sudden cardiac arrest.

• Parents, students learn how to recognize drug and alcohol addiction and talk about it constructively in this week's feature, by Laura Ring.

• A group of highly motivated students from Calmar is heading to Belize to work on development projects.

• In sports, the Riggers and Oil Kings both ended their seasons, but Leduc athletes shone at a major track and field competition in Idaho.

All this and more in print and on our website.
