At Deka Lake & District Volunteer Fire Department’s (DLDVFD) Feb. 8 Ice-Fishing Derby, their Ladies Auxiliary (LA) president Lorna Wiebe drew for the Kay Neil Memorial quilt, which was won by the LA's Penny Szach.
Kay, who passed away in 2004, was the LA's chief quilter. A memorial quilt has been made in her honour since then, and a draw, solely between members of the fire department and the LA determines the winner.
Auxiliary business
The LA's Feb. 12 meeting welcomed guest Erica Lechner.
Members approved expenditure to renovate the DLDVFD Fire Hall's upstairs washrooms; and also for a gift certificate for Harv Allen who spends an inordinate amount of time and money helping not only the LA, but all Deka residents.
