MUSEUM WELCOMES UNIQUE DONATION — A rather large aluminum silver ball rolled up from innumerable cigarette package foils over the span of more than 30 years was recently donated to the Sundre and District Historical Society, the organization that runs the Sundre Pioneer Village Museum. The late Al Regnier had originally started the ball all those years ago and before long many others were contributing to the effort. On May 24, members from the society came to the Foothills Lodge to transfer the heavy ball.
