Book a classified, check the weather, look up a phone number, check out the new movies etc.
Okay, now the best part. You can enter our contest for a backyard barbecue for you and 24 friends. We will supply the barbecue, fridge and beer, food, live band and so much more. You get to keep everything except the band and who knows, they may be negotiable?

Without water there can be no growth and without growth our business community will fail long-term. Tonight the Town of Okotoks is hosting an information session at the Community Centre on Wednesday, April 13.
Robert Sandford, author of “Restoring the flow”, will speak tonight at 7 p.m.
Others will follow in the weeks to come. On April 18 and 25 there will be speakers in council chambers at 7 p.m. It is important we understand where our decisions on water will take us as the mayor has stated several times the final decision will be made in a plebiscite. We want all aspects to be studied including the most obvious one which is a regional solution like we have in the Capital Region around Edmonton. For several decades they have been on the forefront with a cost effective and futuristic system. We look forward to hearing that approach debated as well. This is a crucial period for the future of Okotoks and area.
