Performances are scheduled for Saturday and Sunday at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. in the school theatre.

The theatre production will feature several rotating casts.

Spring recital planned at Strathmore Alliance Church

Music teacher Ally Brigley will host her studio’s 2026 spring recital Sunday at Strathmore Alliance Church.

The performances will feature piano and vocal students from the studio.

“We're doing two concerts on the same day because our studio has grown so much, we had to split it into two concerts,” Brigley said.

The first recital begins at 4 p.m., followed by a second performance at 6 p.m. Admission is by donation.

The Town of Strathmore and the Agra Risk Wheatland Kings are also bringing back the Paint the Rink event for a second year.

The event will begin Sunday with a final public skate at the Strathmore Family Centre from 11 a.m. to noon before the ice is removed for the season.

Residents will then be invited onto the ice to paint and take part in activities until 1 p.m.

The Happy Gang is also hosting a bake sale and garage sale on Friday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturday at 9 a.m. to noon. at the Lambert Centre.
