Niverville Gold Rush Bingo launched on Tuesday, November 15 to a full house at the Golden Friendship Centre. The fun and games are a way of giving back to a centre that has contributed a lot to the community over the years.

It’s been at least 15 years since Ritchot residents have experienced water and sewer utility rate hikes. Beginning in January 2023, that’s about to change.

It’s been just better than two years since the Niverville Open Health medical clinic transitioned from being a privately owned to a publicly owned entity, and so far the situation is looking optimistic.

Service to Seniors (STS) Niverville has a new coordinator, and she’s hoping to provide a happy holiday season for the older folks in town.

It’s been six years since The Citizen last explored the idea of a French immersion school coming to Niverville, in an article entitled “The Demand for French Immersion.” All these years later, the jury’s still out on whether that will ever be a reality. But depending on who you ask, there may be some reason for hope.

In this series, The Citizen profiles locals who strive to make our little corner of Manitoba a better place. Each month, we feature a person, family, or business that helps brighten the world in some way. If you have someone in mind for a future month, please nominate them to jlavin@nivervillecitizen.com.
