Welcome to the April issue of the paper! We have some important community news to share this month, particularly the front page story concerning Arden’s Varimart. We don’t often cover news taking place in another neighbourhood. However, the close proximity to our area and the city-wide implications should the SDAB decision stand make this very relevant.

Fortunately, we also have some fun community news, particularly about Family Day and other events. We also have our columnists who represent different walks of life in the area.

If you have an idea for an article, know about an event we should cover, or want to tell us about someone who is doing something worthy of positive attention, please contact me any time at editor@bmcnews.org.

As well, if you would like to know about our current volunteer opportunities, drop me a line. We are always looking for contributors, block carriers, Editorial Committee members, and casino volunteers.
