Yes, Dennis “Hymie” Schnurr had a huge crop of apples this year at his Mildmay residence, BUT, he also grew some huge, one might even say massive specimens!  He explained that he has two small grafts on the tree about 3-4’ long, and he got 2-3 dozen of these huge “Alexanders” apples from those 2 grafts!  In total, Schnurr has 3 apple trees with about 26 different varieties.  The photo below shows a regular sized apple on the right and one of the huge apples that filled Hymie’s tree.

Mildmay Shell recently won a major Customer Service Award from Shell Canada. The store was one of only a handful from across the country to be recognized for Exceptional Frontline Customer Service. Mildmay was one of the smallest communities to win the award. This is significant as the award was based on customer responses and the level needed to qualify was very high. Congratulations to (l-r) Barb McCausland, Sarah Stuy,  Carrie Newton, Helen Arnold, Pat Kell and Site Supervisor Emy Lamont. Each of them received a gift card which they are holding.
