I just wanted to add a note here about the Scott Woods show that came through Beausejour recently. Excellence doesn’t begin to describe the experience enjoyed by everyone who attended the show. We hope Scott comes back again!

If you like fiddle and old tyme country music, you’ll want to be at the Brokenhead Community Hall to see Scott Woods and his band perform their All Aboard show. You can get tickets for this great event at Beausejour Music on 3rd Street South.

Here is an interview I did with Scott when he came by the studio. Enjoy.

Thanks Gerald

You may have heard the news that Gerald Hawranik will be moving on from elected office and will not seek re-election as our MLA this October. He will continue to serve as our MLA for Lac du Bonnet Constituency until his term ends in October. Gerald Hawranik made the difficult decision to put his family first in his life, and looks forward to spending more time with them.

Gerald Hawranik was first elected to the Manitoba Legislature in a by-election in 2002, was re-elected in 2003 and again in 2007 and has served previously on the council in Beausejour. In his time at the Manitoba Legislature, Hawranik has served in a number of critic portfolios, including Aboriginal and Northern Affairs, Advanced Education & Literacy, Justice and Finance. He has also played a key role in the Manitoba PC Caucus as House Leader.

Town Radio Beausejour would like to take this opportunity to thank Gerald for his many years of public service to our community, and to wish him well in his future endeavours.

Norman Voss on his Beausejour song

Lane — Fri, 11 Feb 2011 01:04:31 +0000

Here is the interview I did with Norman Voss, and John & Gail at Beausejour Music about the song he wrote and recorded titled Beausejour. Can you guess what it’s about? I don’t have the actual song linked, but you can tune in to 93.9 FM to hear it. So when Norm introduces it at the end, that’s where the interview ends.
