WPCO and the Wolf Point Elks Lodge are teaming up for a Halloween carnival to be held at the Elks Lodge upstairs ballroom from noon to 4 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 31. The free event is for children through 12 years of age. Parents/guardians must attend with their children.
“Make sure to bring your kids to the Elks,” Hamilton said.
The organization is planning a Thanksgiving dinner starting at 5 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 22. The location is tentatively planned for the Wolf Point Community Center. WPCO is spending up to $10,000 for the meal. The pow-wow committee will do the catering.
WPCO approved a funding request of $1,000 for the Catholic church’s CCD program. The funds will be used for dinners and awards.
Also approved was $500 each for expenses so Jett Azure and Jaz Azure can play in the World Tribes’ Invitational basketball tournament.
