A disappointing development in Nipawin, as vandals have struck the Nipawin Elks and Royal Purple. “Just a few short weeks ago, three incredible ladies volunteered their time, energy, and hard work to give our fair booths a fresh coat of purple paint in preparation for the upcoming exhibition,” the organization explained in a social media post. “They spent hours making this space something our community could be proud of.” Unfortunately, their sacrifice was met with graffiti on the booths.
