Hey there, time traveller!

Holiday lights will be on display near the City of Brandon’s community services complex on McGregor Avenue for the rest of the winter season.
The Manitoba Hydro Power Smart Waterfall of Lights display was officially turned on Friday and will remain lit from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. each night.
Vehicles are not allowed in the direct area of the display, and the public is encouraged to park in designated areas on McGregor Avenue or Hilton Avenue and walk to the lights.
The city’s community services department asks that all members of the public remain at a safe distance from the lights and to not walk where power cords are present.
The city is also marking the official opening of Hanbury Hill, located off Braecrest Drive in Sir Winston Churchill Park, for tobogganing.
A warm-up gazebo will be open from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m., while decorative and flood lighting will be turned on each night from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m.
Toboggan hills can also be found in Rideau Park, the Wheat City Golf Course and Recreation Centre, 34th Street and Cherry Crescent, and Parkdale Park.
The public is asked to keep away from the fenced-in areas at the Wheat City Golf Course and Recreation Centre, and to watch for heavy machinery while construction occurs.
City crews continue to prepare the public skating oval along McGregor Avenue. A tentative opening date has been scheduled for Dec. 14.
For more information on public winter activities provided by the community services department, call 204-729-2148.
