Hey there, time traveller!

In recognition of Terry Fox Day on Monday, various services and businesses in Brandon are altering their hours of operation this long weekend.
The newspaper will also not be printed on Monday, although a news reporter will remain on duty and post breaking news at brandonsun.com. The newspaper will next be printed on Tuesday.
The following is a rundown of various local businesses and services’ hours of operation this long weekend.
The list is far from complete. If you want your service or business to be included in The Brandon Sun’s next holiday hours listing, email your hours of operation a few days in advance to tclarke@brandonsun.com, with “Holiday Hours” in the subject line.
City of Brandon
• Brandon City Hall (410 Ninth St.), the A.R. McDiarmid Civic Complex (638 Princess Ave.) and the Civic Services Complex (900 Richmond Ave. East) will all be closed on Monday and will reopen during regular hours of operation on Tuesday.
• Brandon Transit routes will run on an hourly schedule between 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. on Monday, though the Transit Information Centre on Rosser Avenue will be closed.
• The Eastview Landfill and Brandon Materials Recovery Facility will operate during normal summer hours on Saturday and Sunday and will be closed on Monday.
• Brandon’s Community Sportsplex, the Wheat City Golf Course and the community’s spray parks, outdoor pools and paddle pool will all maintain hours of operations through the long weekend.
Grocery stores
• The Real Canadian Superstore (920 Victoria Ave.) will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Monday.
• Both Sobeys Extra Brandon South (1645 18th St.) and Sobeys Brandon West (3409 Victoria Ave.) will be open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Monday.
• The Co-op Marketplace (1035 Richmond Ave.) will be open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Monday.

• The 40 (210 18th St. N.) will be open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. during both Sunday and Monday.
Pharmacies
•With too many pharmacies to list, it would be best that one contacts their business of choice to find out their weekend hours. Even so, Brandon’s two Shoppers Drug Marts (139 Victoria Ave. East and 1350 18th St.) are known for keeping holiday hours. They’ll be open from 9 a.m. to 12 a.m.
