Good morning, Leduc — here's what's happening around town this week.
A National Championship Just Wrapped Up in Our Backyard
The SPN Co-ed National Slo-Pitch Championship brought teams from across Canada to William F. Lede Park this weekend (July 31–Aug 3), turning the park into a full-on national event — games running all weekend, players and families in town, and a great showcase for Leduc's ball diamonds. If you caught a game (or three), you know exactly what we mean.
