The Town of Carberry, Manitoba, has published its July 2026 newsletter, bringing residents up to speed on everything from an upcoming festival to a new fire truck. The newsletter was released on July 23 and is available as a page-by-page PDF on the Town’s website.
The newsletter highlights the Prairie Harvest Festival, set for Saturday, August 22. The event will include a street market, food trucks, children’s activities, a beer garden at the Legion, and live music from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.
Council has approved a final payment of $717,011.27 to Commercial Emergency Equipment for a new Pierce BX pumper fire truck. The cost is split 50/50 between the Town and the Municipality of North Cypress-Langford. The Carberry/North Cypress-Langford Fire Department, led by Fire Chief Clyde McCallum, provides emergency services to both communities.
The newsletter also welcomes Dr. Hanan Almanama and her family to Carberry. The community helped them settle in with a meal, a tour of local amenities, and support from a realtor to find housing. This comes as the town’s new 36-site campground on Wellwood Road, across from the Carberry Plains Community Centre, nears completion.
Residents are reminded that 2026 property taxes are due on September 30. Looking ahead, Manitoba’s Municipal General Election takes place on October 28, with registration for Mayor and Councillor positions open until September 22.
