The race is officially on to fill the six Shaunavon Town Council positions.

One name in the running is Shaunavon resident Conrad Hofmann.

Conrad and his wife, Joanne, retired here from Fort McMurray Alberta, where he was a Heavy Equipment Mechanic, almost five years ago and love living in the community.

They have two sons who live in Manitoba and Alberta, as well as three grandchildren.

Hofmann says he feels the town is being run pretty good and he knows he as the time to devote to the position.

He adds, "There's a lot of retired people in this town and I just thought that they would need a person who can, ya know, look after their concerns and speak up for various things."

Shaunavon residents head to the polls on October 26th.
