Event Summaries

Dart Night – For everyone that chose to watch the hockey game instead of playing darts….you missed out….best out of three…501….Ken T’s team won and Trevor Kingsbury had High Score.


Family Game Night – Games were set up on the tables….but the Playstations stole the show. Chelsea Richards came in first, Sullivan Pigeon came in 2nd, and Cassie Richards took 3rd place in the Singstar Competition. Kory Davis won Guitar Hero, in 2nd place was Phil Rutledge, and Zak McKnight was 3rd. The video games came just in time….Thanks Kenny. The kids played Air Hockey, Pool, and Ping Pong.

HAWAIIAN DANCE – Lei’s were given to everyone who didn’t come dressed up. It was the kids versus the adults…who could get their request in faster to Mario…. (Hip Hop or Country) I think the adults won. According to the pictures….everyone had a blast. Thanks Mario.

Norwex Enviro Products Demonstration – Liz Ladouceur site #320, environmentally friendly, clean without chemicals – see catalogue in Rec Hall and at Store.


Canada Day Celebrations – We had cake and ice-cream…thanks to Linda O’Connor & Gail. Mario gave his time for another dance…the kids ruled this one.

The fireworks have been re-scheduled to the long weekend in August.
