Avalanche
of cloudʼs moody smoulder,
Careens

Our National Rifle Association

Monday, 19 December 2011 14:40 Written by Grant Prior

When I was a lad, many, many, years ago, I attended a high school in Ontario that required its male students to be members of the Canadian Army Cadet Corps. We were issued uniforms and shoes and wooden cut-outs of rifles with which we performed fancy close order drills.

We had a brass band and, once a year, would march through the streets of town with our wooden rifles to the stirring refrain of the “Thunderer” and other military tunes.

Get Sunday Creative!

Monday, 19 December 2011 15:49 Written by Marsha MacKay

Adult Creative Crafts is a fun social afternoon where we spend a few hours, away from the house, doing our own favorite craft or hobby in the company of others. We frequently have knitters, scrapbookers, beaders and quilters. The cost is nominal ($5) and we bring a savory or sweet to share for potluck lunch and snacks, and the kettle is always on for endless cups of tea.

Everyone is welcome and we'd love to see what others are working on. Please feel free to drop in anytime to see what we are doing.

We meet once a month on Sunday afternoon between 12 and 5:30 (our Winter/Spring schedule is January 22, February 26, March 25, April 22, June 24) and hope to see some new faces soon, the more the merrier! If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me.
