Newfoundland Dinner/- Dance: Mark your calendars for Oct. 20th, when there will be a Newfie Dinner/Dance at the South Simcoe Community Centre, formerly known as Lefroy Arena. Emmie has been working hard on the preparations and has told me that all tickets will be $15 which will be available in September. Doors will open at 7 p.m. and a buffet dinner will follow at 7:30 p.m. Entertainment is live music along with Newfoundland skits during the desserts. There will be only one door prize....but a good one! The fun will end at 1 p.m. We advise that this is for adults only. Emmie is back from the 'rock' and the dance committee is meeting this week. Next week there will be updated information.

On a personal note, I would like to thank our family and friends who attended the birthday party on August 18th at the Royal Canadian Legion in Belle Ewart, where we held a joint party for myself and our son, Steve, to celebrate two milestone birthdays. A very special thank you to Bob Wilkinson, who came out to sing some songs...everyone enjoyed your singing, Bob, and a thank you to Bill VanBerkel for his great job as DJ. Karaoke was a blast!
