November 27, 2015

Team Fergmeijer will be celebrating Black Friday today in their traditional way… by completely ignoring it! We got our head start on holiday shopping this past week thanks to many amazing local vendors. Christmas in Kagawong was a huge success again this year. Between Friday night’s community supper (hosted by EDC), the fabulous silent auction supporting the library, and the skilled artists and craftspeople, it was one for the books! Thank you to all of the vendors and volunteers at all of the various venues for kicking off the holiday season in style.

Come for the music, come for the laughs, come for the Superman! December 12 marks the return of the Kagawong Christmas Concert. You won’t want to miss it! Anyone interested in performing can contact us.

Happy belated 29th birthday to Mary Buie! You can hear Mary sing with the Manitoulin Community Choir as they present their annual Song & Cider concert tomorrow at 7:30pm at the Park Centre. Tickets available at the door.

The Kagawong Canine Society continues to gather every Sunday at 1pm with more and more dogs and their humans joining in the fun.

We know there’s Euchre happening on Wednesday evenings at the Park Centre, but we never hear tell of the scores! Please let us know who the Extreme Euchre Champion of Kagawong (EECK!) is, so we can publish their glories. Interested in playing? Contact the EDC.

For more information on the Kagawong Fitness Centre or to start your membership, visit the Kagawong Facebook page.

In an act of extreme sneakiness, Team Fergmeijer recently got ahold of a classified document outlining the township office’s holiday policies:

  • Running aluminum foil through the paper shredder to make tinsel is discouraged.
  • Playing Jingle Bells on the push-button phone is forbidden (it runs up an incredible long distance bill)
  • Work requests are not to be filed under “Bah humbug.”
  • All fruitcake is to be removed from the lunch room BEFORE July 25.
  • Despite constant lobbying by a certain mayor, who shall remain anonymous, egg nog will NOT be dispensed in the vending machines.
