December 11, 2015

St. John’s Anglican Church congregation enjoyed a lively potluck on Tuesday. It was a fun evening with friends, neighbours, and food galore! One Michael Coomes was seen leaving the church with his arms full of goodies. He assured Team Fergmeijer that he wasn’t smuggling snacks out without permission, but we’ll reserve our judgement until we speak with the ladies in the hall.

Tomorrow!! Come for the music, come for the laughs, come for the Superman! Saturday marks the return of the Kagawong Christmas Concert, sponsored by the Manitoulin Psaltery Psociety. You won’t want to miss it! Admission cost is a donation to the food bank, in the form of cash or non-perishable food items. Performers can visit the Park Centre tonight at 7pm if they would like a practice run or to test the sound system before the big night. Stay tuned to this column for a full (and totally unbiased) review of the concert next week.

If you have some time in the next couple of weeks, take a tour around town and check out the wonderful Christmas lights and decorations around the town. As local holiday enthusiast Jamie Ward says, “Get in the spirit, yo!”

The next movie on the Library big screen will be The Martian, playing December 19th at 7pm.

Despite their shyness in reporting the results, we hear the folks who come out to the Euchre nights in Kagawong are an entertaining group and very welcoming. Contact Sharon Alkenbrack and the EDC for more information on weekly games and tournaments if you are interested in competing for title of Extreme Euchre Champion of Kagawong (EECK!).

One half of team Fergmeijer popped in to visit the Buie family last weekend and was treated to a surprise turkey dinner with all the trimmings! The other half of the team was properly jealous. Now, we’re aren’t saying every visitor to that household gets a full 5 course dinner, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the other half starts making excuses for impromptu visits on a regular basis from now until New Years.


Have a great week!
