January 8, 2016

A very happy new year to you and your family! Despite the risks this holiday season posed to the Kagawong Gobble Brigade, the KGB seems in fine form along the shore of the Bay.

Speaking of fowl, we have received letters of complaint that “Plucky” - the new Kagawong Fitness Club mascot - seems “angry.” We prefer to think of it as “motivating.” Are you motivated to get active? Set up a sneak peek at the club’s facilities or start your membership by visiting the Kagawong Facebook page.

It was a full house last Sunday for Aus’ 90th birthday party! Special guests brought greetings from all levels of government, from fellow mayors to Prime Minister Trudeau. Happy birthday, Aussie!

The MBFC (Mudge Bay Floaters’ Club) ever so briefly became the Mudge Bay Freezers’ Club over the holidays as two members made the plunge into chilly Lake Huron. We’re not sure who convinced MBB it was a very Canadian thing to do, but this time of year, we’d much rather be part of the Mudge Bay Fireplace Club.

Rain, snow or shine, the Kagawong Canine Society continues to gather every Sunday at 1pm with more and more dogs and their humans joining in the fun.

Once the ice moves in, be sure to come out for some community skating on the rink by the marina! At this rate, we’ll see you there by mid-February.

Euchre tournaments run every third Wednesday of the month now through March, beginning at 7:30pm - BYOP (bring your own partner)! Having fun is in the cards.

If there are any community events you would like mentioned in this column, please let us know at the email address above.

It’s cold, it’s warm. It’s cold again, it’s warm again. Climate change winter pro tip: Instead of a snowman, why not make a festive mudman? There’s nothing a bright red scarf and jaunty hat can’t make jolly!
