We’ve had some distinctly winter-y weather this week with the first major snowfall of the year! Although, we aren’t sure it can be considered the ‘first’ snowfall of the year since it snowed in January.
Nora U. is celebrating her 29th birthday next week! Also celebrating is honorary Kagawongian Dwyne C. It must be nice to have a birthday in these cold days. You stay comfy and warm with all your friends toasting you all day long.
It is hunting season and we hope all you hunters have had a safe and productive week. Team Fergmeijer actually thought we would try hunting for the first time this year. We thought we would start small with turkeys, and we shot one one our first try! But man, did we ever freak out everyone else in the grocery store!
Christmas in Kagawong was a huge success again this year. Many thanks go out to the organizers, the volunteers, the vendors, and those who came out to support local business and artisans!
Coming up this weekend you can continue with the Christmas spirit by joining the Manitoulin Community Choir for their annual Song and Cider concert! This is always a phenomenal concert of good cheer and great music. On November 25th, be sure to get to the Park Centre early for a good seat! Show starts at 7:30pm.
A fan favourite holiday event is the Billings Community Christmas Concert. This year it is on Saturday, December 9, starting at 7pm. We need more performers to round out the night. Want to tell some jokes (you can’t be as bad as Mike)? Or maybe recite a poem or monologue. Whatever gets you in the mood, let us know at Kagawong@live.ca or reach out to us at www.Facebook.com/Kagawong1.
Ladies, has it occurred to anyone else that your wedding dress would make excellent snow camo for hunting season? Okay, okay, equal opportunity - guys, you could use this hunting hack, too.
There was a Euchre tournament in town last Wednesday. Fred Pickard and Jim Langtree took top prize with 74 points. Kal Merrylees and Wilma Wright came in just behind with 70 points. Third place was Donna and Eva; Loners were Ken and Theresa; low score award goes to Graham and Sheila Fogal, and the door prize went to Wilma.
The Heritage Centre is closed for the season and they would like to thank all of their generous supporters and the volunteers who made this year’s one-of-a-kind Lester Pearson display possible. Here’s looking forward to another amazing year in 2018!
The end of rifle season marks the time of year when many seasonal residents close up camps and cottages for the winter. For Team Fergmeijer, this time of year also brings a solemn realization - 6 more months until Steve Paikin comes back to Kagawong.
