Get ready for a hippity-hop good time at the annual Easter egg hunt on Saturday, April 20! Come out to the Park Centre at 10AM to hunt for chocolatey goodness. And don’t forget… if you find an egg in the grass and it’s not wrapped in colourful foil, it’s not chocolate! Not to brag or anything, but our memories are so bad that we can hide our own Easter eggs.
Home sweet home! As of Wednesday, April 10, the Town Office is back in the Old Mill. Mayor Anderson was sad to see the end of his yellow office, but is glad to have the team back together in the clubhouse again. Rumour has it the interior may be getting a sun-shiny facelift to remind Mr. Mayor of those brief, glorious days.
Are black jelly beans the Easter equivalent of a lump of coal for naughty children?
Looking for a little night music? On Wednesday, May 1, all island schools are performing in a concert at Manitoulin Secondary to contribute to the Joan Mantle Trust Fund, which provides money for instruments for several of the concert band programs in island schools. The concert starts at 7:00pm; tickets are available at the door.
Never take financial advice from the Easter bunny. He sees nothing wrong with putting all your eggs in one basket.
Happy birthday to Maya H who celebrated her 29th last Sunday!
Calling all green thumbs - the community flower boxes are up for adoption for the growing season. Take on a flower box, plant what you love, water it over the summer, and bask in the admiration and gratitude of a thankful populace. Let us know if you are interested in joining the movement!
The MSS S.H.A.R.E/Go Green group is also organizing a water walk across the island on Saturday, May 11. Walkers will walk from dawn until supper along two routes (one starting at Misery Bay Provincial Park and going along highway 540, and one starting at Wiikwemkoong), both ending at Manitoulin Secondary in time for a celebratory feast. If you are interested in walking with the group, sponsoring a walker, or offering your washroom as a pit stop for walkers, please contact Chris Theijsmeijer at 705 968-0404 for more information.
With this unusual winter and spring, it’s less clear than ever when the smelts will start running. For all we know, they’ve already snuck up river for the season. Keep an eye on the Kagawong Facebook page for any news on the fishy front.
Looking for Council meeting minutes, or committees of council meeting minutes? Look no further than the Billings Township webpage: http://billingstwp.ca , which we’re sure stands for Billings! Turkeys Without Propriety.
When rabbits take group photos, do they give each other people ears?
The Billings Recreation Committee is looking for 2 volunteers to organize & manage the Kagawong Euchre Tournament held every third Wednesday of the month. Please contact Phyllis at 705-692-7248 if interested.
Our final thought for the day comes from a young fan who offered us the following:
How do you catch an unique bunny? Unique up on it! How do you catch a tame bunny? Tame way - unique up on it! Have a great week!
