A friend recently sat down with us for a serious talk. They feel we may have gone pasta point of no return when it comes to puns. We promised to take their concerns to heart, and thanked them fiori their honesty.

TONIGHT! The folks at St. John’s Anglican church are hosting a homemade lasagna dinner at the Park Centre! Stop in between 5pm-7pm and get a hearty meal (eat in or take out) for $16 ($8 for children under 10).


Happy 29th birthday to a pair of saucy young Kagawongians who will remain anonymous. Enjoy your week!


The Library board is planning to spruce the place up a bit with a coat of paint on the walls. Anyone wanting to volunteer a few hours over the July long weekend packing up books, priming, painting, or unpacking books, drop a line to the (very friendly) librarian at 282-2944 or billingslibrary@vianet.ca.


We were saddened to learn of the passing of long-time summer resident Rev. Jeremy Mahood this week. He was a constant at the beach and marina for a lot of years. Our thoughts are with his family during this difficult time.

Some words of wisdom for the weekend: Don’t let your worries spirali out of control, it will just stress you out and you’ll find yourself feeling down and cannelloni, and maybe even getting angry fusilli reasons.
