April 20, 2022

 Earth Day is coming up this Friday, and Team Fergmeijer wanted to give a big shout-out to the planet. No one keeps us grounded like you do! And in honour of the occasion, we will be sending all our work emails to the recycling bin. 

The Easter bunny hosted an enthusiastic group of mini Kagawongians on Friday for the annual Easter egg hunt. Thank you to the wonderful volunteers and to everyone who hopped on out!


Exciting news from the Billings Climate Action Committee! Not only is the first Billings Earth Day event since pre-pandemic times coming up this Saturday (April 23) from 1pm-4pm at the Park Centre, but the new Climate Action Committee blog has gone live! Check it out at http://Billingscac.blogspot.com for more information on the Earth Day event.


Team Fergmeijer plans on celebrating Earth Day by having Pangeacakes for breakfast! Sorry, some Earth Day puns are really terra-ble.


Happy birthday to a collection of fierce women: Marilyn P, Jean W, Kristy C are all celebrating a 29th spin around the sun in the next few days. Remember, at this age, you need to do a safety check of the fire extinguisher before lighting all those candles on your cake. 

 

Can’t wait to get your summer on? You are in luck! The Kagawong Market is kicking off its 2022 season early this year. The first market day is scheduled for Wednesday, JUNE 1st, and will run every Wednesday from June through August.

 

Have you heard about the restaurant that caters only to dolphins? It only has one customer, but at least it serves a porpoise.

 

The indomitable Mary Buie traded off the last snowflakes of winter for a tropical beach as she joined other members of her family in beautiful (and warm!) Hawaii. Not to be out done, MBB also strapped on a lei and his most obnoxious Hawaiian shirt as he and Susie joined in the fun. We are happy they were able to have such a wonderful (and did we mention warm?) time, and we look forward to hearing all about it in person. 


Remember, you can’t weather a tree, but you can climate. Have a great week, and may the forest be with you!
