No context for this week’s starter, other than that you know we a-peach-iate a good food-related pun: We could have sworn we heard about a country making money out of soft, pear-shaped fruit with sweet dark flesh and many tiny seeds… Though it may have been a fig mint of our imagination.
Thank you to everyone who came out to the Kagawong Remembrance Day service last weekend. We are very excited to see the results of the Ethel Mulvany documentary. A special thank you to the Old Mill Heritage Centre for hosting the event.
We’re so excited we’ve got our tinsel in a twist! This weekend, November 17-18, is the annual Christmas in Kagawong market. The many vendors will fill the Park Centre chock full of amazing, creative and unique things. While you are out, stop in to the Anglican church for goodies and gifts. They are also selling homemade tourtiere, turkey pot pies, and spaghetti sauce. We know what we’re having for dinner on Saturday! Christmas in Kagawong is THE spot to pick up interesting and unique items for everyone on your list (including yourself).
Rumour has it that Santa himself will be stopping by! Visit with Saint Nick at the Kagawong Outdoor Rink on Saturday November 18th, 2023 between 10am - 1pm. You can hand-deliver your letter to him, and be sure to smile for a photo. Emails will be collected if you wish to have a free electronic copy of the photo shared with you. Thank you to the Parks, Recreation and Wellness Committee for coordinating with Santa’s elves to free him up for the day to join us!
Have you seen some of the amazing items up for bid at this year’s Billings Library Silent Auction? Be sure to join the auction Facebook group (FB.com/groups/libraryauction) to be ready to bid when the auction starts. Bidding begins at 9am on Thursday, November 23rd and final bids must be in by 6pm on Sunday the 26th. All proceeds go toward funding our town library.
Turns out some people believe those who make bad birthday jokes should be pun-ished, so we will simply wish Dave T many happy returns as he celebrates his 29th birthday.
Warm up those vocal chords, and gather some friends for a skit - the annual Kagawong Community Christmas Concert is just around the corner! This (in)famous community event will be held on Saturday, December 2 at the Park Centre. We are looking for acts to fill the ranks, and have a VERY flexible definition of talent: skits, songs, recitations, jokes, juggling, sword swallowing… we are keen to see it all! Contact fergmeijer@gmail.com if you would like to take part.
Every now and then, Team Fergmeijer has to talk trash. Don’t forget that the Billings landfill is now on winter hours: Tuesdays and Thursdays 2pm-6pm, Saturdays 1pm-4pm, and Sundays 10am-4pm.
The township’s strategic plan resident survey is live! You have until November 26th to have your say. Access the survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/RGBNWBP
We hear deer hunters are always game for a good pun. That makes sense, since joke-wise, puns are the most bang for your buck. So then is it true that antlers make the heart grow fawn-der? Have a great week!
