Well folks, first last week we get a substantial snow fall of about seven inches on the ground, and now this week we are losing it all with the mild weather. When is it going to settle down and be a normal winter? MacTier Royal Canadian Legion Branch 507 has held over the past two months a men’s dart league. The playoffs are now over and the overall winners of the league were Truman Watkinson, Roy Morgan, and Mike Fisher. Congratulations.
Also, remember the Legion New Year’s dance on December 31 Music is supplied by a band called Swells from the Port Carling area. Advance tickets are $20 per person and you can get them at the legion. If you are paying at the door its $25 per person. Dance starts at 9 p.m. Come on out and bring forward the New Year.
MacTier Community Policing reminds you that they hold meetings every second Saturday of the month starting at 9:30 a.m. Everyone is welcome.
Come and voice your concerns. Community Policing is in need of volunteers, please come and join us at our next meeting.
MacTier Public School Christmas concert was held recently in the school gymnasium during the afternoon. The students did very well on stage.
They start the Christmas break this week and will be back January 7 to start another term.
MacTier Curling Club will be holding a Stick Curling Bonspiel on Sunday, Jan. 13. This
is two to a team and operates similar to shuffleboard. You get three games with a partner, all teams are drawn from the hat and you get a lunch during the day. The cost is $25 per person and we need 16 players. Contact yours truly at 705-375-2619 if interested.
The Township of Georgian Bay Parks and Recreation winter activity guide arrived in the mail this week. Plan to enter some of the great activities and enter the children in the March break items.
Contact Seanne Goodfellow at 1-800-567-0187 or e-mail sgoodfellow@gbtownship.ca.
At this time I would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a healthy, prosperous happy New Year. Please take note, don’t drink and drive!
