MEOTA — We will start off with a correction. The beautiful Irish castle is not the Blarney Castle but is the Kylemoor Castle north of Galway. It now has become an abbey and girls’ school.
The warm summer weather has brought out the beachgoers and party animals. Photos show the Welfords as they suntan at the Meota lakeside pool (and prepare to party). The second photo also shows how great it is to be able to enjoy the sun and water with friends, in comfort and safety.
The pool got a late start this year with maintenance required to the floor and new sand replacing the old. Great to see the Lions’ efforts of years gone by still being put to such great use.
Meota Community Park on Second Avenue East is awash in flowers blooming and the gazebo is ready for use. Thanks to Florence and other caretakers.
The week’s activities: canasta HKF, first – Marion Ottas and Vivianne Lesko; second – Carrol Spence and Lillian Serenko; third – Vern Iverson and Bev McCrimmon; Thursday bridge, first – Fraser Glen and Jean Lawes, two-three tie – Cletus Scherman and Andrai Sharpen with Albert Blais and Linda Ard.
Seniors’ golf was another excellent morning to be out with friends, being warm with a slight breeze. Taking the consolation money were Lynn Bouchard, Dennis Tebay and Elsa Ferguson. Winning the big money – Jack (not fish) Day, Jerry Goodheart, Louise Goodheart and Ken Buchinski with a score of 38.
