Communities in Bloom has been very busy filling all the planters around town with Christmas decorations. It looks so much better than empty containers. The peacock is especially pretty when lit up. I also notice the town has replaced the old Christmas decorations on the light standards with new ones. Next we will watch for the lit Christmas tree in front of the arena.
Thank you to the three volunteers who helped me at the bingo at Pine Island Lodge last Friday. They were Noele Coulthand, Irene Kerr and Marilyn Stewart. Ten of the residents turned out to play. Prizes were supplied by the Drop-In Centre.
Bingo was played on Nov. 23 with volunteer callers being Margaret MacEachern and Denise Newton. Lunch was provided by Molly and Lawrence Den Ouden.
