Close to 40 members of the Borden Friendship Club travelled to Langham Jan. 21 where the Langham Plus 60 Club served a delicious ham supper with pie for dessert. Entertaining for nearly two hours was BJ and Friends with Jim Andres on mandolin, Vi Johnston on vocals, Bill Johnston playing guitar and singing, Sam Bueckert playing rhythm guitar and singing, Ruth Peters on bass guitar and vocals and Clarence Peters playing violin, banjo, harmonica and singing.
They played and sang many tunes. The group closed with I’ll Fly Away and the instrumental Joy In the Morning. Door prizes were taken home by Miriam Hamm and Anna Elliot from Borden and Margaret Hansen and Jake Peters from Langham. The club had made a quilt using the wool from Sela Balzers’ sheep and drew for it in December, with Colleen Dear named the lucky winner.
