Meota seniors to host luncheon at the lake

Meota News

The March Community Complex luncheon, being held March 20 will be hosted by the Meota Seniors from the Do Drop In. Proceeds will be divided between the hall and the Club.  

My grandkids in Costa Rica found the temperature at times a bit much – 35 by day and 27 at night. They enjoyed a tour of the rain forest, ziplined, hiked and swam. They saw howler monkeys, green palm viper snakes, large tarantulas and Foucon birds.

The golf cart is out on the lake waiting for the ice to melt and we know spring is here. It is one of the Lion’s methods of raising money when people turn in a time guess of when it will sink.

Duplicate bridge played in the Pioneer Hall Feb. 25 saw top score by Donna Scherman and Etta Weisner and second high score by Betsy Brown and Bob Brown. Feb. 27 saw top score go to Donna Scherman and Eric Callbeck, followed by Cletus Scherman and Anne Crozier. 

Norwegian Whist was played at the Do Drop In Friday with top scores going to Faye Goll, Linda Ard, and tied for third were Bev McCrimmon and Yvonne MacPherson. It was another nice socially active afternoon.

The Shrove Tuesday supper of pancakes and sausages held at the Do Drop In Feb. 25 was well attended and enjoyed by all. It also served as an outlet for the Girls Club to show the community one of the crafts they were working on – cute little toques to trim a Christmas tree – as they stood around the pool-table working on them. There was a display of photo albums showing projects from the past. Their meetings are held Tuesday evenings in the basement of the United Church. The older girls waited tables all evening. They enjoy their times and various projects under the leadership of Susan Demchuk, Lynn Joseph and Meg Wisner.

There’s a fish derby coming up at Turtle Lake March 7. For info call 845-7631 or 845-3216.

The Minnehaha Snowmobile Rally is being held March 8, eight miles east on No. 674 and five miles north on No. 679, from Edam. Info numbers are 441-5130 and 441-1138.

I forgot to mention that at their stop in Cambodia Joyce and Tony resisted the temptation to go touring in a taxi – which was a two-wheeled cart behind a motorbike – in all that dust and dirt it just wasn’t very appealing.
