Roses sales at St. Mary’s and at Barrie Hill Farm raised ~$600 for the Rosary Apostolate to teach the rosary to children.
We made a great re-introduction to the gentlemen of the parish and we will have a few members joining the Council soon!
Thank you to our supplier, the roses were amazing. Thank you to Barrie Hill Farm for allowing us to add to your terrific Mother’s Day programs.
‘Finally, thank you to all the members who came out and made this happen!
Thank you all for coming! This was a great night. We had a great time and raised over $1,200 for Habitat for Humanity.
Thanks to our opening act Knight Train and our headliners Cabin Fever. You were all amazing and we would love to have you back.
Keep an eye open for more in our concert series. Our next event will be a performace by the OPP Chorus on June 6.
Thank you to everyone who came out to help. The property is looking great for a new season!

We had a great turn out. Many hands made lighter work (it was still heavy). Thank you to everyone who helped!
We also discovered lots of old treasures. Steve McDonald will be leading a Council History Project in the coming months. If you have old photos or records, let a member of the executive know and we’ll be in touch.
