Colder, shorter days are turning my thoughts towards the Christmas season. The Annual Craft and Bake Sale sponsored by local crafters and organised by Joyce Casement will be held Saturday, November 6th. What a great opportunity to do some early Christmas shopping. Local crafters will be selling hand knitted, sewn, and crocheted gifts as well as a variety of delightful seasonal pieces. This year will again feature a bake table by the Heritage Society. You will be hard pressed to find a tastier selection of pies, cakes, cookies and other yummies to tempt your taste buds. Lunch will be available. Trinity United Church. Saturday Nov. 6, 9 am to 2 pm

Tragedy struck Jim and Cynthia Chapman and their sons as fire devastated their home on First Lake Road in Bellrock. They escaped with only the clothes on their back. To help them recover please donate generously to the bright pink cans located in area businesses.
Dave and Sue McLay would like to thank all the people who have sent prayers and support over the last year and a half for their son, Rory. Last year, Rory returned from serving a 9 month tour in Afghanistan to discover he had cancer. They are happy to report that the treatment with interferon has gone well. Our continued good wishes for the future.
