Thank you to Graeme and Deborah Van Leer for sharing their canoe trip photos. Thank You to all that helped and attended the Fall River Canal Days 2011! Thank you to all the volunteers that made the Fall River Canal Days a success. We also want to thank all community members that came out to be a part of the celebration. Please have a look at the photo gallery. We are still in the process of adding more photos. If you have some you like to share, please contact us. Saturday, June 11 from 1-4 p.m. at the LWF Hall is the last chance to get your hands on the giant puppets. We are finishing of the painting of the puppets, hands, and rods.
Hope to see you there. Again a big Thank You to all the community members that came out over the last three month to create and help with the puppets. Special thanks to all the silent auction item donors and Brigitte Linder from Out The Box Chocolates that added a sweet taste to the evening. The Community Breakfast on July 1st was a great success. The Committee planned for 150 people but served approximately 240. It sold out and people (approx. 15) had to be turned away.
We apologize for any inconvenience. The $560 raised that morning went to GP Vanier Junior High School in Fall River for their Beautification Program. A big Thank You goes to all the Volunteers and Sponsors!
