On Oct. 16, a dinner was held at Spruceholme Inn in Fort Coulonge to welcome to the Pontiac a busload of American farmers, mainly from Vermont and New York. The key word for the evening was “local” with local food prepared by a local chef, local wine and beer, local entertainment and local levels of government attending. It made for a very impressive evening. David Gillespie of L’Isle-aux-Allumettes who spearheaded this project with the SADC is hoping that this will be the first of many Canamex (Canada American) tours.
Just a reminder there will be a Halloween dance in Sheenboro on Saturday evening. All proceeds are going to the Pontiac West Fire Services.
