Canada Day in Sheenboro! This will be our 21st auction and are looking forward to all the generous donations you will bring in Friday evening before Canada Day.
We’ll be there from 6:30 to 8:00 pm. We accept most donations but steer away from large pieces of furniture. Offers of services such as yard work, painting, making dinners are great. Home baking and preserves are very popular. You can probably come up with better ideas than I can. Proceeds go to our Parish Hall and to the Sheen RA. Your donations are so appreciated and looked forward to by all of us. Call Angie at 689-2486 or Janet at 689-5640.
The Chapeau Gallery is now open Saturday and Sunday 10:00 am – 4:00 pm.
