Some of you may already be
familiar with my name from
Dungannon Doings fame. For those
who don’t know me from a hill of
soggy old tea bags, I live at RR2,
Auburn.
From time to time you will hear a
bit about my family and what we are
up to. This way you can get to know
me a bit as I get to know all of you.
Now one of the first things you
will learn about me is that I drink tea
when I write. So cozy up, pour me a
double. I have my trusty beagle
Molly by my side so let’s dip into
the Auburn accountings shall we?
Our family, namely husband
Wayne, myself, Jeffrey and Leah,
Walkerburn Club
meets at D. Snell’s
Deanna Snell opened her home for
the March meeting of the
Walkerburn Club with members
wearing something green for St.
Patrick’s Day. Mrs. Snell opened the
meeting with prayer, followed by a
reading, Great Grandmother’s Quilt.
She, along with Betty Archambault,
gave some Irish sayings.
Mrs. Archambault read the
minutes of the last meeting and
Bernice Norman gave the treasurer’s
report. Roll call was a favourite Irish
song or something about an Irish
settler.
Mrs. Snell’s sister, Wilma Scott,
provided the program, showing her
crazy quilts and how to make them.
The members put a few stitches in
the next Quilt for Cancer and will be
spending time over the coming
weeks finishing it.
Ila Cunningham, along with the
hostess, served lunch of carrot cake-
and ice-cream along with fresh fruit
and cheese.
Club members are going to the
Restview Retirement Home in
Clinton on April 19 to play bingo
with the residents.
The next meeting will be April 28,
at the home of Ethel Ball. Pat
Hunking will provide lunch and
Christena Gross will provide the
program.
