Get ready to do some bidding folks! First of all, I would like to say a big thank you to all of the local businesses and individuals that support this very important event in our annual fund raising activities.

I'd like to give a special thanks to the past and current Kinsmen that have helped make this outstanding achievement possible. Many thingshave changed over the years' but the one thing that will always remain, will be the commitment we all have to "Serving the Community's Greatest Need."

PlucKinFest. This year will be something special with Canada turning the big 150. The town has formed a committee to put on some birthday celebrations which will fall on the same.' weekend as PlucKinFest. PlucKinFest will still have your favourite events such as the street dance, ball tournament, kids events, and of course the unofficial World's Largest Holey Board .Tournament with the added bonus of Canada's birthday celebrations.
