Mike and Stacey Lyons donate to Ronald McDonald House
Brenda Radford
Special to the News Record
I feel as though this week's
column is filled with upcom-
ing activities for all in
Londesborough and area to
keep in mind in the coming
weeks. Your support for all of
these events will be appreci-
ated. And as they say, doing
something for someone else
usually ends up being a
heartwarming experience.
The Londesborough
Happy Gang Seniors no
longer host a card party in
support of the Clinton Public
Hospital Auxiliary. However
these card parties are still
ongoing in the area and you
might continue your support
at another location. And
they all promise dessert and
coffee.
The Bayfield United
Church hosts two events on
Friday, April 17 at 1 p.m. and
7 p.m.
Everyone is welcome at
these locales. Cost is $5.
The Londesborough UCW
is planning a theatre outing
to Blyth again this summer.
Decisions regarding this
evening will be solidified at
the next UCW meeting so
stay posted and plan to be
part of the group.
An annual event for UCW
members is Westminster
Weekend in London. The
date for this year's event is
May 1 to 3. Contact Laura
Scott if you are interested in
attending.
The Campsite Experience
for UCW is set for June 8 at
Camp Menesetung. Keep
this date in mind as the
spring advances.
And speaking of camp,
this year's "wish list" can be
found in various locations in
the church. Check it out and
see if there is something on
the list you could help them
with. Needs range from
maintenance supplies to
sports items, office needs
and, of course, craft
supplies.
A new date was included
on the Easter Sunday order
of service at Londesborough
United Church. The stewards
are hosting a "take out" sup-
per on Wednesday, May 13.
These suppers of Swiss Cha-
let will be picked up in the
church basement. Tickets
will be available at Nature's
Nest and Radford's Farm
Equipment.
And speaking of support-
ing great causes friends and
family of Mike and Stacey
Lyons did just that. Last
spring their son, Connor,
made his arrival into the
world a tad early and for one
month Stacey lived at Ron-
ald MacDonald House in
London in order to be near
him She states she would
not know quite how she
would have coped without
the House. In appreciation
she petitioned relatives and
acquaintances to make
donations. The Lions Clubs
of both Londesborough and
Auburn happily helped as
well. Along with gift cards,
toys and cupboard supplies
the couple delivered $1800
in cash to the House on
March 20. The village
applauds your generosity,
Mike and Stacey.
Villagers probably noticed
moving activity last week-
end. Grant and Sandy
Bergsma became farm own-
ers and Bruce and Marie
Bergsma moved into the
house they vacated. It seems
all of Bruce and Marie's chil-
dren were on hand to help
with the switch. Grant will
appreciate having more
room for his construction
business and his parents will
appreciate smaller quarters.
