Canada PClla Member of the Canadian Community Newspaper Association and the Ontario Community Newspapers Association Kingsbridge Centre Harvest Dinner and Auction fundraiser coming up Nov. 12 As we once again enter our harvest season it is a time to reflect on the bountiful blessings that have been bestowed upon the St. Joseph's Kingsbridge Centre. With the assistance of enthusi- astic volunteers we are thrilled to announce that the very popu- lar Harvest Dinner and Auction has been scheduled for Satur- day, Nov 12, 2016 in Goderich. Over the past year abundant progress has been made towards the restoration of this historic church on the Bluewa- ter Highway, south of Huron - Kinloss, but there is still much to be done. "We need your help to make this event a huge success," organ- izers said in a letter to the editor. The Dinner and Auction will be held at the Knights of Colum- bus Hall in Goderich again this year. It is with high hopes that funds raised from this year's event will aid the Kingsbridge Centre in continuing its work of completing the basement hall. Tickets are $30 a person, which includes an exciting even- ing of food and socialization, plus an opportunity to partake in exciting silent and live auc- tions hosted by Huron -Bruce Member of Parliament Ben Lobb. "Perhaps if you are lucky, you will also take home a treasure or two from our many generous donators including local busi- nesses and citizens," the letter reads. Doors will open at 5:30 p.m. and all proceeds will go to the Kingsbridge Centre. Those interested in tickets are encouraged to call and organiz- ers said they would be happy to hand deliver or pick-up. For more information, tickets or to donate call Steve VanOsch 519- 440-6911, Helen VanOsch 519- 395-3690, Julie Kuik 529-7925, or Barbara Hogan 395-3431. Troy Patterson/Kincardine News and Lucknow Sentinel A fundraising dinner and auction is set for Nov. 12, 2016 at Goderich's Knights of Columbus Hall, with proceeds to the St. Joseph's Kingsbridge Centre basement hall renovations. Purple Grove community mourns the Toss of loved ones Purple Grove Women's Institute Contributors Our sympathy is sent to Deanna Reavie and all their family on the loss of Stuart Reavie. He served our community so well in his various roles. Sympathy as well to Gwen Harrison and her family on the death of Howard Harrison. We also grieve with Donna Colwell Zeigler of Port Elgin, her daughter Karen and family on the untimely death of Jim Prentice. Friends of Sylvia Hasbury and Sandra MacDonald gathered to celebrate their birthdays and also to wish Wendy Houghton great success in their move from our area. Mary Anne Kukoly enjoyed a weekend away with her cousin Betty and Ken Morrison. The fall colors were spectacular. While in Hunstville they also ventured to the Bala Cran- berry Festival. Because the weather was so great they had a huge turnout. This past Thursday Mary Anne visited with Ruth McCosh in Goderich. Members of the Ripley Horti- cultural Society appreciated and enjoyed hearing from Rachel Thompson, formerly from New Zealand on Flower Designs and Landscape Design and Mainte- nance for the month of Septem- ber and from Bill Smith who spoke on the History of Gertrude and Beatrix who were two women, the forerunners in their field of Horticulture and flower Design, for the October meeting. John and Joyce Farrell enjoyed supper at Elmira with family members on Sunday. Everyone enjoyed the Curling Club Brunch Sunday. Lots of great food and conversation. Curling is starting up before Christmas, it's a great sport to learn. Recent visitors with Jim and Fran Farrell were Simon and Jan Logtenberg of Dungannon and Jamie, Crystal and Danica Farrell of Holstein. Jim and Fran Farrell and Barb and Tom Hicks of Rockwood had supper with Jeff and Carmen Knapp Sunday evening. Cheryl Bridge and MaryBeth Kerr attended the 90th birthday party held Saturday night for Mildred Griffith in Kincardine. Many friends, family and new and old acquaintances attended to share memories and reminisce with Mildred for the evening. Congratulations Mildred. Carman and Cheryl Bridge enjoyed lunch and a visit with her sister Diana and her hus- band Ron Ellis of Goderich on Sunday. They enjoyed the drive down and the view of the fall colors of the trees along the way. Many farmers are still very busy with the fall harvest, so we still need to be vigilant when travelling on our roads and highways and making travel safe for everyone. Ladies a reminder of our next Purple Grove WI Meeting to be held at the Purple Grove Com- munity Center on Nov. 2. Our speaker will be Yolanda Cam- eron on WES. All are welcome to come out and attend our meeting. LUCKNOW NEWS Lucknow community has a few new grocery options each week Ruth Dobrensky Like all Blue Jay fans across Canada, I'm crying in my beer. Our only consolation is that, there's always next year. We have two new options in town for the purchase of fresh produce and other grocery needs. The first option is called Fresh Xpress, the grocery store at your door. The tightly packed cube van owned by Jeannine Leutenegger from Gowanstown has been in business for about one and a half years. She travels four days a week in winter and five in summer from Atwood to Rothsay, Wroxeter to Trow- bridge, and now to Lucknow on Tuesdays. The Fresh Xpress truck stocks everything from baking needs to personal and household goods, frozen meats and ice cream to jam, relish and fresh baked goods from the Fresh Start Bakery in Gowanstown. She provides a list of all foods available and if you ask for something she doesn't have, she'll try to find it for you. Jeannine said that "business is good but there have been some problems, and that she is now looking forward to the winter, which is always busier for her. If you haven't seen her van, she comes to Lucknow every Tuesday afternoon, starting at the Ostbek apartments at approximately 2:50 p.m., the Rivervalley apartments for 3:10 p.m., the Legion parking lot around 3:30 p.m., and starting this week to the Sepoy apart- ments around 4 p.m. If you missed them at one of the stops, it's only a few minutes drive to the next stop. The times are approximate only, so you may be waiting for a few minutes. Our other new option is from Hilltop Farms on the Belfast Road. They began coming to Lucknow last Wednesday and if they have a good turnout out will be back every Wednesday, parked beside the post office box building. Hilltop Farms provides some organically grown vegetables as well as many other fruits and veg- etables. They will be here each Wednesday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., and if business is good, they may come on more than one day a week. There is also a possibility that they could expand into a store on a daily basis. I bought some of their mush- rooms, grown in Wingham, and they were delicious. The Lucknow Rumoli Club met last week for our monthly evening of eating and good fun. As usual, we ate too much, laughed and had a good time winning and losing our pennies to one another.
