FUN AND GAMES ON CANADA DAY


 We all gathered at the Pavilion around 3:00 for a really nice
 ( and sunny) get together.  If you didn't make it out this year, be sure to plan on other times that are organized, as it is quite nice to meet your neighbors and friends in a relaxed atmosphere.




from the newest resident ( that would be Louise at the end)  to the oldest represented (Con) we all had fun and enjoyed it.

Notice the men cooling off...it really was warm!





 Then they got out the Bocce set and played.  Next time I'm playing, though I had to wash the car off and was a little late and missed it. The sap from the fir tree above us drips and I use WD40 to get the sap removed from the surface without removing the paint.  WD40 will remove anything sticky.  In fact, while painting Corina's fence with her I got paint in my hair and only noticed the end of my pony tail was glued together that evening!  I used WD 40 and it came out with gentle rubbing!!









 Everyone had fun at a trivia game, too.  Many won Canada Day hats or other prizes.



Diane and Fran were the winners 

 And then we ate!  What a spread!  it was a lot and everyone contributed.  

Then another game:  Name that Tune AND singer!  




Everyone had a hand and it was fun to try and guess. A good way to get to know your neighbors!


 Then the party began to break up with desserts and the pulling back of chairs and cleanup.

These two were the main organizers.  That's Jane on the left and Koleen on the right.  I think they did a fantastic job and we truly thank them for the lovely time!  Thanks!!
