Our 50/50 draw on Sunday, July 31/16 was a huge success.  Thanks to Velma, Stacey, Eric & Lexy for collecting thru the crowd and thank you to Marion for showing me how it's done at the table :)  A big thank you to the people too; we collected a good amount to go towards our 2016 fair.  The other half of the winnings go to Barry D'Arcey.  Congratulations Barry.
The people involved in the putting together this 3 day long celebration for Howick's 160th did an amazing job.  Thank You.
