Message from the Chair #5

100 Years of Yersterday
by Chairperson Terry Diack

The Centennial Registration Committee has been working hard to make it easy for you to register for the Huge July 20th Centennial Celebration. Now you might wonder---Why should I register? I live in town, I can just walk over to whatever is going on. And so many of the events are FREE or pay at the door. So, you wonder, why register.
Because it will make the weekend that much better.
For example, the Three Hills Chamber of Commerce is again sponsoring a Kid’s Carnival Saturday Afternoon, but only 20 kids register, so they figure well, we’ll estimate that 40 kids will show up, and so they only order 40 balloons to hand out......Along comes the big day, 150 kids show up, but they only have 40 balloons. Do you see a problem?
Plus everyone who registers before May 30th is automatically entered to win a free gift basket. So please, register. It will help so much with the planning..

Registration forms and Schedule of Events now available on line at www.​threehillscentennialcelebratio​n2012.blogspot.com/
Registration and Volunteer forms can also be picked up at the Centennial Office at All Site Travel on Main Street.

Well I’m on about planning. Have you any plans for your flower beds this spring? Communities in Bloom has chosen Red & Gold as the official flower colors. It would be an awesome sight to yard after yard sporting Red & Gold flowers.

What's happening in April?

Hold on to your hat.  April is one busy month.
It starts off with a bang on
 April 1st--Potter's Clay Quartes w/Singing Hills preforming at the Community Center

Message from the Chair #4

January.

(click here for more details on upcoming events)

Plus,
Volunteers will be barbecuing up a storm in front of the General Store
every Friday from 11am-1:30pm from now until July
to raise funds for the Habitat for Humanity House. 
I had a smokie from them last Friday, and I know I will be coming back for more. 
Where else can you get lunch for 5 bucks and support a great cause at the same time?  

The Centennial Committee has been busy hammering out the details
that will make the July 21st weekend spectacular.
For starters,
The entertainment for the July 21st will include Trooper, The Emeralds, Ben Crane, Fireworks, Local Musicians, Parade, Tractor Pull, Battle of the Axes, plus many more events that are awaiting confirmation.

Food is another big aspect of the weekend.  After all, who wants to cook when they could be visiting and taking in the sights.  Therefore, the Centennial Committee is working hard to make sure you won’t have to wash a pot  or pan  or dish  that weekend.
 
Want to chit chat a bit with some of the committee volunteers.  Well you can visit them at the Three Hills General Store’s Grand Opening --March 22, 23 & 24. . Various members of the committee will be on manning a table with all sorts of information available for you to see.
