Register, register, register...Do I sound like a broken record. I feel like a broken record, going round and round...How many vendors should we contact to provide burgers and hot dogs?? How many chairs should we set up for the Centennial Church Service? How many volunteers should we have to help with the kids’s carnival, security, art display, meet & greet?? The list of “how many’s” is endless. Please, please send in your registration form and ask (or nag) your friends and family to do the same. You can pick up the forms at Alsite Travel in Three Hills or print them off the internet at http://threehillscentennialcelebration2012.blogspot.ca/
On to another note, spring is in he air, thoughts of gardening must be just waiting to take root. As you are out shopping for bedding plants, please consider choosing red, gold and white, (these are the Centennial flower colors) You might want to throw a bit of purple in there, if you live near Anderson Park, and the Elks/Habitat for Humanity House. The cutting ceremony for this huge endeavour will take place on Sat, July 21, right after the opening ceremonies for the Centennial Weekend Celebration.
A hundred years ago, this week, the Titanic sank. 724 people set sail on the maiden voyage, only 175 survived. As we celebrate our Centennial, lets also remember those who are no longer with us, but helped make this town the great place that it is. Let’s remember, the pioneers who built this place and their descendents who have remained.
I remember my grandfather, who choose to settle here, after the initial wave of settlers. And I remember his work ethics. Once, when he was over 80, he asked me to help him repaint the shingles. But...he said, you paint the ones near the edge, the roof is too steep for you. (??!!) That was how my grandpa asked for help.
One last reminder, register, register, register.
