At their April 4 meeting, Deka Lake & District Volunteer Fire Department Ladies Auxiliary (LA) welcomed new resident Andrea Lee.
The LA’s raffle tickets are now available, $5 each or three for $10. Prizes comprise a quilt donated by Central Okanagan Search & Rescue; an electric boat motor donated by Mary Shennum; an afghan donated by Debbie Patterson; hand-crafted cheese platters donated by Gary Sayenchuk; and a birdhouse donated by Lorelei Jones.
The raffle will be drawn at the summer Fishing Derby, August 5.
The Fall Dinner/Dance was set for October 13.
The LA was then delighted to welcome the Log Cabin Quilters (LCQ) for a splendid lunch, after which LCQ’s Olaug Jaenicke won the door prize of David’s Tea and infuser.
Condolences
Interlakers were sorry to learn that Roe Lake’s Brian Ternent passed away on March 18 at the age of 73. A resident since 1976, the particularly helpful soul was best known as BJs Chimney Sweep. Sincere sympathy is extended to his family and friends.
A Celebration of Life will remember Bud Ritchie, previously a director of Roe Lake & District Recreation Commission, at Interlakes Community Centre (ICC,) 2 pm, Saturday, May 19.
Congratulations
Her many friends send birthday wishes for Ruth Allan’s 76th birthday.
