Annual Women’s Institute bake sale a great success

Watch Lake & District Women's Institute (WLDWI) held its bake sale on April 2

The Watch Lake & District Women's Institute (WLDWI) held its bake sale on April 2 at the Cariboo Mall and raised $184, and the members thank all who purchased the baked goods.

If you would like to join the WLDWI, the meetings are held on the third Wednesday of every month at the Watch Lake Community Hall. Social and crafts are at 11 a.m. and the meeting commences at 12:30 p.m. Bring a lunch.

Garage sale items needed

When you start your spring cleaning and are thinking about discarding any used items, please remember the Watch Lake/North Green Lake Volunteer Fire Department (WLNGLVFD) Auxiliary’s annual garage and bake sale in May.

Items should be in fairly good condition and when donating small electrical appliances, indicate whether they are in working condition or not. No large appliances (stoves, fridges, washers or dryers) will be accepted, as these items are very difficult to sell and the firefighters have to dispose of them if not bought.

If you have any items to donate, please contact the writer for drop-off.

I try to write about the things that happen in our area, but I can only do that if I am made aware of the activities.

To the members of the clubs, organizations, groups and individuals of my area, please contact me to keep me informed on what is happening in our community. If you have events, get-well, birthday or anniversary wishes or news that you would like to share, call or e-mail the writer.
