Breakfast at Interlakes Market
Saturday, Jan. 28 saw the first of three free breakfasts provided by Interlakes Market Canco, which served over 40 happy residents. The Market now asks for a minimum donation of $1 per breakfast—which will be matched by Interlakes Canco—with all proceeds being equally divided between Deka Lake & District Volunteer Fire Department and Interlakes Volunteer Fire Department.
Feb. 11, from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m., is your last chance to support our VFDs in this manner!
Mountain Spruce events
This month’s Ladies Night, tonight, Feb. 9, at Mountain Spruce Community Centre (MSCC) is entitled “Spa Night.” Those lucky enough to have a space will make bath bombs and sugar scrub, after enjoying a hand salt scrub followed by a relaxing paraffin hand dip and a full hand moisturizing massage. Ladies were even invited to wear PJs so they could just jump into bed for a restful sleep when they got home!
Great to see the popular Jam Night coming back at 7 p.m., Feb. 11. Bring your instruments and voices, and jam with friends and neighbours. All ages, skill levels and abilities are welcome. Let’s hear all the talent from around our lakes!
Check their Facebook page for details on the Resin Workshop on Wednesday, March 22, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., restricted to ages 19+. Reserve your $60 spot ASAP.
Stay tuned for a Full Moon Snowshoe/Walk at MSC Park on March 11.
MSCC is really outdoing itself these days! Residents are most appreciative and look forward to the next brilliant idea.
