Henderson
Jean Brown

Henderson is rocking on in that two-week family vacation known as hunting season and I get hungry when out walking, smelling all the good home baking and meals being created for the hungry hunters. Pickled eggs and butter tarts are the two main favourites it seems. Our population has doubled with everyone coming home from “away” to hunt. Of course the “catch” is top secret- but that same old one seems to get away every year, and also gets bigger too!

Our Pine Meadow people enjoyed an outing to Iron Rooster Rotisserie and Grill in the Marmora area where they had a super duper time at this family run chicken spot on the seven highway.

Our own Marie White and crew host the Fiddlers event on Fri. Nov. 18 from 1-5 and the open mic on Sat. Nov. 26 from 1-5 at the ever famously fantastic Harlowe Hall. Entertainers $2.00 and all others $5.00. It’s a hoot and a holler! Food will be available to purchase.

Special thanks to our own Dave Riddell of Henderson/Bordenwood who custom made the gate latches at the Railway Heritage Park in Sharbot Lake. They are on the reproduction of a CPR stock pen from the original 1919 plans. Next spring when the wood is dry, the stock pen will be whitewashed. Thanks Dave “you done good!”

Samaritans Purse Operation Christmas Child is offering their boxes at the Kuriosity Shop12293 Hwy 41, Northbrook, from 2:30-5. Anja can give you further info at 613-336-2834. Let’s get behind this Christmas effort and get the boxes returned to the Kuriosity Shop by Nov. 19 at 5pm. Operation Christmas Child is an international Christian relief initiative of Samaritan’s Purse that works in more than 100 countries to fill up shoe boxes with Christmas gifts for children in need around the world. Last year, Canadians filled more than 413,000 shoeboxes with gifts such as toys, school supplies, and hygiene items, plus personal notes and photos. This year the war-torn Ukraine will receive shoe boxes from Canada. Thanks everyone for all the items that Canadians lovingly put in their shoeboxes, and the $10-per-box they donate to cover shipping and other program costs.

Tomorrow Fri. Nov. 11 is Remembrance Day so please check out the various celebrations held around the area and attend to offer remembering of this significant day.

Mississippi
by Pearl Killingbeck

Sympathy to family, friends and neighbours on the death of Marg Desroches – what a lovely lady she was, she will be missed.

I didn’t have many spooks on Halloween – only 3 but they all had great outfits. There was even a miniature “Lloyd Gilchrist” dressed for work at Gemmill Sand and Gravel. I want to thank my granddaughter Shawna for doing up my treat bags for me.

I heard there were approximately 108 people fed at the last skidoo club breakfast. The next breakfast will be on Saturday, November 12th from 8am to 11am.

Birthday wishes to Brenda and Barb Allen. Special 80th birthday wishes to Jim Dix – may you have a perfect day. Thank you Lorraine for the lovely visit and chat.

Sympathy to Wendy Crain again on the loss of another brother. Wendy – we are praying for strength for you to get through this terrible time.

Sympathy to the Lindop and Beckwith families on the passing of Karen Beckwith.

I want to thank the lady from Mississippi dump – Donna Denna – who stopped in for a visit and gave me a pair of Elvis earrings that had belonged to her mother. That was so thoughtful of her and I love them.

A big thank you to Kevin from Snow Road who gave me a large framed concert poster for Elvis in Canada at the Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto on April 2nd. That was Elvis’ first time in Canada – appearing with him were the Jordonnaires as special musical guests. He was also starring at the Ottawa Stadium on April 3rd. The price was $3.50. There is no year on the poster but that had to be many years ago before he was well-known. He had a matinee and an evening show. What a treasure! Thank you so much. He also gave me an Elvis head sound speaker. I will treasure these for as long as I have left.

Mark your calendars for the next community dinner – Wednesday, November 17th is Italian Romance night at the Snow Road Community Centre. Bring your favourite dish.

The games nights are being held every second Tuesday night at 7pm. at the Community Centre. Last Tuesday (1st November) Dieter and Janet were teaching/playing a rummy tiles game and there was the usual table of euchre being played as well. Come join the fun – practice the games you know, learn a new game or bring along a game you enjoy to share.

Pearl’s Gem: Every person you meet knows something you don’t – learn from them.

Ompah
by Linda Rush & Marily Seitz

There is a picture attached of some of the Ompah Pickleball players enjoying gentle exercise in the wonderful fall weather.

Ompah enthusiasts have found Pickleball!  About 10 folks from Ompah have played (sort of) at the two courts and nets at the rink at Clar-Mill Hall.  As long as the weather continues to be fair, the gang will get together.  They will be looking for an indoor place to play once the snows come.  If you want to join in the fun contact Marily (see info at the top of the Ompah column)

The Ompah Community Library is attached to the Community Centre and is open Wednesdays and Saturdays from 10am - 12noon.  You can obtain a wifi password without charge during library hours. Donations of cash are welcome to pay for the monthly internet fee.  Everything in the library has been donated and it is run by volunteers.   Donations of books and DVD's are welcome.  However, because of limited space, they can only accept books that are newer than 5 years old.  Unfortunately, recently several boxes were dropped off full of older books by wonderful mystery/thriller authors but there is no room for them.  Since it is a shame to throw out books, there is a table of good books for the taking outside the library door, in the hall foyer.  Please help yourself to as many books as you can use and pass on.

We hope everyone remembered to set their clocks back an hour and are enjoying the extra hour of sleep.  It has been so dark in the morning that I am now enjoying waking to the light.
