Community dinners are certainly not new to this area. There are the regular Friday night dinners at the Sharbot Lake Legion. There are excellent breakfasts hosted by the Lions club. There are pot luck dinners hosted by community groups and recreation committees in every village. There are annual church dinners and those wonderful pancake breakfasts hosted by the volunteer fire departments. You hardly ever need to eat at home!
But this year will offer something different. The Canada 150 committee sponsored by the St. Lawrence College Employment centre will provide every hosting organization with place mats promoting Canada 150. Every event using these Canada 150 place mats will be listed as a “Canada 150 Dinner” in the Frontenac News’ Northern Happenings column. They will also have the event posted on the Canada 150 Facebook page and website.
And there’s more. A tear-off portion of the place mat will serve as a free entry ticket for a raffle. The draw will be held at the event “A Soiree with Sir John A” to be held On October 28th. The prize is a beautiful, hand-made wooden train set offered by a generous supporter and kept on display at the Sharbot Lake Pharmacy.
The Canada 150 committee would like to thank all those who support this initiative – the pharmacy, the newspaper, the college, the anonymous train set donor and, of course, all those wonderful people who prepare and serve the meals.
