HoneywoodThree happy events happened at Honeywood United Church on Sunday, June 16, 2013. Carolyn (Laverty) Johnson was able to attend, and be part of the worship service. We all continue to pray for good health for Carolyn. Rev. Jennifer Laverty and children from Saskatchewan were also in attendance. The baptism of Derek Richard Martin, son of Steve and Kate (Armstrong) Martin, was held during the service. Family and friends gathered after church at Steve and Kate's home. All are welcome to the Annual Honeywood Strawberry Supper on July 1 on the arena floor. Shelburne Café was filled to capacity this morning, Monday, June 17, when two birthdays were celebrated, Alex Aldcorn and Dennis Leitch. Following our coffee and muffins, we all enjoyed excellent music provided by local musicians. Sunnybrook Hospital Fundraiser: Saturday, June 8, 2013 was a beautiful day for the Sunnybrook Hospital fundraiser. A huge crowd came to Avery's Act of Kindness fundraiser at Stan Coe's Farm (Redickville). It was a fun day. Face painting, bouncy castle, Ms. Weaver's exotic animals, little lambs to pat, and Bossy Bingo were some of the activities. Dufferin County's Ambulance and Paramedic displayed some of its equipment. Honeywood Fire Department gave tours of their fire trucks and other equipment. Wagons drawn by teams of horses or mules gave families a ride through the maple bush. A lunch of hamburgers or hotdogs, baked potato, pop or coffee was available all day. At 2 p.m. butterflies and purple balloons were released by family and friends in memory of Avery. The silent auction had many lovely items such as a large star mirror, an electric fireplace, leather jackets, Blue Jay tickets, golf for a day, child's rocking chair, handmade baby quilts, balloon ride, an airplane ride, tools, framed pictures, and a large selection of other items. A tug of war pitting horses against man ended the day with Larry Keating and his team of horses against fifteen strong men. All donations and money raised at this fundraiser will be used to buy a new incubator for Sunnybrook N.I.C.U. and aid Family Services. Brad and Ashley Pullen and their daughter are so grateful to everyone for their donations and support. It was an amazing day. |
