Our Xmas dinner, Dec 5th, was a huge success. Excellent turkey and trimmings were enjoyed by 106 seniors. Some delightful entertainment followed with a few steps from Alice's Line Dancers, and great music was provided by Norm Post. A delicious dinner at noon and an exceptional show at the Famous People Players made our Outing to Toronto very enjoyable. Possibly, a luncheion outing may be arranged for March and watch for details of Fred's Euchre Tournament in May. Elections are coming up again. Nominations at the February dinner meetings, and completion
Of elections at the first
meeting in March. This is an annual process. Come and join us. |

Whether it's a special occasion, or just friends getting together, everybody loves a party. But if you're hosting a party it's important to remember that, while everyone should have a good time, your party goers should not become a danger to to themselves or the community by drinking and driving. The Ontario Community Council on Impaired Driving has come up with the following list to help make it easier for anyone to host a safer party.
Remember, you are
responsible for your guests’ actions and behaviour. With a little
pre-party planning, You can ensure that everyone has a good time, without
making North Kawartha's road and highways less safe. |

The Youth Committee is alive and well with 2007 looking to be an exciting year. Starting with the upcoming Winter Carnival on March 3rd, as your NKYC will be helping out the Apsley Lions with this event. Our elections were held last year with Lori White taking over as Chair and Bethany Armstrong as co-Chair. Christine Everett recently resigned her position as past chair due to scheduling, and we would like to thank Chris for all of her hard work on behalf of the youth in our community. Lannie Reynolds has rejoined our committee as our advisor and we appreciate his direction. The Apsley Legion generously allows the youth committee to use their upstairs hall for our bi-monthly meetings, which are held every second Wed. at 4:15 pm. So if you, or anyone you know are interested, and are between the ages of 13 and 18, feel free to contact us, and come out to some meetings and events! All are welcome! We have some great ideas for the upcoming year, from fundraisers, to town events, and we hope that you all will continue to come out and show your support, and have some fun!

We
started 2007 with a delicious roast pork dinner prepared, with love, by
Helen P. Join us for our Tuesday lunches and Euchre games.
Local
resident Mark La Puque was startled Fri., Jan 5th
at about 11.30 at night in Woodview, Ont. Strange lights were seen
and low giggling sounds were heard from a small creature that darted
across Hwy 28, just at Northey’s Bay Road. In fact sightings have
been reported most days and nights of the week (except Mondays and
Thursdays!). Sargeant Kevin Dignan with the Apsley detachment of the
O.P.P. has himself witnessed those 2 legged “elf-like” creatures
hopping across the Hwy and into the woods on either side of
THE BLARNEY STONE IRISH PUB since
it first opened in Woodview (20km. South of Apsley at Northey’s Bay
Road) in December 2006. The Sargeant went on to state that, “No one
in my native Ireland has ever caught one of these creatures, but
suddenly they are being seen around this new Irish Pub! It is no
coincidence”.
