3rd Annual Night Out a Huge Success

350 people enjoyed a pleasant evening
of free food, entertainment and meeting their
neighbours.
 
Thanks to 20 local community organizations, and

  • Scott Donaldson - the fiddler
  • Nathan Fleet - puppet show
  • Calvin The Magician - paid for by the Kirkendall Neighbourhood Association
  • Our regular blue grass band that has supported us every year
  • Union Gas for the Huge Barbecue and free hot dogs

  • Your Place Restaurant for the ice, condiments etc.
  • Locke Bagel for bagels
  • McDonalds for juice
  • Jumbo Video for popcorn, and 
  • other businesses in the area who helped out in other ways.

The police showed up in force. I counted at least 8. The Police Chief Ken Robinson and  our community service officer Greg Doerr and Brandi Frazier are three that most of us recognized. We appreciated their support.

Thanks to all who came and to all the volunteers without whom this event could not of happened.

We look forward to next years Night Out
