As you know, Gladstone 4-H Club won third place at the Brandon Fair. Now they have three hundred dollars to use within the Club. They have decided to give the Happy Rock Children Center two hundred dollars which they plan on putting towards their fundraising efforts to build the new center.

The HRCC is hoping to start building late 2018 but will depend on grants and money raised. The other money, one hundred dollars, will go to the Community Food Cupboard, so they can buy food for community members in need this holiday season.

The Curling Funspiel planned for Dec. 3 has had a change of date. Plans to reschedule until January possibly February are under way. They are hoping this is a better time for people to participate!

Club Scrapbook Keeper, Siohban Yorke-Ashman, reported that work is underway for the new 2017-18 scrapbook. She uses the newspaper clippings and pictures from project groups to complete the scrapbook. She asked the members and leaders, “Could you please take pictures of your projects and send them to me?”.

Several members and leaders enjoyed hot chocolate after the Tree Lighting in Gladstone. They also sang Christmas carols during the Midnight Madness on November 24.

Plans are underway for the new year with tobogganing at Valley View Hill which is in MacGregor. Members should watch their emails.

The Handi-Workers have been busy this holiday season and want to wish all a Happy and Safe Holiday Season!
