February 26, 2005 |
| Preparation for the Field Day began in January. Tom and Janice Reed served as co-chairpersons for the Planning Committee. Also serving on the committee were Rob and Louanne Cameron, Jerry Chambers, Gary Clement, Chris Dickson, Sally and Ken MacFawn, Brian and Diane Mitchell, Sue and John Olsen, Gordon and Linda Phillips, and Bob and Louise Stickney. |

Louanne Cameron, Sue Olsen, and Janice Reed prepare "goodie bags" to pass out to the children at the field day. |
 |
Dianne Mitchell again spearheaded the creation of the snow sculpture. She spent several days and many long hours creating this snowmobiling polar bear. Also helping out on the sculpting were Linda and Gordon Phillips and Louise Stickney |
The day before the Field Day, volunteers
appeared like magic to get everything in place for the next day! |
 |
 |
 |
This trailer, donated to the club by Elise Boivin, was hauled down to the lower field to serve as the focal point for the Poker Run, and for membership recruitment. |

for the day. |

 |
Tom Reed and Ken MacFawn were seriously ready
to start feeding the masses ... |
 |
... while Sally ladled a serving of Fern & Betty
Dumoulin's homemade beef stew ... |
 |
... and Marcelle Miller and Sandy Carignan waited
on the hungry crowd. |
 |
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| It was a great day for children, young ones and older ones, and the slide was busy all day long. Many thanks to Brian and Diane Mitchell for spending almost the entire day overseeing the sliding activity! |
