Our Night of Foolishness was a great success. The meal was spectacular and the company even better! We were treated to some amazing local musicians who entertained us for the evening. The silent auction was packed with really unique items and the bidding was a hot competition.Our performers included "The Highwood Hillbillies" with Florence Hummel, Barb Knox and Gerald Herriman, 15 year old Tanya McLaren, 15 year old Dallas Jade, surprise guest a very much alive , geriatric Janis Joplin and her partner "Slash". John Storch, Eva Levesque and Cody Follis, Kenny Peterson and Rich Tason. What a great celebration of our wonderful local artists in conjunction with Alberta ART Days! Thanks to all who played and all who watched , enjoyed and contributed to our profits which will be applied to our Playground Building fund. We made close to $3000 profit from our "Night of Foolishness". I have to add that many have requested we do this on a regular basis just for the fun of it and the chance to laugh and have fun with our neighbours! Great night, great food, great entertainment and great people!
