Wawota Weekly News
Earlier this fall a group of storefront business owners and home-based business owners gathered to plan some Christmas activities. A successful Christmas market was held at the Village Inn on Nov. 20. On the weekend of Nov. 27 and 28, there were hay rides and free Santa pictures. Dec. 2 featured hot dogs and hot chocolate served on the lot between Shear Edge and Front Porch. There was late night shopping, too. This was a great start to more activities in our community. The Wawota Public Library Book Club met at the Wawota Village on Dec. 9. They discussed the latest book, The Orchard, by Theresa Weir. It was a memoir and showed the dangers of the high amounts of spray used to control the codling moths that attacked the apple trees. Therese Lamontagne is now a resident of Moose Mountain Lodge at Carlyle. We wish her well in her new home. The Wawota Lions held their 53rd annual seniors’ supper Dec. 6. Seventy-seven seniors attended with several take-out meals. Six prizes were drawn for and the winners were Harold Holloway, Don Steinke, Bonnie Charles, Betty Wyatt, Irene Dorrance and Henry and Joan Fowler. It was a great evening appreciated by all. I had a nice chat with Janet Kessler from Kipling recently. She keeps in contact with the Burdens of Plattsville, Ont. In this year's Christmas letter word was received of Grace Burden's passing on Jan. 30 of this year. Karl Burden was the United Church minister in Wawota in the 1960s.
