World Tuna Flat Championships

The annual World Tuna Flat Championships were held today in Hubbards. I and the rest of the 'Da Babes' team: Sarah Archer, Gail Dominey & Joanne MacDonald were there to defend our Women's World Tuna Flat Champions title which we won last year. Competition was stiff this year as was the breeze. After winning 2 heats we were in the final against team 10271. They jumped to an early lead that we just weren't able to overcome. But it was a great time! Congratulations to team 10271.

Big Ex Parade

Tuesday, July 23rd was the annual Big Ex Parade in Bridgewater. Progressive Conservative Party leader Jamie Baillie led candidates and supporters in the parade. I was joined by fellow candidates David Mitchell, Lunenburg West, Brian Pickings, Lunenburg and Bruce Inglis, Queens/Shelburne. Despite heavy rain participants and spectators turned out to make the parade a resounding success. It is a testament to the spirit of the South Shore. Well done!

Mackerel Snappers Picnic

Suncreen, sunhats and sunbrellas were in order as perfect weather accompanied the annual Mackerel Snappers Picnic at Graves Island near Chester. People come from close by and far away to listen to good music, enjoy a mackerel supper, and meet old friends. It's a great opportunity for me to talk to people and enjoy the day with them.
