Canada Day Birthday Campout 2011

Another successful Fireflies campout has come and gone. Thankfully we had mostly nice weather with only a few sprinkles of rain. It did not daunt our golfers who were sheltered by the tree lined mini-golf course. 

 Again we were entertained during our hospitality evening  by a great group of guys-pictures attached and most everyone stayed till the end to chat and listen to the music. We celebrated Canada in grand style with  red and white themed decor in the hall and lots of red shirts and hats.

To everyone who came out to our annual campout, we give a big THANK YOU and hope that next year will be even better, though how to improve on the guys, Home Made To Order Breakfast is beyond me!

Our Night at Grand River Raceway

The Fireflies enjoyed a night at the races on Thanksgiving evening in October when 24 of us met at the lovely half mile track in Elora, Ontario. We had a terrific buffet including turkey and stuffing, ham and scalloped potatoes; a race named in our honour; the opportunity to participte in a cheerleading competition during the 6th race; programs and  a hostess to take our bets and return our winnings (at least for some) right to our table. And all this for a modest sum of about $12.50 each including the taxes. Wow, what a deal.  Ten of us even got to go down and have our picture taken with the winning horse in the Georgetown Fireflies race.  It was an event we highly recommend when the horses come back to Grand River Raceway for their next racing meet.
