The following is an update from Susan Radecki :
This is what I know so far about the event at Picton United Church on Sun. Sept. 14th. We have a granny named Sue Cousineau from the Ottawa area . She can stay with me the night before. She will speak during the church service for 15 min. Then the ladies (and perhaps men) of the church will provide a lunch.
After the lunch we will take over. We can have the sanctuary for free. I will ask the Bay of Quinte Sweet Adelines to sing and I should know on Mon. night about that. I also belong to the county drumming circle if you want to ask them to perform. We were also thinking that Sue Cousineau should be given another opportunity to speak at this time , and perhaps Wilma as well .
All suggestions are welcome.
