From
Angie Pickering:
They came by
boat, car and by foot. With the power returning to the Lake just
in time, over 70 players and fans participated in the Wollaston
Lake Horseshoe Tournament. The weather was perfect again,
for the third year. This widely diverse group, with
ages ranging from teenagers, to seniors, with a whole lot more
in between, spent the day watching, laughing, and catching
up on news from new and old friends. A hip of beef on a split
was complimented with salads and sides fed the crowd after the
finals were decided.
Men's
Championship team included Steve Pope and Tom Evans.
Ladies
Championship team included Donna Middleton and Sara Ashwood.
A big thank you for all that contributed to the dinner.
From
WLHCA Executive:
We would like to
thank Angie and Tedd Pickering and their helpers for another
great association social event.
2006 Take a Kid Fishing Derby
(Click to enlarge picture)
On July 8th,
Bronwyn Sage, with help from Peggy Stewart and Bev Meyers
from Island View Campgrounds welcomed many youngsters
bringing their fish to be weighed at the Annual WLHCA
Take a Kid Fishing Derby. Bronwyn has been responsible
for convening this day for many years and her
expert organization and efforts are really
appreciated. For many youngsters, this is their first chance
to taste the excitement of reeling in their first catch. For
others, its the lure of catching the "Big One".
Bronwyn added the following about the
day: "The Derby was
successful because of the parents and grandparents who made
time to take their children and grandchildren fishing,, a
great investment for future fishing excursions when these
same kids will be taking them fishing."
The results of the Derby were:
CHILDREN 5 AND UNDER
Ist - Luke LaPalm with a 1 ib. rock bass

2006 Children's Fun Day
(Looking for Pictures!)
WLHCA would like
to thank Victoria Pusiak for organizing and running Children's
Fun Day. Over thirty children enjoyed a very active
and laughter filled day on July 22nd at the beach at
Island View. Upon arrival participants registered with Peggy
Stewart and then were split into age-grouped teams.
Volunteers Becky
Benaissa, Liz Lee, Jennifer Campbell and Sue Bland helped
with leading the teams through very entertaining tasks as
they competed to see who could fill up leaky pop bottles and
pour the contents into a pail most quickly, throw water
filled balloons at opposing teams, dress in a baggy set of
clothes then swim/walk to the floating dock, take off the
clothes and leave them for the next person in the team, a three
legged race, fish pond, face painting and to top it all off a
jelly and whipped cream eating contest. The morning was
topped off with a BBQ lunch of hot dogs and drinks prepared by
Steve Pusiak, and Mike Bland , assisted by Ben Benaissa.
Each child
went home happy with a prize of their choosing tucked under
their arm and a smile on their face.
A big thank
you again to Bev and Bill Meyers who were wonderful
providing the beach, the BBQ, a place to fill water
balloons, and many items that were needed at the last
minute.
