Great Walk Thank You

I would like to thank the amazing volunteers from Gold River that helped make this years Great Walk possible. We could not have done it without your support. Good things happen when both communities work together. Hope you all had fun.

If you have any comments or ideas to make it better I would love to hear back from you.

See you next year!

Gold River Food Bank Thanks You

via Rob Hoffman

Thanks, Gold River, for your continued generosity. I am no longer surprised but again proud of our community. Thanks to you, this past year we have been able to assist everyone who has come for a little help in their time of need. If you have ever been in such need (as I have been myself) you know what that “little bit of help” can mean. We want to thank Brad Unger and SuperValu for working with us so closely all year long, as well as the many community and school groups who help supply the bank, often in very creative ways (if you would like to know how a pizza can be turned into a can of veggies for the bank ask Mr. Levering at GRSS sometime). And naturally I want to thank Heather Warwick, who for many, is the face of the Food Bank. She works tirelessly to make things work. Thank you Heather.

At this point in time, even following the Christmas Hamper distribution, your bank has food on the shelves and some money in the (other kind of) bank. Thus, as usual, there are no planned food drives in the near future, but your regular till tape and food donations are always welcomed. Your help is appreciated by those you have helped – nameless though they be.

And never forget, if you have even a small need for food assistance, or know someone who does, please contact myself or Heather. There’s help, and it’s confidential.

Thank you all and Merry Christmas everyone! God bless! Happy New Year!

Thank You From Northgate Church

Northgate Church recently hosted a week long children’s program but we didn’t do it alone, and we want our community to recognize just how much we appreciate them!

First, we’d like to thank our Fields Store for all the wonderful prizes that they donated for the kids on our final day. THANK YOU! Then we’d like to thank the Legion for their kind donation of the popcorn and cotton candy machines – along with the supplies to make them! What a generous donation! THANK YOU! We’d also like to mention, the willingness of our village workers who emptied our garbage bin BEFORE our event started on Monday so that we could “play” at the back of the church without incident. THANK YOU!

And finally, a huge THANK YOU to everyone in our plaza; merchants and villagers, who kindly put up with VERY excited children all week. We are blessed to be a part of such a wonderful community. Northgate Church Gold River

Via the GR Tourist Info Centre;

The other day I had a couple walk into the info centre and they wanted me to pass on a message for the community to see. I guess they went into Super Valu and the cashier Michele did something so nice that they wanted her to be recognized. They wouldn’t tell me what she did, but it was something that they were very thankful for.

So Michele, please know that your random act of kindness was appreciated so much by these tourists.
