We have a great Grad class this year, full of loggers and numerous trucks, so we’ll have your firewood to you in no time!
You pick up: $50 for a short box, or $65 for a long box
Delivered: $75
This will take place from 8:30 am -12 noon at the shake mill. If you are picking up, the shake mill is located down by the marina (right across the road from the boat launch) and is the farthest gate to the right. (Look for tired teenagers and Moms with coffee.)

Registrations are still being accepted for the season! It’s carnival year so that means more fun for your children!
Canskate is the first stages of skating where your child will learn key elements to get them comfortable on the ice. As these elements are learned and your child improves, there is opportunity to move up into Starskate, Competitions, Dance and Dryland Training.
It’s great fitness and a lot of fun!
Help is always needed especially this year as we prepare props, costumes and routines for our carnival. If you are interested in registering your child or you would like to help out with carnival preparations please contact Anita Lawrence at 283-2263 or Dawn Pitt at 283-7573.
The Bottle Drive was a great success with all hockey players and skaters coming out to lend a hand. Thanks Gold River for all your help and contributions!
Our annual Magazine Drive is underway so if you would like to support the club and take out a magazine subscription you can contact Anita or Dawn as well.
The skaters will be selling chocolates & almonds very soon door to door so have your twoonies ready!
