Matlock Cookbooks and Artful Bras. What more could you want?

Things are moving along nicely with the new season and plans are well underway for all this year's exciting events.

Our new cookbook will be ready for purchase at the July 1st celebrations at Matlock Community Hall. The price will be $10 each and they will make great gifts -- for yourself, your friends and your loved ones.

Tickets are going fast for the Sisters of the Holy Rock. If you don't already have your tickets, call Darlene at 389-3593 or Ann at 389-5611 now to avoid disappointment.

Are you utterly creative? If so, contact Betty Jackson at 389-5682 or click on the link for the Dunnottar Station to learn more about the local "Artful Bra 2009" promotion that she is coordinating in order to raise funds for NE Palliative Care in Gimli.

We are so fortunate in this community to have so many creative people working together to make this a better place. Hats off to Betty for leading the Artful Bra event in our area. It's going to be a hoot. Viewing and voting for your favourite dolled-up bra will take place at the Ponemah Beach Central Art Centre at 27 Central Avenue in Ponemah, August 1st through September 12th.

Check out this link to see an example of some of the bras that have been made for "Artfull Bras" shows elsewhere.  http://www.quiltersofsc.org/artfullbras/artfullbras.htm

Matlock loses a wonderfully warm resident

It is with sadness that we say goodbye to Marjorie (Marj, Margie) Meisner, who passed away suddenly in her home on Monday, March 27, 2017. Marjorie will be missed by husband Ron, and everyone who knew her. She always had a smile for everyone she encountered. Marjorie (on the right) playing the ukulele. Marjorie is best known for her musical talents. She loved to sing, and played the guitar, the tin whistle, and the ukulele--probably others, as Marjorie's life was greatly enhanced by her musical connections.

Marjorie loved to gather with friends and was a member of the informal music group that meets at the Matlock Rec Club. Do give Ron Meisner a hug when you see him.
