If you have recyclables that have accumulated over Christmas, DeCoste Recyclables will be pleased to receive them. If you would like to assist Chedabucto CC with the proceeds from the sale of your recyclables, Chedabucto CC will be pleased to receive it.

If you decide to assist Chedabucto CC please inform Elsworth so he can record the amount and get your signature for confirmation. The Club collects the donated proceeds at the end of each month and always appreciates whatever amounts that have been donated.

Weather permitting, DeCoste Recyclables plan to be at the Guysborough Legion’s parking lot this Saturday, January 11, from 10:00 AM until 2:00 PM.

We are pleased to announce the additions of three new Associate (Social) members to the Chedabucto Curling Club Community Activity Society (CAS). They are Jean Fisher, Myles MacPherson and Laura Doyle. Should you know of others who might consider joining CAS under its Associate membership classification, please invite them to apply. The dues for Social membership is only $25.00 (tax included) per  year.

Associate (Social) members are described within the following excerpt from the CAS by-laws:  “Clause 2 – Membership(B)   6. Associate Members shall be persons 19 years of age or older subject to regular approval provisions who may attend the Club activities.  Associate (Social) members shall not have voting or curling privileges.”

Congratulations to Pearl Grant, Manchester, for being the December 20 winner of CAS’s 50/50 draw. Pearl’s winning ticket was worth $224.00. (Thanks to all who bought tickets – and to those involved in the selling of the 50/50 tickets.)

If you wish to purchase or to sell tickets: contact a club member, come to the club, or buy tickets at Days Gone By Bakery & Restaurant; Cutting Loose Hair Design & Tanning; Guysborough Pharmacy; Gerard Hart’s Grocery Store; Cook’s Gas Bar & Robin’s; Chedabucto Home Hardware or Guysborough Discount & Gifts. CAS sincerely thanks the before-mentioned businesses for their continued support. (The businesses’ sold-tickets are collected mid-afternoons on Fridays.)

With the wish to have a larger draw, CAS will occasionally be drawing at the usual 8:00 PM on Fridays but will be occasionally doing the draws after a couple weeks of selling. Refer to our website for updates on draws and the names of winners. www.chedabuctocc.ca

From my home to yours: the very best of Holiday wishes and for good health in 2014.

I am pleased to inform you that Joe Jamieson has agreed to be one of our Club’s Junior League coaches. Joe and Shawna Cody will be working with the youngsters to pass on their skills and enjoyment of the sport.

This week, and for the next three, in the Guysborough Journal there will be Junior Curling information within the “Community Calendar” section as well as notices going to homes this week via the school.

Thank you to the MODG Recreation Department for their assistance to distribute the Club’s notices. The school is also acknowledged for distributing the notices in addition to agreeing to include the curling registration date for January 6 within its Monday Flash (also January 6).

Please spread the good news about the Junior Curling; if you know of anyone who might enjoy joining the league give them your encouragement. Should a family need financial assistance to join there is assistance available via the MODG Recreation Department (Christina Connolly).

More Junior Curling information can be found on the club’s website:  www.chedabuctocc.ca .

Cheers 🙂
