Editor, The Times:
Here are a couple of upcoming events in Blue River:
The first is the Annual Harvest Dinner on Sunday Oct. 20, 5 p.m. This event was hosted by the Blue River Ladies Hospital Auxiliary in the past. The Community Association took the event on as the Hospital Auxiliary had to disband. It is held at the Community Hall and all proceeds are put back into maintaining and improving the hall.
This year the dinner celebrates autumn with a traditional turkey dinner, with ham, halibut and salmon, and a potluck dessert table. The cost is $10 per person, $5 for ages six-15, and free for under six.
The second is the pre-Christmas Craft Fair on Sunday, Nov. 17, 11-4 at the Community Hall. We invite Valley craftspeople and artisans to showcase their work. Tables cost $10. Should you wish to book a table, please contact either Irene McNabb at 673-8398, Norma Heal at 673-8230 or blueriverca@gmail.com.
We hope people within the Valley see this as a central location, and invite them to attend and find that special something they have been looking for. There will be baked goods, and a concession.
