It was a Happy Canada Day for children and adults of all ages who came out to the Scotiabank garden party. Despite the weather, which forced the “Garden Party” to be held in the stadium, it still received great support from the people of our great community and visitors alike. It was a wonderful day of fun, food and socialization. A HUGE thank you to Manager, Lucy Jenkins and her employees of the Scotiabank, Twillingate Branch who have spent many weeks planning activities to make this event successful in a BIG way! Many of the day’s activities included; a fish pond, cake walk, PLINKO, dunk tank, barbecue hot dogs and hamburgers, popcorn and cotton candy booth, face painting, just to name a few. Also, thanks are being sent out to a number of people who helped the Scotiabank employees, these include, Ross Gambin the Manager of Twillingate Save Easy and his employees who provide the barbecue supplies and served during the day, Twillingate Lions and Leo clubs for running the popcorn and cotton candy booth and all individuals who donated cakes for the cake walk, and helped out with the activities, especially those who volunteered to be dunked into the cold water of the dunk tank. The grand total for the day’s event was $4445.00 but it still gets better, this money was matched through team Scotia community program becoming a fundraising event with a total of $8890.00. Awesome job everyone!
