Our community is also invited to participate in the World Acadian Congress planned for August 2009.  The plan is to have all communities in the Acadian Peninsula participate with activities that highlight the Peninsula’s beauty, innovation, talent and hidden treasures.  In support of this we invite all groups, organizations and interested individuals to attend our next Local Service District meeting to be held on Monday, August 6th at 7 pm.

 

The meeting will discuss what interest, opportunities and involvement you wish to participate in with this exposure to a world congress.

         Special Cancer Society Campaign

 

This fall,in September and October 2007,the Tabusintac region will be

visited  by your neighbors seeking donations for a particular fund-raising

 effort.The  money collected on behalf of The Canadian Cancer Society will

go toward assisting families in our area with expenses associated with cancer treatments.

 

To accomplish this important endeavor, volunteers are needed; an example of

an area to cover would be Grattan Road, and so on. William Blake will be happy

 to accept your names--the more the better!--and I can then pass out the kits

you will need(reciept books, etc.).

 

Please look for more information on this campaign,which is also being

organized for the Tracadie, Brantville, Neguac and Lagaceville areas.

I will be posting notices in the community where possible, as well as in

 the Church Bulletins, with updates in The Tabby Tattler as needed.

 

Please help us make this campaign a success!

 

To reach William Blake,call:779-1995      Thank You   Rachel Breau

RECIPE OF THE MONTH

 

Basic Strawberry Smoothie Recipe

This is the simplest strawberry smoothie recipe I use. It takes less than 5 minutes to create a wonderful smoothie dessert for your guests.

The basic recipe is for 4 servings, just double or split in half to get either two or 8 servings of this delightful stawberry smoothie.

 

Ingredients:                                              

- 2 cups milk
- 2 cups ice cream
- 2 cups strawberries
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Directions:

Pour all ingredients in blender except the sugar. When the smoothie is smooth, (I like that expression!) taste it and add sugar according to your taste. Pour into glasses and serve immediately.

If you don't have lemon juice, don't despair. The strawberry smoothie will taste exceptionally even without it.

Sugar?

The sugar is always a point of discussion: With sugar or without? If yes, how much?

Tip: It's always better to have too little sugar than too much. This way your guests can add sugar if they want to.

Hello to All!

 

Hope everyone is getting out and enjoying the nice days that we do have or in between all the rain showers we have been receiving.  Remember that within our watershed that there are a lot of activities that we do from exploring our biota to enjoying a picnic along our rivers or many tributaries.

 

Once again this year we will be doing our Community Aquatic Monitoring Program (CAMP) and would appreciate any volunteers.  If anyone is interested in attending or to receive more information about the program you may call 779-1185 or drop in at the TWA office.  Our next sampling date is FRIDAY, JULY 27TH, 2007. 

 

The CAMP program is conducted in partnership with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO). The guiding principle of CAMP is to involve community groups, such as the TWA, in monitoring the health of local estuaries within the southern Gulf of St Lawrence region. The CAMP program itself involves monthly beach seining, from May to September, at six different sites in the estuary.  At each site, we collect, count and identify fish and crustaceans.  Water quality data and aquatic vegetation is also monitored. The CAMP program is important to the TWA because it allows us to directly monitor the health of the Tabusintac Bay.

A little Humor

KNOCK ON WOOD

Three sisters ages 72, 74, and 76 live in a house together. One night the

76 year old draws a bath. She puts her foot in and pauses.

She yells down the stairs "was I getting in or out of the bath?".

The 74 year old yells back "I don't know. I'll come up and see."

She starts up the stairs and pauses. Then she yells "was I going up

 the stairs or down?"

The 72 year old is sitting at the kitchen table having tea listening to her sisters.

 She shakes her head and says "I sure hope I never get that forgetful."

She knocks on wood for good measure. She then yells "I'll come up and

 help both of you as soon as I see who's at the door".

 

Tabusintac Centennial Memorial Library and Museum

The committee wish to thank everyone who supported us at our Annual Strawberry Tea on July 12. Funds raised go towards the ongoing maintenance of the building. We are in the process of installing new flooring in the museum and upgrading some of the lighting.

We encourage all community residents to visit the museum and have a look around. You might be surprised at what you will find there.

The committee will be at the Tabusintac Country Market on July 28 serving up plain or blueberry pancakes and sausage. We hope to see you there.
