Tabusintac Old Home Week
Saturday, July 31 to August 7, 2010


We are days away from the big event.  We have one meeting left, the tent goes up on Friday morning at 10 a.m. Many hands make light work so if you have a few spare moments that day we can use your help getting stuff ready.  


We need lots of volunteers. Extra help is needed at many events including Family Day, working the door at a dance, bar tending, helping out at breakfast or supper, etc. Please email tohw@tabusintac.org if you can help out.


Picnic Tables will be available for rent from Sunday to Friday of Old Home Week at the cost of $10 a table. The tables can be used by those selling crafts, showing their wares, those looking to Fundraise, etc.  Please see Sylvia Harding at 779-8144 to rent a table.


On the first and last Saturday the Tabusintac Country Market will be held at the tent. Tables can be rented from market manager Gail Savoy at 779-8045.

Secretary - Tanya McEachern
Treasurers - Clayton Kenny and Faye Ross

Tabusintac Old Home Week is a celebration and sharing of local heritage.
Plan to attend the first week of August 2010, "where all roads lead home".
Come and meet old friends in the early morning or at noon under the BIG TENT.  There are breakfasts each morning and three suppers. If you have a boat bring it along and check out one of the nicest Marinas around. Golf anyone? Bring your golf clubs for the planned golf tournament. Rafting anyone? This is another event everyone is talking about, so get your pens and paper out and start designing your raft so it can be built for the Raft Race.
