Easter Bonnet beauties
The Blairmore Legion held their annual Easter Bonnet parade on Wednesday, March 16. This easter tradition has been taking place for over 20 years at the legion. Hayley Strandquist, owner of the Rose Peddler, provided flowers for door prizes along with Copy Magic who gave away a prize package. Attending the event were members of the York Creek Lodge, Long Term Care and interested citizens. The legion provided a free lunch and were entertained by ‘Playing Country’. Pictured above is Penny Sinclair, left, and winner Elsie Scow, right.
