A Full House for Country Twist!

What a day at the Dyment Recreation Hall! Country Twist, featuring the talented Gerry McArthur, Tanya McArthur, and Maurice Betournay, truly rocked the house today, playing to a full audience that was ready to celebrate. With dancing, a constant stream of lively tunes, and so many other activities happening around the complex, it was truly a fantastic Canada Day for everyone who came out.

A massive thank you goes out to the Local Services Board of Melgund for their incredible support in making such a vibrant and fun event possible. Their dedication to the community shone through, creating a day packed with good times and neighbourly cheer. It’s events like these that truly bring Melgund Township to life!
