What a sight to behold in Melgund Township this Canada Day! Nearly 100 people from all over the area poured into the Dyment Recreation Hall complex, making it a truly vibrant community gathering. With musical performances by Country Twist, featuring the talents of Gerry McArthur, Tanya McArthur, and Maurice Betournay, there was a fantastic atmosphere for everyone. From families with kids to older folks, everyone came out to celebrate, filling the hall and grounds with laughter, chatter, and a real sense of togetherness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was clear that the community was eager to celebrate, and the crowd certainly brought the energy. You could see folks catching up, making new friends, and just enjoying the good vibes and the lively tunes from Country Twist. The large turnout really showed how much Melgund Township values these opportunities to come together and celebrate what makes their community so special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
