Did you hear the clapping on Sunday coming from around the Building Fund Thermometer at the New Lowell United church?

Well, here is the wonderful news.

The congregation applied for a federal government grant through the Enabling Accessibility Fund and MP Kellie Leitch was at the church on Sunday to tell the congregation that they have been awarded $50,000. That was the joyous clapping that you heard. This will enable the church to continue on their quest to raise the funds to make their building accessible to all.

They are also having some musical evenings at the New Lowell Legion. This Saturday, June 1 at 7 p.m., Anthony Von, the Elvis Tribute Artist, will perform with is band.

He is the Canadian Champion and came second in the competition in Memphis. The tickets are $35 each, which includes the concert, light lunch and an evening of song, dance and good fun. There will be a cash bar. If you haven’t got your ticket yet call Marilyn at 424-1034 as soon as possible.

The New Lowell Wednesday Night Market has started. The market opens at 6 p.m. There is a great selection of homemade goods, plants and an open snack bar. Come and enjoy a chat with neighbors or friends.

Do you love good home cooking? Well order the New Lowell Public School’s Cookbook. It has over 100 recipes from the school families. All are tried and true. The cost is $10. To order call Helena at 424-6086.

The school wishes to thank all those that donated to their Metal Waste collection and Car Wash on Saturday.

Also on Saturday a huge thanks to everyone that supported the Yard/Bake Sale and Heritage Tea at the New Lowell United church. There were some great deals at the yard sale and yummy baking inside the church.

Happy special birthday this week to the New Lowell United Church web manager. By the way check out this lady’s work here.
