If you have any questions feel free to drop them and we will make a list and forward to our councillors. Obviously we don’t really have the answers either.

We had to make a really tough decision today! We had to call our movie off this evening due to weather. Sadly it looks still as though we have rain tonight. We apologize for those that wanted to come.
