We want to take a moment to thank everyone that came out to the Comedy Night last week in support of our local foundation.

Great people, great food, and for a great cause. Thanks to Matt Falk, the comedian, for a hilarious evening.

We raised over $10,000 for the Onanole Foundation and local charities. We also presented a cheque to the Onanole & District Recreation Centre for $10,000 from the Thomas Sill Foundation to be used towards putting on more Community Events for all ages such as Trivia Nights, Jets Game/Grey Cup Viewing Parties, Art Nights, Movie Days, Jam nights, etc.

What is an event or program that you'd like to see in Onanole?
