The Grand Tappattoo Resort’s lovely air conditioned facility and buffet dinner were much appreciated during a fun filled OLRA BBQ on Aug. 6th. The event raised $670 for OLRA’s lake stewardship initiatives (eDNA sampling to detect biodiversity, benthos and water quality monitoring). Thank you very much to all the generous (mostly local) vendors who donated a wide variety of raffle prizes and to those who entered!
Everyone learned something in the OLRA Lake Trivia contest with the winning team (Mario and Bev Buszynski, Barbara and Stu Beecroft, Tony and Margaret Buszynski, and Deb, Jeff and Megan Smith) receiving Otter Lake mugs as prizes. Congrats!!
As well, Christopher Whitman brought a variety of his unique wooden flag creations for sale and to seed ideas for custom orders.
Many thanks go to Susan Shackleton, Sales Manager at Stirling Hotels Canada and the team at the Grand Tappattoo Resort for hosting us. We are lucky to have such a facility on our lake!
Thanks also go to all the OLRA volunteers who made this event such a success: Gerry Doyle, Marty Chepesiuk, Denise Exler, AJ Mueller, Rob Cribbie, Brad Chittick and Kerry Mueller.
