Ability Bowl 25… a “striking” success!

Okay, so here’s the scoop on our Ability Bowl team. All together we had over 300 people, or businesses, donate to this fabulous cause. We wore our costumes; we bowled (well I didn’t, and that’s a story for another day… thanks Don for bowling for me); went for a drink and superb appetizers, mixed in with a few laughs, at Uncle Bob’s Creekside Bar and Grill; we went to the supper, ate (again); laughed some...

The value of silver.

I guess when it comes to precious metals, gold is more valuable than silver. But when it comes to the Ability Bowl, silver is the most valuable of all! That’s because this year is the Silver Anniversary (25th) of the Saskatchewan Abilities Council Ability Bowl.  The big event takes place on April 27th, here at Frontier Bowling Lanes, in Swift Current. Once again Team Signs ‘n Such will be dressing up (perhaps silly), and...

It’s about time!

Just before our “Open House of Fun”, in honour of our 25th Anniversary, we actually installed our new monument sign.  I know… it’s about time!  Well, as the sayings go, the plumber’s house always has the leaky faucet, the shoemaker’s kids always need new shoes, and the accountant’s wife is the last person to get her income tax return filed (right Andrea?).  Well, it took us long enough to make...

Oh what fun we had!

Wow!  Thursday September 16th was our “Open House of Fun” and oh what fun we had!  Our carnival booths were a gigantic hit, along with the hotdogs, popcorn, and cake.  It just doesn’t get any better.  Thanks to all of you who were able to come be a part of the fun; for the donations to the Swift Current SPCA; the cards; the flowers; the gifts.  A special thank you to “Dottie the Clown”.  What a fantastic...

Hotdogs, popcorn, games of skill…

Well folks, our “Open House of  Fun” is fast approaching.  Thursday September 16th promises to be a day filled with fun and surprises.  For the low, low price of a toonie you’ll get a hotdog with all the trimmings and a soft drink or coffee.  Another $1 gets you some popcorn.  All of the proceeds from this will go to the Swift Current SPCA.  In addition to food and drink, you’ll have the opportunity to try your...

What exactly is a “Such”?

Well, if I had a dollar for every time I was asked that question, I probably could have retired by now, and spend all of my remaining time enjoying life, reading review of casino luck, or even focusing most of my time in sports!  Any definitions of the word “such”, according to Webster, Oxford or Wikipedia are, quite frankly, boring.  There’s meanings for the word based on it being a pronoun, an adverb, an...
