PHIL JENKINS Celebrates The Gatineau River Poetry, Songs & Stories SAT, NOVEMBER 10, 9PM

Howdy Everyone!! Come on out November 10th, Next Saturday Evening starting at 9PM for an evening of poetry and song celebrating the Gatineau River, and rivers in general. There are a lot of local songs out there about the river; Phil Jenkins has three and I think just about every local musician has one - and there is a fair bit of poetry about rivers. Phil has a collection of haiku from when he used to write a column for the Lowdown written by local people and several of them are about the river, and of course the river is flowing right past Cafe Le Hibou, so what better place to have a real celebration of our beautiful river. There hasn't been a real party on the River Road in Wakefield since they cancelled the sewage treatment plant, so come on out and bring a story, song, haiku or poem about the river or about rivers in general and their importance to society.

So, a one-night Riverceleb, bring along a poem, a haiku, whatever you like, or a river song, and people can contact Phil beforehand if you want to sing a song and need accompaniment at 819-827-1638. WE can even set up a screen and people can bring in their pictures of the river. This will be a great community event!! Come on out and show your support for this fantastic community!!

Cost will be whatever you can afford. Hopefully around $5 if that is possible.

Thanks a lot everyone!! Hope to see you here!!
