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!!
