Youth centre wins gingerbread house

If you stopped by at the Snug Cove General Store just before Christmas, you might have been amazed to see a meter-long gingerbread replica of Tir-na-nOg Theatre School, all done up with sugar plums and frosting.

If you stopped by at the Snug Cove General Store just before Christmas, you might have been amazed to see a meter-long gingerbread replica of Tir-na-nOg Theatre School, all done up with sugar plums and frosting. It was quite a sight to see and it still is for the moment. The winning ticket was made out to the Bowen Youth Centre by an anonymous buyer. The demolition/feast is set to take place at the youth centre, 650 Carter Road, on Friday, January 13, at 4 p.m. Young people aged 12 to 18 are invited to dig in.

Tir-na-nOg Theatre School would like to thank all of those who helped with the Christmas gingerbread raffle starting with the creator of the gingerbread extravaganza, Tim Rhodes. Tir-na-nOg never looked so good. Thanks also to Michelle Gibson who contributed the spa basket that was drawn at the same time and won by Caitlin Frost. Heartfelt appreciation goes to all the generous ticket purchasers who helped Tir-na-nOg raise just over $1000 in the week leading up to the draw.
