The Atlin Whisper “Never doubt that a small group of committed citizens can change the world.”

Margaret Mead

CANADA DAY HERE WE COME!!!!!

Thanks to all who organized, participated and watched!!!!!

GREAT PARADE!

“Smiles�

How do you feel when a fiddle hums And makes you sway all over?

Does the music warm your heart With hope like a four-leaf clover?

When apple blossoms float on air Does enchantment define your day?

When sunshine sparkles all around Will you greet the world with smiles?

How do you feel when a fiddle hums And makes you sway all over?

Does the music warm your heart With hope like a four-leaf clover?
