I belong to the Pink Scrappers Relay for Life Team and will be walking in the St. Thomas ON Relay for Life on June 7th. 

Why do I participate in the St. Thomas Relay for Life?

The Relay for Life is fun. The Relay is a way to honour those who have fought the battle against cancer . . . win or lose. It is a joyous occasion. The Relay is a great fundraiser that allows the whole community to step up. It is a chance to cry and remember. The Relay is a chance to play dress up and stay out all night and pretend I'm not an old grandma. I know the money raised brings us one step closer to defeating this horrible disease. The Relay make me feel hopeful. The Relay is a way to make a difference.

If you would like to make a difference and support the Relay for life you can:
1. make a donation to a participant (like me) in person or online,
2. join a Relay team or form a new team,
3. share your message about why you support the Relay for Life
4. purchase a luminary

The Pink Scrappers have two main fundraisers: our all day scrapbooking crop on April 20th and our yard, bake and book sale on May 11.

We would really appreciate your donations and support for these events.

Before chowing down on these little springtime delicacies, there’s a few things you should know first since fiddleheads can cause food poisoning if they’re not cooked properly. What are fiddleheads? These tightly curled coils are ostrich fern fronds. They start appearing in late April and early May in Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick and are usually found in forests, marshes and by rivers and streams.
