By Natasha Tersigni Santa Claus, his mer- ry elves and Woodlands School students and staff tied up their running shoes, pulled on their boots and took part in the 2nd annual Holly Jolly Jog held on Dec. 7. The event is a fundraiser for the Stonewall and Dis- trict Christmas Cheer Board and each of the 112 student runners donated a non-per- ishable food item or toy. The three-kilometres run is not only a great holiday fund- raiser but promotes physi- cal activity. “I started it as a way to keep the kids active as the weather turns cold and show them that running can be a year-round activity. It is also a great way to involve the students in a charitable activity,” said run organizer TRIBUNE PHOTO BY NATASHA TERSIGNI Woodlands School kindergarten students were excited to run with Santa Claus for the school’s 2nd annual Holly Jolly Continued on page 3 Jog.

Last week, Grosse Isle and Rosser school volunteers, friends and neighbours helped deLaroque collect and pack 110 food hampers, two pallets of toys and a pallet of turkey, ham, meatballs and perogies for a community dinner planned for Dec. 23. The collection and dinner is the most recent initiative of Danica’s Village. Churchill has a special place in deLaroque’s heart. After she lost her fi ve-year-old daughter Danica in a canoeing accident in Churchill last summer, the community rallied around her family.

The musical was the story of the faith of a family, and was very comical with the reenactment of radio broadcasts by George and Shelley Matheson, Ray Steen and Leonard Oracheski. The cast of 11, in addition to the 40-person choir, six-person combo, and the solos by Blair Malezdrewich, Mark Olson, Kathryn Baldwin and Kris Debreuil brought the audience to their feet for the fi nale as they have done year over year. Most of the action took place in the main characters’ home, with the choir providing music and drama as it is broadcast over the family radio. The music highlighted the sounds of the ‘40s, including swing, lush bal- lads, and big band songs Original music mixed with familiar Christmas favorites including I’ll be Home for Christmas, O Holy Night, Hark the Herald Angels Sing, O Little Town of Bethlehem, and I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day.
