COUNCILLOR HUME ATTENDS THE AVCA PICNIC

The Billings Estate Museum
This past Sunday, June 10th, Councillor Hume and his team helped out at the annual fun-filled AVCA Picnic at the Billings Estate. The picnic is a community tradition, offering horse & wagon rides, bouncy castles, Ray's Reptiles, face painting, and even free Timbits and coffee supplied by Rogers. The Fiddleheads music group played under the big white tent, and Enbridge Gas helped to prepare tons of fantatic jumbo hotdogs.

The Hume Team was there with some great summer swag: the groovy new Hume water bottles, and plantable seed cards that sprout into wildflowers. Kids loved the magic of the seed paper, and all ages were delighted with their swanky new water bottles. Councillor Hume walked around the picnic and chatted with locals; he even brought Mayor Watson along for the chat.

With the exception of eating way too many sno-cones, the Hume Team had a great day. Peter is a long-time supporter of the AVCA picnic, and this year was happy to provide brand new signage for the association. All-in-all, it was a great day of music, munchies, and family time!

Let's look at some photos!

Firefighters were on site; we gave them waterbottles and lots of thanks!


Tiny people were everywhere, and they loved the seed-growing cards!
