Sept 26th was a vert great day in our community , we had a great day and nearly 300 men , women and children showed up. The weather was cold but the spirit was warm and at the end of the day you people made our town a better place. Here are a couple of pics from Captured Memories Studios courtsey of Amy Fuery.

Thanks to " First Pitch " for the grant that we received this year. We brought softball equipment for the kids and did some major repairs to the ball field.

Building
Community Project-----Spring 2010
Pending approval from all governing bodies the Avondale Recreation will be building a building to compliment the ballfield and playground area. The building will have much needed washroom facilities and a source of electricity and water for outdoor events.
There will not be a massive fundraising campaign like last year but we will need some skilled labor if you have some to offer.
Below is a preliminary pic of the building. More details to follow.
