The Borden Friendship Club held their monthly potluck supper and program June 29, in the Borden Community Centre with just over 40 out to enjoy the meal and sing Happy Birthday to June celebrants – Florence Neufeld, Anne Palmer, Dianne Winter, Ruben Rempel, Mel Brooke, Sandy Long, Elaine Gunsch, Mary Hunchak and John Petrun.

President Ed Neufeld welcomed everyone, gave the blessing and after everyone enjoyed the meal and birthday cake, Ed introduced Terry Pugh of Saskatoon who entertained for the evening. Terry played the guitar, sometimes the harmonica and sang for several songs, one in French, then switched to his accordion for some old favourites. Terry also told many jokes interspersed with his playing and singing, and then he switched back to guitar and harmonica for some older western and gospel songs including The Old Rugged Cross.  

The next Friendship Club potluck supper is July 27 at the acreage of Ed and Dianne Rawlyk at 5:45 p.m. The club pays for the burgers, hot dogs, buns and dessert and members bring salads.
