Update on Cody Anthony & Team Canada - in Argentina

Mon Nov 12, 12:06 PM

Our own Cody Anthony was chosen as one of the two Team Captains for Team Canada. 

In their second playoff game on Saturday Team Canada was able to defeat the US Team.  They had had a lengthy rain delay so right after that game they had to play again - this time it was Australlia and they lost a tough battle 3 - 2.  The winner of that game was guaranteed at least a bronze medal.  So our Canadian boys ended up with a 4th place finish in the World Championships.  Cody's mom Terry said "This Team made Canada very proud this week and I am very proud that my family could be part of it".  "I also want to say how proud we are of Cody".

We too would like to say how proud Shubie is of Cody Anthony and the whole Team Canada.  What a great showing in this prestigious event in Argentina.

“Lest We Forget”

Sun Nov 11, 12:29 PM

Today is Remberance Day - the special day each year we remember those that have fought for the freedoms we enjoy.  It is the day where we stop to honour our fallen soldiers and our troops in service.  Shubenacadie will gather at the Cenotaph for a service.  It is a warming ceromony as an honour guard marches through the Village, the crowd gathers to sing, pray, hear the traditional "In Flanders Field".  The two minutes of silence is special as our thoughts and prayers go to those in the past and present.  The laying of wreaths - it is great to see so many families, groups and businesses step up to be part of this.

Then at the end everyone in the crowd brings their poppy up and pin them on a wreath... a see of red poppies soon appears.

Thank you to all who help to put on this special event.
