Jonathan Luce Memorial dart tournament
GARDNER, MURRAY: A graveside service for Murray Gardner will take place on Saturday, June 1 at 1 p.m. at the North Hatley Reedsville Cemetery.

Parking lot in the back of the church.
On Saturday, April 6, the fourth annual Jonathan Luce Memorial dart tournament was held at the A.N.A.F. Unit 318, “The Hut.” There was also a silent auction. The proceeds from this day have been given back to our community. The beneficiaries of the proceeds are decided upon by Jonathan’s mom, Kathy Chapdelaine-lord. The first year we donated to The A.N.A.F. Unit #318 – Sewage and Water Fund. The second year we donated to the Wilson Street Softball League (kids aged 7 – 13). The third year the proceeds were given to 1st Lennoxville Scouts. This year we donated $2500 to The Frontier Animal Society.
We had a great turn out, with 126 dart players as well as many supporters. The winners of the dart tournament were Chris Main and Marie-claude Mercier.

Thank you to Debbie Chaplin for running the dart tournament.
And a huge thank you to all who participated in the tournaments and bought raffle tickets and supported our silent auction, because without you we could not have had such a huge success.
This day was to raise funds for a great organization, but most importantly it was to honour and remember a great guy, friend and relative who was taken from us way to soon. Gone, but never forgotten.
Thank you all for your support.
The organizing committee: Danny Luce, Peter Sarrasin and Nina Stubbert
