Dara Smith MacDonald was our fiddler and did a fine job as always. Dara has played at all of our Thursday evening ceilidhs since they began in 2007!

Dara brought Marcellin Chaisson along to accompany her on guitar. Lots of people were happy to see Marcellin as they remembered him well from his days working at the Port Hood Court House.

And we had the always entertaining Boys from the Hood with us – Edgar Cormier, Sandy Gillis and Gerard Walker. It is always a treat to hear them perform!

Glenda Campbell, a longtime friend and supporter of the Chestico Museum was in attendance and celebrating a birthday so all our performers joined in performing “Happy Birthday” to her.
