Home Coming 2011
Williamsford & Area Community Homecoming 2011 was held July 29th and 30th at the New Williamsford Community Centre. It was a big undertaking and Community effort. Thanks to Frank and Helen Beirnes who organized the week-end.

There was a lot of activities including musical entertainment, a dunking machine, face painting, Oops the clown, and old movies in the afternoon. "The Evening Curlers" headed by Ian and Delmer Eriksen organized the food tent. "The Community Centre Board" headed by Ian Eriksen and Moe Batterman looked after the bars at the beer tent and at the dance.
Saturday night Helen and Frank Beirnes spearheaded the dance featuring the band "Stir It Up". One hundred and seventy eight enjoyed new & old country and rock & roll.
