Aware-OscarAward — Fort Saskatchewan-Vegreville MLA Jacquie Fenske (left) attended the awareness dinner at the Tofield Community Hall Saturday and, to her surprise and delight, was awarded an honourary Oscar replica from Busy B organizer Yvonne Brown. Fenske had just complimented the volunteers at Busy B for their creativitiy in finding ways to recycle items that help others, which she said was better than an Oscar winning performance.

The annual Awareness Dinner at the Tofield Community Hall Saturday celebrated the volunteer work of many people involved with the Busy B organization. Those attending were given a roast beef dinner by way of saying thank you for their efforts over the past year.

Donations were also made to many worthy organizations that help others, both near and far.

Dignitaries attending the event included Fort Saskatchewan-Vegreville MLA Jacquie Fenske, Tofield Mayor Nabil Chehayeb and Deputy Mayor Harold Conquest.
