I live in Red Lake, Ontario, Canada and my family runs a float plane service, outposts and a lodge. This is more than a business; it is a life style.
Every year, every season, every day brings something new. I try to blog about life our way.

Friday Night Meat Draw at the Legion










What do you do on a Friday after work in Red Lake?
Well... that's easy. Drop in for the meat draw.

People plan to meet for a drink on their way home from work. Buy a few tickets and you might win MEAT for supper. Proceeds go to charities.
A definite Northern tradition!

In this picture, Harriet and Kurt are happy to visit. Behind them, Kim and Denis from Pakwash Lake Camp (Kim's blog is http://pakwashlakefishing.blogspot.com/), and Elizabeth Hagerdorn from Chimo Lodge are out for the meat draw. Robert Partridge is giving away the meat as usual.

Meet you here on a cold winter night.

  1. Enid,

    I love reading about all the "goings ons" in and about Red Lake. I will never complain about the cold nights that I've spent up at the outposts in May.

Please send comments and suggestions. I will try to answer questions about ice out, the weather, fishing and the Red Lake area.
