Issue #3 of The Ram and Ewe Online
Greetings!
We're right on time with this edition of the Ram and Ewe... with the brisk weather and all-too-short summer, it was easy to stay indoors at the computer to get everything ready for this edition.
In honour of the 2010 "summer that never was", Patrick shares memories and his own definitive take on a cherished Canadian summer pastime, camping. Get set for some chuckles as you recall your own "oh-I-know-THAT" instances in the great Canadian wilds.
October quickly approaches, so we want to make sure you know about our "Dinner at the Farm" evenings coming up Saturdays throughout October. Farm-fare for a fair price. Check out our website for all the juicy details.

Christmas Shows and More
If you would like to shop in person with PaSu but you're not sure when you will make it out to the Farm, we have good news...
Starting in mid-October through December, we will be back at our mall location at Northland Shops (corner of Shaganappi and Crowchild) in Calgary. A good deal of our stock will be there for your Christmas shopping convenience.
We will also be at the Agri-Trade at the Westerner Park in Red Deer November 10 - 13, and at the Spruce Meadows Christmas Market November 12 - 14 and November 19 - 21.
With all this going on, we could use some temporary seasonal help in the Boutique during this busy time of year. If you are able to help us by working at our retail locations during this time, we would like to hear from you. Please call Sue at the Boutique for information.
+++++
Finally, we are also hosting a couple Christmas Dinner Theatres in December... Six Deadly Sins on December 4, and No Accounting for Murder on December 11. Carousel Productions is once again supplying us with the evenings' entertainment. Please call us for more information at 1-800-679-7999.
Wishing you all much health and prosperity in the coming year.
