Another good habit to create....

Creating a good habit ...research shows that it takes 21 days to establish a new (preferably good :) habit. It has been at least that long since I last checked in and I have still not gotten busy with my next, new habit. Somewhere between New Year's resolutions to eat healthier, excercise more and get more organized, sits my pledge to submit a monthly blog. It is actually no chore to 'write' but more important would be that someone wishes to read my jottings...that said, I will add an update about the tempo in Trochu since Christmas.
A Trochu Centennial Committee has been struck to celebrate  100 years strong, kicking things off with a stroll through history with remarkable Trochuites via a fabulous 2011 calendar  that is enjoying excellent sales for the local Museum and Historical Society as well as a weekly newspaper piece called "Footprints". New Year's Eve exploded on the scene with a wonderful traditional fireworks display immediately followed with hot chocolate and later a cabaret with excellent entertainment by our much loved home-grown "Frere Band". On January 5, exactly a year following our Ignite Tour community meeting, we reconvened to update the community about pertinent ACE events including progress for our Trails System Project. Our family-friendly winter carnival took place in early February with  "Own the Podium"  photo opportunities with former local Olympians. Town Councillor and ACE Leader, Bill Cunningham has been working  toward a new event to debut in Trochu, March 25..."A Taste of Trochu"; whereby local food purveyors will showcase sample-sized fare for all to try, as well as an array of local entertainment emphasizing our rich multi-cultural community.
Following a spirited webinar last week on "Facilitation Techniques" by BarbPedersen, my head is quite stuffed so I will leave you now. Stay tuned for next month's offering as I am determined to make good on at least one of my newly created 'good' habits.....Till next time; Trochu out.
