Happy Easter

Welcome!

My sincere thanks to everyone who has gotten in touch this week, subscribed to this email version of the newsletter and have generally been supportive. As of this morning we had almost reached 600 subscribers (that was fast! I am getting prizes lined up now, I promise!) and are well on our way to reaching 1,000 by April 30th.

Please continue to share with friends and family to build our ‘reach’ along the North Shore and beyond. Although the plan is to send this newsletter on a biweekly basis, I will be sending a few bonus issues in April just to make sure folks see something landing in their inboxes sooner rather than later. You can find the archives of past issues at www.thenorthshorenuggets.com.

Race to 1000 - don’t forget to share this free email newsletter with friends and family who may be interested. Each time we add 100 subscribers, we will have a draw for a prize from a local business. All subscribers will be entered in the draw, and if you have referred someone by forwarding this email and them subscribing, you will receive a bonus ballot. If we reach 1000 subscribers by midnight on April 30, 2025, we will have a Grand Prize Draw for a $250 gift certificate to a local business of your choice.  Thank you all for your support.

A Few Nuggets … ICYMI

• Tatamagouche Centre was bustling on Sunday with the “North Shore Community Showcase & Pancake Brunch”. Over 250 attended, 400 pancakes were served, with 34 non-profit/community organizations represented. Thanks to all the volunteers who made this possible - a massive effort.

• North Shore Gardening Life celebrated their first anniversary - well done Elizabeth & Jennifer!

• The Red Knot Bakery reopened their Tatamagouche location briefly this week and will be back April 24th for Thursdays - Sundays from 9am-2pm.

• The 2nd Annual Pancake Brunch hosted at the Wallace Community Centre raising funds in support of Wallace Area Rec. I may, or may not have attended both brunches - all for a good cause ;)
