Bud, Spud, and Steak Night

September 29
Beausejour Legion #132 – Beausejour

In rural Manitoba, nothing beats a night out at a local community Bud, Spud and Steak Night to support local community groups. This night is in support of Haystack Productions, a local community theatre group that is entering its 25th year and producing its 50th production. In most cases, heading out for the meal alone should be enough to encourage you to go, but this Bud, Spud, and Steak Night will feature some amazing entertainment by Don Zueff, Al Simmons, Tracey K, and Jamie Steinhoff!

BBQ Pulled Pork Fall Supper and Dance

September 29
Nuefeld Garage – Randolph

Fall Suppers are a bit of a tradition here in Manitoba, but the BBQ Pulled Pork Fall Supper and Dance, will be a little less traditional than most. Sure, you’re still going to get the great meal you’ve come to expect at a Fall Supper, and you’re still going to enjoy the great community spirit and charm that oozes from the rafters, but you’re also going to get an Ole Time Country Dance! Get ready to get those toes tapping for a full evening of entertainment with Boots Randolph.

Louis’s Fall Challenge


September 29
Emerson Golf Course – Emerson

Head on out for Louis’s Fall Challenge and sneak in, what is quite possibly the last golf tournament you’ll find in Eastern Manitoba this season. There will be cash prizes and a Fall Turkey Dinner to top off a great day of golf.
