Major Steak Shoot 2023 is a success!

By Joan Janzen

The Major Rec Board hosted a successful Steak Shoot on Saturday, April 15th at the Major Community Hall. Doors opened at 5:00 p.m., when guests were invited to partake of a delicious steak supper, complete with baked potato, Caesar salad and an ice cream bar for dessert. The hard-working volunteers from the Rec Board prepared the meal.

About a hundred people enjoyed the meal, and were joined by additional guests for the remainder of the evening. The evening was filled with plenty of activities for everyone.

A mini shooting range was set up in the basement, where participants showcased their skills using pellet guns. There were numerous door prizes given out during the evening, a raffle, a guaranteed 50/50, and a live auction. Jason Patton did the honours as the auctioneer.

A highlight of the night was the musical performance by local artist Ray Blackburn. He entertained the audience with a variety of classics.

Rec Board Member, Bailey Kemery, said proceeds from the event go towards keeping their local hall open. The small group of seven board members is a very capable group. “We’ve done this for a few years, and it just kind of flows,” Bailey said.
