Mary Jane’s Cooking School, 252 Arlington Street

Over the years to celebrate my birthday, I've raised awareness of and funds for a number of charities and organizations close to my heart. This year I've chosen to raise money for Mary Jane's Cooking School (MJCS) which provides education in nutritional home cooking in harmony with individual community and cultural traditions, with respect and care for the environment. Mary Jane Eason is a trail blazer who continues to give her time and knowledge to the community.

Mary Jane’s Cooking School has provided education in both drop-in classes and formal class settings. Some classes have met off-site, at such locations as St. Margaret’s and Holy Trinity Anglican churches, at the Saigon Centre of the Free Vietnamese Association, and in the West End Senior Centre.
With the assistance of Native elders, MJCS includes program information and activities particularly relating to aboriginal culture and spirituality. 

Tax receipts will be issued for any donation above $10. 
Cheques should be made payable to Mary Jane's Cooking School and sent to 252 Arlington Street, Winnipeg, Mb, R3G 1Y8. 

Light refreshments will be served. If you can come by for a visit, I'd love to see you. If you can't make it, I'd very much appreciate your contribution. Thank you. Merci beaucoup. ~ Janine Le Gal

Hope you and your small dog will join Manitoba Pug Rescue for a walk in Kildonan Park! We walk from the Pavilion parking lot to the Witches Hut along the River Walk past Rainbow Stage and the Pool and back to the Pavillion parking lot. Just a nice distance for a pug or small dog to get some exercise and of course we have “pit stops” for water along the way!
