Canadians enjoy Riverside Club celebration
The 77th annual Rio Grande Valley Livestock Show, one of the largest live-stock shows in the nation, will kick off with a preview night Thursday, Mar. 10 at 4 p.m. with a $5 parking fee and free gate admission. All other days admission is $10 for adults and $5 for children. The carnival will be open and the Junior Santa Gertrudis Futurity will be held at 7 p.m. in the event center.
The Livestock Show officially runs from Mar. 11 through Mar. 20. Look for rodeos, concerts, agricultural exhibits, horse and cattle shows along with pigs, goats, rabbits, and other animals on dis-play for judging. There will be a petting zoo for children. The exhibit halls will be filled with FFA and 4-H projects, antique farm equipment, specialty entertainment and a variety of vendors with items for sale. When you get hungry, you’ll find all a number of food vendors lining the fairway offering a wide variety of food, snacks and beverages. There is a beer garden for those who are tired of walking and want to relax a bit. It is a great way to spend one or more days enjoying the
By Brittany AsburyRegine and Ken, of
Manitoba, Canada, took the complimentary golf-cart ride from the Riv-erside Club’s overflow parking to the club itself for the annual Canada Day celebration, and enjoyed the ride in the warm air. “It’s our sixth year in the Valley,” Ken said with a smile. “We’re ‘too old to be cold.’ We even have that painted on the side of our trailer.”
The warm Texas weath-er was the main draw for many more Canadians and
other Winter Texans who came south and gathered on Canada Day at the Riv-erside Club in Mission, Texas.
Phil and Mary Jo Dob-berfuhl, of Oconomowoc, Wis., travelled down to the Valley for the very first time, and were delighted to become Winter Texans.
“What I like so far is having a nice cigar out-side,” Phil said with a smile. “Having bare feet,” Mary Jo chimed in. “Not having to put on a coat outside,” they both con-tinued. “Driving with the
windows down, eating outside every day, drink-ing hot coffee outside, see-ing the Rio Grande. I nev-er thought we’d actually get to see the Rio Grande, but there it is,” Phil add-ed, as he watched the river waters flow gently by.
The Dobberfuhls were sitting at an outside cafe table with their friends, Gary and Dianne, from Delafield.
“We’ve gone to the Winter Texan fair and both Canadian fairs at the

McAllen Convention Center,” Gary said. “We look in the Winter Texan Times for music and interesting items for sale. We went to Quinta Mazatlan for the World Birding Center, and went on nature walks. We got to see an ocelot stalking.”
Larry and Paula Barnes, of Missouri, were also outside enjoying the weath-er at a cafe table. “It’s our sixth winter here. We like to play bingo, go to dinner and dances, take a riverboat cruise, go to South Padre Island and sit on the beach. We went to Mexico.”
Bill and Velva Frazier, who shared the Barnes’ table, added that they read the Winter Texan Times every week for things to do. “I like to see what’s going on, what’s for sale, get information on re-unions and meetings.”
Just one table over were two more cou-ples from Wisconsin. Gene and Georgene, of Birchwood, are dairy farmers who re-arranged their schedule to come down to Texas for the winter, while Harold and Nancy Stein, of Mikana, are both retired.
“We’re enjoying the weather,” Gene said, and Nancy Stein added, “It’s just nice because everyone is friendly down here.”
The friendly nature of Texas and oth-
er Winter Texans is what brought Fred and Gladys Fiss, of Dobbimkon, Canada, back to the Valley.
“It’s our sixth season down here, at Alamo Palms. We were hesitant to come…but we made new friends,” Fred explained, and gestured to Bob and Eula Broadway. “They’ve adopted us.”
“What we find in common down here is a lot of old people!” Bob added, laugh-ing.
Ghaislaine Gagnom and her husband Jean-Paul Mallette, with their friends Linda Vaccheno and her husband Robaire Brissom, and Christiane Leclerc and her husband Jean-Yves Turjeon, were all vis-iting the Valley for the second time, but were visiting the Riverside Club for the first time.
“We’re here because we’ve seen that this was supposed to be Canada Day,” Ghaislaine explained, translating from French for her friends. “We’ve gone ev-erywhere. Mexico a few times. My hus-band likes Walmart and restaurants. He likes shopping and eating!” Mallette nodded agreement and laughed as Ghais-laine went on. “I do handicrafts. Quilting, sewing, knitting, crocheting; made some furniture for inside the motorhome. I do a little of everything; it’s in the family, we’re all handy people.”

Inside the building, hidden from the diners outside, the celebration of Canada Day was going on.
Gordon and Mary Ann Stewart, of Win-chester, Ontario, were sharing a long table with several other Canadians, including Helen Link and Will Wilson, both from Ottawa. “We’re all down here to celebrate Canada Day, here for the entertainment. We’re staying in Pleasant Valley Park, in Mission. We go to Mexico, play bingo at different parks, golf, go to South Padre Is-land once or twice a year, go to jams.”
“We enjoy the sun, and music jams. No snow is wonderful,” Helen said.
“Or ice rain,” Mary Ann agreed. Randy and Judy Buchko, of Manito-
ba, agreed that weather was the real draw. “We’ve been coming down here for 24 years. We tried all the other places, but we like Texas best. We’re not ‘Snowbirds,’ we’re Winter Texans!”
One table down,Pierre Pellerin, working his English around French translations for his wife, Ginette, and his friends Gilles and Lucie Charbonneau, was enthusiastic about getting away from the snow. “We all stay in Sleepy Valley Park. This is our fourth year in the Valley; last year we bought a house, so we expect to come here more a few more years. The first reason we came here is be-cause people here are so welcoming, and the second?” He laughed. “The weather!”

Peggy Miller, a renown ventriloquist, has been entertaining people worldwide for more than two decades with Willie. Willie can be a smart aleck, but deep down he is a totally sincere young man whose has an ability to get his audience involved in his show. He often shares the show with his great-great granny who charms folks from her generation. His cousin Hannah, a wan-na-be star, also comes along at times. It is a unique show where audiences almost be-lieve Willie is a real boy.

Tilted KiltWhere good times are alWays on tap!
If you haven’t experienced the Tilted Kilt, then you are missing out! Located on the south side of Expressway 83 just West of Ware Rd. in McAllen, this Celtic-themed restaurant offers a total sensory experience.
As soon as you walk in, you are greeted by one of their beautiful and friendly Kilt Girls and ushered to a comfortable table. Surrounded by a warm pub-like at-mosphere you also have a 360° view of multiple HD television screens streaming all the sports action you can handle.
From classic pub fare to gourmet burgers, the menu is sure to have something for everyone in your group to enjoy. Their burger selection includes the Big Arse® Burger that comes with a ½ lb. high quality ground beef patty, made to order and served with your choice of side. If you’re extra hungry, you can even “Make It A Dub-lin” by adding a second ½ lb. beef patty and double the cheese.
Other burger choices include the Wicked Boston Burger that comes with Maple pepper bacon, American cheese, caramelized onion relish, burger sauce, leaf let-tuce and ripe tomato. The Hot Mess Burger is a fork and knife burger with TK chili, cheddar cheese, smothered with Monterey Jack cheese sauce. The Big Arse® Clas-sic burger comes with pickle chips, leaf lettuce, ripe to-
mato, red onion and your choice of cheese -- American, Cheddar, Swiss, Bleu, Provolone of Pepper Jack.
That’s not all! Their super selection of gourmet burg-ers also includes the Double D Burger, SOB Burger, F.A.B. Burger, Pub Fried Egg Burger, California Burger (a turkey burger with swiss cheese, guacamole, lettuce, tomato and red onion), and the BBQ Bacon Cheeseburg-er.
The menu offers much more, including the Pub Cae-sar Salad that comes full of flavor, and for a bit extra you can add grilled chicken.
When it comes to pub fare, we suggest the Olde Dub-lin Irish Stew! Any time of year the tender beef pot roast, mixed with vegetables and a rich and hearty Guinness® beef stock served with a side of garlic bread is a delicious choice!
If you like sandwiches we suggest The ‘Kilt® Club, or if you are in the mood for something different, try their Creamy Pub Pasta! If you have a sweet tooth, their Tilted Guilt will complete any meal.
Get into the Tilted Kilt, where they are eager to put a smile on your face.

ACCEPTING VIP OFFERS
Chimney Park residents donate to Mission Food PantryAl and Gail Quivey and Lloyd Burns
gave a donation of $952 plus 175 food donations to the new Mission Food Pan-try, located at 115 S. Mayberry Road near CWV (Catholic War Veterans) Park in Mission. Adela Ortega, Mission Food Pantry Director gladly accepted the do-nation.
“Our Winter Texans help the Mission Food Pantry so much when they are here from November to April. We get many food donations. The food helps us feed our families. The cash donations are used to purchase food from Foy’s Supermarket
at cost to supply needed items not donat-ed,” Ortega said.
Many Winter Texan parks work to help the Mission Food Pantry, she said. As an example, Mission Bell and Tradewinds Resorts held a Ropa Usada Style Show where admission was a can of food for the pantry. They auctioned off the clothes along with other silent auction items af-terwards and the money, a total of $367, was donated with 427 items of food for the needy in the community.
As Winter Texans are making plans Al & Gail Quivey (L) and LloydBurns (R) present donations of $907 From Chim-ney RV Park to Adela Ortega, Mission Food Pantry Director
