Labor Day Pancake Breakfast

This breakfast, served on the morning of the Labor Day parade, is a great opportunity for the Activettes members to meet the people of Cochrane and area and create awareness of our organization. We are busy serving up pancakes and sausage while music and entertainment are enjoyed by all. Cochrane Ford has been our title sponsor for this great event. Guys Bakery and Tim Hortons are also sponsors. 

Annual Christmas Light-Up

This is a fun family event drawing businesses and residents together to “Light Up” for the season. The Activettes play host to Santa. He makes an entrance and visits with the children on Main Street. This is our “kickoff” to the food and gift collection for Share Your Christmas.
