Dear all,
It seems that we can finally leave our umbrellas at home,
for now at least. Our patio is a great place to celebrate
this!
The kitchen is currently open Wednesday – Sunday from
noon to 8 pm. Shortly, we will resume our events starting
with Father’s Day specials on the patio and Lebanese
Cuisine night.
Heads up Dads and those who love them!
Read on for your chance to make Dad's special day even
grander...
A group of Lanark County businesses have put together a
Gift Basket for Dad that speaks to the senses.
Collectively, we are giving away “made in Lanark County”
Coffee, Chocolate, Maple Syrup Products, theatre tickets,
a blanket, a history book, free beer, food and many more
things.
To get your name (or your Dad’s name) in on the draw, all
you have to do is "like" each of the participating
businesses’ Facebook page and make a comment.
For participating businesses and prizes to win, see below

Father’s Day or Fathers Day, who has the answer?
Fathers Day: No apostrophe
The argument for this variant is that the fathers do not own the day itself. The
day is a day for fathers not a day belonging to fathers, and, since no
possession is involved, there is no need for an apostrophe.
Fathers’ Day: Apostrophe after the “s”
The argument for this variant is the same argument for the spelling of April
Fools’ Day, and that is that there are many fathers in the world and this is all
of their day. Therefore the plural possessive is necessary.
Father’s Day: Apostrophe Before the “s”
The argument for this variant is that the holiday belongs to fathers as
individuals as they relate to an individual family. And since the holiday is
a day where children recognize their respect and gratitude for their own
father, the day is unique to him, giving him ownership over the day and
therefore requiring an apostrophe before the “s.”
