Thank you everyone for engaging in our little contest! We loved seeing everyone’s guesses (especially because the wrong ones gave us some more ideas for what we could bring in in the future)!

For those that guessed NEW MUGS, you were right! We put your names into a draw and our winner is Natasha!!!

We will have Red, Blue, White, and Black “tinnies” available this summer.

We spy…. A new item coming to the store this summer.

This may or may not be an easy one but let’s do a mini giveaway for this item. We will give a small hint to start: the winner will get two of these because they’re relatively small!

(1) Give us your guess on what the item is
(2) Share your favourite thing about Highwind
(3) Tag a friend!

Oh… and make sure you’re actually following the page! If there’s multiple right answers, we will do a draw!

Contest will close Friday @ 10pm!

Well friends… we finally did it. The cabins will officially have BBQs this summer. For our American guests… “grills”.
No more hauling from home or trying to cook burgers over an open fire. 🔥

Yesterday would have been Marie’s 82nd birthday. We didn’t post because it was a bit of a bittersweet day. Lyn was able to visit with Ollie, Katherine & their family to have a birthday celebration in honour of Marie. He did say he heard from many family and friends and it was very nice.

Hello Friends & Family!
We wanted to let everyone know that a celebration of life is being planned for Marie on June 20th. The memorial will be at Lakeside Baptist in Kenora. There will be more details closer to the date.

Thank you!

🍪 Rules are Rules:
2 cookies allowed✌🏻

Grandpa Lyn has been making these cookies for decades after Marie could no longer stir the dough. They were her favourite treat (besides her dark chocolate of course).
We don’t know if the recipe was always enough for 6 cookie tins worth, but it ended up that way. If you’ve ever seen the giant bread bowl worth of dough, you know some muscles were required to mix everything by the end.

We are SO grateful for the outpouring of love and condolences regarding Marie's passing. We will continue to share some memories for the next while as we know everyone loves to see them.
One of the amazing stories shared was about Marie's delicious cabbage rolls and we happened to find a photo of her at Quail Run preparing them! As most of us know, Lyn stepped up in the kitchen when Marie's health deteriorated due to undiagnosed Lyme Disease. Over the years, her grandchildren would help prepare the cabbage rolls and she would direct us on how to hold the leaves just right and tuck the filling in perfectly.
After Marie was properly diagnosed and began treatment for Lyme, she was able to help more in the kitchen and could once again make the cabbage rolls herself. They were a true labour of love and we are so grateful for the memories such a simple thing has brought to others.
