We held our Annual General Meeting on April 5, 2005, and said goodbye to Board Member Mildred Ramsden, Director of Travel and Cafeteria. On behalf of the Board of Directors, we thank her for her valuable contribution and wish her well. We welcome our new Director of Administration and Secretary to the Board, Marion Duff. Our Board of Directors are committed to keeping the Centre running in an efficient and economically feasible way, and thank you for your contributions, be it as a volunteer, member or guest. As a non-profit organization, we need your assistance to stay within our budget restraints.
Our two previous "Tea with the President", with Sue and myself, have been very successful and we look forward to our third Tea on July 8, 2005. Remember, it is your Centre and we need your suggestions on what programs, bus trips and activities you wish to enjoy, so bring your ideas and your appetite!
Our Tree of Sharing is now in the lobby, and we need your help to keep this annual event "growing". Your purchase of a leaf is your commitment to the Centre and we welcome everyone to participate.
Watch for our tree, located in the front lobby. It has started "growing" its leaves of support. Members and friends can purchase leaves anytime between April 22 and June 3, 2005.
We recognized our 125 volunteers and many sponsors on Friday, April 22, 2005. The event was a great success and one of the highlights was the presentation of our Long Term Service Awards. Congratulations to the volunteers who received their 10 Year and 5 Year awards. Your dedication and commitment to the Older Adult Centre is incredible. Last year, our volunteers contributed almost 21,000 hours of volunteer work. Thank you all so much!
There are some changes taking place with our Staff at the Square One Older Adult Centre.
Please fill out the membership survey (available at the Centre) and return to the Administration Office for a chance at a box of Purdy's Chocolates.
Did you know you can donate all or part of your HBC Reward points from The Bay, Zellers and Home Outfitters? The points will help us purchase needed items for our Centre. Please inquire at the Admin Office.
We now have a selection of books on tape (both CD's and tapes) available for our members to borrow, as well as over 100 movies. Check out the binders in our library!!
Coming Soon!
