“MEMORIAL DONATIONS”<br />
A very special thank you to the families of our late members who, at a very<br />
difficult time in their lives, have remembered the <strong>Centre</strong> in different ways<br />
— by mentioning their loved one’s membership here at the <strong>Centre</strong> and<br />
by suggesting donations may be made to the<br />
Special Projects Fund.<br />
Our best wishes for a speedy recovery to those not in the best of health!<br />
We have a limited number of bricks<br />
still available for sponsorship at $100.00 each<br />
The “Corporate” Portion of our Brick Wall still has spots available - this is for donations of<br />
between $1,000 and $4,999 (bronze); between $5,000 and $9,999 (silver); and $10,000 and above (gold).<br />
We are keeping track of all donations received since the beginning of our Brick Wall project (that have not been<br />
acknowledged with either a Brick or a Teddy Bear) and once an individual’s donations reach the $1,000 mark<br />
they will be acknowledged on the “Corporate” wall.<br />
Thanks to all who support the <strong>Centre</strong>’s fundraising efforts<br />
Tax Receipts will be issued for all donations.<br />

We chat about this and we chat about that<br />
We all look forward to seeing each other<br />
Seven sisters but only one brother<br />
We listen to the others woes and understand their plight<br />
We have all been there once or twice<br />
But never gave up the fight<br />
So lets give thanks for the friendship we share<br />
And the time we spend as a group<br />
And each and everyone of us will never break the loop<br />

Both our Christmas Parties were a hugh success.<br />
Thank you to all our Music Groups & their leaders,<br />

and his Elf were also appreciated, as we know that<br />
everyone was on their best behaviour all year!!

POT LUCK LUNCHES<br />
I just wanted to let all our Pot Luck people know, that if you do not feel like cooking, there are other alternatives.<br />
You could pick up some sliced cold meat, salads, jellos, possibly a meat pie, or other frozen entrée, (and heat it in the<br />
oven before you come); or ice cream, pies, (the bakeries in the stores do some great baking)!!<br />
This would help our Staff who are now spending some valuable time cooking, instead of doing their own particular<br />
jobs. This makes it hard to find the time to do everything. Please see if these ideas will work for you, as it would definitely<br />
work for the <strong>Centre</strong>.<br />
