Hearing Improvement
The Hearing Improvement Committee
of Guelph has the objective
of helping fellow citizens with
hearing loss by co-operating with
and assisting professionals who
deal with it; promoting hearing accessibility
within our own community;
holding regular information
sessions to encourage greater understanding
of the problem and
what is available to help it.
We meet the first Wednesday of
each month from October through
May from 2-3:30 pm in the Boardroom.
We discuss problems affecting
those with hearing loss and try
to find solutions. Our meetings also
have a social component. For further
information, call Marianne at
519-822-3946.
Line Dancing
Line dances are choreographed
dances with a repeating series of
steps that are performed in unison
by a group of people in lines, rows
or circles. One of the great things
about line dancing is that no experience
is necessary. Line dances are
easy to learn, and as with any other
style of dance, the more you do it,
the better you will become. Instructors
do a walk-through before each
dance and then demonstrate and
call the steps as the music
plays. You don’t need a partner,
just come have fun. We dance all
year to a wide variety of music.
Everyone welcome!
Our classes are for beginner to improved
(beginner plus):
Mondays – 9:30 a.m. to 11:45 a.m.
We teach basic steps at 9:15 a.m.
Thursdays -1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.
We teach basic steps at 12:45 p.m.
Into Focus Photography Club
A long time ago, some academics
researched what people would
change about themselves, if they
could. Most commonly, it was their
hair. People with curly wanted
straight and the other way around.
No one wished they were bald, but
a lot of people are. Our April theme
