New 2018-19 Annual Report - rev 2

The Sentinel Report
The Sentinel office is a very busy place. Not only does the Sentinel team produce and print our
monthly newsletter, they print most of the posters (thanks to the Editor, Linda Green) for the
GWSA special events. Printing requirements for the Annual Report, The Variety Show, GWSA
Dances, GWSA Garage Sale, Euchre Tournaments, and the Craft Sale, are examples of the
work. This includes printing the tickets and programs for these events. Brochures, flyers and
letters are folded using the folding machine located in the Sentinel Office. There is a cutting
machine which is used to cut tickets and smaller posters for some of the groups. The posters,
tickets and programs for our Variety Show are also printed by the Sentinel.
Remember, if you want your birthday or
anniversary put into the Sentinel, you MUST
let us know by the 1 st of the month PRIOR to
the occasion (i.e., August for September, April
for May, etc.). If, by chance, you ‘forget’ and
still want it put in, we can do that in the
following month’s edition. Also, we aren’t
familiar with all of the GWSA members so, if
you hear or know of a member’s passing,
please let us know in the Sentinel office so we
can include their information in the Passages.
Once the June/July/August issue is printed, The Sentinel Team doesn’t take the summer off as
many members presume. They prepare the documents for the Annual General Meeting (AGM)
held near the end of June, and they also contact all the advertisers to have them renew their
contracts for the next term of September to June.
