A MESSAGE FROM THE GWSA
BOARD
The GWSA is powered by volunteers. Each year in April, Canada
pauses to recognize the contributions of our many volunteers. This
year’s theme for National Volunteer Week is “The value of one. The
power of many.” Kofi Annan, former Secretary-General of the
United Nations, has said, “If our hopes of building a better and safer
world are to become more than wishful thinking, we will need the
engagement of volunteers more than ever.”
As the GWSA plans for our reopening – hopefully in September –
we face an ongoing need for volunteers. Please consider volunteering
some of your time and talent to help the GWSA serve our members
and seniors in the community. The following groups meet virtually
and are seeking new volunteers.
Board of Directors
Each year, the GWSA membership elects individuals willing to make
a three-year commitment to serve on the Board of Directors. The
Board meets monthly to supervise the activities of the organization
and provide oversight to the various committees. Directors serve on
at least one committee. Although anyone interested in the best
interests of the organization is welcome on the Board, experience in
the fields of Human Resources, Law, Fundraising, or Technology
would be especially beneficial. Contact Becky MacDonald
(becky.macdonald@guelph.ca) for more information about serving as
a Director.
Governance Committee
The GWSA’s Governance Committee is looking for up to three
additional members. The Governance Committee assists the Board of
Directors with the development and review of bylaws, policies, and
procedures for the Association. It is chaired by Brian Smith.
This Committee holds morning meetings during a few months each
year. Experience in governance with a not-for-profit organization,
knowledge of legislative requirements, or a keen interest in document
research, development, and review would be helpful.
We also need someone with a laptop and computer skills willing to
take minutes at meetings and update documents as needed.
Please contact Becky MacDonald (becky.macdonald@guelph.ca) to
indicate your interest in serving on the Governance Committee.
Membership and Marketing Committee
The Membership and Marketing Committee currently has nine
members and could benefit from up to three more. This Committee is
responsible to the Board for all membership and marketing
initiatives, focusing on the maximum interest of members, and
advancement of the Board’s Strategic Plan. It is chaired by Ken
Fugler.
NOTE: Disclaimer—The Sentinel and the GWSA do not necessarily agree
with or support statements in the Sentinel made by advertisers, or submissions
by writers (no political or religious topics please).

The M&M Committee monitors membership satisfaction and develops plans to improve member
recruitment and retention. Marketing responsibilities include arranging for media coverage, creating
advertisements, developing promotional material, and arranging special events such as Open House and
New Members’ Welcome - either virtually or in-person as appropriate.
The Committee provides content and messaging advice to the webmaster for the website and social media
accounts and prepares monthly GWSA Email Updates. Marketing and recruitment experience would
definitely be assets but are not required.
Please contact Becky MacDonald (becky.macdonald@guelph.ca) to indicate your interest in serving on the
Membership and Marketing Committee.
Technology Committee
Mike Woof is organizing a new Technology Committee to advise the Board of Directors and provide
technical leadership in support of the Strategic Plan.
For production support, we need a group of technically savvy and interested members to prioritize a list of
needed projects for planning and implementation. Experience as an electrician, sound tech, lighting
technician, carpentry or design would be useful, and possibly computer-aided design skills. We will source
outside help where needed.
Our IT (Information Technology) also needs to be addressed by this Committee, with responsibility to:
Make hardware and software recommendations to address employee and volunteer needs, including the
Board, Finance Committee and members.
Oversee a small wireless network.
Provide guidance regarding the technical aspects of the website and membership mailing list.
Establish a modest A/V recording/live streaming studio.
Interest and background experience in IT, including network management and video production, would be
assets.
Please contact Becky MacDonald (becky.macdonald@guelph.ca) to indicate your interest in serving on the
Technology Committee.
GWSA Email Update for the Month of March 2021
All the Latest News
The City of Guelph has opened registration for their Spring programs. People are sometimes confused about
which programs are City programs and which are run by GWSA. As a reminder, GWSA has suspended
in-person activities until September or until Public Health advises us that it is safe for us to resume.
All GWSA memberships have been automatically extended at no cost to members.
A number of GWSA activity groups are meeting virtually. Contact the activity group leader listed on the
Activities page of the website or email Programme Committee Chair, Pat Gage, with questions.

The National Institute on Aging
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) released a guidance document titled COVID-19 Vaccines: What
Older Canadians Need to Know, authored by Dr. Samir Sinha, Ms. Sabina Vohra-Miller, and Dr. Jennie
Johnstone. The document outlines common questions arising among older Canadians regarding COVID-19
vaccines, along with evidence-informed answers to help keep Canadians up-to-date on the facts.
The guidance document explains in clear language how vaccines work, what mRNA is and how it’s used to
make vaccines, the critical steps taken to creating the COVID-19 vaccines, its effectiveness in older adults,
any side effects, and whether or not older adults who have already had COVID-19 need to be vaccinated.
The NIA encourages Canadians to read and share this document to help spread evidence-based answers to
key questions and concerns many older Canadians are facing. If you are an older adult - or caring for an
older adult - that does not want to get the vaccine, it may be helpful to read and share this guidance
document widely.
The document is available here.

With the continued danger brought about by the
COVID-19 virus, the possibilities of more virulent
strains, along with the uncertainty of the distribution
and effectiveness of the various vaccines, organizers
Trevor Barton and Brian Holstein have regretfully
announced that again this year, the Tea ‘n’ Tales
summer storytelling festival at the Guelph Enabling
Garden has been cancelled.
The organizers had hoped that the summer-long
Friday festival could resume this year, but the possible
health threat to the many seniors who regularly attend
is of prime importance.
Evergreen Kitchen
The City of Guelph is offering a frozen meal program at the Evergreen
Seniors Community Centre.
Here are the details:
Purchase 5 meals for $25.
Pre-order is mandatory.
Call or email Becky M. at 519-822-1260 x2691
or Becky.MacDonald@guelph.ca to place your order.
You may choose either meat or vegetarian packages. If you require
adjustments for allergies/dietary restrictions, please let Becky know
at the time of your order. The kitchen will make adjustments when
possible.
Meals can be paid for in person or over the phone with a credit card.

The Value of One, The Power of Many
April 18-24, 2021
The National Volunteer Week theme for 2021, The Value of One, The Power of Many, reflects
on the awe-inspiring acts of kindness by millions of individuals AND the magic that happens when
we work together towards a common purpose. This past year, we have seen people supporting
family, friends, neighbours, and strangers, people standing up to systemic racism, and people
sharing insights on how to create a more just and equitable society. We recognize the value of the
caring and compassion that each one has shown another, and we recognize the power of people,
organizations, and sectors working together.
#VolunteersBringChange in many ways so what does “The Value of One, The Power of Many”
mean to you?
National Volunteer Week is a time to celebrate, recognize and thank volunteers, and to create
awareness for the important work millions do across Canada!
The Kitchen Bees program is an Outreach Project of
The Church of the Apostles in Guelph, Ontario.
We bring in volunteers every Tuesday and Thursday
from 10 am - 2 pm to come and make meals for the
community in need. As a program, we provide a
recipe and all of the ingredients required - our
volunteers are only required to make/bake/cook them.
We work closely with community support groups
including The Bench, Royal City Mission, The
GNSC, Hope House, and many more. This is a noncommittal
volunteer position - you will only need to volunteer once (however you
can come back as well!)
You are allowed to come by yourself, or with anyone within your social circle. You
will be the only group there, to help stop the spread of COVID-19.

A favourite shirt missing a button? A seam splitting

As a program of the Guelph Tool Library, funding has been made available for
delivery costs.
