MIDWAY SENIORS BRANCH #117

REPORT TO REGIONAL SPRING MEETING

April 10, 2017, held at the TRAIL SENIOR CENTRE

GREETINGS FROM MIDWAY

The past year has been a good year for the Midway Seniors.

We have seen our old, outdated kitchen replaced with a new modern “Food Safe Certified” kitchen complete with a commercial sanitizing dishwasher. This huge improvement was thanks to the New Horizon’s Grant for seniors program.

We have also just received word that our 2016-2017 New Horizon’s Grant to improve accessibility to our building and parking area has been approved. The work will be done over the summer months when all of our events/activities will be cancelled.

With sadness, we mourn the passing of another Lifetime member, Jean Carpenter.

Our 2017 membership list is now at 54 members and one lifetime member.

Activities at our centre include Art Club on Mondays, easy chair exercise on Tuesdays, crafts on Thursdays and coffee every Friday morning. Whenever the centre is open there are usually a few fellows who come to play pool.

Three Wednesdays a month we have a business meeting, a Birthday Tea and a Potluck supper.

Our centre is also rented by various groups for seminars and/or workshops.

 

Respectfully Submitted,

Lorraine Bradford,

President
