MERRY CHRISTMAS!
THOUGHT OF THE DAY:
"Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving."
MESSAGE FROM EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE:
Ladies:
So, far our survey is split evenly between the Maritimes and Ontario. A few ladies have said they will help, however, no one has contacted the Executive to say they want to be on the ground organizers. This group of people would be a committee where the Reunion would take place. We will run the survey again for the month of December. If Reunion 16 is going to happen in 2024, we need to give the team as much lead time as possible. National will stay on so the new team does not have to take on finance, newsletter, or database, etc. We will work with the R16 committee.
Any members who are interested in helping with the organization of the next reunion please contact us here.
Click this link to see R15 photos or see them on the website and look under Reunions. While you're there, browse the old photos, and help us fill in names that we are missing.
LUNCHEONS:
Meetings are starting up again. Go to a luncheon and meet up with friends. So far the feedback has been positive. Getting out and seeing each other in person has been an uplifting experience.
Not all of the regular luncheons are posted in the newsletter. Check with your luncheon coordinators to find out if your group is starting to meet again.
Some luncheon groups have a break until the new year at this time. There are many luncheon groups out there. Check with your local group to see when they are meeting next.
