Hello everyone!
Finally, spring has sprung! Here is just a little update as to what is in place or not in place as of yet ;)I am currently working on accommodations for the Elder's Conference 2011. Here is who I have so far: Marion & Spruce, Sally & David, Mable J., Calhoun, Kenny, Mary M., Kathy, Mary H., Ernie H., John & Irene, Willie & Charlotte, Sara & Richard, Doug, Harry, Emma, William, Mary V., Bird, Dorey, Betty, Paddy, Nellie & Peewee.Please note that we only have room for a fraction of the elders we have on the entire list. So please sign up early!
The next lunch meeting will be April 5, 2011 @ 12pm place: Elder's Centre
The Gwa'sala-'Nakwaxda'xw Elders would like to thank everyone for their votes on the approval for their Grant Proposal. Please note that we have not yet received the funds and we will not receive them until April :) Just in case anyone has been wondering ;)
We tried having a Bakwam'Gala Tea with Mike Willie again on the 17th. Unfortunately, we had zero show up. SO we have brain stormed a few different routes we would like to try. Here they are: we could make it dinner here @ the Elder's Centre or take those of you interested out for coffee or lunch somewhere individually. What do you think? If you are interested, please call me here @ the Elder's Building (949 7406) or Mike @ the School (949 7743). I look forward to hearing from you!
It seems like it has been ages since we have had nice weather! Since the sun has been coming around to play more often, there will be walking club on nice days @ 1pm meeting @ the bridge. If you require assistance, please call me ahead of time so I can come pick you up pr help you. The life skills & Grief & loss workshops have been moved down to the Youth Centre. Please mark on your calendars: Elder's exercise session every Thursday @ 11am-12pm!
Once we have our funding in place, we will start up weekly swims, exercise classes & other adventures. Please be sure to come to the next meeting to give your ideas of events & activities we can do in the near future. We will also start nominations of escorts also.
We have a catering job April 7th @ 9am Elder's Centre!
I think that about wraps it up for now. Have a great week everyone!
