Entertainment Director Needed

We are in need of an Entertainment Director. This is a fun position where you are mainly responsible for organizing our monthly socials with the exception of the months of July and August. We have helpers but need some one to the responsibility of being the organizer. Please call Ray Ryan @ 403 609-3328 for information about this position.

Birthday Tea

The tea for February 16 is cancelled because we do not have a volunteer coordinator. Someone has stepped forward for April but we still need a coordinator for June. If you are interested in being the Coordinator for the Birthday Teas, please call Ray Ryan at 403-609-3328.

PLEASE note that the NEXT birthday tea will be on Saturday April 10th as the first Saturday in April is on the Easter weekend.

Here is a bargain for serious stamp collectors. A Canmore gentleman has a stamp collection that he wants to give away. Call Jean-Pierrie at 403 678-2438
