Dear friends,

You’ll soon receive an email from our Nominating Committee with a ballot, the slate of nominees, and instructions about how to vote. I send sincere thank yous to our outgoing board members, Wendy, Barbara, and Lindsay for all their good work. I am also rolling off the board this year.

And, a very genuine thank you goes out to all of our Activity Chairs who will also be recognized at the AGM. They are the heart and soul of AWG and what many of us love most about our club. Kudos and applause for:

Wendy (Book Club), Susan R and Katherine .Coffee Chat), Orla (Cook & Eat), Linda and Jany (Talk and Sit Language Exchange) Mariannick, Walking Group, Mariannick and Rosie (Beach Babes), Pam 'Writers’ Bloc)

And finally, a sincere thank you to the following members who have played important roles in the life of our club this year:
