As summer gets closer, our exercise classes are coming to an end, but will be starting again in September. In the meantime the weather will be nice and we can all get out to have our long walks to help maintain good health. Watch for the September start dates of exercise classes in this Senior Connector. Pie Night - which was held Tuesday, May 20th was very successful. The next Pie Night will not be held until September, so we will see you then. If you want a piece of pie in the meantime, I guess you will have to bake one for yourself. The Mothers Day Tea And Bake Sale was truly a great success. Thank you to all the people who donated baking and volunteered at the event. A lot of friends met at the North Shore Community Centre for tea and catching up on family news. Our Seniors Dinner held on Mothers Day, May 15th was sold out, and there was a great interest and lots of action around the Silent Auction Table. There was pretty heavy bidding on some of the items. Happy Birthday to our members who have a birthday in June ñ Doreen Bliault, George Campbell, Edna Fisher, Mildred Gaten, June Goodman, Annie Harrison, Wally Mayer, Muriel Syrett, Lena Ward, Doris Demchuck, and Gordon Williamson. Happy Birthday to all of you! Tipz & Toez will be at NSCC on Tuesday, June 3rd & Wednesday, June 4th then here again on Tuesday, June 17th & Wednesday, June 18th. They said thanks for your continued support. Our next Seniors Fundraiser Dinner - will be held on Monday, June 23rd at 5:00 pm. Be sure to get your tickets early as these dinners always sell out quickly, and you do not want to miss out on such a great dinner and friendship evening. Frieda will be back playing her accordion.

I believe that there are some exciting things coming up in this service, so we will let you know all about them when we know all the details. Stay tuned in to this “station” in the Senior Connector and we will keep you informed! Our Silent Auctions do quite well at our suppers, so we are always in need of real fine items for the auction. If you have any items that you wish to donate, please bring them to our Hostess in the Maple Room. Thank you for thinking of us for your donations. Not only do we need your donations of auction items, we also need your ideas on new games or events that we can plan for next September start-up. Having fun and great friendships certainly builds a great community spirit, and it helps keep us “young at heart”. We are all extremely proud of the wonderful landscaping surrounding our North Shore Community Centre and the Cottonwood Manor. These grounds are so beautiful because we have such generous people living in the complex, who donate money to buy flowers and shrubs each year. Then, on top of that, they get out to help plant and feed the flowers. What special people they all are! Of course they get hungry and tired doing this job, so Margaret Reed revives them all with a great lunch, Thank You Margaret! Our whole complex looks fantastic and when the flowers and shrubs are fully grown we know it will make a perfect picture for us all to enjoy. Until the next time, please be careful everyone.
