We had a great meeting and lunch on February 13 with approximately 35 people out, which was good considering the weather. We pondered a few ideas for the spring – one being a trip to the Royal Botanical Gardens in Hamilton. It is planned for Tuesday, June 3 with lunch at Pebbles on the way home. We would be taking a coach bus.
This was a great time to plan this event, with the weather the way it is and all of us a little tired of this winter – just picture all those blooms!
Anyone that is going on the Stratford trip, your final payment is due on March 1st.
Quite a few of the members went to Bellmore for their pancake and maple syrup festival last year and expressed an interest in going again, so we will be going and we will be carpooling. If anyone has an interest in going let me know
We have a new activity starting in February, which is chair yoga. Sign-up sheets are at the Friendship Club.
It’s been a hard winter this year since January, with cards being cancelled, line dancing cancelled, so many things cancelled, but hopefully just around the corner we’ll get some better weather and everyone will be out to the club again.
Sharron Colter is having a Writer’s Workshop on February 19 at the club. Lunch is provided and an author will be there. If you’re interested, please get in touch with Sharron or there is also a list at the club. Lunch is free.
Our barbeque beef dinner will be on Saturday, March 1, followed by a euchre tournament. Cost is $15.
On the second Thursday and the last Saturday of every month we do a luncheon or a dinner for a nominal fee. If you’re interested, why not give us a try. Cards are Monday afternoon, Wednesday evening, and Friday afternoon, and we’re happy to teach anyone. It’s just good to get out and socialize.
If you need any further information on any of the activities at the club, don’t hesitate to call 519-375-0959 or email thelionsheadfriendshipclub@gmail.com
