Presidents Message:

I hope this message finds you and yours well and in good health.

“July is nature’s way of telling us to pause, breathe, and just exist.”

Last month we celebrated Seniors Week, with a variety of events taking place at

different locations throughout our community. Our club proudly hosted two

Events a Sock Hop and a crib tournament and I’m pleased to say that both

were very well attended. Thank you to everyone who volunteered, participated,

and helped make these events such a success.

Looking ahead, we have the Vice President’s BBQ coming up this month. The

response has been outstanding, and I am happy to report that the event is already

sold out. Thank you to everyone for your continued enthusiasm and support. We

look forward to another great gathering together.

A friendly reminder that we are still looking for a volunteer to take on the role of

Treasurer. Please keep a watchful eye out for someone who would be a good fit

for this important position. If you know someone with good organizational and

financial skills who may be interested, encourage them to speak with a member

of the Executive. Your help in finding the right person is greatly appreciated.

Community Links Ideas

There is no Community Links presentation in July and August. The next presentation will be on September 2nd. If you have any ideas for these presentations they can be forwarded to social@airdrieover50club.com for consideration by the Community Links coordinator.
