Is é an uile faoi do chuid!

It’s All About You!

Well, first, it’s about me, saying good-bye to you all, as I hand over the reins to the new Prez and her Board and wish all of them the best as I get to enjoy the AWCD as an active non-Board member! It has been a privilege and a pleasure.

Now - for the “You” part!

June has been officially declared AWCD Member Appreciation Month!

We have many members to thank for their contributions organizing, hosting and giving their time to ensure we had another wonderful Club Year. I will try not to forget anyone in the Acknowledgement page in this edition, but if I do, please don’t be shy! Drop me a line, let me know. I want to have an accurate picture of all of your contributions for our archives!

How do we plan to show our appreciation? Well, with an AWCD Swag Bag, of course!

Throughout the month (and beyond) there will be opportunities for you to collect your bag. In addition to the June Luncheon, there will be several coffee gatherings all around town, North, South, East and West, weekends included, where you can meet up and grab your bag. Those get-togethers are being organized as we speak, so keep an eye on your Wild Apricot calendar and sign up for one.

Swag Bags will also be available at the Fourth of July/Canada Day cookout at my place in Greystones on Saturday, July 5th. And not to worry, even if you can’t make any of these activities (So sorry we’ll miss you!), I am around all Summer, and we will find a way to connect and deliver your tokens of appreciation.

One more thing. To show our gratitude for your support and your engagement with the AWCD, we will have a drawing for a free MEMBERSHIP for the 25/26 Club Year!

Ladies, we know these are just small tokens of how we feel about our fabulous membership, but know that you are appreciated and that we recognize that together we have built - and maintain - a truly special community.

Looking forward to more good times together and thank you for your support these last two years.

AWCD President 2023-2025
