I guess after the weekend we should go with Pennsylvania's Punxsutawney Phil, who saw his shadow and gave us the nod for six more weeks of winer. All right, so it is six more weeks until the first of spring. This is my last chance to remind you of the annual general meeting to be held following lunch on Tuesday, Feb. 21. We should all plan to attend, if not for lunch, at least for the meeting to begin at 1:30 p.m. You must have a 2006 membership to be eligible to vote for new board members. A good reason to renew your membership as soon as possible. Someone told me the other day that they did not drive and could not get to the centre. I guess some have forgotten that if you wish a ride to the centre all you have to do is phone a day ahead to make arrangements for a ride. Use the service. I know there are a multitude of members in the Georgetown Seniors Centre just waiting to express their various talents. Now I have the opportunity for you! The Drama Club is once more preparing for their Variety Night in June and would be overjoyed to hear from you to get a spot on the program. Don't be shy. Step up to the plate. Would you like to "parle en francais"? You can join Roland Lobb as he takes you into Conversational French for eight weeks beginning Tuesday, Feb. 28, 1:302:30 p.m. I was talking to a couple of members of the Program Committee and they are very anxious to have any suggestions for activities that you may have. Variety keeps the centre alive. That variety comes from you. Share your ideas with any member of the program committee. They need your input. North Halton Rides provides transportation for seniors and people with disabilities in north Halton. To use it call the Red Cross, 905-875-1459. Details of cost and availability are in the flyers located at the centre and at many churches. Come out to the Georgetown Seniors. Get involved! Make new friends ! Share in the good times. --By Florence Riehl, Georgetown Seniors Centre
