There are still a few members who havent re- newed their membership for 2007. The membership committee members thank everyone who has already done so as it saves them a lot of time making phone calls reminding people. We certainly cant blame the weather for stopping us get- ting out and about. Another reason to renew quickly is your name was pulled from the 50/50 drum on January 2 if you werent a paid-up member. There is always some- thing interesting happening at the Centre, whether it is improving yourself by exercise, by participating in Tai Chi, hiking, line danc- ing, yoga, carpet bowling, or shuffleboard. Maybe you would enjoy the social side of things with the Fri- day lunches, bingo, cards, and monthly dinners. We have informative speakers frequently to inform us (or inspire us). Plus we have the book club art class, and the wine club. The wine club members join together and made wine as a group and swap some of the dif- ferent wines they make. If you have time on your hands, and would like to do something worthwhile, the different committees are al- ways looking for additional help. It needs new people with new ideas to make exciting things happen. The hiking club would like to see a return to some winter weather; at least you can enjoy hiking on a lovely, crisp, snowy day. There has been so much rain this winter that quite a few Friday hikes have had to be cancelled, a rarity for them. The next evening eu- chre will be on Wednesday, January 17 at 7:15p.m. There will be prizes and a light lunch. Everyone is welcome. At the Thurs- day afternoon bid euchre I understand May Hoare and Chris Robertson had Mooners. There will be a new news- letter out shortly, and all our programs will be listed in it, with a calendar of events for February and March. Pat Frizzell asked me to mention that now the Good Food Boxes are being pack- aged at Georgetowns new satellite packaging station, they will be delivered to the Centre on the fourth Tuesday of each month in future. Pick up times are extended a little and are now 1p.m. 4p.m. For more information phone Pat 519- 853-2021. This is the last week for picking up your ticket for the Chinese dinner. Cut-off date is Monday, January 15. The dinner is on Friday, January 19 at 6p.m. Doors will open at 5:45p.m. Come on out and help celebrate the Year of the Pig. Dont forget the Birthday Tea on Tuesday, January 16 at 2p.m. We will be celebrating birthdays of everyone who was born in either December or Janu- ary. The Art Club is restart- ing on January 24 after a little break and are looking forward to refining their techniques under the tu- telage of Maria Sallay, a gifted local artist. I can see the improvement myself when I see some of the lat- est paintings created by the members. Dont forget to check out the catalogue from Maple Lodge Farms. You can place your orders at the front desk for the delivery of their excellent chicken products. Orders must be placed and paid for by the end of Janu- ary for pick up on Feb. 10. After all the spring-like weather the travel commit- tee are thinking Spring in March and planning a trip to the Convention Centre in Toronto to see Canada Blooms. Always a great way to get rid of the winter blahs. Another trip planned is to Guelphs River Run Centre to see the Royal City Ambassadors towards the end of March. If you are in- terested pop in on a Monday or Friday morning, and find out what else the travel desk has planned. On a final note, the annual general meeting will be on Tuesday, February 27. We hope to see a good crowd on that day, as it is your Centre, and you must show an interest in it to make it successful. The next trip to Rama is Wednesday, Jan 31. Two men who visited several social services offices in Acton on Friday afternoon are wanted in connection with the theft of a wallet and $35 cash from a purse of a staff member of Links2Care on Mill Street. The suspects first asked to use the washroom at mental health offices in the old Town Hall on Willow Street, and then went to the Links2Care (formerly Halton Hills Community 370-374 Queen Street East Acton Market Place Plaza 519-853-0502 Support and Information) office where they told staff they were waiting for someone. The men, confronted by staff in an office, ran along Mill Street to Willow Street where they jumped into a car and sped off. The car is a four-door, grey/blue Oldsmo- bile or Buick. Both men are white, in their early 20s with light brown hair. One man has a brown goatee. Wallet stolen from Links2Care
