Meeting of December 10, 2013

Today was the annual St. Matthew's House auction.There were 24 members and six guests present. The club welcomed Barb Montesanto, Helen Massey, Lynne Morrow, Colin Reed, Norm Reed and Cindy.

As festive as the morning meeting was, there was also sadness in the room as we remembered the passing of Wayne Migus who died yesterday after a short illness.

Before the auction, President Jan indicated that Telling Tales made a $9000 donation to Early Literacy, Summer Literacy Camp and Adult Literacy. She also noted that the club was kicking off a membership campaign with more information to follow.

Shirley is celebrating a birthday today and is also selling tickets to Dundas Little theatre to help support Dundas Community Services. Tickets to 39 Steps for the January 16 presentation are available for purchase at $35 each. This special presentation includes refreshments and hor d'oevres during intermission.

Please note that the next morning meeting is not until January 7, 2014. The Christmas party is December 17 at 6:00 PM at the Dundas Museum. Please let Jessica know if you will be attending. The cost is $25 per person payable at the door.
