Hello, and welcome to 2024! Another year gone in a blur of activity.
At our November AGM, our main items of business were to review our finances and elect new directors. Our finances are in great shape.
Directors are elected to two-year terms. Some continued on in their terms. Anne Bundgaard, Naomi Burkinshaw, Nicole Matheson, and Ross Snyder were re-elected. Our new directors are Sue Barter (Executive Secretary), Don Lauweryssen (Parks Improvements), and David Varga (Tree Canopy Improvement).
I’d like to thank Leanne Long and Katie McLeod for their contributions to the executive committee and continuing on as Directors at Large. Matthew Perro and Victor Olagundoye have stepped down from the board, and I’d like to thank them for their contributions as well.
Our next board meeting is January 9 at 7:15 pm. This is when we do event planning for 2024, so it’s the meeting to come to if there’s an event you’re interested in contributing to as an organizer or a volunteer, or if there is a new event you’d like to propose.
The Good Food box order deadline is January 15 for a January 24 pickup. It’s easy to donate a good food box to the pantry.
The cover photo is some of the donations received during our Help Stock the Pantry drive. A huge thank you to the people who have contributed. Many organizations do a push for food donations in the run up to Christmas and provide hampers, but the need is there year-round. Please consider donating to our pantry during the winter months when the shelves often run a little bare.
Keith and Jennifer
President and 1st VP
