Greetings Chilliwack Branch members!
It’s getting to be close to the end of the year! Fall has definitely set in with our usual rainy weather! Time for lots of hot soups!
Some things we have been doing include zoom calls and webinars updating us on changes to the national website, what’s going on on ‘the Hill’ and local connections.
We have just passed Remembrance Day where wreaths were laid at two cenotaphs on our behalf.
The latest news will be to congratulate Gisèle Tassé-Goodman on their election to national board chair. As a branch we look forward to working with Gisèle as we move forward with future endeavours.
We invite you to attend our upcoming Christmas event and recruitment opportunity at the Coast hotel here in Chilliwack on Tuesday Dec. 9, 2025 11 a.m. - 1 p.m. We also have an Elvis tribute performance!
Please call Kim Macleod for tickets at (604) 799-8470. Tickets are a cost to you of $20.
Finally if you require help or direction or you’d like to offer to volunteer please reach out to myself at (778) 823-5122.
Sincerely,
Carol Kayser, president and your board members, Dale Emery, Kim Macleod and Lorne Street.
