President Elvin Dorscher introduced our guest speaker: Connie Serrant of Five Star Seniors Relocators Inc. - “Stress-Free Moving for Seniors.” Her presentation was most informative and will be helpful in planning “our next move.” Elvin thanked Connie and members expressed their appreciation for the suggestions she offered.
At 1:20 PM Pres. Elvin declared the AGM open. He welcomed three guests; advised that Jean-Paul Maillot is in hospital; and also Colleen Dorscher.
Minutes of the November 18, 2015 AGM were approved as previously circulated. Moved by Cec Clark/Seconded by Bill Andreitz. CARRIED
Pres. Elvin: No results from our Sept. Casino Fund Raiser – probably early next year.
Bill Andreitz, Casino Chair, stated our next casino will be in April/May/June 2018. We have requested the Blackfoot Cash Casino again. Drumheller H2HSS supported us by staffing 11 of the 36 positions required. Their share of proceeds will be 30.5%. Because they are an affiliate to our society, they cannot book their own casino. Our casino funds will fund hospital areas recommended by Calgary Health Trust. Drumheller usually supports the Drumheller hospital.
