Presidents Message

What a fast year this has been! Some new members have joined and a few old members have returned to the LAS. It is great to see the membership growing. We’re all able to draw from each others experiences.

The CAOAC convention was held at Sheridan College. It was lots of fun. A chance to see old friends and meet some new ones. We had a few adventures with getting to know the guest speakers and sharing our experiences with them.

The guest speaker for May was Dorothy Reimer and she did a very informative talk on plants. We had a lot of comments about how much people enjoyed Dorothy’s talk, and they learned a lot. We were all able to bid on the plants that she brought in to show us. The members who got them, were very pleased with their purchases.

There will be no jar show for June, as this is our awards night. Elections will be held. If anyone is interested in a position on the executive, please let it be known. Don’t forget to bring something good to eat, for our last pot-luck of the year. We do have some members with allergies. If you feel that you may have something in your dish that may give another member a reaction, please make a note to put with it. (Wheat and shellfish are two such allergies.)

The auction will be there as always. We ask that you put your initials on any bag you put up for auction to make it easy to identify.

We are still making plans for the LAS summer BBQ. It will be held on Sunday July 18th in Dorchester at the Gregg household, 4530 Catherine Street, in Dorchester. We have the pool to enjoy and a big back yard to play games in. The executive will be held prior to the BBQ. It would be appreciated if anyone attending, brings something to share such as a dessert or a salad. When you bring a dish, please be aware of allergies and remember to cut squares, etc and bring a serving utensil. It makes it easier for serving and leaves no clean up for the host.
