Spring Yard Clean-up Thank-you
A big THANK-YOU to all who helped with the Spring Yard Clean-up which took place on Thursday, May 21st. Your help was greatly appreciated!
A Thank-you from Brooksong Retreat & Cancer Support Centre
We are writing to offer our thanks for your support of Brooksong Retreat and Cancer Support Centre. We are so grateful for such a wonderful night of music and the support of Trinity United Church and Vintages! With your support, more people living with cancer and their caregivers can step away from the demands of treatment and into a loving community where they are held, cared for, and reminded that they do not have to face cancer alone. We’d love to welcome you to the centre for a visit and share the impact your generosity makes.
Warm Thanks, Barb Smith-Morrison and the Brooksong Team.

Let myself (Bobcaygeon) or Marion Mackenzie (Providence) know if you would like to come. Hope to see you there.
Faithfully, Kim Draper

ATTENTION CHAT GROUP!
Our "CHAT" group now meets on the 2nd Tuesday of each month at 10:00 a.m. in the Friendship Room. Only 3 of us turned up on May 12th, but we had over an hour of lively and insightful discussions about life, childhood, and more. If you'd like to chat about our world, your experiences, or life-changing events, come and join the conversation. Don't be shy...it's actually quite therapeutic at times!
LIBRARY
We have many new books and we have added puzzles! To borrow a book or a puzzle, take the card out of the book pocket, sign your name, add date and put the card in the white basket on the tea table in the Friendship Room. When you return the book, simply put the book in the white basket.
Thank-you, Sue Pepper
