Action Now held its annual meeting March 19. A moment of silence was observed for seven members who have passed away in the past year. All executive was returned by acclamation: Margaret Kemp as president, Ruth Bilanski as secretary and Lucille Shutra as treasurer. We will be without a vice-president this year as there was no one willing to take on this position. After some discussion it was decided to carry on with hall rentals with rent of $75 to members and $100 for non-members. The yearly meeting was adjourned and the monthly meeting was held.
A cribbage tournament will be held April 27 at 1:30 p.m.
A birthday potluck lunch was held April 11 at noon. Action Now funds supplied the hams that where prepared by members. President Margaret welcomed everyone with aging humour. Ruth said grace and we sat down to happy birthday sang by all to March birthday members Paul Bilanski, Margaret Fedun, Faye Taylor and Darlene Keall and to April members, Stella Ewanchuck, Pat Chapman and Faye Goll. Missing were Ruth St. Marie, Flora Sample and Theo Omelchenko. Thanks to everyone for all their salads and other goodies, also the ladies who make that delicious lemon dessert.  Afterwards we listened to some humour from Marcel Lacoursiere and Ruth Bilanski, then we had an afternoon of fun and Kaiser. Our next potluck lunch will be in June. See you there. Have a lovely spring.
