Since last reporting, St. Walburg Canadian Royal Purple Society has been active. They helped finance the youth curling bonspiel in town, assisted a family in need, contributed to the Elmhurst Jack Rabbit Ski Club and gave a sizeable amount to the Brain Injury Appeal.
On another note, they have lost two members and yet there are still no applications for membership. What can they do to motivate ladies to join? They cannot keep donating if they do not have the manpower for fundraising.
Ladies of the area, keep Saturday, May 2 open. This is the annual Ladies鈥� Night Out date and the committee is ensuring a good time. Entertainment will be Robyn Kelly and an Elvis impersonator.
