Twenty-two seniors shared lunch with the United Senior Citizens of Ontario (U.S.C.O.) Zone representative, Peggy Graham on May 1st. Placemats and buttons were supplied by the Canada 150th committee.
Virgil Garrett showed slides of early members of the Sharbot Lake 39'ers plus his nine grandfather clocks in his home, which is open for anyone to visit. Memorabilia was also on display including the club's photo album and the Zealand Women's Institute album provided by June Kerr. Many of the same members were in both clubs in the early years. Both albums are on display at the library.
Virgil presented guests with honey. The seniors were invited to sign up for a bus trip into Ottawa on May 30th for the Tulip Festival which is showcasing the red and white 150th anniversary tulips from Holland.
Our next meeting is June 6th at noon at the telephone office and anyone aged 50 or over is welcome to attend.
