Aurora Seniors Centre Annual Spring Sale is coming soon!<\/em>
\nThe Aurora Seniors\u2019 Centre\u2019s Annual Spring Sale featuring vendors, crafts, white elephant and diamond treasures, is one of the most anticipated and exciting events of the year.
\nIt is coming up soon on Saturday, April 30, so mark your calendar now.
\nIf you are spring cleaning, downsizing or just have a donation, no matter how large or small, please keep us in mind. Your donations in the past have made this annual event a huge success. (You have to pronounce the word \u201cHUGE\u201d like Donald Trump to get the full effect.)
\nYou can drop off your donations at the Aurora Seniors\u2019 Centre located at 90 John West Way (next to Town Hall) on Thursday April 28, or Friday April 29, between the hours of 9 \u2013 4. (Most donations are acceptable but please no VHS tapes, magazines, computer books nor clothing). Should you wish to book space as a vendor, please contact the Centre directly.<\/p>\n

A Time to Remember<\/em>
\nThis month, the Aurora Seniors\u2019 Centre held its annual \u201cTime to Remember\u201d Memorial service officiated by Reverend Terry Weller. Music was provided by the Evergreen Choir under the direction of Dr. Richard Heinzle accompanied on the piano by Hadara Jacoby. We also enjoyed the music provided by the junior harpist, Sebastian Gobbels. We honoured the lives, contributions and passing of the following individuals: Tony Catania, Brigid Cummins, Nell Dalton, Alan Davie, Dick Douglas, Frankie Gourlay, George Hamann, Harry Libby, Jim Liddy, Gerald McFarlane, Jean Middleton, Olwen Morgan, Cory Richardson, Bob Smith, June Thompson, Nora May Tschumi, Jack Usher, Maribeth Wansbrough and Iris Whiting. They are missed.<\/p>\n

Computer Club<\/em>
\nThe computer club is in full swing. This is one my least favourite times: tax time! If you have considered using tax software on your PC and want to learn more about it and want to ask questions of our tax expert, Robert York, book some time to attend the Tuesday meetings, 10 to 11 a.m. The computer club continues to cover topics of interest to ASA members.<\/p>\n

Membership Renewal<\/em>
\nIf you have not already done so, please be reminded that all Aurora Seniors Association members must renew their membership for the calendar year 2016. Don\u2019t miss out on all the Aurora Seniors\u2019 Centre has to offer!<\/p>\n

Walking Group<\/em>
\nIt has been a pretty mild winter (knock on wood!), so that reminds me of our energetic Wednesday morning walking group.
\nWalks are held on Wednesday mornings and last about an hour in length. Canes or walking sticks are optional. Most walks depart from the Sheppard\u2019s Bush parking lot as this is the most used and well maintained path in the winter so it tends to be safer and in better condition for our walks. When weather permits we try other routes such as the route from Sheppard\u2019s Bush to the Vandorf Sideroad Trail. We try not to walk if the weather gets too icy or if weather does not permit for comfort and safety. We hope to return with as many people as depart!
\nDouble check with the reception desk at the ASC (905-726-4767) early any Wednesday morning to confirm your involvement. We are always looking for eager members to walk with us so come on outside! Join us!
\nSo long for now, I try not to think too far ahead because \u201cpre-meditated\u201d gets thrown around loosely in court!
\nFor more information on the Aurora Seniors’ Centre and all it has to offer, drop by 90 John West Way, visit the web site www.auroraseniors.ca, email auroraseniors@rogers.com or call 905-726-4767 between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday to Friday.<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
