spring is here!

That was quite the winter! We're envious of those of you who escaped it and headed south for the bulk of the winter. Looks like most of our snowbirds have now flown north and are back with us in Matlock and Dunnottar. Welcome home!

Your board of directors have been busy making plans for the upcoming Annual General Meeting, which will be held on Sunday, May 1st at 3 pm. Our constitution and by-laws have recently been amended to state that our AGM will hereby be held annually on the first Sunday of May, so please mark your calendars accordingly.

We hope you'll join us. Following the meeting, there will be a complimentary cold plate meal for all members in good standing. Guests are welcome, and guests can purchase a meal for $5.

As we'll be preparing the meal ourselves, we'll require an RSVP by April 21st. Please e-mail our secretary, Georgeanne Schau at georgeanneschau9@gmail.com or our president, Bev Stevens at 389-4340 or e-mail stevensb@mts.net to let them know you'll be joining us.

At the meeting, we'll be giving a full report of the club's happenings over the past year. We will also be looking for volunteers to help with various activities and members to step forward and take on board positions. It's fun and rewarding to serve your community. Please help us keep the MRC a dynamic and active place to be. We can only do it with YOUR help.

Other news:

* The MRC received a Poppy Appreciation Award from the Winnipeg Beach Legion for our 2010 poppy campaign.

* There will be no bingo on Friday, April 22nd as it is Good Friday.

* Our traditional Canada Day dinner will be moved up to 4:30 pm to facilitate bingo, as July 1st is on a Friday this year.

That's all the news for now. Stay tuned to the blog (and please subscribe) to ensure you hear all the updates and don't miss any fun events.

See you on Sunday, May 1st for the Annual General Meeting & election of the 2011-2012 Board of Directors.
