March Updates
March 24, 2025
Finally the snow is retreating and the temperatures are beginning to reach spring-like levels.
As we come to this time of renewal in nature, so it is with the Barrhaven Seniors' Council. The new Executive and Board have been tweaked and are ready to provide Programs and Services for 2025. I ask that you give them your full support as they take over the reigns.
At the tabs above are the first drafts of:
- the "Spring 2025 Newsletter;" and
- activity calendars for April, May andJune.
A notice for Special Events on April 3rd and 29th at VIV A Barrhaven is posted under both Newsletters and Calendars.
Watch emails for updates over the next few weeks as more events may be added by your Interim President Designate, Louise Chenier-Dalonzo.
As of April, emails to thie barrhavenseniors@gmail.com account will be responded to by Interim President Designate Louise.
Marilyn and I bid you - and Ottawa - farewell in May as we move to the Maritimes, well before our anticipated departure date in the fall.
Best wishes to you all
