Jan. Report 2001
My second year as Vice President has been a busy and varied one. I enjoyed all the
Constituency and District meetings that I attended. The Peace River area is beautiful and
the ladies were so kind and friendly. Their crafts were outstanding. I then went to Viking
and Manvilie where yet again the members proved that we truly are connected to each
other no matter what or who we are. I was sorry I was not able to get to Ohatttin but
know that you understood. The meeting at the Cottonwood hall was lively 1 attended
both District 4 & 5 Workshops, the May convention as well as the FWIC convention in
Brandon. Glendale celebrated their 75*. Anniversary with a very good program and it
was nice to see so many neighbors and friends attend. In the fall I went to Ottawa to
attend a Volunteer Initiative program that our Federal government is working on. Since
our Sept. meeting, I went to a tourism trade fair with District 5 Director, Darlene Hallett
to check on venues for a national convention. Darlene Wick's had a meeting in
Lethbridge for her constituency Conveners and I presented an overview of our District.
The opening of our new office in Wetaskiwin was well attended. Of course I attended the
executive and councils meeting during the year. 1 am looking forward to the rest of this
year and our convention In Camrose as we all share in working for Home and Country.
