A $10 game fee allows participation in multiple games and attendance at the awards luncheon held Thursday, June 28, at noon.

Expansion is in the air and your opinions are required. Architectural proposals are available at the centre to view. These are initial concepts only. Members. friends, renters, users all, we welcome your opinions and suggestions. Your opinions and suggestions are required. Contact any member of our long-range planning committee or our president Monica Smith or any of our directors and Beverly Nurden, centre manager, to make your opinion known. Our committee will arrange informative presentations to you to ensure your opportunity to participate. Be a Caledon active centre booster! Now is the time not later.

We anticipate receiving acceptance of our submission for charitable status. When we do, Don Dalgleish and our fundraising committee will present proposals for review of our Caledon active senior centre program for fundraising. We know you eagerly await this primary step in our centre's longrange plan for improvement.

Our Caledon Characters made May 25 a handclapping, toe-tapping, singing, dancing, third year musical revue (We've come a long way, Baby) a highlight. Great preparation, great support and a grand presentation to a full house made it the place to be. Congratulations to Irene Stephenson and Company a great cast of "characters."
