SKATING ON MONDAYS
Monday morning skating started this week. Each week a group is organized to go skating, usually outdoors but indoors if the weather is bad.
Car pooling is available and all are welcome. Last Monday we went to the outdoor skating path at the bottom of Kipling Ave and skated for about an hour.
Please contact Kathy Andres (905-820-0792), if you would like to be included on the emailing list.
WOMEN FOR WOMEN

We will start our evening with coffee/tea/hot chocolate & dessert (donations welcome). Then we will "light up the dark" and indulge in a little pampering by making candle holders, scented bath salts and hot cocoa mix as little treats for ourselves or for others. The
