President’s Message: Sharon Miller

I am honored and delighted to be the President of this wonderful Club that has been in existence since 1910. Thus 2021 begins our 111th year! The Club has never closed but this year, due to the pandemic we are operating in a different format.

We are offering Free virtual speakers beginning March 11 2021 on the Zoom platform. Please check the February newsletter on the Home page of the website for specific details.

The Women’s Canadian Club Board is also continuing its community involvement. We are proud to have been one of the collectors in the latest can tab collection of 2.5 tons of aluminum . This amazing accomplishment will purchase the ’50th’ wheelchair. Also, we supported My Sister’s Place warm clothing drive through information posted on our Facebook page.

Youth Focus committee , chaired by Cathy Cave gave Emerging Leader Awards of $250 each to four grade 10 and 11 students selected by the TVDSB, the Catholic DSB and Blyth Academy.

The Board has openings for members to be nominated for various committees. For example: the Publicity, Speakers, and Technology committees are actively involved during this pandemic in locating interesting Canadian speakers and in providing an excellent virtual platform for the presentations. Thus, more members would be very much appreciated!

Please contact Eleanor Leatham, Nominating Committee Chair at wccldnpresident@gmail.com if you are interested in being nominated .

I enjoy hearing from you! Email me at wccldnpresident@gmail.com if you have questions and/or suggestions for our Women’s Canadian Club London.
