Travel News
We are about a month away from the August 8th trip to the St. Jacobs market and off to see Kiss Me, Kate. Full payment will be required at the July general meeting this Tuesday, July 9th.
We also need at least ten more people to go on this trip. Our count has to be sent to the travel agency by Wednesday. So please make sure to see us and sign up. We hate to have to cancel another trip.
If you are thinking of going, please call one of us so your name is on the list, and we can have the forms ready for you.

Helmut Straeche
Dennis Vaillancourt has been visiting Helmut in the hospital for the past few weeks. He was taken in as he was having trouble swallowing.
Age Friendly Community Sr Expo
The Age-Friendly Community Expo for Seniors was a huge success, with a wealth of information. With 670 guests in attendance, it topped last year’s number.
Chair Yoga
Our Sonia also teaches Yoga at Woodland Beach every Saturday in the summer from 9 to 10 a.m. for $15.00 each session. We’ve got ourselves a great teacher.
We didn’t get a great response to our Gentle Yoga. Sonia will speak to those who attend Chair Yoga tomorrow at 11:30 to see if you would like to do Chair Yoga for the next five weeks for $37.50. She will also incorporate Gentle Yoga poses for those who are further along.

Costumes for our Murder Mystery
Hi Members,
If anyone has a man’s coverall and an old-fashioned camera that you hang around your neck and wouldn’t mind lending to one of our members for our Murder Mystery next Thursday, it would be greatly appreciated. Please bring it to the Club before next Wednesday or email us at info@bayshoreseniors.ca, and we can pick it up.
Thank you for your anticipated response.

Shuffleboard’s end-of-season Luncheon
Dee and Gord Colton put on an excellent end-of-season luncheon Friday, June 14th, for their Shuffleboard group, to which Lynn and I were invited. They had it catered by Food Land, and the sandwiches, fruit, and cheese trays were excellent. A few of the activity members brought homemade desserts, and I finally got to taste not one but two of Helen’s delicious butter tarts with raisins. They, indeed, are scrumptious. Everything was terrific, along with the joy of spending time together before everyone took off for a safe and happy summer.

BBQ Fundraiser at Bay Shore
The correct month for the BBQ is Thursday, July 18th. I’m glad to see that a number of you read the newsletter.
Now’s the time to buy your tickets to our BBQ fundraiser. Drop into the Club during our new summer hours, or join us at the July 9th General Meeting and purchase your ticket for our Oktoberfest Sausage or Smoked Pork Chop dinner, roasted potatoes, cole slaw, Caesar salad, and sherbet for dessert.
We hope to take advantage of this beautiful weather and have our cocktails (yes, the Bar will be open) and games outside. Then, we will move inside for dinner.
