RETIREES’ CLUB OF L.U. 105, HAMILTON, ON — Hello, everyone! We hope all of you enjoyed the summer, and here’s hoping the fall months may grant us a few more sunny, warm days.
A great time was had by all at the May 5 dinner and dance at Michelangelo’s. We shared dinner with locals from Toronto, Kitchener and Niagara Falls.
We also enjoyed our June 7 outing to the Grand River Raceway & Casino.
Our annual barbecue, held June 21 at the hall, was a huge hit. We enjoyed hamburgers and sausages with all the fixings and collected 400 pounds of nonperishable food items for Neighbour to Neighbour. Way to go, retiree members — and thank you so much for your support!
The executive board has planned a number of fall events:
- Fish fry and karaoke, Sept. 19 (at the union hall).
- Mandarin, Burlington, Oct. 3.
- Octoberfest, Oct. 10; Local 804, Kitchener (transportation provided).
- Old-fashioned cookout, Oct. 17 (at the union hall).
- Cairncroft, Nov. 5-7; Niagara Falls.
- Christmas dinner and dance, Nov. 24; Local 353, Toronto (transportation provided).
- White Christmas, Dec. 4; St. Jacob’s (lunch and transportation included).
- Christmas dinner and dance, Dec. 8; Michelangelo’s.
All of the events we enjoy are made possible by our hard-working local members and executive board, past and present. We are so proud and fortunate to be a part of your team. Our sincere, heartfelt thanks to all of you!
Euchre begins Mon., Sept. 9.
