I thank you once again for the delightful honor you have bestowed upon me by re-electing me as your president for another term. This year, my focus will be to encourage our youth and young adults to actively participate within our association. I will need help from all the parents to encourage your children to get involved. Please encourage all those who are 18 years and older to apply for membership. I strongly encourage all non-active young adult members to please step forward and do your part in offering your valuable ideas and attend our many different events. You should all feel proud of this wonderful association, as without you, there is little hope or future for this club. With your continued co-operation in attending the many fun-filled, culture enriched events planned for this year, we hope to grow in numbers. Please watch out for our next email outlining my new committee and our calendar of events. Mark your calendars off! Once again thank you for the extraordinary confidence which you have placed in me. I hope to continue in proving myself worthy of that confidence. Let’s celebrate Easter with joy and peace in our hearts. Happy Easter to you and your family! Dev bhorem khorum / Thank you, Blanche Da Costa QGA President 450-689-7052 [email protected] |
