Sunshine Club Hosts Mid-Year Membership Meeting

To update the general membership of significant activities and the Senior Citizens Sunshine Club of Vegreville (SCSCV)
Board’s decisions since the 2023 Annual General Meeting, the SCSCV presented their Mid-Year Membership Meeting on September 20.
At the present time, SCSCV has 183 members. President Dwayne Hlady chaired this meeting where he mentioned that the theme was they need more input from the members and more volunteers to help out.
“Over the summer, we have been keeping busy. We are affected by the prices at the store going up a lot. So, we have to take and reevaluate our cost structure for everything.”
Chair for Facility Committee Stacy Mynzak gave the update on the HVAC Unit. “We have no time line for the installation of the HVAC Unit that will service the ‘B’ Room, Lounge and Pool Room.
I have moved the signs outside. One sign has been cemented in and the other is on the trailer on cement blocks.
I put four D posts around the air intake unit on the outside of the building and they were cemented in. This was only to comply with the insurance company so that people would not drive into the air unit.
There are many projects that will be ongoing to update this building and do upgrades from fixtures to flooring. All this takes time and resources.
Chair for Members Activities and Education Marlene Roth mentioned that the crib players have already started. “This seems to be doing well. Whist will began soon.
The floor curlers helped with the expense of sanding and oiling of the curling rocks by helping out at a hot-dog sale at the Co-op. The curlers have increased in numbers which is nice. They try to have two bonspiels in a season.
The pool room seems to be working okay; it is enjoyed mostly by the regulars. They are hoping there are more people that will get interested in playing pool in the future.
There are books in the lounge if anyone is interested.”
