YO!
Yo Wiksas I hope you all have very nice weekend with your family or friends. Happy Easter! The Elders will be having their Easter Party Tuesday April 22, 2014 @ 12pm. We will have some lunch and have an Easter Egg hunt. Then we will watch a nice movie. We will be catering for Trust on Thursday April 24, 2014 starting at 9am. For those of you that plan on coming on the Elder's Adventures this summer, I urge you to lend a hand now in helping fundraise. Let's all work together shall we? :) Good Food Box Friday April 25, 2014. Please submit your payment to Lucy Hemphill or Bernadine Clayton at the front desk. Be sure to write your name down on the list please.

The Elders will continue with their usual activities. We have had a great turn out for the past Elders Days. Let's keep it up! We will be having a nurse from the hospital, Anita Brennen, come and work with the Elders. She can do exercises to get you moving & she can also give us the information we need on healthy lifestyles. Right now I have been quite busy with the Annual report due for the Trust meeting next week. I will also submit the Elders Proposal o renew our funding. Our only one that was suppose to have been for a year, has lasted us 4! WOOHOO! Food harvesting is the number one goal right now. Along with healthy eating habits and exercise. We received some herring eggs from Heather Walkus a few months ago & Patti Seaweed a couple of weeks ago. THANK YOU SO MUCH! The Elders really enjoyed it. The Elder's Council has been meeting on a weekly basis. They have had some causes and concerns brought to their attention. They intend to deal with them as Chief & Council. Please remember that you, the Elders, nominated and voted for the persons on Elder's Council. They have been put into this position by you. They are doing a very wonderful job. It is a lot of hard work and at times, can be stressful. Please be kind :) That's a wrap folks :D
