Retired Women Teachers’ Association (RWTA)

RWTA Celebrates the Festive Season

The Retired Women Teachers’ Association’s December 8, 2022, luncheon, held at the Masonic Centre in Winnipeg for members and guests, sparkled with fun, fellowship and good food. Mrs. Claus (Louise Burton) dropped by to welcome everyone and share oranges and conversation. Everyone enjoyed the entertainment “Two by Two”. The foursome played a variety of instruments-Tom Lurvey (guitar, banjo, fipple flute, vocal), Linda Lurvey (folk harp, fipple flute, percussion, vocal), Sandy McKenzie (percussion, fipple flute, vocal) and Mark McLearon (fiddle, fipple flute and vocal). Their repertoire of Celtic and English traditional folk music included historic melodies and carols coupled with energetic dance, soothing harp tunes and engaging songs. By all account RWTA’s December luncheon was a joyful experience.

RWTA is looking forward to our next luncheons which will be held on February 23, 2023, and April 20, 2023, at the Masonic Centre. Call our lunch coordinator, Lynda Tunny (204-782 2651) if you are interested in attending. All retired women teachers are welcome.
