From The President's Desk

May is upon us and on the 22nd of the month we wind up our year's activities with our Wine and Cheese Party. Please bring items for the silent auction with you to the party. We will begin with a very short business session and then it is on to the party!!

TRAVEL CARDS
We now have a limited number of these available for W.O.A. members only upon request. Should you wish one please inform our President, Dave Page at 775-2175 and he will arrange to supply you with a certified copy.

ELECTION OF OFFICERS
The election of officers was conducted at the annual meeting in April. You will note that at this writing the position of secretary for the upcoming term is vacant. It cannot be stressed enough how important is to have all positions on the executive committee filled. If you are able and willing to volunteer, please do contact one of the executive committee members listed on the back page of this newsletter.

SHEELAH ZAPH
At our chapter meeting in September, Sheelah Zapf, District Services Representative, Prairie Region, United Ostomy Association of Canada will be visiting us. Some of you may remember Sheelah. She last visited us back in the eighties. Sheelah's visit will give all the opportunity to meet and talk with someone who has many years experience in the ostomy world at not only the local level ( long-time President of the Edmonton chapter) but also at the regional, national and international levels.

I write this on May 11, and it looks like the weather has finally turned the corner. Summer will soon be upon us. I hope your summer activities will be most enjoyable and fulfilling.

First though, see you at the wine and cheese party on May 22!!!

Dave Page
