The Feb. 12 meeting of Rivers 50+ Club was called to order with greetings from president Ken Young; 22 members sang O Canada.

The suggestion from last month that a donation to Rolling River Festival of Arts be an annual expense without need of motion, was accepted; we will give $50.

Games are continuing. Seven members went floor curling at Birtle. Pool games are at 1 p.m. on Wednesdays.

Trouble With the Curve, a Clint Eastwood and Amy Adams movie, was shown Feb. 13. Our next movie day is March 6.  

Donating cookies for Riverdale Personal Care Home on Feb. 24 are Bob MacDonald and Doreen Bate. Donating cookies for the home on March  31 are Myrtle Wooldridge and McGee Smith.

Our meetings are not lengthy, so the suggestion was made that following our meeting and lunch, members stay and play games. Ken is looking into having a guest speaker at the March 26 meeting.

It was mentioned that more care needs to be taken when we lock the back door.

Several members were seated at a Valentine theme decorated table for birthdays/anniversaries and were served cake, ice-cream and coffee.

Meeting closed with members singing God Save the Queen.
