Woodcreek Seniors held their annual Christmas Luncheon on December 12, 2023, at the Carriage House Inn. The 44 people in attendance enjoyed the buffet and activities. As per past years, the Woodcreek Knitting group donated an Afghan for the fundraising raffle. The other raffle items were a wooden serving dish from a craft sale vendor, and a box of Belgian chocolates. The Knitting Group also gave $500 to the Seniors Group. Gift certificates were awarded to two members for their contributions during the year – Gloria Hughes for creating our greeting cards, and Mary Burrell for taking pictures of our activities. Thanks to the Knitting Group and the two members for their continued support and hard work.

Special thanks go to the following community members and businesses for their donations for the door prizes at the luncheon: Dan McLean, Ward 13 Councillor, Carriage House, Shoppers Drug Mart, Oakridge Co-Op, Woodbine Safeway, and Tim Horton’s – Woodbine and Braeside. The Woodcreek Seniors greatly appreciate the continued support from these donors.

The Woodcreek Seniors’ meetings are scheduled for the first and third Tuesday of each month and begin at 9:30 am. We are extending an invitation to seniors in the community to attend one of our meetings. Come and meet us, have a coffee, and see what the group can offer. We welcome all seniors to our group.
