|
|
Closure of another volunteering year. We are all getting older but we
managed to carry out many varied duties during 2013 due to the combined
efforts of all our members. Here is the final report for 2013 covering the
months of October, November & December.
|
On 6 occasions during the quarter we helped sort items delivered to
the Tisdale Salvation Army; proceeds were as usual for local
charities.
|
|
Food Bank - twice the troop ran the Tisdale food distribution centre.
|
|
Medical cars -
twice local residents were transported for medical treatment in
Saskatoon and Nipawin.
|
|
Food catering duties were carried out twice for the Ridgedale pot luck
suppers and once for the Ridgedale "Fall Supper".
|
|
17
volunteer duties were carried out at a local nursing home.
|
|
Helping Hands -
During this quarter members carried out 7 security checks on vacant
property. On 3 occasions a member assisted staff at a local junior
school helping children with reading difficulties. Our member with
musical talent once again helped entertain at various seniors centres
and care homes on 3 occasions. Home care - meals were delivered to
aged and infirm local resident 4 times. On Christmas Day a member
helped staff serve Christmas dinner at an assisted living group home.
|
|
On 9 occasions troop members collected food contributions from local
stores for the food distribution centre.
|
|
Nipawin "Sales Day" - catering and door duties carried out at the RCL
Hall.
|
|
Annual Awards were distributed during the October Troop meet.
Those who qualified for awards were:
Lance Corporal Joyce Wilson who received
the 100
Duties Award and 3 year Service Medal.
Sergeant
Wallace Hanson received the 300 Duties Award.
Senior Sergeant Annabelle Hanson received the 300 Duties Award.
DCC Shirley Metcalfe was
advanced to and bestowed a Dame Grand Commander of the Illustrious Order of Merit from Principality
of Hutt River.
Captain Theresa Ann
Vogt received the
Frontiersman of the Year Award.
(See photo's below).
|
|
Salvation Army "Christmas Kettles" - on 2 occasions during December
members of the troop "manned" this post in the Tisdale Co-op.
|
|
Remembrance Day
(11th November) - members were present at the annual service in
Tisdale and Fort Vermilion (Alberta).
|
|
Unfortunately due to terrible weather
and the fact that so many members of the troop were ill, we were
unable to hold our usual Christmas Dinner and break-up meeting this
year. We will instead hold something similar on startup in the New
Year.
|
2014 is now upon us and we look forward to our volunteering duties in
the coming months.
God Guard Thee and All Who Serve.
Yours in service.
Sir G. B. Metcalfe KGCIOM., MCM., AMM.
Chief Commissioner.
