3 PRESIDENT S MESSAGE Our Annual General Meeting and Luncheon will take place on Monday, May 3 rd at the Country Club of the Hamptons. This luncheon is a great opportunity to visit with friends, chat about activities of the past year as well as look ahead to the next year with the election of the executive. The Hamptons is a superb location for this meeting. They have a reputation for providing superior service and gourmet dining. Please plan to attend. I look forward to seeing you all there. The website has been a great success. We have received excellent feedback and everyone seems to really enjoy all the information and the picture gallery. Due to the huge increase in postage and production costs, starting in the Fall 2004, the newsletter will be available on the website and will only be mailed out upon request. This will result in substantial savings for our club. Everyone will be notified by when a newsletter is being posted on the website. It has been an honour to serve as your club president this year and I look forward to my continued association with PEGG Wives. Thank you for all your support. It is very much appreciated. Kathy Litvinchuk PAST PRESIDENT S REPORT This is my last message as my term is nearly over. It has been a rewarding three years. I learned a lot and have come to know many more of our club members. More than ever I feel that this is a wonderful club with a great group of ladies. I hope our club continues for many more years. During the last two months I have sent cards to the following: A get well card to Joyce Mychaluk who had knee surgery, to Kari Holstein whose father passed away, and a cheer you card to Beverly Anderson followed by a sympathy card as Roy Anderson passed away on Feb. 27 th. A donation was sent to the Alberta Cancer Foundation in his memory. I hope to see you all at the spring lunch and the AGM. Anne Kostyniuk.
