SR Burlington’s next meeting is Wednesday March 27th at 12 noon.

The guest speaker this month is our very own Sondra Learn.  She will be sharing her stroke journey and telling us all about the play that she is directing  right here in Burlington in April. 

March of Dimes is still requiring the executives (volunteers) to wear masks.   Members are not required to do so. We will have a box of masks at the front table if you choose to wear one.

Please let me know if you can attend or not as we will be ordering our lunches from Marilu’s.   We have heard a few complaints, myself included that are having a hard time opening the sandwich containers. Brenda has spoken to Marilu’s about this.

Don’t hesitate to contact me for any questions or concerns.

Have a great week and hope to see you on the 27th.

Stroke Recovery Burlington Meeting on Wednesday February 28th at 12 Noon

Good morning everyone

Our next meeting will be on Wednesday February 28th at 12 noon.  We are excited to have the Burlington Fire Department as a guest speaker.  It’s a great idea to get an update on fire prevention what to do to escape a fire. Being a stroke survivor/ caregiver, it’s even more important to have an escape plan and know what to do & where to go in a potential life threatening situation.

Please confirm your attendance as we will once again be ordering lunches from Marilu’s.

March of Dimes has asked all executives (volunteers ) to wear masks once again.  It is not mandatory for members to wear one.  We will have mask a box of masks at the front table for anyone wishing to do so.

Have a great day.

Don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Happy New Year to Everyone

Every year at the January meeting,  we have elections for the executive board of our chapter.   Andy Westcott, chairman will introduce each executive member then introduce any new members that would like to join the executive board.  Andy will then ask all of you as chapter members to vote in the executive board for this year. 

As a stroke survivor,  it’s a very long journey of healing of both physically and mentally .  No one understands better what you are going through other than another stroke survivor.  Bertha Avalos, a stroke survivor would like to share her journey of her recovery.

Please let me know if you will be attending as we will once again  be ordering lunches from Marilu’s.    We would like to review the lunches at this time and need your opinions on what is your favourite & least favourite sandwiches, salads and deserts.  Please add your answers with your reply.

Due to the increase numbers of Covid and other respiratory illnesses,  March of Dimes has asked that all volunteers ( Executives ) to wear masks.  It is not mandatory for the chapter  members  but we  will have a box of masks at the front table if you wish to wear one.

You better bundle up this week as the temperatures with the wind chill will be in the negative double digits.
