Message from Patty and locker room pictures

Hi all

Wow, the renovations are almost finished in our locker room! We have a new bathroom       including toilets, sinks, flooring, countertop, and taps. You won't recognize the locker room as the lockers have been repositioned and painted. It's a new fresh look and will be ready for us to use by April.

Firstly I would like to thank Laura Roberge for being our voice at the board meeting. Also, Susan Meldrum, Tom Bullen, Neil Pemberton, Pete Wangen, and Jamie for pulling this together. Thanks to John and Laura Ebbrell who donated shelving for our towels. Lastly, thanks to Barb Pemberton for keeping me up to date with the progress of the reno and the pictures you see on the Blog.

I am looking forward to seeing our new digs when I return home from Myrtle Beach and I'm sure you are too.

Locker room

Here are a few more pictures showing some of the work being done on our locker room, including clean, inviting showers, a new layout, and a towel cabinet.

The Women's Section wants to thank Susan Meldrum for her time and talents for getting colours coordinated to perfection. Barb Pemberton, who sent the pictures noted that the colours do not show up accurately on the phone camera with the lighting in the room. 

The new towel cabinet pictured below was built by John Ebbrell and donated to us by the Ebbrells. It will be placed across from the showers in the new layout in the locker room. 

I'm sure you'll agree, we can't wait to see the finished product.

Locker room reno

Our locker room is being worked on as you read this blog. Thanks to Barb Pemberton for the pictures so we can see what has been done so far - the carpet and flooring are gone, the "barn board" on the far wall was stripped off, and some paint applied! Stay tuned for more updates.

Tom Bullen (pictured here) is one of our hard working volunteers.

His co-workers are Peter Wangen and Neil Pemberton. 

Happy New Year

Good morning everyone! I hope you had wonderful Christmas and New Year celebrations with family and friends.

Below is a picture of a Big Horn sheep, that Janet Hull took next to the mountain on the 12th hole of their Cove Course at Indian Wells. Thanks for sending Janet. If anyone has golf/vacation pictures you would like to share on the blog, please send them my way.

Locker Clean Out

Management has asked the women to clean out our lockers in the event that the lockers may be spray painted during some renovation work. There is no guarantee that the belongings inside will not be damaged. Please do this as soon as possible as the work may begin anytime.
Thank you!

An uncommon sight at Dalewood

We have seen a heron or two, some turkeys occasionally, lots of geese in the spring and a few ducks, but I am not sure this particular kind of bird has visited us before:

Thanks to Joan Hayward for sending me the picture of the young swan in the pond at #8.

A reminder to RSVP to Jeanne if you wish to come to the luncheon on Dec 9, by Dec 4.
