Eikenhof Women’s Institute celebrates 66 years
“I’m very proud of my committee members for being such caring people and thank them for everything they do. To all the members who provide the delicious teas each month, huge thanks,” said Joy.
THE annual general meeting of the Eikenhof Women’s Institute (WI) group, which coincided with its 66th birthday, was held on April 11.
The meeting was opened with prayer, with the memorial candle lit in remembrance of those members who had passed since the last AGM.
Next, group president Joy Boswell presented her report, which included a month-by-month account of the meetings held throughout the year.
Patricia Leech, treasurer, gave her report and said the group most definitely needed some new members, which would increase the WI’s financial status. Presently there are 28 members, with an average of 22 attending each meeting.
“I’m very proud of my committee members for being such caring people and thank them for everything they do. To all the members who provide the delicious teas each month, huge thanks,” said Joy.
Committee members voted in for the next 12 months are Joy Boswell, Patricia Leech, Julie Board, Yvonne Fagan, Bronwyn Du Plessis, Marjorie Lattimer, Evelyn Onderstal and Jean Ross.
The next WI meeting will take place on Wednesday, May 9, at 9.30am at St Andrew’s Church hall, Burger Street, Suideroord. If you are interested in attending a meeting or would like some more information on the group, please phone Joy on 084 526 5857.
