Dear Durham North Members,
Hope all of you are coping during these challenging times. We are not sure what next year holds with regards to our Luncheons, Monthly outings, and all the other interesting fun things we do when we get together. So your executive will continue preparing for a return to a semblance of normal.
We have decided to get an early start on our membership drive this year. Our membership year actually runs from August 31, 2020 to September 1, 2021. So we are letting our members know that we are open to having our membership registration begin at your earliest convenience.
A reminder to all those who presently have an RWTO/OERO Insurance plan, you must be a paid up member in order to remain in good standing with the insurance company. If you would like to enroll in the RWTO/OERO Insurance plans or you wish information about the plans, you can contact me for a brochure.
This year, we are going to ask our Durham North Members to pay their membership fee of $40.00 in one of 2 ways:1)directly by mail to our treasurer, Connie Dunlop or 2) drop your payment off at your closest executive member’s home. If you retired before 1980 your yearly membership fee is $15.00
Please forward your cheques to Connie Dunlop at ….35 Grant Drive, Oakwood Ontario K0M2M0… Cheques are made out to RWTO- Durham North.
If you have any questions regarding your payment, please email Connie Dunlop, <connie_dunlop@hotmail.com> Or phone her at 705 953 9693.
Thank you for joining this great organization.
Stay healthy and safe!
Sincerely
Marie Geelen
