Gearing up to celebrate at our 65th anniversary AGM!

As the hours of daylight get longer and the sun gets stronger, we can finally look forward to getting out for some socializing once again and this year the Canadian Paraplegic Association is celebrating 65 years of serving its members! For the first time in recent memory, we'll be leaving the usual premises of Toronto Rehab's Lyndhurst site for the elegant surroundings of The Granite Club at Bayview and Lawrence in Toronto. On Thursday, June 17th , CPA Ontario is pulling out all the stops with a day full of events honouring our storied history and our promising future.

Instead of the ordinary old burgers-and-dogs BBQ this year, the Annual General Meeting itself will be bookended by a Strawberry Social during member registration beforehand and a 65th anniversary reception featuring hors d'ouevres, live music and displays of the evolution of CPA through the years afterward. All of these special events are free of charge with your active CPA Ontario membership!

That evening, CPA is hosting a Gala Dinner, "Club 1945". If you are interested in purchasing tickets to this event, please contact Lise Desrochers at 416-523-2380.

Watch for your 65th anniversary AGM invitation, arriving in the April issue of Outspoken. Make sure your membership is current and if you're not sure, give me a call!
