WOODBEND PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE WINTER 2011/2012: The end of November brings us into full fledge snow and cool, brisk weather. Some of our snow bird community members and friends have left for the warmer parts. The deer and the squirrels are licking out the bird feeders, and we have all shovelled at least once. It is time to work on our Christmas cards, shopping and baking. Our October Steak and Comedy night was an excellent event. Many thanks to Helen and her committee for organizing that function. This newsletter also gives you information on play school, Zumba classes on Wednesdays and the Total Body Workout on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The Executive and Board of Directors of Woodbend Community Society wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Healthy and Happy New Year. Yvette Pedersen President
