Thomas Mckegney

Thomas Mckegney is the new lunch cook in the Al Mattison Lounge on Thursdays
"Thomas spent his working life in Eastern Canada and the Prairies and moved to Vancouver in 2010 after retiring. Volunteering at Britannia is a way to get involved in the local community. He enjoys cooking as a hobby, and welcomes menu ideas from the Thursday lunch group. His other retirement activities include sailing and travelling. He spent two months in the spring of 2012 in South America, and plans to travel to Burma this winter. He'll be in Ontario this fall to welcome his second grandchild."
We wish him all the best.

Our Super Heros, Relay for Cancer

Anyone who is a cancer survivor wears a yellow t-shirt.
This years theme was SUPERHEROES so our team dressed as Wonder Woman and as you can see everyone got into the swing of things.
Our team raised almost $3000.
The relay went from Saturday 6 p.m. to 6 am  Ssunday
For entertainment there were Taiko Drummers, Belly Dancers and a band. At midnight there was was the candlelight ceremony to remember those who are fighting or have lost the battle to cancer.
A bagpiper led everyone out of the oval onto the dyke & back into the oval. It is always very moving.
Take care
June & Lee
