Let's try another games day this month to get everyone involved and having some fun! We'll do two tuths and a Lie to see how well we know each other and to perhaps learn something new and fun you haven't realize about each other. Instructions: Ask all players to arrange themselves in a circle. Instruct each player to think of three statements about themselves. Two must be true statements, and one must be false. For each person, he or she shares the three statements (in any order) to the group. The goal of the icebreaker game is to determine which statement is false. The group votes on which one they feel is a lie, and at the end of each round, the person reveals which one was the lie. Look forward in seeing everyone there.

For this coming Friday's meeting - we're excited to do a cheque presentation with Kristy James - CEO of the Burnaby Hospital Foundation. She'll also do a short talk about the foundation and where the money will be used for what. A short bio of Kristy James: Kristy began her career in the not-for-profit sector at Lions Gate Hospital Foundation where she progressed to Director of Donor Relations over a course of nine years. Her success led to a role as Executive Director with Cystic Fibrosis Canada, and most recently, Chief Executive Officer with Variety – the Children’s Charity in Burnaby. Kristy's list of experience in marketing and fundraising would be a great insight on how we can fundraise in our events to support our own cases.
