Since my last report we have gained another 4 members (2 in Canada and 2 in England).
See photos below.

We continue to assist with the "coffee morning" which is held in Ridgedale Monday - Saturday every week in the "Seniors Centre" thus giving locals the opportunity to meet in mutual fellowship with one another and on 31 occasions this last quarter, the troop ran this event.

On 12 occasions we helped run the bingo sessions so essential in raising funds required to maintain the Seniors Hall in Ridgedale.

On 8 occasions during this quarter we helped sort items delivered to the Salvation Army charity store in the town of Tisdale. Proceeds raised once again were for local charities.

The Food Bank. - 5 times the troop ran the Tisdale Food Bank Distribution Centre.

On 14 occasions the troop collected food contributions from various stores in Tisdale and delivered them to the Food Distribution Centre for allocation.

Emergency Food Hampers were issued to people in dire need of help on 2 occasions.

Medical Car. 6 times local residents were transported for medical appointments to and from the city of Saskatoon and the town of Nipawin.

Food catering duties carried out 13 times for Ridgedale Pot Luck Suppers, Ratner Lutheran Church, Cancer Awareness Day, Nipawin Sellathon Day, Ratner Fall Supper, Ridgedale Fall Supper, Ridgedale Fun Day and the Ridgedale Christmas Party.

25 volunteer duties were carried out at the Newmarket Nursing Home in Tisdale.

One of our members who has musical talent goes round various Seniors Centres and Care Homes in the area entertaining the residents and on 7 occasions he with 4 friends carried out "Entertaining Duties" - free of charge of course.

Helping Hands. - Door Guard at Nipawin Sellathon Day. Helping various residents pump water out of their flooded basements due to excessive rainfall and the high water tables.

Remembrance Day Service (11th November) - Members were present at this annual service and we presented a wreath in memory of those who had given their all so that we might be free.

On 7 occasions the troop "manned" the Salvation Army "kettles" in Tisdale Co-op helping collect money to purchase items for Christmas Hampers (food and toys) for the less fortunate in the community. (See photo's below).

Our last troop meeting prior to Christmas was followed by a Christmas dinner served with all the trimmings!! (See photo's below).
