me ing.
roll call, the members suggested
qu ies a recreation leader should
hav . They listed flexibility, organized
an appy, among others.
ry Ellen Foran taught the
me bers about good characteristics of
a ader, such as being flexible,
prepared, and enthusiastic. They also
learned the 10 commandments of
leading social recreation, the SHU
ru14 - be seen, be heard, be
un*stood, about teamwork, pace,
wh to take a break and how to deal
with negative attitudes.
e members then put their new
• kn ledge to the test by leading
ga s they have never played before.
Th were marked by the other
me bers on their attempts.
May 26, at the thrid meeting, the
clu built on their social recreation
ski . Mary Ellen taught the group
how to access situations to decide
what activities are suitable for age
grodps, location and physical and
mental capabilities.
The members were given three

age groups suitable for them. After
this they were given a situation and
The Auburn Women's Institute
met at the home of June Robinson
for their June meeting on June 16.
Erma Cartwright, the vice-
president, called the meeting to
order. President Margaret Fraser
was convalescing from surgery
'and unable to attend. The meeting-
opened with the Ode and Mary
Stewart Collect followed by 0'
Canada.
The business portion of the
meeting was conducted. June
Robinson gave the topic on
education and cultural activities.
The topic was in the form of
questions and answers on the
theory of aging, prepared as a
project by Patricia Robinson.
Patricia is presently taking a
nursing degree in Thunder Bay.
Some of the questions were:
what attitudes do others/society
have toward older people? What
would you change about society
today. How would you define
wise? Are you wise?
We all go through stages from

were to find the appropriate activity.
The fourth meeting was held on
May 26 in the St. Augustine hall. They
decided that a social recreation leader
thiliks about the age, weather, and a
variety of games when thinking of the
program for an event. Sarah then led
the group through a new game where
each member was designated a colour
and when it was called they had to
jump up and try to get a chair.
Sophie instructed the members in
yet another new activity, called
pyramid. The group was split in two
and given a sheet of newspaper, six
pop cans, and an elastic with strings
tied to it. The pop cans were placed
inside the newspaper, and as long as
they were inside, no one could touch
them. The cans were to be piled in a
pyramid to win.
Mary Ellen taught the group how to
plan a social recreation program. The
first step is to set goals you wish to
achieve, then divide your personnel
into committees or teams, playing up
individual strengths so that the best
possible job is done. Next the different
committees work together to decide
things like who the audience is, where
and when is the program and what the
theme of the program will be.
The individual committees are in
when we are born and aging is just
another process in life.
The Institute was asked to serve
the 150th anniversary cake on July
31 for Auburn's and also are
catering four theatre dinners this
summer.
Plans were discussed- for the
London area convention at
Holmesville on Oct. 5.
The collection was gathered by
Katelyn Stoner of Port Elgin who
was visiting with her grandmother,
June Robinson for the week.
The roll call was What have you
done since leaving school to
improve your education? A variety
of ways education was formed

At Jim Lawlor's funeral service
prayers were given by Marie
McIntyre of Goderich and cousin
Eric Poels of Wingham. Art
Haverkamp and- Ed Haines
provided the eulogy that outlined
Jim's life.
Ethel Ball and her son Daryl,
surprised friends in Bayfield, N.S.
to celebrate their 65th wedding
anniversary. They returned home
charge of how their part of the
program will come together.
The final step in planning a
successful social recreation program
is to put it all together using the
program planning curve. This helps to
ensure that all of the activities are not
high energy or not all sit-down games.
Meeting five was held on June 9 at
7 p.m. in the basement of St.
Augustine.
This was the last meeting at which
games were to be brought and Sean
Boyle was first to share his, called
Snow Ball Fight. The members were
split into two teams, then threw balls
back and forth. The object was to have
the fewest balls on your side at the
end. Melissa Boyle presented her
games next, a few pages of brain
teasers the group worked together to
solve.
The last member to introduce a
game to the club was Kristina
Drennan, who chose Hot or Cold. In
this game, an object was hidden while
someone was out of the room. When
they come back in, they have to find
the object while everyone else was
singing: the -closer the person is to the
object the louder everyone sings.
Mary Ellen and June Robinson told
the group more about speaking. The
last Tuesday.
Get-well wishes to Frances Clark.

first thing to consider is the audience:
their age, the size of the group, the
gender of the group anditheir interasts.
Using this information you must then
choose the topic you wish to speak
about. Next, prepare by writing point-
form notes, so you find it easier to
connect with the audience. Make sure
what you have written begins with an
introduction, followed by the body of
the speech and than a summary to
close it.
The final step to making a good
presentation is to practise your
presentation. Eighty per cent of all
communication is through body
language, so do not appear nervous,
bored, or tired during your speech.
The group then put what they had
learned into practice, doing 30-second
speeches about a topic they knew
well.
The members then practised
introducing people both informally
and formally, and thanking speakers.
Another skill the members practised
was speaking into a microphone.
The sixth meeting was Jtine 11.
Sarah introduced Ruth Ritchie, who
was a guest at the meeting.
-Each committee for the
'achievement program shared their
ideas for the program by letting the
group participate in the activities.
