CFUW Georgetown

CFUW Georgetown's Couples Outing Group enjoyed a fun evening at the races. The weather was fine, the horses were beautiful and the company superb. A few even brought winnings home!

CFUW Georgetown's Film Interest Group, Flicks, finishes its season of ghost-themed films with Stanley Kubrick's 1980 The Shining, a paranormal classic and endless source of memes.

CFUW Georgetown's 55th Anniversary was acknowledged at the Ontario Council AGM & Conference May 23rd in Peterborough ON, marking a significant milestone in our Club's history. It was a special pleasure to celebrate this achievement among kindred Ontario Clubs.

At this year's Ontario Council AGM & Conference, CFUW Georgetown was represented by four members, pictured here with OC President Sandra (centre) and Regional Director Ontario South Christine (right). Our members - Jean, Jaz, Margaret and Jasvir - return loaded with ideas from workshops and panel discussions.

On May 5th, Red Dress Day, CFUW Georgetown hosted a round table discussion of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls and its final Report, entitled Reclaiming Power and Place to inform and honour all the lives impacted.

Flicks, in pursuit of less alarming film ghosts this month, turned to Coco, a funny and heart-warming Pixar film from 2017 about a Mexican boy who is aided by his family of ghosts in achieving his musical ambitions and in righting a wrong. Disappointed to find that there is bureaucracy even in the Land of the Dead.
