Patricia Bayley

Did you miss our May Meeting?
HERE’S A RECAP


At our May Members’ meeting, we had the pleasure of hearing from one of our own, Patricia Bayley, who shared a heartfelt presentation titled Life’s Journey—also the name of her first poetry collection, published in 2021.

Her poems touched on a wide range of themes, from nature and war to change and aging, offering moving reflections on everyday experiences that many of us can relate to. Patricia is currently pursuing a Doctor of Education at Ontario Tech University, focusing her research on poetry and its impact on older adults.

We’re proud to celebrate such an inspiring and talented member of our community and extend our sincere thanks to her for sharing her literary work with us.
Congratulations to Sandra Laureyssens who won a copy of Patricia’s book.


The winners of this month’s Share the Wealth draw were: Bill Walker, Judy Anderson, and Bob Ashdown
The winners each received $30.  Congratulations everyone!

A new group of unaligned activist seniors from Scugog who want to provide options to our seniors to age in place in Scugog, started on Nov.1. Today we have 11 members on our steering committee and three members and two organizations in our research support group. 


Our lofty goals include:

 

• developing a prioritized list of needs and wants for Scugog seniors by engaging with the community

 

• share relevant knowledge with Scugog thru seminars, webinars and videos - ensure our politicians and staff evaluate developers’ proposals for housing options for our aging population


• support the Ontario wide association Seniors for Social Action (Ontario) (SSAO) on related issues


• identify alternatives to institutionalization and encourage governments to finance these alternatives with a goal to end institutionalization

 

Our mission statement is “We are a coalition of Scugog residents from a variety of backgrounds and areas of expertise, who have come together to discover, advocate for, promote, and assist in the implementation of accommodation alternatives for housing and health for Scugog Seniors.”
