Announcements


December 20, 2011

To ALL

I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year.

I would also like to let you know that January 22-28 is Activity Professional s Week. Unfortunately this week is only recognized in the US, however there is nothing saying we cannot celebrate it here in Canada as well.

You may want to plan a tea for your recreation staff where the leaders or other staff serves. Another way of recognizing their work and how important it is to the company is by giving them a card with all the leaders’ signatures.

It is also good to let others know that we are professionals just like care and the staff in other departments. Let’s keep learning, growing and moving our association forward.

Respectfully,
Shannon Toop
