Good & True ...issue# 48... February, 2007
As we close out the old year and start anew, I'd like to thank our board of directors for their hard work and unselfish dedication to our school and association. Special thanks go out to Ray and Donette who hosted a Christmas dinner for the executives and their spouses. (See part 3) We now start the New Year in anticipation of your continued support and participation. You, our members and your families are the substance of our organization. Our newsletter goes out to over 700 families and I'm sure most of us enjoy it. So please remember to send in your membership dues (C$25 since 1985), as this revenue is needed to cover its costs. As you probably know, our organization has only four annual events which bring us together to meet other Georgians and rekindle past friendships. The first is our Annual General Meeting which will be held at St. Aidan's Catholic Church on March 4, 2007. For those of you who are "Gun shy" or afraid of being elected, don't be intimidated, please attend as this is not an election year. We look forward to your input, ideas and friendship. Our Mass & Family Dinner will be held again at St. Jerome's Roman Catholic Church in Brampton, thanks to Deacon Peter Rickards and Fr. Dan Kolodynski. This will be a treat for us as we will have two guests from Jamaica who will be bringing us up to date on St. George's College. The First Lady of St. George's College, Margaret Campbell our principal, will be our main speaker and fellow Georgian and guest speaker, Lennox Robinson will be "championing" and coordinating our campaign for our "Endowment Fund". Third on the list is our "Annual Summer Ball". Last year was a great success. With over 1,100 in attendance, it was a night to remember. Let's make this year's even better, so plan for it and start booking your tickets now. Last but not least is our "Annual Picnic" with our sister schools Alpha and Immaculate. This is ideal for the whole family, so bring a picnic basket, pack up the kids, grandkids and come on down. We'll have fun, games and prizes for the kids. Our man… Ray Chang was in the news again! Ray was awarded "Man of the Year" by the Gleaner. Congrats Ray, as the saying goes, "Action speaks louder than words" and you're a man of action… couldn't have happened to a better man! Let me now take this opportunity to wish you, one and all, Peace, Health, Fortune, Happiness and Blessings for this New Year. Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam, Daniel Ho Lung

Our Busy President Hard to keep up with our enthusiastic and energetic president who seizes every opportunity to represent us and promote our causes. He is there in support of our StGC family at funerals, fundraisers for other alumni associations: Wolmers, J.C, ICHS, Alpha. It’s good to see, as well, so many of our executive at these functions and events. Here President Danny is seen at the Alpha Dynasty Ball on November 4; a command performance as spouse JoJo is the Alpha president. Also caught in action and supporting ICHS president Katy Sani at their dinner dance on February 3rd.
