The Tennis Group held a "Morning Tea" and raised $529 which was a great start from a small number of people. This Group has been holding its event since it was started by the Cancer Council. Shirley's 500 Cards Group had a raffle and raised $100.20. The Wednesday and Friday Line Dancers raised an amazing $1150! Friday morning Table Tennis donated $50. The Computer Group put in $50 The Badminton Group added its $30. This gave a grand total of $1909.20 donated to the Cancer Council to aid further research, support services, prevention programs and advocacy. This was a wonderful effort by these 6 Groups from Life Activities Whitehorse. Next year it would be great if other LAC Groups would like to participate.

LAC YOGA 9.15 - 10.15 MONDAYS DURING SCHOOL TERMS Have you tried Yoga? It's probably quite different to what you imagine. We're a friendly bunch who explore movement, strengthening, joint mobility, balance, brain flexibility, concentration/focus, breathing in ways that support us throughout each day and a 'letting go' of it all at the end. There's always a few who get together after for a cuppa too. You'll notice I haven't even mentioned body flexibility. Actually that will improve too but you certainly don't need it at all to start yoga. It's light hearted and fun. I have been teaching yoga for many years now. I love supporting people to realise they're inner vitality. We often have a laugh at ourselves too. For further information contact Ursula Lindner Ph: 9802 4448 Swamiji

IT WOULD BE APPRECIATED IF ALL RENEWALS COULD BE PAID BY 1st OCTOBER.

Membership renewal can now be paid in 4 different ways:

Electronic fund transfer EFT and the REFERENCE is your membership number. For couple, two separate EFTs have to be made. No further paper work is required.

Pay cash at any Westpac branch and the REFERENCE is your membership number. For couple, two separate payments of $25.00 each have to be made. No further paper work is required.

Pay by cheque/money order (payable to Life Activities Club Whitehorse Inc,) attached to the duly completed form below.

Pay by cash attached to the duly completed form below. EFT payment and direct payment at any Westpac branch are the preferred methods because you do not have to fill in the renewal form below, unless your details have changed, and they also reduce the

workload for the Membership Secretary and the Treasurer. It is very important that your membership number is correctly quoted for each payment. For direct payment at any Westpac branch, you MUST ask the bank teller for a receipt for each payment. You MUST check that the bank details and your membership number have been correctly printed/processed in the receipt.
