April 12, 2025 marked the 50th Anniversary of the OTOW Canadian Club!
169 people enjoyed a wonderful 50th Dinner-Dance party! Our 50th Golden Anniversary theme was decorated with red, white and gold, plus lots of glitter for an enjoyable celebration of the Club's longevity with our diverse membership on a memorable evening on February 19, 2025! Six Past Presidents and five spouses were adorned with corsages and boutonnieres by Harry and Barb Morrison prior to being piped into the EAC Auditorium to “Scotland the Brave” by bag pipers, club member Raymond Willis and Neil Forbes, from Toronto, Ontario at the 50th Anniversary February 19th.
169 participants sang “Oh Canada” to the piping in foreground on the left: Pipers Raymond Willis and Neil Forbes, far left, DJ Les Weiss, President [and Past President 2020-23], Connie Stanley, spouse, Ken Campbell, Laurie Fischer [2018-19], spouse, Cathie Fischer, Andy McEvoy [2012-13] spouse Joan McEvoy, Tom McKee [2009-10] spouse Linda McKee, Harry Morrison [2007-08] spouse Barb Morrison and Wendy Colquhoun [2003-04]. Following the singing of the Canadian national anthem, everyone in the room sang “America the Beautiful” to the bag pipes. It was a beautiful gala event! Some photos of that great night can be found below. A special thanks to the great volunteers!
