The regular KWI meeting in February took place at the home of Fairley and Alvin Yeo. A report 
     
     was given by the convention committee after the minutes were read and approved. The K WI is to 
     
     be responsible for the president, secretary, display, memorial, resolutions, and fun and nonsense. 
     
     There will be a memorial in honour of Geneva King. Fairley read the citation of Geneva’s 
     
     involvement in the Women’s Institute, activities which were very significant contributions to the 
     
     WI including receiving the diamond jubilee medal. She was married to former teacher Don King 
     
     and they were parents to six children. The collection is to go to the Red Cross. The KWI 
     
     members are reviewing the institute minute books and organizing the information for Margaret 
     
     Sweet to type up. No school or hospital report. Betty Sweet gave the program on P.E.L. in 
     
     politics. Correspondence included Women in Agriculture Award, minutes of 2018 provincial 
     
     convention, application forms for P.E.I. board of directors, notice of bylaw, change, and strategic 
     
     plan 2017 - 2020. Prior to the meeting, Kathleen Poirier gave suggestions on what format the 
     
     KWI history could be presented, either book or binder form that could be added to at any time. 
     
     She handed out organized forms to compile the information for her to put together. Orell moved 
     
    
   
   
    
     the meeting adjourned, and women sang God Save the Queen in unison. 
     
    
   
   
    
     The March KWI meeting had some new and old news. Debbie Atkinson, manager of the Festival 
     
     of Small Halls sent word that Knutsford will be one of the venues included in the festival. 
     
     Schedule will be sent out in March. The 2019 Seniors’ Secretariat application will be open from 
     
     March | to April 15, 2019. April 29 is ACWW day. Each year people gather together to walk 
     
     the world raising funds. Betty Sweet reported for hospital that Dr. Grimes will be leaving in 2020 
     
     and that Darlene and Eugene Gallant’s daughter has opened a psychiatric position in 
     
    

    
     Summerside. New furniture for the hospital has arrived but not the bladder scanner. For program, 
     
     Betty and Wanda told many hilarious jokes. Under new business, the community centre was 
     
     going to host yoga sessions for seniors or anyone who would like to attend. Megan Ellis will be 
     
    
   
   
    
     the teacher and offer an introductory class for beginners. 
     
    
   
   
    
     In April the KWI regular meeting was held at Ken and Verna Smallman’s. Roll call was 
     
     answered by seven members paying 10 cents for each mirror in their home and an Easter poem. 
     
     No date has yet been set for Small Hall Festival. Correspondence included Roadside Cleanup 
     
     and contest will be May 11-19. A thank you card was received from Eva, Stella, and Doris for
