RSRT Meets At Sugarloaf Park

Restigouche Branch gathered for their Spring Meeting at Sugarloaf Provincial Park Lodge on Thursday, May 22, 2025.

One of the highlights of the meeting was guest speaker, Dale MacRae, who spoke on his role as a member of the Group Insurance Trustees.  Possibly a topic that might be considered somewhat “dry”, his presentation defied such a supposition as he clearly explained the group structure and the duty of the Trustees, often coloured with metaphorical comparisons keeping everyone listening and sometimes chuckling.  His emphasis:   The underlying principle guiding each Trustee is to consider the benefits for all members of the plan.

Another highlight of the meeting was the presentation of the “almost final” draft of the Branch Constitution by Joanne Currie.  Some minor edits will be made before bringing it to the final vote.

Wellness Rep, Joanne Currie, also highlighted upcoming events, including a visit to the Restigouche Salmon Club, Electric Bike rides, Teacher appreciation muffins & coffee for end of year, a nature walk, and a Fall breakfast.

Following the business meeting, members enjoyed some social time and lunch prepared by the T-Bar Restaurant.
