Country, Summer 2003 ROSE Continued trom page 1 What is u ROSE Session? Under the mandate of the “ROSES are Blooming" Expansion Project. a ROSE (rural ontario sharing education) Session includes any educational session where the community is invited to participate. How. ever, a ROSE Session would not include a Branch Program where only Branch memâ€" bers are in attendance. ROSE Sessions include almost all topics - including crafts and health and community service initiaâ€" tives - so long as you invite the community to attend and there is an educational comâ€" ponent. ROSE Sessions can come in many forms. including health fairs. guest speak- ers and community workshops and presentations. I have been thrilled to receive several ROSE Session reports from Branches the past few months. I would like to thank the following Branches for their outstanding contribution to the ROSE Program since January 1.2003: I Amherst Island WI I Bolsover WI l Gillies HiIIWI I Lambton North & Lambton South DistrictWI II Navan WI d J l Perth South District WI I Renfrew North District Wl Roslin WI Russell Village WI Sunnybrooke WI Vittoria WI Wolfe Island WI What is n ROSE Session Profile?
