Christmas Greetings 2018

At this festive time of year, we like to take a minute to reflect on then year’s journey and events that have occupied the interests of the SRA.

2018 has been a historic year for membership growth as we have experienced an increase of over 400 new members. This marks a 60% increase from last year, also a record for growth. We now have over 3,000 lives in the SRA Health and Dental Plans, our key program to attract new members.

Your Board has also worked to begin to implement the three-year action plan we approved earlier in the year. With the new focus on member engagement, we were pleased to participate in Spotlight on Seniors’ in Saskatoon, where over 800 members were invited to join us for a complementary lunch. We had 52 members participate and had over 200 visitors attend our booth to learn more about the SRA and its services.

We also continued our recent approach of adding a guest speaker to our Annual General Meeting, with positive feedback from those in attendance. Also, the introduction of our Lifetime Honorary members was well received by the members. We plan to continue to partner with local groups so we can increase our engagement around the province.

As we look forward to 2019, we can report that your Association is in sound financial shape, has strong leadership on the Board and Committees and will continue to experiment with new and different approaches to get to understand your needs better. With more engagement, we hope to be able to expand our programming and services in the next while.

On behalf of the Board and Committees of the Saskatchewan Retirees Association, we wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and the very best in 2019!

Happy holidays,

Randy Dove,

President
