The club operates in two separate groups, with a maximum number of 8 ladies in each group. We would welcome new members who would enjoy a lively, supportive group where a book is appreciated and discussed, often leading to discussion of broader issues in our lives and the world. Books are chosen by the members and we try to include a wide variety of mostly, but not all, fiction.
Meets the third Monday of the month at 1 p.m. The group meets in front of the gift shop.
This group is perfect for those who have a yearly pass to Butchart Gardens, as it allows us to view the differing plants as the seasons change. Coffee will follow for those interested.

Each month we meet at a different restaurant for dinner and lively conversation. Members will take turns in organizing and choosing the restaurants, and will receive information about the selected restaurant by Email. Dining Out is open to all SWANS members, both singles and those with partners.

Swans Friday Walking Group
We walk every Friday, rain or shine, starting at 9:30. However, in the event of unsafe walking conditions (e.g. snow, ice, high winds) the leader may choose to cancel the walk. Walks are generally 75 to 90 minutes in duration. A schedule for upcoming walks is provided once a month, and a reminder is sent out on the Thursday prior to the walk the following day. Details such as the degree of elevation (e.g. flat, hilly) and walking surface (e.g. trail, pavement) are provided in these communications, along with the location for coffee and the timing (e.g. mid-walk, post-walk). The leader’s cell phone number is also provided. Please note that dogs are not permitted on the walks. Members are encouraged to share the duty of leading the walks, and an attempt is made to vary the locations. Anyone wishing to bring a friend should contact the leader who will provide a waiver form to be signed at the start of the walk. Members who are not able to walk are encouraged to join the group for coffee. Our goal is to exercise and socialize!
Happy travels,
Jan
Meets every Wednesday at 1:00 to 3:30 PM. Lessons are required so that all participants play the same game. We play at the Cordova Bay Beach Estates at 5110 Cordova Bay Rd. Cost is $5 per session for the room rental.
Meet the 4th Tuesday for a matinee at various cinemas and go out for dinner or coffee after to discuss the movie. Members take turns choosing the movie and location.
Meets the 2nd Wednesday of the month at noon.
Join others members at a variety of restaurants in the greater Victoria area. We meet for lunch on the second Wednesday of each month. So much fun!
To make sure we have a chance to visit over lunch, we will keep the group small. If the luncheon is over subscribed, we will split into two groups for a particular month. A waitlist can be established, and those people will have priority for the next luncheon.
As a member of this group, you will have the opportunity to convene one particular monthly luncheon. You will choose the restaurant, prepare a brief description, pick the exact time, make the reservation and include the address and parking details. You will send this information to me (rillah@ualberta.ca) at least 2 weeks before the luncheon date and I will forward it to all who have signed up for Out To Lunch. I’ll make sure we have a convenor for each month. I’ll also send out the invitations, keep track of the responses and forward all relevant information to the monthly convenor.
Meets on the 3rd Tuesday of the month at 11:30 AM.
