Job Description:

Linda's Retirement Party

Words cannot properly express the impact that Linda Conley has had on the people of Prince Edward County and how much she will be missed by both the community and the literacy field , but we certainly tried to show her. We think she had a great time!

Executive Director, Linda Conley, is set to retire

The Board of Directors, along with the staff and students, of Prince Edward Learning Centre wish Linda Conley, retiring Executive Director, the best of what retirement has to offer.

Linda has worked tirelessly since 1995, towards her passionate pursuit of a more literate Prince Edward County. Hundreds (more likely thousands) of County residents have sat at her desk and received her empathetic assistance. She will be missed.

Please join us as we celebrate all her accomplishments and wish her well in this next chapter of her life.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Gillian, Joe, & Lori made a wonderful carrot soup and we had different kinds of breads. We had pop to drink and for dessert we had cupcakes, squares, and mini-tarts. There were 10 of us. The food was wonderful. We need to do that more often!
