Lori Beecroft

“I’ve lived in the Huntsville area for 21 years and have a financial and accounting background. I’ve had the opportunity to participate on several not-for-profit Boards and I am excited to be a part of Muskoka Seniors including a role on the Board of Directors. I think the services provided to help seniors stay in their homes and the connection that the staff can make with seniors in Muskoka is phenomenal! I wish I had been aware of a similar organization before my father passed away. It would have been a comfort to know that I also had support and someone to check on him when I wasn’t able to. It’s my hope to be able to help and contribute toward Muskoka Seniors mission in an effort to ensure the services continue to be available for others and all are aware of the amazing opportunities for their loved ones.”

"As a long-time cottager, and now permanent resident I have lived and loved Muskoka all my life. I have also enjoyed a long and rewarding career serving seniors and even more importantly, supporting those who provide care and services to seniors. Being on the Board of Muskoka Seniors allows me to honour both passions and I look forward to working with all the excellent staff and volunteers who make this important organization succeed."

Linda Hurlbut

“I have been living in Huntsville for 4 years but was a cottager for many more. I’m lucky I still have both my parents who are 91 and 90 and a mother-in-law who is 91. Knowing firsthand the challenges for seniors in our area, I’m thrilled to be part of the board for the Muskoka Seniors Organization, making a difference. I also work contract as a solution consultant in project management.”

Having moved to Huntsville in 2018 and learning about the services that Muskoka Seniors offers, I am excited to be part of the Board of Directors and to have the opportunity to give back to the community.”
