===========================================================
During the summer months of July/August, there will be no formal meetings. Our next meeting will be in September.
As has become customary we are planning again to hold picnic gatherings beginning in the late afternoon at Lake Ontario Park on what would have been the regular meeting day, second Wednesday of the month. A go / no-go email will be issued to the Centre chat list a day or two prior confirming the event (based on the weather forecast). If necessary the picnic may be rescheduled.
For the time being, pencil-in July 9th and August 13th for picnics.
