Due to our greatly increased membership, our new meeting venue will from now on be at McNaughton Ave Elementary School Library. The facility is larger and is capable of being darkened for our projection requirements. We sincerely thank the nice people at Queen Elizabeth II School for having us the past years.

Paul updated us on the status of the Chatham-Kent Web Portal, Trillium Grant and presented a very well put together presentation on Huntsville and Algonquin Park area. Beautiful Job Paul! We were also given excellent presentations by Richard Armstrong who showed us some of his outstanding work from over the years, and Les McCracken who gave us a very interesting and informative presentation on “Villa Angela”, Chatham-Kent’s new Mother’s House. Great Job to both of you, Well Done!
We also had a few new members join, all in all it was a very productive first meeting with a great turnout. See everyone next Month
