August 14th – Pig & Corn Roast. Held at Brian and Kathy Curries.
**THIS IS BEING SUBSIDISED THIS YEAR INSTEAD OF THE PICNIC! **
We are trying to add some variety of salads instead of just purchasing the store bought ones, so we are asking the ladies (or gentlemen too) to get together and make some great salads and desserts! Donna Durham ( 1-902-221-2692) will be organizing the list so please advise her of what you or your group are bringing. I suggest your salad or dessert be enough for about 10-15 people if you are making an individual one so we don’t have a lot of left overs. We will also need buns and butter.
We are asking for you to bring your own drinks, plates and cutlery. Napkins will be supplied.
September 2ND – Our September speaker will be from the Collingwood Museum, so plans are in the works to have a group lunch for those interested then go to the Museum to do a self guided tour.
Lots of great things in the works. PLUS !! MARK YOUR CALENDARS NOW!! Christmas party will be Dec 6th at the United Church again. We will be doing Roast Beef this year!!
PLEASE NOTE:
If you are signed up for anything and unable to attend the meeting, you may contact me at social@beachcombersprobus.com or Carrol Lisk at sig@beachcombersprobus.com and also etransfer payment to that email address as well.
