The Pool Party was great!

The Pool Party was great!

Welcome to summer, all you Aussies and Kiwis and Canucks in Canada! Wow, do we have a social calendar for you. In lieu of The Southern Yarn, which is on hiatus until September, we will post upcoming events and notices right here!

To get us started, a reminder that our Pool Party and Potluck is on Saturday July 12 at 57 D’Arcy Drive, starting around 2:00 pm. The Club is providing the burgers and buns, and you are providing the side dishes and desserts, and whatever you want to drink. RSVP to 204-275-7631 or 204-943-3775. Members and guests welcome!

Here are a few more photos from the day:
