MEETINGS AT SPUNTINO'S RESTAURANT HAVE BEEN CANCELLED

We regret to inform our members that we can no longer have our membership meetings at Spuntino's Restaurant. Our last meeting there was attended by over 60 members. The room, being small but able to hold around 45 - 50 members, resulted in seating almost shoulder to shoulder and, as it turned out, several of those attending came down with COVID. We can say nothing bad about the food or excellent service, but the restaurant has no possibilty of expanding the room.



 We are hopeful that many more members will be attending these meetings because remember, this is your Association and if you have anything important to say, this is the time for it.
