Here's the report from tonight's meeting at the Hilltop. We had a good turnout and it was great fun as it always is.
Despite dark and threatening clouds which failed to deliver
any rain (this is becoming the norm here), a decent sized group of FABACians
met at the ever popular Hilltop for our August dinner/meeting.
Gary brought us up to speed on the happenings for the past
while:
· He thanked me (Rob E.) for taking his place while he was off raising heck somewhere. Awww shucks guys...
· The recent outing led by Ernst was mentioned. Photos and a write up are already on the site.
· The club’s 25th anniversary party was mentioned.
· John Dewitt's recent run was also mentioned. Of note was the fact that no one got lost or had to resort to horrible roads.
· Gary brought us up on the brand, spanking new website that Mike, Erin and Nathan have launched. If you're reading this, I don't have to tell you about it. We congratulated the previous webmaster, David N. on keeping the original site going for 25 years.
· Johanna Bertin talked about her bike riding in support of children's cancer treatments. She's first in Canada for her age group. We're all pretty proud for you of what you continue to do.
· I (Rob E.) then took the floor and talked about the Tuesday breakfasts and our open invitation to the ladies. A few of you (you know who I'm talking about) have attended the breakfasts and you know darn well that we almost never talk cars or other boring stuff. If a few of you show up, you can always grab your own table(s) so that you act like you're not with us. And you get a free breakfast.
UPCOMING EVENTS...
· The Stanley Fair is always fun and well attended. All the info has already been posted.
· A trip to PEI is coming in September.
· Our next dinner/meeting will be at the ever popular El Mariachi. We've been there a couple of times already and everyone enjoyed it. Details will be posted but it'll be on the 16th of September at 5:30PM.
