Editing revision 54 of Program Ideas

This page documents possible future monthly programs ===2018=== * MARCH: How I survived the winter * APRIL: Lynn Murphy & Don Stevens: Art Therapy. * MAY 13: AGM + Suzanne's El Camino * JUNE: * JULY: Pride Week * AUGUST: Picnic exactly like last year * SEPTEMBER 9: Sherri talks about the Shaar Shalom * OCTOBER * NOVEMBER * DECEMBER : Anita: "I don't think ordering out is necessary unless and until we know we will have way more folks in" Barend says: "Next time we should organise having music. I could bring a cd player and some Xmas cds at worst. Let's plan on song sheets. Probably a flash drive with a Xmas tunes menu could be played through a device. Most carols are public domain, can be dowloaded and copies printed cheaply. Live music is probably too expensive. Even if we don't sing, we could have nice background music." ===2019=== * MARCH : ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING ===Future=== * Suzanne Litke (via Allison): about hiking the El Camino. She’d be happy to talk about her trip and/or anything about fitness and exploring the outdoors.
