Welcome to 2022 !!
We start off a new year with a chapter meeting time change 18:00 (6:00 pm) to 15:00 (3:00 pm)
due to earily darkness, increasing years, night vision problems and winter driving conditions. Still the same third (3rd) Thursday of the month. Other than that, no
worries!!

longer will be counting them.

Everyone please check the flag boxes in your area, it makes life a lot easier for us and the hosting
party. They won't have to call to see if someone can pick up. it only takes a little bit to do it.
Thanks, Lee
