Our membership as of the end of October is 156, down from 167 from last year. While a number of members did not renew with us this year, we have 3 new members so far, and inquiries about joining us continue to come in. We know that the best way of growing our membership is by word of mouth, so please let your friends know about us and bring them to our meetings! We started the year with vacancies in the 1st Vice-President and Archivist roles. I have great news that Naeema Degani has agreed to take on the 1st VP role effective immediately and Isabel Hodge accepted the role of Archivist at the beginning of October. Warm welcomes to both of these ladies! Thanks go to Ann Knappe, who continued to assume the Archivist role until a replacement was found. We had our first crisis for the year, which was quickly averted. This had to do with our meeting location at St. Brides Church. Due to a rent increase that makes it unaffordable to continue with our arrangement at St. Brides, we needed to quickly determine our options. Thanks go to the Executive Committee who immediately looked at options and especially to Dianne Lawson who secured Huron Park Recreation Centre for our January to April 2019 General Meetings. Please see the Member Announcement in the current Newleter for additional details about this location and arrangement. I look forward to seeing you at our upcoming Fall & Winter meetings.
