Update: Almost Monthly Club Fun Day and Club Meeting on Saturday, June 3rd
Looking forward to seeing everyone at the railroad tomorrow for our “Almost Monthly Club Fun Day”. The day starts when you arrive and ends when you leave so enjoy as much as you can. The board has decided to move the regularly scheduled meeting from this Saturday, June 3rd to Saturday, June 17th because of prior commitments, illness, and taking kids to camp has caused the number of board members available to be only a couple. Sorry for the short notice of this change as some of the board members had last minute changes in their availability. So, make the most of the day and play as much and as long as you want.
