Greetings friends and neighbours,

Following up on our initial meeting in May to explore the idea of a Council of Canadians local Chapter, which many of you attended, this is the invitation to the founding meeting of the Bobcaygeon (or Trent Lakes – Kawartha Lakes) Council of Canadians Chapter on July 13th at 10:30 am. The meeting will be held at Kawartha Coffee Co. – 49 Bolton Street in Bobcaygeon. 

John Cartwright, the newly elected National President of the Council, and Organizer Christina Warner will be in attendance to assist us and to report on the recent AGM and Action Plan for the future. We also hope (technology gods willing) to have greetings from Hononary President Maude Barlow via Skype. 

Feel free to forward this invitation to others living in the area who may be interested.

Hoping to see you on the 13th.

Warm Regards,

 

Sherry Hillman & George Hewison
