Sask Section's Fall Meeting

The Fall Meeting of the Saskatchewan Section will be held on Thursday, November 5th. As a bit of a departure from the usual venue, the meeting will be held this time in the Auditorium of the J.S. Wood Library on the corner of Landsdowne Ave and Taylor St in Saskatoon.

In addition to the "meeting", photos from the 2009 Photo Contest will be shown and elections for the various Executive positions will be held. There are two positions that will be vacant, that of Chair and Activities Coordinator. Volunteers for those positions will definitely be needed.

Coffee, juice and desserts will be available.

Everyone is welcome to come out, attend the meeting, volunteer for a position on the Executive and enjoy an evening of socializing with other Section members. The meeting starts at 7 pm.
