Please remember your mothers on Sunday, her special day.

Set your calendar for the Roast Beef Dinner May 27 in the Christ Church Hall at the Batteaux.  Sittings at 5 p.m. and 6:30 p.m.

There was a short discussion on whether we would have our usual June catered dinner.  There may be a little charge for this dinner. More input will be at our next meeting.
