Activities
Monthly Meetings
We will continue to meet on the 3rd Monday of every month. We meet in various ways including in-person, Zoom and a hybrid of in-person and Zoom.
Visitor admission is $5, except for special guest presentations, when it is $10.
We have a Members show and tell at every meeting. 'Show' means sharing of fibre related accomplishments. 'Tell' is the sharing of anything that may be of interest to members (shows, workshops, talks).
Program Lineup
- Monday, August 15 – A special off-site outdoor social evening. Details to come!
- Monday, September 19 – Membership Renewals, and an Interactive Activity to help us make plans for OOTB future activities! (In person at City View United – this meeting will NOT be held over Zoom)
