Spring is here!
Finally. Not that we’d claim that this was one of the
worst winters we’ve had for a while (decades), but it has seemed to drag on
forever. Like virtually every
organization in Ohio this has caused more than a few issues. Chief among them was the combination of
meetings and attendance.
Unlike many activities and
organizations, we rarely cancel meetings.
Instead, we encourage each member to make their own determination. Should a member decide staying home is a
safer idea, we respect that. The safety
of our members is that important.
Now that spring has sprung,
we are back to our normal routine - at least until the next snow falls. Until then our calendar has many suggestions
for those suffering from cabin fever. What
better reason to get out and about?
