Our Events

The Club offers several activities, such as monthly dinner meetings, a book club, a Speaker Series, an annual Shaw Festival trip, an annual lobster dinner, and so much more.

Monthly Dinners

 

The Club meets monthly, September to May, on the 3rd Monday of the month. Our meetings are held at various local restaurants (or over Zoom during restrictions).
