A COUPLE OF LOCAL EVENTS OF INTEREST:
Tomorrow, Wednesday, March 21st the Kelvin Community Club (see many previous posts on this blog) will be holding its Annual General Meeting from 7- 8:30 pm at the club. This meeting will elect board members, ask for volunteers for various functions and canvass opinions as to the options for the future of Kelvin. interested residents who cannot attend the meeting can phone 669-7470 for information on the meeting and volunteering.
Speaking of clubs Molly and wife had a great time at the St. Patrick's Day bash at the Irish Club, and Molly even got to lobby Premier Gary Doer about declaring St. Patrick's Day as Manitoba's winter holiday, just like Newfoundland already does. Yeah, Molly DOES occasionally speak to politicians without throwing a convulsion. Look to this blog for an extended article on St. Patrick's Day- long in the writing.
Finally, this Saturday, March 24th the Winnipeg branch of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada (see also our 'Other Interesting Links' section) will be holding a public event at the Bird's Hill park NE of Winnipeg from 9:00 pm to 11:30 pm. The viewing from this location is great as Molly can testify from other events held there, and a laser sky tour and other demonstrations will be presented. A number of telescopes will be set up for the viewing public. In particular Saturn with its rings will put on a great show.
