Peter was hosting our meeting this week and a job well done


Great meeting about our Legacy project. Thank you to Ian, Darrell and Mike P for presenting to us the update of this project and where we are with the City.
We had a great turn out today, but if you did not get a chance to give your ideas about what you would like to see in this building, please let the above know as well as Neil and Alan S.
Nice to see President Susan, Frank & PP Paul on line today
Victoria and Ramin were our guests for only 2 more weeks.

There was an informal RIBFEST meeting on Wednesday night and we hashed a whole lot of 'stuff' out. Well done Ian for having this meeting and to Gary & Bill for using their meeting room. Thank you to everyone who came and gave their very important suggestions
Everyone was grateful for all the work Frank, Peter & Alan did for 2023 RIBFEST. They not only were the chairs but each of them took on another HUGE task as Frank with 50/50, Peter with Volunteers & Alan with Logistics.
There will be a SPONSORSHIP committee meeting on September 29th, venue TBA. We need to get on the ground running NOW to make 2024 the BEST RIBFEST ever.
Please remember we are 'all' in this together. Please give all your suggestions for Sponsorship, big or small. . Please send them to Al S. for now. Remember all ideas are considered.
