Our weekly lunch meetings are held every Friday at 12 pm at the Nanaimo Golf Club.
Members socialize over a buffet lunch, followed by a short business meeting. Guest speaker presentations begin at 1 pm, with 30 minutes allotted, including time for Q&A.
If you are interested in speaking, please send us a short biography as well as a brief outline of your presentation. If you have a PowerPoint slide or video that you would like to bring to aid your presentation, you are of course welcome to do so.
We will dedicate 20-30 minutes of time for your presentation. If you require more time to present your ideas, please let us know ahead of time so we can arrange accordingly.
