Hi dear GHG people,
We’re going to try doing a GHG meeting on Zoom this Thursday. If you would like to participate, please send an e-mail to grandviewheritage@gmail.com. You will receive an invitation with the link and password just before the meeting.
We won’t have our exact usual format because we’ll be online.
Here’s our agenda:
- Introductions and a few minutes of getting everyone oriented and comfortable with Zoom
- Eric’s “Around the Neighbourhood” (which we didn’t manage to get to at our last face-to-face meeting)
- Michael’s short presentation about banks
- Neville’s historic images with Celtic Cannery & Shipyards
- Other business
Cheers,
Penny
No Grandview Heritage Group meeting for March…
We won’t be having a Grandview Heritage Group meeting this month.
Many of our members are self-isolating.
Here’s hoping we collectively manage to “flatten the curve”.
We’ll let you know when we get back on track.
We’ve got a few good presentations lined up for once we get back together.
Be safe!
