Shore Things - new season reminders

one of my favourite photos

TEAM As you know, a team of about eight has replaced Helen's team of one.   Some of the important people to remember are Susan (send anything or photos which you would like her to include on the blog);  Libby (any races you are thinking about and all your registrations for races);  Trish and Jan will be providing us with some new routes with a parking and coffee shops.   Please watch for those!

SHIRTS - Sheila sends the following

"We are putting in an order for a lightweight double-mesh wicking ShoreThings T-Shirt. They will have our logo on the back and front just like the blue ones, but this time the shirt will be white.  The women's are v-neck and the men's are crew neck. The price will be around $30.

For those who I've missed due to summer vacation and have not yet put in their orders, the deadline is September 8th. I will be at Tim's from 10-11 this coming Saturday and also the 7th with samples to try on, and I can arrange to hook up with anyone who would like to try on the samples anytime in between before the 7th. Just email me at <smallwoodsheila@gmail.com> and we can make a time to meet. "

YEAR END POT LUCK - this will be held at Lou-Ann's Church on Saturday 9th November.   Closer to the date we will send out more details.   But I wanted to let you know the date, and also to let you know that we are asking that everyone who attends pay $10 each.   Our ST bank balance is running low and we need money to pay for small things (prizes, S>T> adds etc) and also to pay for the Church.    If anyone can think of any additional ways to increase our coffers, please let us know..

SCHEDULED WALKS -  we have a few smaller 'break-off' groups walking at different times and different locations, for our week day walks.   One group walks in the Eglington/Mount Pleasent area and another group walks during the day on Mondays and Wednesdays in the O'Connor/St.Clair area.    I believe these two groups will be posting times and locations in the comments in the appropriate blog.   However, these times are not set in stone and may change at short notice.  So, it is important to let people know ahead of time if you wish to join them.   Trish and Ruth will be looking after theEglinton walks, and Lou-Ann and Dawn will be looking after the O'Connor area.   However, Lou_Ann and Dawn will not be doing this for the last two weeks of September.

It is my fervent hope that the majority of our walkers will continue to meet at Tim's on Saturday mornings.    We are hoping to perhaps look at routes which might include Sunnybrook Park, Brickworks, West end (right Trish and Jan?) etc.

I think that covers most of what I wanted to say.   I have enjoyed the summer, all our hot walks with wonderful people, an amazing pool party and lots of additional swims to cool us off after our walks.   Many, many thanks to Lou-Ann and her pool staff, Paul.
