A Note from the President   ~  Yahya Hematy

The New Year’s Day hike was a fresh start for our year 2012 activities. There will be plenty of fun outings this spring, which are listed in the newsletter, including two popular pancake hikes in March. Winter camping and snow shoeing trips are also scheduled. Please contact the leaders to sign up if required, or just show up and participate.

 

This year’s Spring Social will be held on Friday, April 27 at Stokes Inland. The Social Committee is working hard to make it a fun evening for all. See the details in the newsletter on pages 13 and 16.

 

Please volunteer for our committees and bring some fresh ideas to the committees.

 

Become ambassadors for our club and encourage friends and family members to participate in our outdoor activities and become members if they wish.

 

As individuals we all try, to the best of our ability, to exercise safety in all activities. We have a good system for keeping a first-aid kit with each committee. Leaders they try their best to organize events as smoothly as possible. Although we all sign the waiver, please mention to your leader if there is a restriction which limits you on a certain outing event, so that they can arrange alternatives if any difficulty arises. We live in an industrial and petrochemical area which scores the best safety record in Ontario, due to well respecting the safety rules. We can for sure adopt these principles into all of our outdoor events as well.

 

Enjoy the activities planned for this season and thanks to all of our executive committee chairs.

 

Yahya Hematy

President,
