-FOLLOWING THE JOINT MEETING WITH KIWANIS SOMEONE ASKED WHEN DID WE START THE JOINT MEETING ROUTINE--
After some research it appears our first regularly scheduled joint meeting was held on Monday, April 19, 2010 at the Mocha Shrine Centre. A portion of the notice appears below. The following year it was held at the Convention Centre on May 30th. The balance of the meetings have been held on the last Monday in May with the clubs alternating the hosting role. During Covid one meeting was not held but there have been a couple of times when Kiwanis joined our meeting as at the last minute when they where asked to meet elsewhere or cancel their scheduled meeting. So, Monday was our 15th + meeting - and, what a great meeting it was!
