October Meeting Photos from the October meeting held at the AmVets Post 89, 3535 Westerville Rd Map in Columbus are posted in the Photo Gallery. Also a reminder that the 4th and final trip this year out to I-270 to perform our Adopt-A-Highway duties, is scheduled for Saturday 24 October. We will meet at the Don Gentile American Legion Post 532, 1571 Demorest Road, Columbus, OH 4322 Map at 0900, then proceed over to miles 1 – 3. If we have a good turnout, we can complete our work in 2 hours. We will then have our October Officer Meeting afterwards, and all are invited to attend. So put this down on your calendar, and come out and join us. It is a flat walk, we have devices to reduce the wear and tear on your back, and you get to give back to the community. Rain date will be the following Saturday, 31 October. Posted by cliff Saturday, October 10, 2009 (18:55:28) comments? |
