President's Message
Dear Members,
 
What a pleasure it was to see (in person, rather than virtually through zoom) so many of our club members at the Farmers Market on Saturday.  I liken it to being let out in the school playground.  Sincere thanks must go to Ian Salek and Rob Winspear for their persistence, solid work with the Council on COVID-19 safety measures, briefings to those on duty, and general "can do" attitude.    Thank you also to the Farmers Market Committee and the volunteers rostered on Saturday.    All of you contributed to a successful return of the Market.  I had several shoppers express their delight with the re-opening.
