Interest in a Social Committee? First event July 26
Time to pay your dues, new bylaws, annual meeting etc.
Thank you Katrina Krievins and Georgian Bay Biosphere
Blackstone Lake Cottagers Association Social Committee
Greetings! We hope you are enjoying your days at the lake. We all tend to be busy up here with our projects to make good use of our fleeting summer. The association thought we could use a break from the routine. Why not reach out with the purpose of getting better acquainted? One of our ideas was a book club. Well, a book and beverage club… and with that, some lively banter. Hence, our BB & B.
Please, bring your current read, a refreshment of choice and join us for our inaugural meeting.
Friday July 26 at the Metelka cottage, 63 Tolpt’s Road in McRoberts Bay
Kathy Watts can pick up anyone who is water access (blackstone.lake115@gmail.com), just contact her to let her know.
Time – 3 o’clock to 6-ish
Please RSVP to Barb, bmetelka@gmail.com (cottage phone – 705-378-0350)
Next one will be at Kathy’s cottage on August 23 so we can keep this going!
