As was reported earlier, we have changed our Insurance policy to what the SVAA offers from the Competition Insurance policy that we have had for many years.. The reason is cost, we got the same coverage thru SVAA cheaper that what Competition Ins. required (Competition Ins. is now a Wayfarer Ins. Partner) for a lot less..

We have close to 80 10 x 10 stalls available & the fee is still only $40.00 for a stall. Tables if needed will be $12.00 extra but only currently have a few to use from the local church.

Each member is requested to sell at least a book (hopefully more.)

Non Profit Status:

This is the first time since we went this route that the province has been very slow in giving this status to us. Normally it has been accepted and completed by Christmas but not at this time (province is “dragging” their feet on this). Still pending. WHY ?

The SVAA insurance info:

Still No policy, Jim has contacted them on this matter & as of to-day still no answer from them. Still pending?!

The Western Canada Meet:

The Saskatoon 567 club as was presented earlier is hosting this 3 day event. As far as we know about it, Accommodation is filling fast so book early.. Limited space! Their club rep. Gary Cherneski was fairly vague on the event when asked in December at Norm’s place. It is slated for July 11-15^th/2019.. Hopefully more info will be brought to our attention on this event.

Bowties vs the World:

This is slated for August 24 2019, start seeking door prizes for this event & promoting the event!!!
