Entertainment has been booked!

We are excited to announce the tentative bookings for our entertainment.  James Gordon (see banner) has generously agreed to donate his time to do a songwriting workshop during the day and play songs from his album "1 in 5" about mental illness in the evening.  See http://www.jamesgordon.ca/ for further information on this artist!




The band we have lined up for our gala night is "New York Minute", a Niagara- area based band who play rock, funk, disco, country, R & B classics and pop music.  They are sure to entertain us with a variety of great music!  See http://www.newyorkminute.ca/ for more on the band!
Stay posted for further updates on our planning progress!

Timelines Are Working Well!

It's been a while since our last post- but we have been working very hard at planning.  Each clubhouse (PAR North and South) are having regular meetings- we will begin posting updates after each one from here on out.
We have also created timelines that we have now posted in each clubhouse, which helps us keep track of all the tasks we need to be working on and when (and they're pretty nice to look at, too!)
Work is underway to finalize our registration packages, video/photographer to be selected and secure our entertainment and guest speakers.  So much work needs to be done that we have formed "working groups" for some of these items.
Our next meeting is scheduled for April 9th, which is devoted solely to registration packages.

Stay tuned for more info in the near future!!
