It’s A Knockout Postponement!!!!
All members should have received an email from Roy Killen earlier today about the postonement of our “It’s a Knockout” activity tonight at Valentine Bowling Club this evening. Unfortunately Greg Carruthers has contracted Covid and as he was in attendance along with others at Monday’s Coffee Catchup we thought it prudent and in the best interests of members to postpone tonight. So, a chance to stay at home this evening.
