The following well rounded programs have been confirmed for the 2012 year. Be sure to pass the word and bring a friend.

This will be followed by our annual Christmas Social night for all club members and guests. Members are asked to bring a non-perishable item for the Kitchener-Waterloo Christmas Food Bank.
Treats and coffee will be provided by the club. No need for members to bring anything.
This will be our last meeting at the 404 Wing, as our meetings will be moving to our new location. Maps and directions to the St. John Ambulance facility will be available at this meeting.
December 14th Also don't forget the KWARC Christmas Lunch, 11:30am, King's Buffet (Toys'R'Us Plaza). Good Food and great company! Please let Jean, VE3CBQ at 519-584-2009 or Marg, VE3RE at 519-662-4587 or <margcassel at rogers dot com> know so they have an idea of the numbers coming. If you'd like to bring a prize for the draw it would be much appreciated. For those who aren't fond of Chinese food, the buffet also has a great salad bar and has roast beef, pizza and other North American favorites too.
