This Friday's meeting will be held at the Woodstock High School in the Library with the exchange students.  
 
Weekend in Woodstock will commence Thursday with the arrival of the students late Thursday afternoon.  Drop point is Wayne's Lanes.  Garrett has sent out an outline of events and times and places for members to view.  Try and attend some if not all of the events.
 
 
Club report.  Last Friday's meeting was a successful field trip to the recently opened T and C Restaurant.  We were treated graciously with mounds of food by our hosts.  I spoke to the waitresses later and they were very happy to have had us there.  They were interested in our club, its activities, and where we usually met.  The speakers were very informative and made us aware of a new activity in the western part of our county.  The "Paddle the Kish" club is not only a paddling club but have taken on the project of cleaning out the river of obstructions.  I think there is a possibility of a club outing next summer to spend a day helping the paddling club with their project. Think about it.
 
Depending on what the groundhog sees this weekend, Spring can't be far away.  Keep those bird feeders full for now as we still have snow and cold weather.  But know that in another month the Great Horned owls will be sitting on eggs.
Another "first Friday social" is coming up.  Kudos to Laura for arranging some great meeting places for us.  The socials have brought us closer together as a club.  Great events.
