WCA Pub Night

Outing Type → 

WCA Pub Night, Sat., Jan 29, 7pm
Come and join your friends for a social night reliving last summer's paddling adventures and planning those for this coming summer.

The proprietor of the Twisted Kilt has given us use of the upper level room gratis, so there is no cover charge, we will have our own bartender, and the selection of brews is impressive: http://www.thetwistedkilt.ca/ You can order food and non-alcoholic beverages from the restaurant downstairs as well.

There is a TV available and we will have a DVD player, so if you want to show some of those fantastic runs you made last summer, or that bear that came into your camp one night, bring them along and we will try to make you a star.

Since this is an open social night, it is open to members, their family and friends, and anyone else interested in talking about paddling, tripping, camping, and the great outdoors. Bring them along!

While this is a 'open' function, if you plan to come, please sign up on-line, to give an idea of numbers so I can advise the pub staff. But, on the other hand, feel free to come 'unannounced 'at the last minute if that is how it happens!
