It was a great evening at the Annual Meeting & Social. Dinner was yummy as always and we did a few administrative things as we typically do at these yearly meetings.

We want to convey a very heartfelt thank-you to both Randy Albon and David Pollack who have completed their terms as directors with the NHCC Board of Directors. Randy was one of the founding members of the NHCC, it’s inaugural President, and a constant supporter since the Club’s inception in 2010. I hope everyone will share in the recognition that without his inspiration and expertise in developing the Club from the ground up, there would simply have been no NHCC. David has been a dedicated and wise Treasurer who has kept us on track financially and advises us in aspects of board governance, all so we can do what we really want to do, which is ride our bikes! Although their official roles have ended, we sure hope to continue seeing them on bike rides, hikes and other club activities.

And with that, we subsequently elected three new board members to fill all vacancies in the Board. Please welcome your new directors, Roberto Almeida, Dennis Benson, and Shabbir Maju. We’re looking forward to working together with our three fabulous new directors and planning ahead for a great year ahead!

There will be another weekend hike while we wait for the snow to fly (then it’ll be time to break out the cross country skis and snow shoes!). The route wil be determined by those who show up, but plan to be out 1 1/2 to 2 hours and don’t forget your drink and snack.

The start time for the hike Thursday afternoon should have read 2:45

There is no shortage of trails to explore in the Northumberland Forest so we’ll check out part of the Oak Ridges Moraine trail that runs through it. We’ll be out for about 1 1/2 hours so we can get some social exercise and get home for dinner!

If you mailed in your payment for tonight’s event, we’ll have your ticket at the door for you

Also, there will be jerseys available for purchase! Now’s your chance to get a long-sleeved one for the warm weather, or pick one up for a Christmas gift, or just stock up:

sleeveless ($60), short sleeved ($65), and long-sleeved ($80)

It’s just days away and we need to let the fine folks at the Best Western know our final numbers today so they can prepare for Wednesday evening. It’s a lot of fun, and great food! If you are one of those last-minute planners you can still get one just by calling and letting us know you are in! Call Anita at 905-269-6815

It’s back to the Northumberland Forest on Sunday afternoon. The Beagle Club Trails will be closed to all activites except cross country skiing starting in December so we’ll get some more hikes in there beforehand, and it’s a good refresher for remembering the trails when the snow comes. Bring fluids and a snack. and once again we can figure out where we want to go once we meet. Plan to be out for a couple of hours or so, but if someone wants to hike a shorter distance, it’s possible to start with a loop that’ll bring us back to the lot to drop them off.
