[KWPeace-groups] WR Nonviolence Day In The Park, Sat 10 Sept 2022

[Bob Jonkman]

Hi Dwyer: Good to hear from you!

I think we can use some of those funds for the kwpeace.ca domain name 
renewal coming up in October (was $37.29 in 2021) . I didn't know there 
were funds available, so I've been renewing the domain myself.

And perhaps we can donate to the Civic Hub to use the space for another 
Food Luck Meeting (like a Potluck, without the pot). Maybe once the 
weather gets cold again -- I'm not quite ready for indoor events yet.

My involvement in various KWPeace-related groups has been very low these 
last two years. I'm not sure I'll have much to discuss for group 
activities at a Food Luck Meeting.  How have the various member groups 
been coping with Covid restrictions? What do your event calendars look 
like for the next few months?

--Bob.
