November 27th - Sue Williams
An Adventure at Sea and The Journey Within

While in their early 50s, Sue Williams, without an adventure-seeking bone in her body, and her husband, David, without any real blue water experience, left their three sons and cast off from Hamilton Ontario in their 37 foot sailboat, and headed east. Destination the North Atlantic Ocean.
373 days later they returned home, having traveled 11,000 nautical miles, spent a total of 86 days at sea, and completed two transatlantic crossings.

Sue has written a memoir about their improbable adventure - some would say misadventure - on the high seas. Ready to Come About, her debut book, was published by Dundurn Press this past spring. Since its release, it has become a Dundurn bestseller and a 'recommended read' by the Globe and Mail.

December 11th - Christmas Party

Sandwiches and (soft) drinks will be provided. Please bring appetizers and Christmas treats to round out the table of fare.

And, of course, your best singing voice!

... to stimulate thought, interest and participation in activities at a time in life when it is easy to become complacent and self-centred.
