Arlington

Oct 2

The next Arlington meeting for 2024 will be held on Wednesday, October 2.

There is no program, as this is the time for our Annual Club Picnic, to be held at the regular meeting place around 5-5:30pm. We will begin serving hot dogs around 6:00 P.M. Bring a side dish or dessert. The picnic will be followed by a brief business meeting.

Update: Ken Aldridge advises that the Bob Duncan Center will not be open until 6pm. So the restrooms won't be available until then either. Additionally, it may be that only the restrooms and the library will be accessible after 6pm. This will affect after-picnic meeting plans.

APS Books will be available at the meeting - this month's circuit books include:
US - 19th Century classics, Canada (mostly mint), Cuba (to 1960s), Asia, Memel, Romania (1950s to 1990s), Russia - (M/U, 1930s to 1950s), Ethiopia, India, and several other countries. Check it out !

Meeting

We will meet at our official gathering place: Bob Duncan Community Center in Arlington, located at 2800 South Center Street, 76014, in Vandergriff Park (MAPSCO 97A). The regular meeting begins at 7 pm; however, the room is usually available as of 6 pm.

Meet'N'Eat

Ordinarily when we have an in-person meeting, we also have a MEET'N'EAT at an area restaurant, prior to the meeting. The group usually gathers between 5:15 and 5:30 pm, and we try to finish by 6:45 pm.

Our usual MEET N' EAT is replaced by the annual Club Picnic.
