As a self funded, charitable organization the Crochet Club is mindful of unnecessary expense. We appreciate and value the offer of free meeting space at the Salvation Army Citadel and the Eastern Star Temple. There is no further affiliation with either organization other the use of the offered space.
Meetings are planned for the month of August 2024
The evening meeting will be held on Wednesday, August 28, 2024. The meeting will be held at the Salvation Army London Citadel located at 555 Springbank Drive – the corner of Springbank Drive and Wonderland Road. There are large office buildings right on the corner and the Citadel is located behind it. There are entrances off both Springbank Drive and Wonderland Road. The meeting is scheduled from 7:00 – 9:00 P.M.
The day meeting will be held on Thursday, August 29, 2024. The meeting will be held at the Eastern Star Temple, 800 Fanshawe Park Road East (between Adelaide and Highbury). The meeting is scheduled from 10:00 A.M. to 12:00 P.M.
Upcoming dates when Crochet Clubhouse , Victoria Professional Centre, 111 Waterloo St. will be open. A link to the sign up sheet is included in the monthly newsletter.
Thursday, August 15 from 10:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M.
Thursday, September 12 from 1:00 to 4:00 P.M.
Just a “heads up” – with all the construction happening in the area of the Clubhouse, you might run into some road closures. It appears they are keeping the driveway open at 111 Victoria Street, but it could be open from only one direction.
Attendees at the July meetings – evening 19; day – 22 – great attendance given that it’s summer vacation/cottage/trip time!
Blankets collected at the June meetings: Full 45; Lap 15; Baby 2
Blankets collected at the May meetings – Full 52; Lap 48; Baby 12
