JAN 29, SUN - 2:30pm - $$ - CANCELLED

• Ma & Pa’s Horse-Drawn Sleigh Rides - CANCELLED
  Well, I'm told that Mother Nature has plans for a warm, wet, and muddy Saturday this weekend.
  After consulting with the organizer for this event, we've decided to cancel the Sleigh Ride outing for lack of snow.
  Please pass the word to those who don't regularly check their email.
  If anyone wants to get a group together to go to the restaurant anyway, please feel free to organize that on your own.
  Our outdoor winter outings seem to lack winter weather.  
  (We had to cancel snow shoeing last year too.)
  See you all at the First Thursday Dinner, next week on Feb. 2nd.

*R=RESERVE WHEN ASKED!
There are times when we have to call ahead for a table; we require your help! When people don’t call but show up, those who have called are sometimes left without seats. So, take a second to call Steve & Arron if you think might come, or send a quick email to bears@clevelandbears.org, otherwise there may not be enough room for you with the group! (A couple extra seats is better than too few. Thanks!)

Hosts Wanted!
We’re always looking for people who want to host a potluck or get together. If you’re willing and have space, please email bears@clevelandbears.org !

Since some of our events are held at private homes, we ask that prospective members attend one of our public meetings or activities before inviting them into our homes. While we are trying to be a friendly and open organization, we hope that you understand the necessity for these precautions and hope to see you at one of our future public activities.

Joining is as simple as attending one of our public functions. There are no dues. The club is supported by the voluntary donations of its members. These funds are used to pay for newsletter and PO Box expenses.
