Come celebrate the solstice which falls at 10:51 am on June 22. Come out, bring the family and enjoy some long awaited good weather, some good food and, most importantly, great company. This event will be partially catered but we would love everyone to pitch in with side dishes and desserts (can you ever have enough desserts?!?). We will also be collecting items for the Barrie Food Bank.

Please RSVP to Shawn for meeting location and details. shawn@cohumanists.ca

Happy Summer, everyone!
