Firstly, we apologize for our long silence. Our volunteer team is very small and some of us were away while others were overworked.  

We have decided to organize a social evening where everyone can mix 'n' mingle and catch up over a pint - and discuss ways to revitalize our group.

Come prepared with your ideas and suggestions so that we can plan some exciting events and activities for the coming months.

Mark your calendars for June 12th 2008 at 6.30 pm at Duke of Devon. Please RSVP to vandygadia@hotmail.com so that we get our numbers right.

IMP : The event is free for everyone. Drinks are on us for all those who had  signed up for the Toronto Interacts annual premium membership in 2006 and 2007.  Please let us know if you qualify ,when you RSVP.

Warm Regards,

The Toronto Interacts team
