PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE: The June meeting was at the Whistler's Grill (McNeil Room) 995 Broadview Ave., East York. Hosted by Roger Stanley of the Solar Group and was very enlightening. Roger and his adventurers took us to Guyana in a slide show. We flew, drove, floated and trekked into to back woods of this country and witnessed a special fishing encounter. Roger also explained the equipment he used on his trip. Artifices from the Amerindian Indian tribal villages were also displayed. Proceeds from these expeditions are being directed through Roger to improve the standards of life in the Indian environment in Guyana. A great job Roger, keep up the good work.
