Smile Calgary Community September Breakfast

The Calgary, Didsbury and Red Deer Horizons Unlimited communities are having a breakfast get together, Sunday, September 20. If there is enough interest from north of Calgary we'll organise a restaurant to the north (Airdrie, Olds, Carstairs, Didsbury?) and if not we'll go to the usual place in Bragg Creek.

If you can make it please let me know so that I can reserve enough space.

It hasn't been an overwhelming response to the breakfast this time around. Aside from me and Audrey I think I have four people expressing an interest or ability to come out this Sunday. Should I try rescheduling?

I was planning to attend but if the turn-out is too small, rescheduling would be fine with me.

Your call Ekke.

Yes, very nice breakfast meeting Ekke. Thanks for organizing it.

Calvin, keep in touch and once you begin your ride in March, put me on your list for updates if you have a blog going.

Cheers,
Bill

New to Horizons Unlimited?

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
