[Video11]

London (Canada) Pen Club Meeting

When: Saturday March 19, 2016
Where: William's on Wonderland, 3030 Wonderland Road South, London ON (https://goo.gl/maps/gv8EeyNwkLL2) from 9:00 am to 12:00 noon.
Theme: Green Pens and Inks to honour the First Day of Spring on Sunday March 20 and and St Patrick's Day on Thursday March 17

We've done Green as a Theme a number of times, in 2015, in 2014 (https://londonpenclub.wordpress.com/2014/03/19/lpc-goes-green-at-least-for-one-day/) and back in 2010 (https://londonpenclub.wordpress.com/2010/03/21/green-day-at-the-london-pen-club-photos/) but it always seems popular. Please join us at Williams on Wonderland from 9:00 to Noon (approx) on Saturday and bring along your green pens, green inks, green notebooks, green pencils, green pencil cases, green whatever you have and show it off. Of course our secondary theme is always New Acquisitions; but you don't have to have a new acquisition or a green pen to join us for the fun.

Best,

Rick
