Basically this event is aiming to get as many new members as possible to attend. Here they will get to know the committee members and settle into the club.

Afterwards, we could wander around the city for a little bit if anyone is up for that, find a place to sit and chat some more, etc.

Cost: Whatever your meal is (on average, about $20 for dinner and drink)

We hope to see lots of the new members attending ^^ If you wish to attend, PM me or post your attendance here on the thread.
